Ice cubes have a bad taste or odor, even though the ice maker is functioning normally.

Safety: Unplug the unit and close the water supply before cleaning.

• Replace water filter: If your Zanussi ice maker has an internal or external filter, replace it according to the recommended schedule or sooner if taste issues occur.
• Clean reservoir and bin: Empty the ice bin and discard old ice. Wash the bin and water reservoir with warm water and a food-safe sanitizer, then rinse thoroughly.
• Flush system: Run several complete ice cycles and discard the first batches of ice to flush the lines.
• Control external odors: Avoid storing strong-smelling chemicals or foods near the ice maker, as ice can absorb airborne odors.
