OpenDNS has some good instructions here:

https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-us/articles/228008607-FIOS-Quantum-Gateway-G1100

You would put the SafeDNS IP addresses in the "Primary" and "Secondary" DNS Server box, and then click apply.

Your devices should then be using SafeDNS's servers. To test if this is working, go to https://dnsleaktest.com/, and run a test. This will indicate what DNS servers are being used on your connection.
