Ice maker area or ice bin is heavily frosted; ice cubes clump together.

Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before defrosting heavy ice buildup.

• Inspect gaskets: Check the ice room door and main door gaskets for tears or gaps. Replace any damaged gaskets.
• Check ice chute door: Ensure the ice chute flap closes fully after dispensing. Replace the flap or spring if it hangs open.
• Defrost compartment: Remove the ice bin and allow the ice room to defrost completely. Use towels to catch water.
• Verify fan operation: Confirm the ice room fan runs to keep air circulating. Replace the fan motor if it is not operating.
