How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before removing internal parts.

  • Refill reservoir: Remove the ice basket and fill the reservoir to the MAX line with clean, potable water. Do not overfill.
  • Check drain plug: Ensure the rear or bottom drain plug is fully inserted and sealed so water does not leak out during operation.
  • Clean float/sensor: Locate the water level float and clean it with warm water and mild detergent to remove scale or slime that may cause sticking.
  • Reset unit: Plug the unit back in and press the power button to restart. If L1 persists, inspect the water level sensor wiring and consider replacing the sensor assembly.
