  If the Ice Full Indicator is illuminated but the Ice Container is empty, the issue might be due to several reasons: * The room temperature could be too low. Try removing the Ice Container, wait a few minutes, and then replace it before restarting the machine. * There could be ice blocking the sensor. Clean the Ice Container and restart the unit. Note: if the Ice Full Indicator remains on, the unit may need replacement. * The sensor might be defective. In this case, contact Customer Service.

  If the Low Water Indicator remains off despite low water levels, it could be due to: * Low water conductivity. Drain the unit and clean the Water Tank, especially the screw heads at the rear, as these detect the water level. Refill with water and restart. * A broken sensor. Contact Customer Service.
