A kink in the water line can reduce water flow from the water
dispenser and result in hollow or irregular shaped ice. Straighten
the water source line.
Flush and fill the water system. See "Water Dispenser."
The water pressure to the house determines the flow from the
dispenser. See "Water Supply Requirements."
A reverse osmosis water filtration system can decrease water
pressure. See "Water Supply Requirements."
Remove filter and operate dispenser. If water flow increases, the
water filter may be clogged or incorrectly installed. Replace filter
or reinstall it correctly.
