Step-by-Step Fix {#fix}

Check whether the machine is a cube, flaker, nugget, or dispenser model.
Clean first if maintenance is overdue — Scale causes many false fault patterns.
Inspect water supply, drain, and condenser condition.
Watch whether the fault appears in freeze, harvest, or dispense.
Use the model-specific guide once you know the stage of failure.
