Ice appears cloudy or white instead of clear

Safety first: Unplug the unit before internal cleaning.

• Use filtered water: Install or replace a water filter compatible with your Maytag ice maker to reduce minerals.
• Descale evaporator: Run a cleaning cycle to remove scale from the evaporator plate.
• Check purge function: Ensure the unit is completing purge cycles; if not, the control board or valve may need service.
• Acceptable variation: Some cloudiness is normal with certain water supplies and does not indicate a malfunction.
