Samsung Fridge: How to turn ON/OFF Ice Maker
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- I thought I make this video to answer a number of questions on how to change the ice maker settings on the Samsung Fridge. The one I have in particular with the French door model that was purchased in 2019.
In order to change any of the ice makers, 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.
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)
(Paid links)
The filter can be purchased here:
Samsung Genuine DA97-17376B Refrigerator Water Filter, 1-Pack

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.

Thank you! I just bought a Samsung fridge with an ice maker, internal, no dispenser on the outside of the door. They didn't install the water line but the ice maker was still on and I thought it might cause damage to fridge or the ice maker itself, and couldn't figure out how to turn it off. Your video showed me exactly what to do, and now I have the ice maker turned off. I feel so much better now, as I was really worried! Thanks again!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I like your style and how you go back and repeat to make sure audience understand. You are an excellent instructor. Much appreciated.
Thanks for the feedback
Thank you for this video. We just purchase a new Samsung 28 cu. ft. Smart Side-by-Side Refrigerator in Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel and we could not get the control panel to work. We had no idea we had to unlock the panel. My wife says thank you.
Perfect!...Thank you,just what i needed,we got the exact ridge today but wasnt instructed on how to turn on the ice maker,this video did the trick,thank you again :)
Great video…short, to the point without a bunch of hoopla, and just what I needed to know! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks for this! No one else mentioned how to turn off the lock in order to be able to use the controls.
Thank you so much for this video, well explained and I can easily and properly work my fridge!!
Wow I’ve been looking for a video on this for days! Thank you!!!!
Thanks for educating the community and appreciate your volunteering and thanks to your team

Thanks
thank you !!!! I forgot how to turn on the ice maker and you help me with this video.
Thank you for this! I was getting so frustrated!
EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED. THANK YOU,
How do you turn off/on for inside icemaker
Thank you, for something like this I as a consumer had to look online where the Samsung's manual made little to no sense
Thanks so much! I was getting frustrated and then found your video.
Thank you so much
I couldn’t figure out how to get the buttons to work. You resolved the mystery! The allusive lock button.
The buttons on mine aren't lit up is this what was going on with yours? Because mine aren't lit up. How do you get them to turn on?
Man Thanks for this! It’s not only child proof, I tell you 😩🙄
LOL, you were not alone! Thank goodness for this video, right?! I couldn't figure it out either. Why I got no manual with my new fridge I have no idea!
Thanks for educating the community and appreciate your volunteering

Thank you!!!! New fridge, could I get get the ice maker to turn off, was terrified it was going to die . You saved our butts!
Me too! Mine has been on since they delivered it over a week ago! I was really in panic mode!
Thank you!! Read instructions 10 times and could not find how to do it!! My fridge was making noises due to lack of water. Home Depot said my ice maker and water dispenser was going to burn out due to lack of water. After seeing your video my brand new fridge stopped trying to pump water continuously. Thank you!!❤
You are welcome!
This was perfect thank you

Thank you!
Glad to help.
thanks , it helped us out
Thanks for your videos. We have Model RF27T5201SR and believe it or not there is NO light in the water dispenser! So if you're thinking about buying a Samsung refrigerator, get one with a light!
Thanks for sharing. I think they removed the light on many models probably to save $$$
Thank you so much your video really help me 😊👌👏👏👏👏
Happy to help

Please keep posting
Our pleasure! Thanks for the encouragement.
My savior.
Thanks
Welcome
Thank you so much. that was very helpful. my ice maker bin is jammed. dont know how to take out the bin.
There's a latch under the ice maker door for this model, you'll need to unlatch on the bottom to remove. If it's stuck, you'll need to unplug fridge to defrost before it.
Thanks, idk if this will help us conserve energy but my aunt just recently gave us this fidge after repairs and we dont have any use for ice maker function
Glad to help.
Finally a video on the model I have BUT how do I force defrost the ice maker from this model. I don’t have the buttons on the outside (except water, ice cubes/crush). ???
Did you figure out how to defrost it??
Thank you for the info, it was very helpful. My ice maker is leaking do u have a video on replacing it?
Not yet
This was helpful. But I am having issues with the buttons on the outside not changing to water from ice or vice versa. Do you have any suggestion for that?
Probably want to appliance technician look at that.
My side by side refrigerator is new. I try to put the icemaker on OFF since there is enough ice but it won't do it. I followed exactly what you did in the video. I don't have a dispenser on the door. When the icemaker is on there is a constant little noise. What should I do.
Recientemente compré una y está haciendo mucho sonido y no me agrada, creo que es eso, ty so much.
Thank you. But I have a question that I can not adjust the temperature in refrigerator and the freezer. It won’t let me do it. Can you please help me out/
I also made this video, maybe it will help.

Can you tell me how to defost the ice maker ?
Anyone know why the inner walls surrounding the interior are hot to touch? Just got this same model today
This was helpful. When I tried to turn off the ice maker by holding down the button, it does not cycle to turn off. Seems like I can make selections on the water/ice cycle but I can't turn off
the ice maker. I think it's frozen because no ice is dispensing and I can't remove the cover to the ice maker. Suggestions?
Probably need to unplug the fridge for it to un-frozen it.
Ok so i have the ice maker button but i dont have the water and ice thing on the left door do you have an idea where it makes the ice?
no ice without button and water esp.
After you first got your refrigerator how long did it take for it to start dispensing ice ?
It takes time at least 8 hours as I'm told. Always, make sure the water line is connected tight to the back of fridge and the spigot is turned ON. Check if the ice maker function is ON, let it run over night.
@@netman88 Thanks I appreciate your response.
@@connorcourtney Glad to help
I have the same fridge like yours but I don’t why my ice maker come out crushed iced now even on the cubed ice mold.
Probably the temperature setup is too low. This may cause this.
What about the settings on interior panel water/ice…i see your icon furthest left is illuminated. What are the other three for (cup with 2 cubes, cup with 3 cubes, and then the lock icon?
From left to right is water, cubed ice, crushed ice and lock.
How often should I clean/remove the ice bucket? I have the countertop model of the refrigerator in your video & it will be 12 months old in July. We have great water quality & only 2 adults using the fridge. Thank you for your very informative videos by the way!
I clean once a year
Thank you! Do you have a video on removing the ice bucket? Also I'm assuming will need to turn off icemaker to clean the ice bucket. Finally 1 more question, would you recommend turning off the icemaker if we are away from home for a period of many weeks?
Kenmore fridge has a choice of O or - symbols on icemaker, which is off and on? No wire arm involved.
I don't have a Kenmore but I googled the answer. 0 = off and 1=numbers (temperature) dial indicate refrigerant power. The higher the number goes the colder the fridge will maintain. Setting it to 5 will make your fridge the coldest.
How do a defrost to male it start making ice?
What is the symbol next to 0 degrees on the Freezer. Mine has the same symbol on. I am worried I may have to reset something.
Also, can you please do a video on Force Defrost. After 3 years my icemaker is jamming up with ice. I read online to do Force Defrost. Thank you. Your videos are very helpful.
You mean the symbol with the lightening bolt with a null on it? That's the peak demand off, leave it lit on so it won't turn off to save freezer energy but spoil the food. I'll research the force defrost. I never had to defrost. Thanks.
@@netman88 Thank you. My fridge is exactly 3 years old. Ice tray is jammed. I talked to Samsung. Out of warranty. They advised to unplug for 24 hours. And, they recommend it unplugged for 24 hours once a year to let the appliance “breathe”. I have never had this issues of owning different refrigerators over 50 years.
There is a class action lawsuit for the ice maker issue. Apparently, most common issue.
I have this fridge and the Ice maker seems to work but water isnt dispensed into it to actually have ice. If I put ice in the bucket it will dispense it but not create new ice. the water feature works as well but water doesnt pour into the ice tray for some reason
I'm not an expert on repairs. My guess is maybe the line is clogged and needs a defrost or the unit is bad.
Does this apply to a refrigerator with this on the front of door above the dispenser? I've tried holding it for three seconds (ice off) and it won't go back on.
Depends, did it say 3 secs on the others.
How do I stop bottom tray from making ice but I still want to be able to get ice from cup on outside of fridge
Good Question ???
How do I set the freezer temp to zero below, or what is the suggested temp for the freezer.
Unlock panel, change the freezer temp.
Anything I should do if I turn off the ice maker. Since it is winter, I wont use it for few months.
Just turn it off
Thankssss. It doesn't say anything about it in the manual!
I just got this fridge delivered yesterday
How do I raise the fridge temp.? 34 is to cold. I tired holding the button where it says for fridge for 3 sec nothing happens
Help please
Thank you for your troubleshooting my Samsung refrigerator front switch doesn’t change to on sign only off 😢
If it’s under warranty, probably want to call Samsung for repair.
Tengo una pregunta porque queda flasheando donde está el panel que nos mostraste, trate de volver empezar y queda flasheando el número 35 y donde tiene cero, que debo hacer? Espero que me pueda ayudar por favor , muchas gracias .
Si parpadea a 35 F, simplemente desbloquee el panel de control y cambie las temperaturas de nuevo a 35 F. Supongo que es la parte del refrigerador.
How long should it take to fill the bin, 24 hours?
Probably.
@@netman88 Takes a while, I just bought mine
how long do i need to turn the ice maker on after i turn it off .can you me please thanks
I don't recall seeing anything on the timeline. Best to recycled out the old ice once in a few months I guess.
I have a Samsung RF27T5241 & the ice maker in the freezer stopped working. I have replaced the filter & made sure it was at 0°. Still no ice. What else should I do?
This sucker turned a year old a month ago. Two weeks later no ice. No extended warranty.
Did you check if the water line is bent or not? Check Ice tray in freezer also? How's the water flow?
Turning on the water auto fill dispenser container is a little finicky
will it defrost? While turning off the ice maker?
It just stops making ice. It won't defrost.
I have a refrigerator just like this. My ice maker is working making ice, deepening water. ... however the fan is running continuously and then stops when I open up the refrigerator door. We have replaced the filter...unplugged the refrigerator and then defrosted it. Do you have any idea as to what this could be?
Anything blocking the vents inside the fridge?
@@netman88 no
My Model# RS 277T 5299SR/AA
My fridge makes a loud noise even when I turn it off like basketball or something when someone scores, can you help with that I don't have it connected to any water supply so I don't need it right now
Doesn't sound normal, better have a technician check it out. I could be a compressor or something else.
You can also turn the ice maker on by pressing the ice cube button to get ice dispersed and then push the lever for 5 seconds to eject ice and the ice maker light goes on automatically
Oh this makes sense! I’ve been turning it off. But for some reason it’ll come back on. Probably from me cleaning out the dispenser of solid ice etc.
I have the same exact fridge but my problem is with the selector on the outside of the door. The selected setting (water, ice, crushed ice) would light up when pressed. That stopped working and I can’t select between the 3 anymore. Any idea on how to fix this?
I’m not an expert on this but maybe try to unplug the fridge and plug back in 10 mins to see if it works. There maybe a hard reset but I don’t know how to do that on this model.
i'm having your same issue with the exact same model. I already tried unplugging and plugging back the fridge but it didnt work. The only way to change it from water to ice cubes or crushed cubes is from the inside panel. Damn fridge is not even 6 months old. Ridiculous.
I changed the filter and pressed the filter reset and everything worked again. Not sure why but it’s been working without issues.
@@josels1292 Oh wow. Now that i think about it, this issue occured a day after the filter red light appeared inside the panel and I haven't changed it yet. Thanks a bunch for the quick reply. I'm assuming it's safe to say that changing the filter fixes this issue.
@@ToonyBe Yes it should. Just make sure you reset it. Maybe you could remove and install the same filter now and reset. It should work. If it does just remember to order a new filter and replace it when you get it.
If the icemaker is off,will it stop producing ice also, climate is cold now so we dont use any ice,and I am afraid it will overflow the container
It shouldn’t over the container, it should trigger a stop if full
I have an issue with my ice maker making the cubes into long clumps
hmm, I wonder if you turn off the ice maker for a day or two and turn it back on would it be better?
I want to turn off the ice maker in the bottom freezer but keep the top one on the door working. How can I do that? The manual does not tell you how.
For this model in the video, I don't think there's a feature for turning off that.
