Samsung Ice and Freezer Features
What Makes Samsung Ice Maker Repairs Different

The ice maker has its own automatic defrost; Samsung tells owners not to defrost it themselves, and a sheet of ice over the ice maker or a stuck, frozen bucket calls for service. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
