Possible Causes
Low water level in reservoir, clogged water distributor, scaled evaporator surface, partially blocked inlet valve
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit and turn off water supply (if plumbed) before disassembly.
- Check water level: Ensure the reservoir is filled to the correct mark. Refill as needed.
- Clean water distributor: Remove the top water distribution tray and clean all holes with a soft brush and vinegar solution to restore even water flow.
- Descale evaporator: Gently clean the evaporator plate with a non-abrasive cloth and descaling solution approved for ice makers. Rinse thoroughly.
- Inspect inlet valve/filter: For plumbed models, clean the inlet filter screen and replace the inlet valve if water flow remains weak.
