TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE ICE HAS OFF-TASTE OR ODOR Check if... Then... The icemaker was recently installed. Discard first few batches of ice to avoid discolored or off-flavored ice. The ice has been stored for too long. Throw away old ice and make new supply. The food has not been wrapped tightly in either compartment. Rewrap foods since odors may migrate to the ice if food is not wrapped properly. The water supply contains minerals such as sulfur. A filter may need to be installed to eliminate taste and odor problems. The interior of refrigerator needs cleaning. See Care and Cleaning section. Ice storage bin needs cleaning. Empty and wash bin. Discard old cubes. THERE IS WATER IN THE DEFROST DRAIN PAN Check if... Then... The refrigerator is defrosting. The water will evaporate. It is normal for water to drip into the defrost pan. It is more humid than normal. Expect that the water in the defrost pan will take longer to evaporate. This is normal when it is hot or humid. THE REFRIGERATOR SEEMS TO MAKE TOO MUCH NOISE Check if... Then... The sounds may be normal for your refrigerator. Refer to the Understanding Sounds You May Hear section. THE ICEMAKER IS NOT PRODUCING ICE OR ICE CUBES ARE FREEZING TOO SLOWLY Check if... Then... The freezer temperature is cold enough to produce ice. Wait 24 hours after hook-up for ice production. See the Setting the Controls Section. Door left open. Check to see if something is holding the door open. CUBES PRODUCED BY ICEMAKER ARE TOO SMALL Check if... Then... Smaller cube size level is selected. Select larger cube size using cube size selector. Water shutoff valve connecting refrigerator to water line may be clogged. Call a plumber to clear the valve. THE DOORS ARE DIFFICULT TO OPEN Check if... The gaskets are dirty or sticky. The door is reopened within a short time after having been opened. Then... Clean gaskets and the surfaces that they touch. Rub a thin coat of appliance polish or kitchen wax on the gaskets after cleaning. When you open the door, warmer air enters the refrigerator. As the warm air cools, it can create a vacuum. If the door is hard to open, wait 5 minutes to allow the air pressure to equalize, then see if it opens more easily. 30
