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.
