Possible Causes

High ambient humidity, Very cold internal surfaces with poor insulation, Lid frequently opened, Unit placed near steam sources

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Wipe away condensation to prevent water from reaching electrical outlets.

Steps:

  • Relocate: Move the unit away from kettles, cookers, or other steam sources.
  • Reduce humidity: Use the ice maker in a less humid room if possible.
  • Limit lid opening: Keep the lid closed as much as possible to reduce warm, moist air entering.

Some condensation is normal in humid environments, but heavy, constant condensation may indicate insulation issues that are not easily repairable.
