Installation.

WARNING: THE APPLIANCE SHOULD ONLY BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IN COMPLIANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CURRENT STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS.

Before Fitting:

Before connecting to the electricity supply leave the appliance to stand for 2 hours to allow the cooling system to settle.

Please read through this section before starting any work.

At the base of the kitchen unit intended for installing the appliance, there should be at least 200cm2 free space, for adequate air circulation.

Do not cover the air outlet grille at the top of the appliance.

Your Integrated Fridge Freezer is designed to fit into a tall housing as shown (fig 1). It is vitally important that the appliance is vented correctly.

Choosing a location:

Your Integrated Fridge Freezer should be fitted into a kitchen unit space where it is easy to use.

The power socket should be in a readily accessible position adjacent to the unit. Never place the appliance near a heat emitting device (eg. cooker, radiator, water heater or similar) and do not expose it to direct sunlight. In such a position your Fridge Freezer will have to work harder and will cost more to run and may be damaged by the heat. The appliance may be exposed to lower or higher temperatures but only for short periods of time and the temperature should never be lower than 5˚C.

The rear wall of the appliance gets warm during operation and water evaporates from the drain pan on the compressor. You must therefore provide adequate air circulation at the rear of the appliance.

BM10, BM21 specifications

Hotpoint has established a reputation for delivering reliable and innovative home appliances, and their BM10 and BM21 models of built-in microwaves further solidify this commitment. These two appliances bring modern design features and advanced technology to kitchens, ensuring cooking convenience and versatility.

The Hotpoint BM10 microwave offers a capacity of 17 liters, making it ideal for smaller kitchens or for individuals who value efficiency and space. With a sleek and contemporary design, the BM10 seamlessly integrates into any cabinetry, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your kitchen. Its user-friendly interface features intuitive controls, making it accessible for all users, regardless of cooking skill.

One standout feature of the BM10 is its combination cooking technology, which allows users to utilize both microwave and grill functions simultaneously. This results in evenly cooked meals that boast a delightful crispy texture on the outside, paired with tender juiciness on the inside. The microwave also comes equipped with an automatic cook function, which takes the guesswork out of meal preparation by selecting the optimal cooking times and power levels for various dishes.

On the other hand, the Hotpoint BM21 model offers a larger capacity of 25 liters, catering to families or those who often entertain guests. Like the BM10, the BM21 features a stylish built-in design and is equipped with modern touch controls for ease of use. This microwave also includes a grill function for those who enjoy perfectly browned dishes without the need for a conventional oven.

One exceptional technology featured in both models is the ‘Jet Defrost’ function. This innovation allows for rapid defrosting of frozen food items, ensuring that meal preparation is quick and efficient. Both the BM10 and BM21 also include a range of power levels, giving users precise control over cooking, reheating, and defrosting tasks.

Energy efficiency is another critical consideration in the design of both models. Hotpoint has ensured that these microwaves not only deliver high performance but also contribute to lower energy consumption, ultimately benefiting both users and the environment.

In summary, the Hotpoint BM10 and BM21 microwaves combine modern design with practical functionality. Their features, such as combination cooking technology, flexible power levels, and innovative defrosting capabilities, make them great additions to any kitchen. Whether you’re looking for a compact option or a larger capacity model, Hotpoint provides quality solutions tailored to varied cooking needs.
