Avalon Bay AB-ICE26 Series Portable Ice Maker
The ice has a “plastic”
taste.
The unit’s interior may
need to be cleaned.
Add a tablespoon of
lemon juice or vinegar to
a full tank of water and
allow the ice maker to
cycle a few times.
The ice cubes have a
cloudy appearance.
There may be trace
minerals in your water
or ice is being
produced too quickly.
Ice cubes may develop
cloudiness when water is
frozen quickly. As ice
develops on the surface
of water, certain gases
can no longer remain
dissolved and begin to
surface as microscopic
bubbles. This cloudiness
is normal.
Unit is not draining
properly
The drain plug is stuck
inside the unit
Manually drain the unit
by emptying the water
through the top. Use a
thin, blunt object to
clear the drain hole of
the plastic plug from the
top of the unit. Warning,
do not use sharp objects
as these may damage
the plug and its ability to
seal.
