- Children should not fill or install Opal Side Tank, as filled unit may be heavy.
- Make sure that Opal Nugget Ice Maker is unplugged when draining reservoir and installing Opal 

Side Tank.

- Ensure that Opal Side Tank is installed on a level surface that will be stable even when Opal Side 

Tank is full.

- Make sure the cap of the Side Tank remains clean during filling and operation. Hands should be 

washed and clean prior to opening and closing the cap.

- Remove and drain the Side Tank.
- If there is residual water in Opal Side Tank base unit, flip Opal Side Tank’s base to drain.
- Remove and wash Opal Side Tank’s cap and valve with dish soap and warm water as needed. Ensure 

the cap is clean after removing and re-installing by hand.

Tank will drain any water in either unit.

The side tank should be installed flush to the front of the Opal Nugget Ice maker so that it does not 
block the airflow vents on the Opal Nugget Ice maker. Opal Side Tank needs to sit on the same level 
surface as your Opal Nugget Ice Maker. Do not elevate Opal Side Tank, or your Opal may overflow.

Mix two quarts of water with two quarts of vinegar, 

OR

 use the Opal Cleaning Kit, available at 

FirstBuild.com. 
Clean any visible mineral buildup or deposits with this solution. If deposits are present in the tank, fill 
the tank with this solution and let soak. Be sure to drain and rinse the tank thoroughly after cleaning. 
Stubborn deposits may require more than one treatment.
