Possible Causes

High mineral content in water, Rapid freezing due to very low temperature, Air trapped in water line, No filtration

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No internal disassembly is required for this issue.

  • Check water source: If connected to a hard water supply, consider installing a water softener or high-quality filter.
  • Adjust temperature: Slightly raise the freezer/ice compartment temperature to slow freezing, which can improve clarity.
  • Flush line: Run several liters of water through the supply line to remove trapped air.
  • Install filter: Use a certified inline filter compatible with Miele ice makers to reduce minerals and impurities.

Note: Some cloudiness is normal and not a functional fault.
