Hi there, Thanks so much for asking about this. According to page 26 of the user manual for this model (linked below) the "Ice Off" button, located on the far left of the control panel, will turn the ice maker off.

Once these steps are completed, if the ice maker is still freezing up, the unit will require service. There are a few options here we can take based on your warranty status.
