rinsing sand tap water OK?

I got some Caribsea Aragonite sand. It says to rinse it prior to putting it in the tank. Is it OK to rinse it with tap water, or do I have to use RO/DI water? If I rinse it with tap water and let the sand dry before putting it in, will phosphates and other contaminants remain in the sand?
Thanks.
