What a KitchenAid Technician Deals With

Keeping a KitchenAid Ice Maker and Freezer Running

• Vacuum the undercounter ice maker's condenser fins behind the lower access panel with the unit unplugged, since a clogged condenser reduces ice output. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Cleaning the Ice Maker
