Why is my IKEA STJARNSTATUS ice maker not making enough ice?
- J
  Jose KnightNov 26, 2025
  Several factors can cause this: * The water filter might be clogged. Replace the filter if water dispenses slower than normal, or if it's been 6 months or longer. * The water supply line could be kinked. Make sure the supply line isn't kinked when the refrigerator is pushed into place. * The saddle valve on the cold water pipe might be clogged. Turn off the household water line valve, remove the valve, clean it, and replace if necessary. * The freezer control might be set too warm (for freezer ice makers). Set the freezer control to a colder setting and allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize. * Low water pressure could be the issue (for well systems only).

What to do if my IKEA STJARNSTATUS Refrigerator dispenser won't dispense ice?

  If your IKEA Refrigerator's ice dispenser isn't working, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check if there's ice in the bin. If not, refer to the section on 'Ice maker is not making any ice'. Make sure the refrigerator doors are fully closed. Also, if the dispenser paddle was pressed for too long, the motor might have overheated. The motor overload protector will reset in about three minutes, after which ice dispensing should resume.

What to do if my IKEA STJARNSTATUS water has an odd taste or odor?

  If the water from your IKEA Refrigerator has an odd taste or odor, it could be because water hasn't been dispensed for a while, or the unit isn't properly connected to the cold water line. Try drawing and discarding 10-12 glasses of water to freshen the supply. Also, ensure the refrigerator is connected to the cold water line that supplies water to the kitchen faucet.

  This can happen for a few reasons: * The water filter isn't seated properly. Remove and reinstall the water filter, ensuring it clicks into place inside the housing. * The water filter is clogged. Replace the filter cartridge, making sure it clicks into place inside the housing. * The household water line valve isn't open. Open the household water line valve.

Why are my IKEA Refrigerator ice cubes freezing together?
- N
  nathan95Aug 30, 2025
  Ice cubes may freeze together in your IKEA Refrigerator for the following reasons: * Ice cubes are not being used frequently enough or there was an interruption of power for prolonged time. Remove the ice container and discard the ice. The ice maker will then produce a fresh supply. Use ice at least twice a week to keep the cubes separated. * Hollow ice cubes (shells of ice with water inside) break open in the bin and leak water onto existing ice. Replace the water filter. If the issue continues, check for a clogged saddle valve, water valve not fully open, or a kinked water supply line.

Why does water collect on the bottom side of my IKEA Refrigerator drawer cover?
- J
  joanfreySep 18, 2025
  It is not unusual to have moisture on the bottom side of the cover of your IKEA Refrigerator drawer, because vegetables contain and give off moisture. You can move the humidity control (on some models) to a lower setting.

  Your IKEA Refrigerator might not dispense water if the water filter isn't seated properly, the water filter is clogged, or the household water line valve isn't open. Try removing and reinstalling the water filter, ensuring it's correctly rotated and seated. Replace the filter cartridge if necessary. Also, check and open the household water line valve.

Why does moisture collect on my IKEA STJARNSTATUS walls inside?
- S
  Sandra WhiteSep 16, 2025
  Moisture can collect on the inside of your IKEA Refrigerator walls due to hot and humid weather or the flipper mullion. The rate of frost buildup and internal sweating increases in hot and humid conditions. Adjust the flipper mullion.

Why is my IKEA Refrigerator food freezing?
- D
  Darius DavisSep 7, 2025
  Food in your IKEA Refrigerator might be freezing because the temperature setting is too low, the temperature sensor is covered by food, or food is blocking the air ports. To fix this, increase the temperature setting. Also, allow space for air to flow to the sensor and between the air ports and the food.

Why is my IKEA STJARNSTATUS Refrigerator door not closing?
- B
  Barbara PerezSep 5, 2025
  An IKEA Refrigerator door might not close because it was closed too hard, causing the other door to open slightly, the refrigerator isn't level, or the refrigerator is touching a wall or cabinet. Try closing both doors gently. Also, ensure the floor is level and solid to properly support the refrigerator. If needed, contact a carpenter to correct a sagging or sloping floor.
