Is the ice maker switch in the OFF (right) position (on
some models)? Move ice maker switch to the ON (left)
position. See "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Is the water line shutoff valve to the refrigerator turned
on? Turn on the water valve. See "Connect Water Line to
Refrigerator" in the Installation Instructions.
Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice
been produced? Make sure your refrigerator has been
connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is
turned on. See "Connect Water Line to Refrigerator" in the
Installation Instructions.
Is an ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm?
For models with an interior ice bin, remove the ice from the
ejector arm with a plastic utensil. For models with an ice bin
located on the freezer door, access the ice maker by
depressing the ice sensor door on the upper left side of the
freezer interior. While depressing the sensor door, lift the ice
maker service door and remove the ice from the ejector with
a plastic utensil. See "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow three
to four days for an empty ice bin to completely fill, if no ice is
used during this time.
Are the controls set correctly? See "Using the Control(s)."
Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The
filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly. Check the filter
installation instructions to ensure that the filter was installed
correctly and is not clogged. If installation or clogging is not a
problem, call a technician or other qualified person.
NOTE: If not due to any of the above, there may be a problem
with the water line. Call for service.
Off-taste, odor or gray color in the ice
Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or
off-flavored ice? Discard the first few batches of ice.
Have the ice cubes been stored too long? Throw old ice
away and make a new supply.
Does the freezer and ice bin need to be cleaned? See
"Cleaning" or "Ice Maker and Storage Bin."
Has food in the freezer or refrigerator been wrapped
properly? Use airtight, moisture-proof packaging to help
prevent odor transfer to stored food.
Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter
may need to be installed to remove the minerals.
Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? Gray or
dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water filtration
system needs additional flushing. Run additional water
through the water dispenser to flush the water filtration
system more thoroughly (at least 2 to 3 gal. [8 to 12 L] or 6 to
7 minutes initially). Discard discolored ice.

The ice dispenser will not operate properly
Is the freezer door closed completely? Push the door firmly
shut. If it will not shut all the way, see "The doors will not
close completely" later in this section.
Is the ice bin installed correctly? For models with an interior
ice bin, push the ice bin in all the way. If the ice bin does not
go in all the way, it may not be put in straight. Pull it out and
try again. For models with an ice bin located on the freezer
door, the bin should sit level. To remove the bin, press the
release button on the right side of the bin and lift straight up.
Replace the bin in the door making sure it is properly aligned
and snapped securely into place. See "Ice Maker and
Storage Bin."
Has the wrong ice been added to the bin? Use only cubes
produced by the current ice maker. If other cubes have been
added, remove all cubes and check to see that none have
become stuck in the delivery chute.
Has the ice frozen in the ice bin? Shake the ice bin to
separate cubes. If cubes do not separate, empty bin and wait
24 hours for ice to restock.
Has the ice melted around the auger (metal spiral) in the
ice bin? Dump the ice cubes and clean the ice bin
completely. Allow 24 hours for the ice maker to restock. Do
not try to remove the melted ice with a sharp object. You
could damage the ice bin.
Is ice stuck in the delivery chute? Clear the ice from the
delivery chute with a plastic utensil. Do not use anything
sharp to remove the ice. You could cause damage.
Is the ice dispenser stalling while dispensing "crushed"
ice? Stop dispensing ice. Change the ice button from
"crushed" to "cubed." Depress the ice dispenser arm using a
sturdy glass. If cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the
button for "crushed" ice and begin dispensing again. See
"Water and Ice Dispensers."
Is there ice in the bin? See "The ice maker is not producing
ice" earlier in this section.
Has the dispenser arm been held in too long? Release
dispenser arm. Ice will stop dispensing when the arm is held
in too long. Wait three minutes for dispenser motor to reset
before using again. It is best to take large amounts of ice
directly from the ice bin, not through the dispenser.
Ice bin difficult to remove
Is the ice bin difficult to remove (on some models)? For
models with an ice bin located on the freezer door, select
"cubed" ice. Using a sturdy glass, quickly depress and
release the ice dispenser arm. Open the freezer door, depress
the release button on the ice bin and lift upward. See "Ice
Maker and Storage Bin."
The water dispenser will not operate properly
Has the water system not filled? The water system needs
to be filled the first time it is used. Use a sturdy container to
depress the water dispenser bar until the water begins to
flow. Flush the water system by dispensing and discarding
2 to 3 gal. (8 to 12 L) of water. Cleaning the system will take
approximately 6 to 7 minutes and will help clear air from the
line. Additional flushing may be required in some households.
See "Water and Ice Dispensers."
