Troubleshooting
Ice maker is not producing ice.
Check if the water reservoir is filled to the correct level. Ensure the unit is powered on and the ice-making cycle has started. Verify that the ambient temperature is within the operating range.
Ice cubes are small or irregular.
Ensure the water reservoir is adequately filled. Check if the selected cube size is appropriate. Extreme ambient temperatures can sometimes affect cube formation.
Unit is making unusual noises.
Some operational noise is normal, especially during the ice-making cycle. However, if the noise is loud or grinding, check for any obstructions or ensure the unit is on a level surface.
Self-cleaning function not working.
Ensure the unit is properly plugged in and powered on. Refer to the user manual for the correct procedure to initiate the self-cleaning cycle. Clean any visible debris from the water tank before starting.
