Ice cubes
Fill the ice tray to max. 3/4 since water expands as it
freezes. Release the ice cubes by twisting the ice
tray.
If ice cubes are kept for a long time, they will dry
out and the taste is affected. Thus, throw away old
ice cubes and prepare new ones when needed.
Cold accumulator
The cold accumulator will keep the food cold for
longer after a power failure. The cold accumulator
will be most effective when placed at the front of the
fast-freezing tray. When freezing large amounts of
food/provisions, the accumulator moves to the
tray/space nearest to the lower freezing shelf.
When defrosting:
Place the cold accumulator on top of the frozen food
to keep it cold.
