Ice tray

The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer

GB

 

drawers ensures greater cleanliness: the ice no longer comes

 

into contact with the food placed inside the freezer

 

compartment; furthermore, the dripping of the water during

 

filling is avoided (a lid to cover up the hole after filling with

 

water is also provided).

 

1.Pull out the tray by pushing it up.

Check that the tray is completely empty and fill it with water through the opening provided.

2.Take care not to exceed the level indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL). Excess water prevents the ice cubes from dispensing (if this happens, wait for the ice to melt and empty the tray).

3.Turn the tray 90°: due to the connected compartments each mould fills with water (see diagram).

4.Close the opening with the lid provided and put the tray back, placing the top part in the corresponding housing and allowing it to drop in again.

5.When the ice has formed (minimum time approximately 8 hours) knock the tray against a hard surface and wet the outside so that the ice cubes come loose and take them out through the opening.
