Troubleshooting
Fridge or freezer is not cooling.

Water dispenser not working.
Check that the water line is connected correctly and that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the water filter is properly installed. If the water supply is fine, check for any ice build-up that might be blocking the dispenser.
Ice maker not producing ice.
Ensure the ice maker is turned on. Check that the water line is connected and the water supply is on. Check for any ice blockages. If the ice maker is still not working, consult the user manual for troubleshooting or contact customer support.
Excessive frost build-up in the freezer.
