CARE AND
CLEANING
To keep your nugget ice tasting fresh and your Opal
looking great, we recommend cleaning/sanitizing your
Opal once per week.
To clean the exterior of the ice maker, unplug the
product, then use a soft cloth dampened with soapy
water to gently clean the exterior surfaces. Dry with a
soft cloth.
The exterior stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with commercially available stainless steel cleaner. Use
only a liquid cleaner free of grit and rub in the direction
of the brush lines with a damp, soft sponge. Do not use
appliance wax, polish, solvents, or chemicals on the
stainless steel. Do not use soap to clean the reservoir.
Use a soft cloth moistened with water.
WARNING
Chemical Exposure Hazard, when
cleaning with bleach, use bleach in a well ventilated area
and avoid mixing bleach with other household cleaners.
WARNING
Unplug the product before cleaning by
hand, and when not in use.
System Cleaning / Sanitizing Procedure
To clean Opal's internal components, complete the
following steps:
1. Unplug Opal.
2. Remove water filter (if present), and replace with the
reservoir's screened intake cap.
See Figure 1.
3. Drain Opal (see page 8 for detailed instructions).
4. Create a solution of five cups of water and one
teaspoon household bleach. Skip to page 9 for
further instructions on how to remove hard mineral
deposits.
5. Pour solution into water reservoir, up to the fill line
shown.
See figure 2.
6. Plug in Opal and hold the 'Clean' button for 3
seconds to initiate the cleaning process. See figure 3.
7. Water will begin circulating and the 'Cleaning'
indicator will light up on the left-hand side of the unit
to confirm the unit is now in cleaning process. See
figure 4. After three minutes the water will stop and
the 'Cleaning' indicator light will turn off.
NOTE:
Do not use soap to clean the water reservoir.
