Possible Causes
Hard water supply, no filtration, rapid freezing due to high thermostat setting
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Note: Cloudy ice is usually not a functional fault but a water quality issue.
Steps:
- Use filtered water: Fill the SMAD ice maker with filtered or bottled water with lower mineral content.
- Descale system: Perform a descaling cycle with a vinegar solution to remove existing mineral buildup from the evaporator and water paths.
- Adjust settings: If your model allows, select a larger cube size or normal mode to slow freezing slightly, which can improve clarity.
