Possible Causes
Dirty condenser coil, High ambient room temperature, Poor ventilation around cabinet, Partially scaled evaporator surface
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before cleaning.
Steps:
- 1. Clean condenser: Vacuum and brush the condenser fins thoroughly to restore heat transfer.
- 2. Improve ventilation: Ensure the unit has the clearances specified in the Blomberg installation guide and is not enclosed tightly in cabinetry.
- 3. Check room temperature: Move the unit or improve cooling if the room is consistently above the recommended range.
- 4. Descale evaporator: Run a cleaning cycle with an approved ice machine descaler to remove mineral buildup that insulates the evaporator.
