Use of the appliance

oYour appliance is only designed to be used in the

Refrigerant

oYour appliance contains R600a refrigerant, which is a natural gas

that does not contain CFCs that can damage the environment.

However it is a flammable substance, therefore care should be

taken:

During the transportation and installation of the

appliance, make sure that the refrigeration pipework

does not get damaged.

If it does become damaged then sources of ignition

and open flames should be avoided. Also the room

that the appliance is situated in should be thoroughly

ventilated.

oDo not place any objects on top of the appliance,

as this may damage the table top.

oBefore cleaning the appliance or performing

maintenance work, ensure that the appliance has been

disconnected from your mains supply.

oNever allow the back coils of the appliance to come into contact

with the wall surface.

oAlways ensure that the location where you are installing your

appliance is free of stored items such as papers and other

flammable materials.

oNever block the ventilation openings of the appliance, either on

IMPORTANT: When you install your appliance it is important to bear

in mind its climatic rating.

In order to find out the climatic rating of your appliance, you should

check the rating plate. The rating plate is located on the front left edge

of the inside of the fridge. You will need to open the door of your

appliance to be able to find it.

The rating plate will indicate the ambient temperature range that your

appliance will function correctly within.

Description of the appliance

*There is also a half width door shelf and two egg racks, which are

not shown in the above drawing.

Description of the product features

1) Shelves

oThe shelf may be placed in any of the guide slots within the

interior of the appliance. It is protected from sliding out.

oTo remove the shelf: Take off all of the items that are stored on

the shelf, then lift the front of the shelf and carefully pull it out of

the grooves.

2) Defrost water outlet

oThe interior of the refrigerator is cooled by the cooling plate that

is on the rear wall. Beneath this there is a channel and an outlet

for the defrost water.

oIt is important that this channel never becomes clogged (see

“Defrosting the refrigerator compartment” for a detailed

explanation of how to keep the channel clear).

3) Crisper drawer and cover

oThe crisper drawer is in the bottom of your refrigerator and there

is a cover that goes over it.

oThe cover helps to prevent fruit and vegetables from drying out

prematurely.

4) Dairy shelf

oThe dairy shelf is suitable for storing eggs, cheese and yogurt.

As well as smaller packages, tubes, cans etc.

5) Bottle shelf

oThe lower shelf should be used for storing reasonably sized

bottles.

IMPORTANT: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT NONE OF THE SHELVES

THAT SIT IN THE DOOR ARE OVERLOADED, AS THIS WILL

DRASTICALLY REDUCE THEIR WORKING LIFE.

6) Freezer compartment

oA freezer section, with a net capacity of 19 litres.

Using your Baumatic fridge

Before switching on

oMake sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified

person, as per the information contained in Baumatic’s

installation instructions.

oAfter 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.

oThe outside of the appliance and the removable accessories

contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid

detergent and water.

oThe interior of the appliance should be cleaned

with a solution of sodium bicarbonate dissolved in

lukewarm water. The interior and accessories

should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning

process has been completed.

oThere can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It

will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.

During first use

oWhen you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run

continuously for approximately 24 hours or until the refrigerator

reaches a cool enough temperature.

oDuring this period of time, you should try not to open the door

frequently or place a large amount of food in the appliance.

oIf the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5

minutes before restarting the appliance with the thermostat or

connecting it to your mains supply.

Turning 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 control knob is located on

the right hand side of the fridge.

oThe thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside of

the fridge, depending on what number you have turned the

thermostat control knob to:-

oPosition <0> means that the appliance will not cool. However

the light will still function.

oPosition <1> will give you a higher temperature inside of the

fridge.

oPosition <7> will give you a lower temperature inside of the

fridge.

oIdeally the thermostat should be set to a position of between

<3> to <4>.

oYour refrigerator can maintain a temperature of

between 4 – 6 degrees centigrade.
