How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit and shut off water before inspecting for leaks.
Steps:
- Remove the ice bin and inspect the reservoir and surrounding area for standing water.
- Check all internal hoses and clamps for drips or signs of mineral tracks indicating a slow leak. Tighten clamps or replace hoses as needed.
- Inspect the reservoir for cracks or seams that are leaking. Replace the reservoir if damaged.
