Description of the product features 1) Adjustable fridge shelves o The shelves may be placed in any of the guide slots within the interior of the appliance. They are protected from sliding out. o To remove a shelf: Take off all of the items that are stored on the shelf that you want to remove.
Using your Baumatic fridge freezer Before switching on o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, information contained Baumatic’s installation instructions. o After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply. This will allow any refrigerant gasses that may have been disturbed during the transportation process to settle.
Switching on the appliance and setting the thermostat o You switch on your appliance by connecting it to your mains supply and setting the thermostat. o The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside the fridge depending on what you have the control panel set to. o The marks on the control dial indicate temperature grades, NOT the degrees of temperature.
Arranging and storing food in the fridge section o Warm food or evaporating liquids should not be stored in your refrigerator, as this will increase the humidity inside of the appliance. o All foods should be wrapped or covered, this is particularly important if the food has a strong flavour.
o Milk bottles should have a cap on them and be stored on the bottle shelf that sits in the door. o Garlic, potatoes, onions and bananas should only be stored in a refrigerator IF they are kept in airtight containers.
o Do not allow fresh food to touch items that are already frozen. o Chill fresh food in the fridge before freezing if possible. Tips on freezing o Freezer bags, polythene wraps, aluminium foil (extra thick) and special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for storing frozen goods in.
o Do not buy packages of food that are covered with frost. This could indicate that the package has thawed at least once before. o Take care that your frozen food packages do not start to thaw before you place them in your freezer. This will shorten the length of time that you can safely store the food for.
Compressor noise o There will be an operating noise when the compressor is running. o After installation, the compressor may be noisier for a short period of time. Bubbling and burbling sound o This noise is emitted as the coolant flows through the pipework within the fridge freezer.
o The freezer compartment should operate at -15 to -18 degrees Celsius. The refrigerator should operate at around 3 to 4 degrees Celsius. o Allow food to sufficiently cool before putting it in the appliance (but don’t let it sit at room temperature for too long). o In the freezer compartment, food packages should be scattered and never grouped or stacked together until they are completely frozen.
o Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps. o After washing the appliance, wipe over the area that you have cleaned with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly. o When cleaning is complete, dry your hands and then reconnect the plug to your mains supply.
o Refit the light bulb cover and reconnect your appliance to the mains supply and turn on. The defrost drain hole o Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator section during operation. The defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.

o DO PLACE FOOD BACK FREEZER COMPARTMENT THAT HAS STARTED TO THAW. o Turn the appliance off by turning off the power supply to the fridge freezer. o Remove the drawers and shelves from the freezer section and leave the door to the freezer compartment open. You can place a bowl of warm water inside the freezer compartment to speed up the defrost process.
Installation IMPORTANT: Before installation and usage read all the instructions and make sure that the voltage (V) and the frequency (Hz) indicated on the rating plate are exactly the same as the voltage and frequency in your home. The rating plate can be found on the front left edge of the inside of the fridge section.
o When the connection is completed, no stray strands or cut wire should be present. The cord clamp must be secured over the outer sheath. Reversing the door swing o You can choose whether you want the doors of your appliance to open from the left or the right according to your kitchen design or personal preference.
