Hansa Insufficient Water Fill / Improper Water Level

Ice cubes are too small, thin, or hollow, even though the machine runs without error codes.

Possible Causes

Partially clogged inlet valve screen, Low household water pressure, Incorrect water level sensor calibration, Scale in water distribution tray

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and close the water supply valve.

  • Clean inlet screen: Remove and rinse the mesh filter at the water inlet valve.
  • Check water pressure: Ensure household water pressure meets Hansa's minimum requirement. Avoid using self-piercing saddle valves.
  • Clean distribution tray: Remove the tray or spray bar above the evaporator and scrub away scale so water flows evenly across the surface.
  • Adjust water level (if adjustable): Some models allow water level adjustment via a screw or menu setting. Follow the service manual to set the correct level.
  • Test after adjustment: Run several cycles and inspect cube size; fine-tune if necessary.
