Solutions

1. What do you run this sterilizer for? It is hard to give you exact reason, however it seems that you have ran this machine to sterilize some special material before.

Definitely it is impossible for the machine itself to generate special odour and make milky color. Also check your water supply.

If you used a cleaner, the resovoir should have been emptied and filled with fresh water and the rinse cycle run. After the rinse cycle, the resovoir needs to be changed one last time. Open windows if possible for fresh air.
