Care and Cleaning

To keep your nuggest ice tasting fresh and your Opal
looking great, we recommend cleaning/sanitizing your
Opal at least 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.
