What EE
actually means.

EE on a 36-inch Bertazzoni French door model points at the sensor that belongs to the ice maker. Bertazzoni keeps it apart from the freezer's own sensor, and the unit goes on cooling while it shows, though ice may be affected until the sensor is checked.

What to do when EE shows on the ice maker

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for EE on its ice makers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Leave the freezer drawer closed for a few hours so the ice maker area can settle at freezer temperature.

02

Switch the unit off at the breaker for a minute and back on to see whether EE clears.

03

If EE returns, book a visit; the sensor or its connection needs testing.

Still there?

It usually turns into ice maker control and sensor repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

EE is not the freezer compartment sensor, which Bertazzoni lists separately as E2. A reading problem at the ice maker leaves the freezer's own temperature control untouched.

Questions
about EE.

Can I clear EE myself?
Leave the freezer drawer closed for a few hours so the ice maker area can settle at freezer temperature. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Is EE on a Bertazzoni the same as a freezer temperature problem?
No. Bertazzoni gives the freezer compartment sensor its own code, E2, and EE belongs to the ice maker's sensor. Your frozen food is not what the code is about.
Why would a sensor code slow my Bertazzoni ice maker down?
Ice makers generally rely on a sensor reading to decide when a batch is frozen and ready to drop. Bertazzoni gives no more detail than the code itself, so a technician reads the sensor before blaming the rest of the ice maker.
Can I replace the EE sensor on a Bertazzoni French door model myself?
Bertazzoni gives owners no repair steps for EE, only a request to call for service. The sensor is inside the ice maker area of the freezer and has to be tested before it is changed, so book a visit.

Back to your everyday

Still showing EE?

Book with the code or the blink pattern written exactly as the ice maker shows it, the full model number, and whether there is any water on the floor — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
