Frequently Asked Questions - TBFF37 Tricity Bendix

How do I set the temperature on my Tricity Bendix TBFF37?
The temperature is controlled by a single thermostat dial. Turn it to position 1 (least cold) to 6 (coldest). The intermediate position (3-4) is usually suitable for normal use. Turn to OFF (O) to switch off the appliance.
How do I defrost the freezer compartment?
For light frost (up to 4 mm), use the plastic scraper provided. For complete defrosting, turn the thermostat to OFF (O) or unplug, remove food, leave door open, and place a container under the scraper to collect water. Clean and dry thoroughly before restarting.
What should I do during a power failure?
Keep the door closed. The freezer will keep food frozen for several hours if full. If food begins to thaw, it must be used quickly and not refrozen. Cooked food that has thawed must not be refrozen.
How do I clean the refrigerator?
Unplug the appliance. Clean interior with warm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml per 0.5 L water). Rinse and dry. Never use detergents, abrasive powders, or perfumed products. Dust the condenser (black grill) at the back once or twice a year with a brush or vacuum.
How can I reverse the door opening direction?
The door can be reversed from right to left. Unscrew the upper pin and spacer, remove the door, unscrew the middle hinge, remove lower door, unscrew lower pin and refit on opposite side, then reassemble. Detailed instructions are in the manual.
Why is the compressor running continuously?
Check that the thermostat is set correctly (not too high). Ensure doors are closed properly and not opened frequently. Large quantities of warm food recently added can cause continuous running. Also check that air ventilation is not obstructed.
How much fresh food can I freeze in 24 hours?
Up to 4 kg of fresh food can be frozen within 24 hours. It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat when freezing fresh food.
What is the energy consumption of the TBFF37?
The average daily energy consumption is 1.101 kWh according to standard tests (EN 153). Actual consumption depends on usage, location, and settings.
How do I change the interior light bulb?
Switch off and unplug the appliance. Unscrew the light cover and pull it outward. Replace the old bulb with one of the same power (max power indicated on diffuser). Replace the cover and screw.
What should I do if the appliance is not cooling enough?
Check that the thermostat is set to a colder position. Ensure the door is closed properly and the door gasket is clean and intact. Verify that the condenser at the back is not dusty. If the problem persists, contact the Service Force Centre.

OPERATION

Before using

Remove all securing tapes. Wash inside the appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml to 0.5 litre of water).

Do not use soap or detergent as the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Setting the temperature

The temperature inside the refrigerator and the freezer is regulated by a single thermostat with 6 temperature positions and an "OFF" (O) position.

Position 1 = minimum coldness

Position 6 = maximum coldness

Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.

The intermediate position is usually the most suitable (3-4).

The thermostat setting can vary as the temperature inside the refrigeration compartment depends on the following factors:

- room temperature

- how often the door is opened

- how much food is stored

- position of the appliance

Tricity Bendix TBFF37 - Setting the temperature - 1

Important

During prolonged periods of abnormally hot weather, if the thermostat is set on too high a number, the cooling system may operate continuously and the fridge cooling plate may not defrost. Turning the knob to a lower number will cause the automatic defrosting to resume.

The freezer compartment

The four-star freezer compartment is suitable for storage of commercially frozen food and for freezing fresh foods.

Freezing fresh food

It is not necessary to adjust the thermostat setting when freezing fresh food.

In any 24 hours you can freeze up to 4 kn. of fresh

Pay careful attention not to exceed load limit stated on the side of the upper section (where applicable).

Caution

In the event of a power cut do not open the door. The food in the freezer will not be affected if the power cut is short and if the freezer is full. Should the food begin to thaw, it must be consumed quickly and must not be re-frozen.

DEFROSTED COOKED FOOD MUST NOT BE REFROZEN.

Frozen food storage

When first starting-up or after a period of use, before putting the products in the freezer compartment let the appliance run for at least two hours on the coldest setting, then turn the thermostat knob to the normal operation position.

Do not exceed the storage period indicated by the manufacturer.

Finally, do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than is absolutely necessary.

Tricity Bendix TBFF37 - Frozen food storage - 1

Important

Do not put carbonated liquids, (fizzy drinks etc.), in the freezer compartment.

Ice lollies, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer, can cause low temperature skin burns.

Do not remove items from the freezer if your hands are damp/wet, as this could cause skin abrasions or "frost/freezer burns".

Thawling

Frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the fridge or at room temperature depending on the time available. Small food items may even be cooked from frozen; in this case cooking will take longer.

Any frozen food which is allowed to thaw accidentally should either be eaten as soon as possible or thrown away. Alternatively, if the food is uncooked and has not been completely defrosted it can be cooked and then refrozen.

Meat, fish and fruit should be thawed in the refrigerator compartment and small pieces of meat can even be cooked while still frozen, but you must ensure that it is thoroughly cooked through.

Vegetables should be directly immersed in boiling water, ready-cooked dishes can be placed directly in the oven in their aluminium wrapping.

A microwave oven is particularly suitable for thawing any type of frozen or deep-frozen food: follow the oven instructions, particularly regarding the placement of aluminium wrapping or containers in the oven.

Defrosted cooked food must never be refrozen.

Making ice cubes

The appliance is provided with one or more trays for ice-cubes trays.

Fill the tray(s) 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand and place them in the freezer compartment.

To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight twist.

Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove the trays from the freezer.

Dual purpose meat box

The meat box can also be used as a salad crisper. The lid is reversible and when storing meat the 10 mm gap allows the meat to breathe.

By reversing the lid the box becomes airtight and can be used as a salad crisper.

Fresh food refrigeration

To obtain the best performance, do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator; do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour.

Do not cover the shelves with any protective material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which can obstruct the air circulation through them.

To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are some more useful hints:

Raw meat (beef, pork, lamb & poultry or chicken): wrap in polythene bags and place on top of the salad crispers.

Meat can only be stored safely in this way for one or two days at the most.

Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.

Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.

Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Normal Operating Sounds

- You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the cooling

praterevaporation of to the fixed freezer shelves.

- When the compressor is on, the refrigerator is being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.

• A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will hear a faint 'click' when the thermostat cuts in and out.

Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator have runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired.

Tricity Bendix TBFF37 - Movable shelves - 1

Positioning the door shelves

To permit storage of food packages of various sizes, the door shelves can be adjusted in height. To make these adjustments proceed as follows:

Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows until it comes off, then reposition as required.

Tricity Bendix TBFF37 - Positioning the door shelves - 1

HINTS AND TIPS

Food Storage

• To obtain the best results from your appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids which may evaporate, should be placed in the larger compartment.
- Keep the time between buying chilled food and placing it in your fridge as short as possible.
- Do not push food together too much, try to allow air to circulate around each item.
• Do not store uncovered.food.
- Remove suspect food from your refrigerator and clean, refer to 'Maintenance and Cleaning'.
- Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and labelled and used in date order to ensure that food is consumed at its best.
- Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it straight away. The use of an insulated container is advisable. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the freezer immediately.
• The symbols on the drawers show different types of frozen goods. The numbers indicate storage times in months for the appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or lower value of the indicated storage time is valid depends on the quality of the foods and pre-treating before freezing.
