Why does the ice from my Viking Refrigerator have an off-taste or odor?
New plumbing connections can cause discolored or off-flavored ice in your Viking Refrigerator. Discard the first three harvests of ice. If cubes are stored too long, throw them away and make a new supply. Ensure food is wrapped properly, and clean the freezer and ice bin. If the water contains minerals, a filter may be needed to remove them.
Why is my Viking Refrigerator ice maker not working or making ice slowly?
If your Viking Refrigerator's ice maker isn't working, first ensure the freezer is cold enough. It might take up to 24 hours to reach the correct temperature. Also, check if the on/off lever is in the OFF (up) position; lower it to the ON (down) position. If the freezer isn't cold enough, adjust the temperature controls and wait 24 hours.
Why does the motor in my Viking Refrigerator seem to run too long?
Your Viking Refrigerator motor may run longer than usual on hot days, if the room is too warm, after adding a large amount of food, or due to frequent door openings. This is normal.
