Possible Causes

Low water level in reservoir, Misadjusted ice thickness sensor, Restricted water inlet, High evaporator temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Disconnect power and water before adjustments.

Steps:

  • Check water level: Inspect the reservoir during fill. If low, clean or replace the water level sensor or float.
  • Adjust thickness: If your Arktic model has an ice thickness adjustment, increase the thickness slightly per the service label.
  • Inspect inlet: Clean the inlet screen on the water valve and replace any clogged filters.
  • Clean evaporator: Run a descaling cycle to remove mineral buildup that can affect heat transfer.
