How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off and unplug before cleaning sensors.
Steps:
- Clean sensor lenses: Wipe the ice full sensor windows with a soft cloth to remove frost and dirt.
- Check alignment: Ensure both sides of the infrared sensor are facing each other correctly and not loose.
- Use original basket: Make sure you are using the original Bomann ice basket; some aftermarket baskets may not block the sensor correctly.
If the unit continues to overfill, the sensor or control board may be faulty and should be replaced.
