TROUBLESHOOTING 43 ENGLISH Problem Icemaker is not making ice. Not dispensing water. Possible Causes Refrigerator was recently installed or icemaker recently connected. Icemaker not turned on. Solutions It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to reach the desired temperature and for the icemaker to begin making ice. Locate the icemaker on/off switch and confirm that it is in the ON (I) position. The ice detecting sensor is obstructed. Foreign substances or frost on the ice-detecting sensor can interrupt ice production. Make sure that the sensor area is clean at all times for proper operation. The refrigerator is not connected to a water supply or the supply shutoff valve is not turned on. Connect refrigerator to the water supply and turn the water shutoff valve fully open. Icemaker shutoff (arm or sensor) obstructed. If your icemaker is equipped with an ice shutoff arm, make sure that the arm moves freely. If your icemaker is equipped with the electronic ice shutoff sensor, make sure that there is a clear path between the two sensors. Reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water supply. New installation or water line recently connected. The dispenser panel is locked. The dispenser is not set for water dispensing. Refrigerator or freezer doors are not closed properly. Water filter has been recently removed or replaced. Tubing connecting refrigerator to house supply valve is kinked. The house water supply is not connected, the valve is not turned on fully, or the valve is clogged. Reverse osmosis filtration systems can reduce the water pressure below the minimum amount and result in icemaker issues. (Refer to the Water Pressure section.) Dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for approximately 5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminates from the system. Do not dispense the entire 2.5 gallon amount continuously. Depress and release the dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF. Press and hold the Lock button for three seconds to unlock the control panel and dispenser. The dispenser can be set for ice or water. Make certain that the control panel is set for the proper operation. Press the Water button on the control panel to dispense water. Water will not dispense if any of the refrigerator doors are left open. After the water filter is replaced, dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for approximately 5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminates from the system. Do not dispense the entire 2.5 gallon amount continuously. Depress and release the dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF. The tubing can kink when the refrigerator is moved during installation or cleaning resulting in reduced water flow. Straighten or repair the water supply line and arrange it to prevent future kinks. Connect refrigerator to the water supply and turn the water shutoff valve fully open. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a plumber.
