How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the ProfiCook ice maker before cleaning or moving it.
- Check room temperature: Ensure the unit is used within the specified ambient range (typically 10–32°C). Move it to a cooler room if necessary.
- Clean ventilation grilles: Remove dust and lint from all air inlets and outlets using a vacuum or brush.
- Verify fan operation: Briefly power on the unit and confirm that the rear fan spins freely and at normal speed.
- Allow continuous operation: Let the unit run for several hours; frequent on/off cycling can reduce output.
- If still slow: A partial refrigerant leak or weak compressor may be present, requiring professional service.
