Possible Solutions

Has the Measured Fill been calibrated?

Household water pressure may affect the accuracy of the Measured Fill feature. To ensure optimal performance of your water dispenser, you must first calibrate Measured Fill. For best results, calibration should be performed when water is not being used in the house. Also, the water system should be flushed before calibrating the Measured Fill.

Place a measuring cup on the dispenser tray in the center, in front of the water dispenser paddle.
Press and hold the Measured Fill button for 3 seconds.
The system enters calibration mode. The Calibration icon illuminates and stays lit while you calibrate the Measured Fill feature.
Press and release the water dispenser paddle to dispense water to the cup fill line in the measuring cup. If the cup overfills or water spills, empty the cup. Press Back to start the calibration procedure again.
When you have dispensed 1 cup of water correctly, press the Measured Fill button. This confirms the calibration.
When the calibration is confirmed, the icons will turn off. The display will return to the home screen

Does the water filter need to be replaced?

It is recommended that the Whirlpool water filter be replaced every 6 months, when the indicator light comes on, or as needed. Replacing your water filter regularly helps ensure a continuous supply of cleaner, fresher-tasting drinking water. Depending on your usage and water quality, it may need to be changed more frequently. A clogged or improperly installed water filter can reduce water flow to the ice maker and dispenser, potentially causing low ice production and slower water flow. Whirlpool recommends using everydrop® water filters. Find the right replacement filter for your refrigerator, and make the simple switch for clean water year-round.
