ICE & WATER
Possible Causes
Doors are opened often or for long
periods of time.
Doors are not closed completely.
The temperature setting for the
freezer is too warm.
Water filter has been exhausted.
Reverse osmosis filtration system
is used.
Low house water supply pressure.
Solutions
If the doors of the unit are opened often,
ambient air will warm the refrigerator
which will prevent the unit from
maintaining the set temperature. Lowering
the refrigerator temperature can help, as
well as not opening the doors as
frequently.
If the doors are not properly closed, ice
production will be affected. See the Doors
will not close completely or pop open
section in Parts & Features
Troubleshooting for more information.
The recommended temperature for the
freezer compartment for normal ice
production is 0°F. If the freezer
temperature is warmer, ice production will
be affected.
It is recommended that you replace the
water filter:
• Approximately every six months.
• When the water filter indicator turns on.
• When the water dispenser output
decreases.
• When the ice cubes are smaller than
normal.
Reverse osmosis filtration systems can
reduce the water pressure below the
minimum amount and result in icemaker
issues.
If the problem persists, it may be
necessary to contact a plumber.
The water pressure must be between 20
and 120 psi on models without a water
filter and between 40 and 120 psi on
models with a water filter.
If the problem persists, it may be
necessary to contact a plumber.
