 It is now possible to couple a regional or global NEMO configuration (without AGRIF) to the CICE sea-ice
-model by using \key{cice}.  The CICE code can be obtained from 
+model by using \key{cice}. By default, NEMO is set up to run with CICE version 5. For backwards compatability, \key{cice4} can be used in addition to \key{cice} to use CICE version 4. It is likely that this option will be removed at a later release of NEMO.  The CICE code can be obtained from 
 \href{http://oceans11.lanl.gov/trac/CICE/}{LANL} and the additional 'hadgem3' drivers will be required, 
 even with the latest code release.  Input grid files consistent with those used in NEMO will also be needed, 
 and CICE CPP keys \textbf{ORCA\_GRID}, \textbf{CICE\_IN\_NEMO} and \textbf{coupled} should be used (seek advice from UKMO 
-if necessary).  Currently the code is only designed to work when using the CORE forcing option for NEMO (with
-\textit{calc\_strair~=~true} and \textit{calc\_Tsfc~=~true} in the CICE name-list), or alternatively when NEMO 
-is coupled to the HadGAM3 atmosphere model (with \textit{calc\_strair~=~false} and \textit{calc\_Tsfc~=~false}).
+if necessary).  Currently the code is only designed to work in the following cases:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item when using the CORE forcing option for NEMO (with \textit{calc\_strair~=~true} and \textit{calc\_Tsfc~=~true} in the CICE name-list), 
+\item with the direct flux forcing option in which case the \ngn{namsbc\_cice} namelist should be added to the configuration namelist in order to specify input filenames to force CICE,
+\item when NEMO is coupled to the HadGAM3 atmosphere model (with \textit{calc\_strair~=~false} and \textit{calc\_Tsfc~=~false}).
+\end{itemize}
 The code is intended to be used with \np{nn\_fsbc} set to 1 (although coupling ocean and ice less frequently 
 should work, it is possible the calculation of some of the ocean-ice fluxes needs to be modified slightly - the
