Turning on your Baumatic BF207 FRIDGE-FREEZER: PLEASE FAMILIARISE YOURSELF WITH THE DISPLAY PANEL AT THE TOP OF THE UNIT (ILLUSTRATED BELOW). YOU SWITCH ON YOUR APPLIANCE by PLUGGING IT IN & SETTING THE REGULATING DEVICE (Electronic Thermostat) inside the Fridge-Freezer near the top, at the right-hand side (see the Figure on Page 5): Lamp Cover Thermostat Knob Thermostat Dial Your Fridge-Freezer’s thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments.
USING your Baumatic BF207 FRIDGE-FREEZER: MID-SETTINGS: Use these settings for long-term storage of food in the freezer. HIGH SETTINGS: Use these settings to freeze fresh food in your freezer and to keep food extra cold in your refrigerator. NOTE: On maximum setting, your appliance will work harder to maintain this low temperature so after you reach this temperature, you should turn the knob to a milder setting (depending on long or short-term storage intentions).
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR FRIDGE-FREEZER Refrigerator Compartment: • 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.
ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR FRIDGE-FREEZER Freezer Compartment • Your freezer’s chief function is to allow you to store deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time, and to make ice cubes. • DO NOT put warm food into the freezer. • DO NOT put fresh or warmish food with frozen food side-by-side as the former can thaw the latter and cause spoilage. • While freezing fresh food (meat, fish, mincemeat, etc.), divide into bagged parts so you can access them separately.
NOTES ON USING YOUR FRIDGE-FREEZER ALWAYS Cover and wrap foods, especially if they are PUNGENT. • MAKING ICE CUBES: DO NOT place paper or plastic on the shelves which would block the flow of air through the grids. • • Fill each of the ice cube container’s cells ¾ full with water. • Place the container in the ice tray compartment shelf.
CLEANING / MAINTENANCE NOTE: Before attempting to clean your Fridge-Freezer, UNPLUG IT and make sure you do the following: 9 Remove the baskets and the ice-cube tray. 9 Leave the door open. 9 In order to collect the defrosted water, take out the bottom drawer and soak up the water using a sponge as shown in the figure pictured below. To accelerate the defrosting process, you can scrape off any frost that may have formed using the spatula included.
DEFROSTING YOUR REFRIGERATOR Defrosting occurs fully automatically in the refrigerator compartment during normal operation. The defrosted water collected by the evaporating tray evaporates automatically. NOTE: The evaporating tray and water drain hole (back of the refrigerator crisper shelf) should be cleaned periodically to prevent water from collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator instead of flowing out.
DEFROSTING YOUR FREEZER **** Generally, you should defrost your Freezer at least twice a year, like this: NOTE: You must defrost your freezer when there is more than 5mm of frost covering the shelves. Do not use sharp metal objects to scrape frost with (they could damage the fridge circuit irreparably). Use the plastic scraper provided. • Remove the food and wrap it in several layers of paper or newspaper and keep it in the refrigerator or in another cool place.
