Possible Causes

Partially clogged water inlet valve screen, Restricted water line to Liebherr unit, Clogged water filter, Low household water pressure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off water supply and unplug the appliance before disconnecting any water fittings.

  • Replace water filter: Install a new Liebherr filter if it is near or past its service life.
  • Inspect water line: Check for kinks or crushed sections in the supply line. Replace if damaged.
  • Clean inlet screen: Disconnect the line at the inlet valve and rinse the small mesh screen to remove sediment.
  • Check pressure: Ensure household water pressure is adequate. If not, have a plumber correct the issue.
  • Monitor new cubes: After adjustments, discard the next 1–2 batches of ice and check if cube size normalizes. If not, the inlet valve may be weak and require replacement.
