Using your Baumatic BF150 FRIDGE: Your BF150 UNDER-COUNTER FRIDGE WITH ICEBOX:
NOTE: BEFORE Using your BF150 FRIDGE: UPON DELIVERY: When your Fridge has been delivered, you will need to wait approximately 2 hours before turning it on. The fluid of the compressor installed in the appliance will need time to settle. PLEASE DO NOT PLUG IN ANY EARLIER THAN THIS! NOTE: THERE CAN BE AN ODOUR WHEN YOU FIRST SWITCH ON THE APPLIANCE. IT WILL VANISH WHEN THE UNIT STARTS COOLING. We recommend that you have the Fridge delivered near to where you plan to install it so that this fluid can settle.
USING your Baumatic BF150 FRIDGE: YOU SWITCH ON YOUR APPLIANCE by PLUGGING IT IN & SETTING THE THERMOSTAT inside the Fridge at the top righthand side (‘12’ in Key on Page 5). It looks like this: The thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating the thermostat knob from a low to a higher position, colder temperatures can be obtained. Refrigerator Thermostat setting : Low: Use this setting for short-term storage of food in the fridge – mild coldness.
USING your Baumatic BF150 Reminder: Allow the unit time to settle after delivery. If your plug and power socket are now behind the fridge and you still need to move the unit into place, be especially careful: Remember to leave a safe distance between the back of the fridge and the wall. o You switch your fridge OFF by turning the thermostat knob to position ‘0’. MAKING ICE CUBES Pour water into the Ice cube tray. Fill to ¾ full in each cell of the tray then place the tray in the freezer compartment.
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR FRIDGE • To reduce humidity and the consequent increase of frost, NEVER place liquids in unsealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporator. In time, the unit will need more frequent defrosting if too much humidity develops inside it. • NEVER place warm food inside the refrigerator. Warm food must be allowed to cool at room temperature.
NOTES ON USING YOUR FRIDGE ALWAYS Cover and wrap foods, especially if they are PUNGENT. • DO NOT place paper or plastic on the shelves which would block the flow of air through the grids. NOTE: At the maximum cold setting, with a high outside (ambient) temperature and well-stocked (full or nearly full) compartments, the Fridge’s operation may be continuous, leading to the formation of some frost on the evaporator.
CLEANING / MAINTENANCE NOTE: Before attempting to clean your Fridge, UNPLUG IT and make sure you do the following: WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU CLEAN AND MAINTAIN YOUR REFRIGERATOR ONCE A MONTH. 9 Pay particular attention to the sealing rubber bars of the doors. These need to be kept clean for hygienic reasons as well as to allow the door to close properly. 9 Leave the door open.
DEFROSTING Defrosting occurs fully automatically in the refrigerator compartment during normal operation. The defrosted water collected by the evaporating tray evaporates automatically. However, you will have to manually defrost the freezing compartment (icebox) when the frost and ice layer coating its interior is 3-5mm. You do this by: 1) Turning the thermostat knob to the STOP (0) position and disconnecting the power supply.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS – BF150 FRIDGE Ensure that you are going to be placing your fridge away from heat sources and in a well-ventilated position. This should be at least 50 cm from radiators, gas or coal stoves and 5 cm away from electric stoves. Do not place the appliance in the path of direct sunlight. 1) Make sure that the plug is accessible after positioning your fridge. 2) Keep a space of 15cm above your fridge and at least 10cm behind it.
REVERSING THE DOOR OPENING (swing of the door): Ensure there is sufficient space behind the cooling coils at the back of your Fridge – 12.7cm (5”) is ideal! 1) Remove the screws (6) which fix the steel plate (10). 2) Take away the steel plate (10) and lift the door. Put the door on a soft surface to keep it from getting scratched.
