Possible Causes

Blocked bin drain (if equipped), Warm air leaks around bin door, Ice maker located in hot environment, Ice full sensor causing long dwell time

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before inspecting the bin area.

Steps:

  • 1. Empty and dry bin: Remove all ice and wipe the bin dry.
  • 2. Check for drain holes: Some Vremi models have small drain channels under the bin. Clear any blockages with a cotton swab.
  • 3. Inspect bin fit: Ensure the ice basket is seated properly and the lid closes fully. Misalignment can let warm air in.
  • 4. Relocate unit: Move the ice maker away from direct sunlight or heat sources to reduce melt rate.

Note: Countertop ice makers are not freezers; ice will slowly melt in the bin. Frequent emptying into a freezer is recommended for long-term storage.
