I had answered you once already but found out some additional info. You must first turn the Door Alarm Off. Then you touch the Ice Maker to turn Off position. Then go back and reinitiate the Alarm at the bottom of the panel by holding it down for 3 seconds as printed on it. Now this is the new part-as soon as you use the Dispenser functions at all, & it doesn’t matter which one, it turns the Ice Maker back on. Same goes for the Dispenser being locked out the exact same way but as soon as you use that function it turns back on. Hope this really clarifies this for you. It is all in the book/manual that came with it under Control Panel. I guess most people don’t turn these functions off unless they are leaving the home. So once the refrigerator has the turned Off functions in use it figures you need it turned on to replace the ice used. Does make sense.

Hi Renee930

To turn off the ice maker you will have to first unlock the control lock (hold 3 seconds) located at the bottom of the panel where your settings are. Once unlocked you then control the setting buttons. 

I hope this helps

I believe You have to unlock it. There is a small panel inside the frig. Right side hip level.

You must first turn the door lock/alarm off at the bottom. Hold that button for 3 seconds and then touch the ice maker button to off. You must turn the door alarm button back on to lock it in. That should do it! Just tried it on mine and it worked. If not call 1-800-SAMSUNG.

Sorry for the confusion, Renee930! For this model, the button labelled "Ice Maker" functions as both the switch to turn the ice maker on/off as well as a reset button for the filter indicator. Holding this button down for 3 seconds will reset the filter indicator light, while tapping the button with turn the ice maker on/off. ^Jecca

Not that it's obvious but make sure the inside button pad is unlocked first. I had similar issue and realized I never unlocked the terminal first.
