Owner checklist

Start with the water: confirm the water supply is fully on and not blocked. Then examine the water line looking for kinked sections. Now the power reset. First, shut off the circuit breaker or unplug the unit, and give it one (1) minute. Next, flip the breaker back on or reconnect the plug in once more. After that, see that the cooling function has been active. Finally, give it one (1) minute and watch the display to make sure that the code stays away.

If the problem persists, service is the next step.
