Look into the chute and lift out any cube that is stuck there. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can I use a knife to free ice stuck behind an Electrolux dispenser? No. Electrolux warns never to use an ice pick or sharp tool, since it can damage the bin. Warm water loosens stuck ice safely. ### Why do Electrolux ice cubes fuse together in the bin? Electrolux notes that cubes freeze together when the dispenser is used rarely or after an outage of an hour or more. Shaking the bin loose or emptying it prevents DI SP. ### Where is the button that clears DI SP on an Electrolux? The CLEAR ALERTS button on the in-door control display resets active alarms. Clear the jam first, or the alarm returns. --- **[Read on the site: Electrolux door dispenser alarm: DI SP](https://icemakerrepair.center/error-codes/electrolux-di-sp/)** **[Book a visit with IceMakerRepair.center](https://icemakerrepair.center/schedule/)**
