Tips On Saving Energy - Indesit TA 3 Installation And Use Manual

Ice tray
This new concept of ice tray is an exclusive Merloni patent.
The fact that they are situated on the inner door of the freezer
compartment ensures greater ergonomics and 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).
Instructions for use (Fig. 2)
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.

Tips on Saving Energy

- Install the Appliance Properly
In other words, away from sources of heat and direct sun-
light, in a well ventilated room complying with the minimum
distances indicated in the paragraph entitled, " Installation/
Ventilation."
- Use the Right Temperature Setting
A setting which is too cold increases energy consumption.
- Do not Overfill
To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely
within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper
air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.
- Close the Doors
Open your refrigerator as little as possible because each time
you do so you loose much of the cold air. To raise the tem-
perature to the proper level again, the motor must work for
a long time, consuming energy.
- Keep an Eye on the Seals
Keep the seals clean and make sure that they adhere well to
the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.
GB
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.

- No Hot Foods
A hot pot or pan placed in the refrigerator immediately raises
the temperature several degrees. Let hot cookware and food
cool to ambient temperature before placing them in the re-
frigerator.
- Defrost the Freezer
Check the thickness of the frost on the walls of the freezer
and immediately defrost it if the layer of frost is too thick.
