SAMSUNG FRIDGE: HOW TO GET ICE FROM ICE MAKER

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ค. 2024
  • I thought I make this video to answer a number of questions about the ice maker to address a number of questions including how the ice maker works to how long to get ice.
    Once you set up the fridge, you'll want to connect the water line to the fridge and turn on the water to the fridge. Make sure the water line is tight without leaks before pushing the fridge into the wall. If there are kinks in the waterline, the water pressure can be reduced. So check for those items while installing the fridge water line.
    It can take up to 24 hours to get ice but I found it was more like around 12 hours for us.
    In order to change any of the ice maker settings, you'll need to unlock the panel first. The panel is designed to be child-proof so the kid wouldn't be able to change the temperature and spoil the food in the fridge.
    If you don't plan to use the ice maker for long periods of time, it's best to empty out the ice from the ice maker box. I'll show you how to open the icebox in this video.
    I'll show how easy it is to unlock the panel and change the Ice Maker settings.
    The video was filmed on: Model # RF28R7201SR (stainless steel)

    The filter can be purchased here:
    Samsung Genuine DA97-17376B Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack
    amzn.to/30c4OXn
    Please consult your fridge manual for the exact filter to purchase before purchasing.
    Please help me with a thumbs up if this helped you so other people can see it also. If you like to leave a comment to give suggestions or help others.
    Thanks for watching in advance.

  • @johngardner1898
    @johngardner1898 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ice maker is jammed and will not dispense ice. Ice drawer will not come out even after pulling with considerable force in same manner as you did. Therefore I assume ice has also jammed the drawer, and I need to defrost the entire unit to remove the drawer and clear the jam. I "turned off" Ice maker using the control panel on the right side. Will that initiate a defrost of the Ice maker?

    • @netman88
      @netman88  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Turn it off to see if it's better the next day. The MAX drawer should come out when you unlatch the trigger on the bottom of the MAX drawer then pull it out.

      Did you get water first out of the water dispenser? If so, try to slide the ice box out (latch on the bottom of the unit) to see if the ice are stuck together. If not, see if the water line is clogged or there's a bent on the water line.
