Ice melts quickly in the basket and the bin area feels warm.

Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks.

Steps to reduce melting:

• Improve environment: Move the ice maker to a cooler room away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
• Ventilation: Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for heat dissipation.
• Transfer ice: Regularly move ice from the basket to a freezer for long-term storage; countertop bins are not freezers.
• Check bin lid: Make sure the lid closes properly and seals as designed to reduce warm air infiltration.
