5. Troubleshooting

• Ice Maker Not Producing Ice: Check if the 'ADD WATER' indicator is on. Ensure the water reservoir is filled to the MAX line. Verify the unit is powered on and the 'ON/OFF' button is not held down for self-cleaning.
• 'ICE FULL' Indicator On, But Basket Not Full: The infrared sensor might be obstructed or dirty. Clean the sensor area. Stir the ice in the basket to ensure it is evenly distributed.
• Ice Cubes are Too Small or Soft: Ensure the ambient temperature is not excessively high. Use cold water when filling the reservoir. Select the 'L' (large) ice cube size for thicker ice.
• Unusual Noise: Some operational noise is normal during ice production. If the noise is excessive or unusual, ensure the unit is on a stable, level surface and there are no obstructions.
