E01
Ice maker does not power on; display is dark, with no interior lights or fan operation.
Main Power Supply or Control Board Failure
E02
Ice maker powers on, but the compressor does not start; there is no cooling, though the fan may run.
Compressor Start Circuit or Inverter Failure
E03
Ice maker runs but does not produce ice; the evaporator plate is not getting cold enough.
Refrigeration System Underperformance or Low Charge
E04
Ice maker stops mid-cycle and displays a water-related error; no water is entering the machine.
Water Inlet Valve or Water Supply Failure
E05
Ice maker overfills with water; water spills into the bin or cabinet.
Water Level Sensing or Inlet Valve Stuck Open
E06
Ice maker stops and displays a drain or pump error; there is standing water in the sump or reservoir.
Drain Pump or Gravity Drain Obstruction
E07
Ice maker reports a temperature sensor error; the unit may shut down or produce very small or large cubes.
Evaporator or Cabinet Thermistor Failure
E08
Ice maker indicates a fan error, poor cooling, or a hot compressor compartment.
Condenser Fan Motor Failure
E09
Ice maker displays an ice level sensor error; the unit stops making ice even though the bin is empty.
Ice Bin Level Sensor or Infrared Beam Failure
E10
Ice maker shows a door or bin switch error; the unit will not start a cycle with the door closed.
Door Switch or Bin Switch Failure
E11
Ice maker indicates a harvest motor or ejector error; ice freezes but is not released.
Harvest Motor or Ejector Mechanism Failure
E12
Ice maker shows a defrost or de-ice error, heavy frost on the evaporator plate, cycles abort.
Defrost Heater or De-Ice Cycle Failure
E13
Ice maker displays a communication error between the user interface and the main control.
Control Board Communication Failure
E14
Ice maker shows a high temperature or overheat error; the unit shuts down to protect the compressor.
Overtemperature Protection or Condenser Overheating
E15
Ice maker shows a low temperature or freeze protection error, with water lines or the reservoir freezing solid.
Cabinet Temperature Control Failure
E16
Ice maker indicates a water quality or scale error, resulting in reduced ice output and cloudy cubes.
Scale Buildup and Water Quality Sensor Fault
E17
Ice maker shows a flow meter or water volume error, leading to inconsistent cube size.
Water Flow Meter or Fill Timing Fault
E18
Ice maker displays a sensor calibration or generic sensor error, affecting multiple functions.
Multiple Sensor Input Fault or Control Calibration Error
Symptom
Clicking noise from the compressor area; the compressor attempts to start but repeatedly shuts off.
Compressor Start Failure
Symptom
Control panel buttons unresponsive; display is on but no functions can be selected.
User Interface Keypad Failure
Symptom
Display is blank, but the interior light and compressor still run.
Display Module or Backlight Failure
Symptom
Door does not close properly or pops open, causing frost and poor ice quality.
Door Alignment or Gasket Failure
Symptom
Ice appears cloudy or white instead of clear.
Entrained Air or Mineral Content in Ice
Symptom
Ice cubes are too large or thick, which may cause them to jam in the ejector or bin.
Excessive Water Fill or Extended Freeze Cycle
Symptom
Ice cubes are too small or thin, melting quickly in drinks.
Insufficient Water Fill or Short Freeze Cycle
Symptom
Ice cubes clump together in the bin and do not dispense easily.
Ice Bridging and Poor Bin Ventilation
Symptom
Ice has an unpleasant taste or odor, even though the cubes appear clear.
Contaminated Water Path or Storage Bin
Symptom
Ice maker cabinet feels warm to the touch on the sides or top.
Normal Condenser Heat or Overheating Condition
Symptom
Ice maker is not making any ice at all, but the interior light and display work normally.
No Ice Production – General Functional Failure
Symptom
Ice maker is very noisy during operation, producing rattling or buzzing sounds.
Mechanical Vibration or Fan/Compressor Noise
Symptom
Ice maker leaking water onto the floor from underneath the unit.
External Water Leak – Hoses or Internal Tubing
Symptom
Ice maker makes ice very slowly, with production significantly below Grundig's rated capacity.
Reduced Ice Production – Thermal or Water Flow Issue
Symptom
Ice maker runs continuously and does not stop making ice, bin overfills.
Ice Level Detection Failure
Symptom
Ice maker stops shortly after starting; cycles abort without making ice.
Early Cycle Termination – Sensor or Protection Trigger
Symptom
Ice maker trips household circuit breaker or RCD when starting.
Electrical Short or Ground Fault
Symptom
Ice maker vibrates excessively, potentially moving or rattling against adjacent cabinetry.
Cabinet Vibration and Installation Issue
Symptom
Loud grinding or scraping noise during the ice harvest cycle.
Ejector or Harvest Gear Damage
Symptom
Unit frequently enters self-clean or flush mode without being commanded.
Control Logic or Sensor Misinterpretation
Symptom
Water pooling inside the ice bin or at the bottom of the appliance cabinet.
Internal Drainage Failure
