Ice maker was recently installed. Discard first few batches of ice to
avoid discolored or off-flavored ice.
• Food has not been wrapped tightly in either refrigerator or freezer
compartment. Rewrap foods since odors may migrate to the ice if food
is not wrapped properly.
• Discard ice and clean ice bucket or trays more frequently. Ice cubes
are porous and absorb odors easily.
• Water supply contains minerals such as sulfur. In some situations a
filter may need to be installed to eliminate taste and odor problems.
• Empty ice cube bucket or trays more frequently. If used infrequently,
ice cubes may stick together or shrink.
• Water pressure may be to low or high. Ice maker requires a water
pressure of 20-100 psi to function properly.
• Confirm ice maker arm is down. See "Automatic Ice Maker" section.

• Check for kinks in copper or plastic tubing. Remove kinks or replace
tubing
• Confirm freezer section is operating at proper temperature. Freezer
must be cold enough to produce ice. See 'Setting Controls" section.
• Check water pressure. Low water pressure causes valves to leak.
