Possible Causes

High mineral content in water, Rapid freezing due to low water temperature, Air bubbles from turbulent fill, Scale on evaporator surface

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before descaling.

  • Use filtered water: If possible, connect the Asko ice maker to a filtered or softened water supply to reduce minerals.
  • Descale evaporator: Follow Asko's descaling procedure using a manufacturer-approved descaler to remove mineral buildup from the evaporator plate.
  • Check fill flow: Ensure the water enters smoothly into the reservoir without splashing excessively, which can introduce air.
  • Accept normal variation: Some cloudiness is normal with hard water and does not indicate a malfunction.
