58 TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Possible Cause & Solution Ice is not dispensing. Doors are not closed completely. • Ice will not dispense if any of the refrigerator doors are left open. Infrequent use of the dispenser. • Infrequent use of the ice dispenser will cause the cubes to stick together over time, which will prevent them from properly dispensing. Check the ice bin for ice cubes clumping/ sticking together. If they are, break up the ice cubes to allow for proper operation. The delivery chute is clogged with frost or ice fragments. • Eliminate the frost or ice fragments by removing the ice bin and clearing the chute with a plastic utensil. Dispensing cubed ice can also help prevent frost or ice fragment buildup. The dispenser display is locked. • Press and hold the Lock button for three seconds to unlock the control panel and dispenser. Ice bin is empty. • It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to reach the desired temperature and for the icemaker to begin making ice. Make sure that the shutoff (arm/sensor) is not obstructed. Once the ice supply in the bin has been completely exhausted, it may take up to 90 minutes before additional ice is available, and approximately 24 hours to completely refill the bin. Craft Ice Problem Icemaker is not making ice. Icemaker is not making enough ice. Possible Cause & Solution Refrigerator was recently installed or icemaker recently connected. • The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 48 hours after the appliance is initially installed. The first batches of ice may not be round and clear. In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice about every 24 hours. • For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode which produces 2 batches every 24 hours. Water Problem Water is dispensing slowly. Possible Cause & Solution Water filter has been exhausted. • Replacing the water filter is recommended: - 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 system is used. • 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. Low house water supply pressure. • 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.

Ice bin is empty.
It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to reach the desired temperature and
for the icemaker to begin making ice. Make sure that the shutoff (arm/sensor) is not

Possible Cause & Solution
Icemaker is not
making ice.
Refrigerator was recently installed or icemaker recently connected.
The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 48 hours after the appliance is initially
installed. The first batches of ice may not be round and clear.
Icemaker is not
making enough ice.
In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice about every 24

For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode which produces 2 batches every 24 hours.
Problem
Possible Cause & Solution
Water is dispensing
slowly.
Water filter has been exhausted.
Replacing the water filter is recommended:
- 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 system is used.
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
