Making Ice with Opal
Once Opal has been cleaned/sanitised, move the ice maker to its desired location and complete the following steps.
1. R emove ice bin.
2. Fill reservoir with potable (safe to drink) water up to
the "Max Fill" line. Water hardness must be less than
12 grains per gallon. Do not fill reservoir with any
liquid except water. Using any liquid except potable
water is misuse and will void your warranty.
3. Plug the ice maker into a grounded outlet.
4. Touch the display button to start the ice maker. The
display will flash green to indicate the ice maker is
ON, then transition to the falling white display.
5. O pal will begin to produce ice in 15-30 minutes. It will
continue to make ice until the bin is full, or it runs out
of water. To continue making ice, just add more water.
