1. Check water supply

Ensure the water line is connected and the valve is open. For models like HRS-682SWDU1 with built-in water dispensers, verify the 2.5L BPA-free tank is filled.

2. Inspect water filter

A clogged filter can block water flow. Many refrigerators have easily accessible filters. Replace if necessary. Models like HRS-682SWDU1 with digital control panels often have filter change indicators.

3. Clear ice blockage

Frozen water in the dispenser line can obstruct flow. Use Turbo Icing feature (available in models like HRS-682SWDU1) to quickly defrost any ice buildup in the system. Allow 24 hours for complete thawing.

4. Reset control board

For smart refrigerators like HRS-682SWDU1 with WiFi connectivity, try a system reset. Disconnect power for a few minutes, then reconnect. Use the app to check for any error codes or updates that may resolve dispenser issues.

5. Clean dispenser nozzle

Mineral deposits can clog the nozzle. On models with removable anti-bacterial gaskets (like HRS-682SWDU1), carefully remove and clean the dispenser area. Use a mixture of vinegar and water to dissolve any buildup.

6. Check water pressure

Low pressure can affect dispensing. Expert Inverter Technology in models like HRS-682SWDU1 helps maintain consistent pressure. If issues persist, inspect home water pressure and consider a booster pump if necessary.
