Side Tank Troubleshooting
IfwaterdoesnotflowfromtheSideTanktotheOpalIce
Maker:
There may be bubbles in the tube connecting the side
tanktotheOpalifthetubeisnotlyingflat.Tryadjusting
thetubetoallowthewatertoflow.Oncewaterstarts
flowingittypicallywillnotneedfurtheradjusting.
