■ Has the ice melted around the auger (metal spiral) in the
ice bin? Empty the ice container. Use warm water to melt the
ice if necessary.
■ Is the ice dispenser stalling while dispensing “crushed”
ice? Change the ice button from “crushed” to “cubed.” If
cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the button for
“crushed” ice and begin dispensing again.
■ Has the dispenser arm been held in too long? Ice will stop
dispensing when the arm is held in too long. Wait 3 minutes
for dispenser motor to reset before using again.

■ Freezer door closed completely? Close the door firmly. If it
does not close completely, see “The doors will not close
completely.”
■ Refrigerator connected to a water supply and the supply
shutoff valve turned on? Connect refrigerator to water
supply and turn water shutoff valve fully open.
