Questions and answers
I just bought a side by side refrigerator When I plug it in, nothing happens. Is there something I need to do first?
If your Midea MRS26D5AST side-by-side refrigerator does not turn on when plugged in, follow these steps:
1. Check Power Supply – Ensure the refrigerator is properly plugged into a functioning power outlet.
2. Verify Circuit Breaker – Check if the circuit breaker has tripped and reset it if necessary.
3. Inspect Power Cord – Make sure the power cord is not damaged or disconnected.
4. Confirm Proper Grounding – Ensure the refrigerator is correctly grounded as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Avoid Heat Sources – Make sure the refrigerator is not placed near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
6. Consult an Electrician – If unsure about the electrical connection, seek help from a qualified electrician.
If the issue persists, contact Midea customer support for further assistance.

The ice maker indicates its on but there is no ice being made. Water dispenser works but no ice.
The Midea MRS26D5AST ice maker may not be producing ice due to several possible reasons:
1. Water Shutoff Valve: The shutoff valve may not be fully open, preventing water from flowing to the ice maker.
2. Kinked Water Line: A kink in the water source line can reduce water flow. Straighten the water line if necessary.
3. Inadequate Water Pressure: Low water pressure in the house may affect the ice maker’s operation. Check the “Water Supply Requirements.”
4. Refrigerator Door Not Fully Closed: Ensure both refrigerator doors are completely closed, as an open door can prevent ice production.
5. Water Filter or Bypass Plug: The water filter or bypass plug may not be installed correctly. Verify proper installation.
6. Ice Blockage in Delivery Chute: Ice may be blocking the chute. Remove the ice bin, check for jams, and clear any ice using a plastic utensil.
7. Dirty Ice Bin and Chute: A dirty ice bin or delivery chute may cause jams. Clean them regularly with a warm, damp cloth and dry them thoroughly.
Checking and addressing these issues should help restore ice production.
