Switching On The Appliance And Setting The Thermostat - Baumatic BFB230SL Instruction Manual

Switching on the appliance and setting the thermostat

You switch on your appliance by connecting it to your mains supply
and setting the thermostat. The thermostat dial is located on the
control panel.
o The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside
the fridge freezer, depending on what number you have turned
the thermostat dial to. You may require a coin to turn the
thermostat dial.
o If you set the thermostat dial below position <1>, then the
appliance will not cool, but the internal light will still function.
o Position <1> will give you a higher temperature inside the fridge
freezer.
o Position <6> will give you a lower temperature inside the fridge
freezer.
o Ideally the thermostat should be set to a position between <3>
and <4>.
o The fridge section can maintain a temperature of between 4 – 6
degrees centigrade.
o The freezer section can cool down to -18°C and lower.
o IMPORTANT: The ambient temperature of the room,
the temperature of food and the amount of food that
has been placed in the fridge freezer and how often the
door is opened, will all affect the temperature being
maintained by the appliance.
o On the maximum setting (position <6>), your fridge freezer will
work harder to maintain a lower temperature. There is no need
to run your appliance on setting <6> for prolonged periods.
Unless you are freezing fresh food, you should have the
thermostat knob set to between <3> and <4>.
