Important Safety Information: Please Read this before installing & using.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

•NOTE - This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance of electrical current. You will be able to tell if it is because a non-grounded appliance will give off an electrical discharge. Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage due to nongrounding of appliance.

•DURING THE GUARANTEE PERIOD ONLY BAUMATIC SERVICE ENGINEERS OR AN AUTHORISED AGENT OF BAUMATIC SHOULD CARRY OUT REPAIRS ON THIS UNIT.

•DO NOT USE IF THE SUPPLY CORD IS DAMAGED. NEVER TAKE RISKS WITH FIRE!

ENSURE YOU CONNECT THIS APPLIANCE TO A SUPPLY RATED AT 220-240V (or 200-230V) and 50HZ.

NOTE: the supporting structure is constructed in panels of treated sheet steel, electrostatically enamelled to resist ill-treatment and to give long-lasting beauty and shine.

:Do not attempt to alter the specifications of this appliance. Doing so could damage the machine, cause injury & invalidate your warranty. DO NOT USE ADAPTERS/SHUNTS.

:Do not allow children to play with, near or inside this appliance.

:Do not pull on the power supply cable to free the plug from the wall!

:Do not attempt to use your appliance outdoors or any place where it is likely to come into contact with the elements.

:Do not pull out or insert the plug with wet hands.

:Before any cleaning or maintenance work, ensure that the appliance has been disconnected from the power supply.

:Never allow the back coils of the Appliance to come into contact with any wall surface. ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE SPACE INTO WHICH YOU ARE PLACING YOUR APPLIANCE IS FREE OF STORED ITEMS SUCH AS PAPERS OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS.

:NEVER block the VENTILATION OPENINGS OF THE

APPLIANCE EITHER INSIDE OR ON ITS EXTERIOR. IT IS VITAL TO KEEP YOUR APPLIANCE WELL VENTILATED SO THAT THERE IS PROPER AIR FLOW BETWEEN THE BOTTOM OF THE UNIT AND THE PLINTH / KICK PLATE ON WHICH IT IS SITTING.

:WARNING – DO NOT DAMAGE THE REFRIGERANT

CIRCUIT. AT THE END OF THE FUNCTIONAL LIFE OF THE EQUIPMENT (WHICH USES COOLING GAS R600o [ISOBUTANE]) AND INFLAMMABLE GAS INSIDE THE INSULATING FOAM, IT MUST BE PLACED IN SAFETY BEFORE SENDING IT FOR PROPER WASTE DISPOSAL.

Note: Before discarding an old refrigerator/freezer, switch off and disconnect it from the power supply. Cut off and render any plug useless.

CONFORMITY TO W.E.E.E. DIRECTIVE

Using your Baumatic BR15A LARDER-FRIDGE

Your BR15A Built-under

Larder-Fridge:

KEY

1 SHELF: The shelves may be placed in any of the guide slots within the interior of the appliance. They are protected from sliding out.

To remove a shelf, simply lift the front of the shelf and carefully pull it out of the grooves. Quickly perishable food should be stored at the back (the coldest part of your refrigerator).

2 DEFROST WATER OUTLET

The interior of the fridge is cooled with the cooling plate at the rear wall. Beneath this, there is a channel and an outlet for defrosted water. It is important that this channel is never clogged.

Use a plastic straw to clear away any dirt.

3 CRISPER TRAY & SERVING TRAY

The crisper tray at the bottom of your refrigerator is covered by the serving tray. This cover protects fruit and vegetables stored within from drying out.

Note that the door liner holds various shelves containing holders for storing eggs, cheese, butter and yoghourt, as well as smaller packages, tubes, cans, etc. The lower shelf is used for storing bottles.

THE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED.

NOTE: BEFORE Using your BR15A FRIDGE:

UPON DELIVERY:

When your Fridge has been delivered, you will need to wait approximately 8 hours before turning it on. The fluid of the compressor installed in the appliance will need time to settle. PLEASE DO NOT PLUG IN ANY EARLIER THAN THIS!

NOTE:

THERE CAN BE AN ODOUR WHEN YOU FIRST SWITCH ON THE APPLIANCE. IT WILL VANISH WHEN THE UNIT STARTS COOLING.

We recommend that you have the Fridge delivered near to where you plan to install it so that this fluid can settle.

SITUATING YOUR FRIDGE

CAUTION: DO NOT PLACE THE APPLIANCE NEAR HEAT SOURCES AND FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION ADVICE SHOWN ON PAGE 14.

FOR FULL INSTALLATION ADVICE, PLEASE SEE PAGE 14

MAKE A NOTE OF THE LOCATION FOR YOUR NEW FRIDGE. MAKE SURE THAT IT WILL FIT PROPERLY SO THAT:

1)The doors can open freely and completely.

2)You can access your food conveniently.

3)There is sufficient space at the back for the cooling coils to give off heat safely & that they do not touch the plug (see SAFETY SECTION).

NOTE: You can reverse the swing of the door to customise the unit to your location. Please see page 17 for details.

USING your Baumatic BR15A FRIDGE

YOU SWITCH ON YOUR APPLIANCE by

PLUGGING IT IN &

SETTING THE

THERMOSTAT inside the Fridge at the upper righthand side:

Your Fridge’s thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating the thermostat knob from a low to a higher number position, colder temperatures can be obtained.

Refrigerator Thermostat setting

Note: Turning the knob setting towards 7 will make all

the compartments of your fridge colder. Because the interior temperature may dip below 0°C, you should not leave your fridge on this setting for long periods.

Settings 3-5: Use these mid-settings for longer storage of food in the fridge = mid-coldness. Settings below this will give a milder coldness to the interior of the fridge.

0: This setting will make the fridge STOP (the cool system is deactivated), although the light will still function.

REMINDER: On the maximum setting, your fridge will work harder to maintain this low temperature. So, after you reach this temperature, you should turn the knob to a milder setting (depending on long or shortterm storage intentions).
