My counter top ice maker doesn’t have a “clean” button. do i just pour this inside where i would put water and start a cycle? my ice taste like metal.

Please follow these steps: 1. Drain your ice maker and then fill it with the cleaner that has been diluted (4 Ozs. per gallon). 2. Turn on the machine and let it circulate for about 10 minutes. 3. Drain the unit, filled it with plain water, and let it circulate for another 10 mins 4. Draining it out and wipe dry. Hope this helps!

Place the machine on clean after it has been unplugged for 1hr or greater. I clean the inside of the machine very thoughly with wet clean cloth/dish cloth and just add 2 tablespoons of cleaner to the dampened cloth. I turn the machine to clean(back of machine) For the Opal machine best results, Mix 4oz with 2qts of water for every 2 week cleaning. If you have not cleaned machine in 4 weeks, mix 8oz(1/2 bottle with 2qts water). Remember you must rinse solution through machine with 5cups water x 3 cycles. Then I clean the machine as stated in book, 1 tablespoon of bleach to 5 cups of water let the machine cycle on cleaning and then rinse with 5 cups of water for 4-5 complete cycles.

What if my ice maker does not have a cleaner button?

U put it in where the water goes and run a cycle of ice 2 or 3 times. (Do not use the ice cubes) Drain it wipe out with clean washcloth no soap needed and add clear water run for 2 or 3 cycles (throwing out the ice everytime) then u should be good to go for fresh ice hope this helps

Is this safe for the Opal nugget ice maker?

It should be safe for all ice makers.

Good Value

The item itself is great quality - very easy to use, cleans it very quickly and effectively (My machine in particular was a self-cleaning one which, when used in conjunction with this product, is excellent). One clean uses around 1/4th of the product - and at around 450 mls per bottle, it is a great size and equally great value for money

Works

I really didn't think this stuff would work because it's pretty mild but it did it cut a lot of the calcium and minerals out of my mini ice machine. I let it run for a whole day when I was working about 14 hours and it really cleaned it up pretty good it's running a little bit better needs a few more Cycles but definitely worth it and definitely works.
