Ice has a bad taste or odor; cloudy or discolored cubes

Safety: Unplug the unit before cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals that are not food-safe.

Steps:

• Empty and discard ice: Throw away all existing ice and drain the reservoir.
• Clean reservoir and bin: Wash the water reservoir, ice basket, and scoop with warm water and mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly.
• Descale system: Fill the reservoir with a mixture of 1 part white vinegar to 1 part water. Run a cleaning cycle if available, or run several ice cycles and discard the ice. Then flush with 2–3 full reservoirs of clean water.
• Use better water: Use filtered or bottled water to reduce minerals and odors.
