Ice trays
This new concept of ice trays is an exclusive Merloni patent.
The fact that they are situated on the top part of the freezer
drawers ensures greater ergonomics and cleanliness and
leaves more room free inside the drawers : 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).
Instructions for use (Fig. 5)
Fill up the tray with water via the special hole up to the level
indicated (MAX WATER LEVEL), taking care not to exceed
it: inserting more water than is necessary will lead to the
formation of ice which could obstruct the exit of the ice
cubes.
If you have used an excessive amount of water, you will
have to wait until the ice has melted, empty out the tray
and re-fill it with water.
Once you have filled the ice tray up with water through the
hole indicated, turn it by 90 °. Thanks to the connected
compartments, the water fills up the special shapes, after
which you can cover the hole up with the special cap and
place the ice tray in the inner door of the freezer
compartment.
Once the ice has formed, all you need to do is to knock the
tray against a hard surface so that the ice cubes come away
from their housing and come out of the same hole used to
fill the tray with water. To make it easier for the ice cubes to
come out, wet the outside of the tray.
WARNING: every time you fill up the ice tray with water ,
make sure that the same is completely empty and that there
are no traces of ice left inside it.
The minimum time required for ice to form well is
approximately 8 hours.

How to use the freezer compartment...
- For the preparation of food to be frozen, please con-
sult a specialized manual.
- Food that has been thawed, even partially, must not be re-
frozen: you must cook it in order to consume it (within 24
hours) or to freeze it once again.
- Fresh foods that you intend to freeze must not be placed
in contact with those that are already frozen or those that
have been fast-frozen. Rather, they must be placed on the
grid in the freezer compartment, in contact with the walls
of the compartment (back or side) if possible. Please keep in
mind that proper conservation of frozen foods depends on
the speed with which they are frozen.
- During the freezing process, avoid opening the door of the
freezer.
- The maximum daily quantity of food that can be frozen is
indicated on the rating plate located to the left of the veg-
etable crisper.
- In order to freeze and then thaw foods optimally, it is rec-
ommended that you divide food into small portions so that
they freeze quickly and uniformly. The packages should be
clearly marked with the content and the date they were
frozen.
- Do not open the freezer door in the event of a power
failure or malfunction. This precaution will slow the rise in
temperature within the compartment. If the door is not
opened, frozen and fast-frozen foods will remain in their
current state for approximately 9-14 hours.
- Do not place full bottles in the freezer: they could easily
burst because all liquids increase in volume when they freeze.
- If the ambient temperature remains below 14°C for an
extended period of time, the temperature needed for ex-
tended storage of food in the freezer will not be reached,
resulting in reduced storage life of the food.
