Chiller compartment
Instructions (Cont.)
Chiller
compartment
Drip tray
Fig.4
• The chiller compartment (Fig.4) is not a true freezer. It is designed for the production
of ice cubes and short-term storage (3-4 days at most) of some frozen foods.
The
temperature in this compartment does not get cold enough to freeze food
safely for long periods of time. It works best when the food is already frozen.
• Do not store bottled beverages in the chiller compartment as liquids may expand
when frozen causing the bottle to break and potentially damage the appliance.
• The door of the chiller compartment is susceptible to breaking due to excessive ice
build-up.
This part is not covered under your warranty. Be sure to defrost when
the ice reaches about 3–4mm in thickness (see page 14 for defrosting instructions).
Ice cube tray
• Fill the ice cube tray two thirds full with cold water, or with any liquid suitable for
freezing. The recommended thermostat setting for ice making is position [ 7 ].
• Wipe the bottom of the tray dry and place it on the bottom of the chiller
compartment for freezing.
• To get the ice cubes out of the tray, hold the tray under cold tap water for a second,
then place it over an ice bucket and twist slightly.
NOTE : Discard the first batch of ice cubes and clean and dry the ice cube tray
thoroughly after use.
• Reset the temperature control to your usual setting after ice cube production.
Drip tray
• The drip tray is designed to catch melting ice during defrosting. It slides into the
grooves underneath the chiller compartment. Empty any water out of the drip tray
periodically. Then wash and dry it before placing it back.
