Using your Baumatic fridge freezer
Before switching on
o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified
person, as per the information contained in Baumatic’s
installation instru ctions.
o After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the
appliance to your mains supply. T his means that any refrigerant
gasses that may have been disturbed during the transportation
process are allowed to settle.
o The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories
contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid
detergent and water.
o The interior of the appliance should be cleaned
with a solution o f sodium bicarbon ate dissolved in
lukewarm water. The interior and accessories
should be thoroughly dried, after the cleaning
process has been completed.
o There can be an odour when you first switch on the appl iance. It
will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.
Switching on the appliance and setting the thermostat
You switch on your appliance by connecting it to your mains supply
and setting the ther mostat. T he therm ostat dia l is lo cated i n the uppe r
centre of the fridge section.
o When you first switch on the appliance, the co mpressor will run
continuously for approximately 24 hours or until the fridge
freezer reaches a cool enough temperature.
o With dry hands, connect your appliance to your mains supply.
Set the thermostat control knob to position <7> for a 24 hour
period, before positioning it to the normal setting of <3>.
o During this period of time, you should try not to open the door
frequently or place a large amount of food within the appliance.
10
o If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5
minutes before restarting the appliance on the thermostat or
reconnecting it to your mains supply.
o The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside
the fridge freezer, depending on what number you have turned
the thermostat dial to.
o If you set the thermostat dial below position <1>, then the
appliance will not cool, but the internal light will still function.
o Position <1> will give you a higher temper ature inside t he fr idge
freezer.
o Position <7> will give you a lo wer temperature inside the fr idge
freezer.
o Ideally the thermostat should be set to position <3>.
o The fridge section can maintain a te mperature of between 4 – 6
degrees centigrade.
o The freeze r section can cool d ow n to -18°C and lower.
o IMPORTANT: The ambient temperature of the room,
the temperature of food and the amount of food that
has been placed in the fridge fre ezer and how often the
door is opened, will all affect the temperature being
maintained by the appliance.
o On the maximum s etting (position <7>), yo ur fridge freezer will
work harder to maintain a lower temperature and will increase
the energy usage. T here is no ne ed to r un your appl iance at this
setting for prolonged periods. Unless you are freezing fresh food,
you should have the thermostat knob set to <3>.
o IMPORTANT: Do not run the thermostat above position <4>,
for long periods of time otherw ise the defrost drainage ho le will
freeze.
o If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5
minutes before restarting the appliance on the thermostat or
reconnecting it to your mains supply.
11
Arranging and storing food in the fridge section
A = Cooked food (that has cooled)
B = Fruit and vegetables
C = Fish, meat and frozen foods
D = Bottles / jars
E = Butter and cheese
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. You should use
polythene bags or sheets, aluminium foil, wax paper. Liquids
should be stored in covered containers or bottles.
o To maximise the space inside of the fridge se ction, any ex ce ssive
packaging on the food should be removed.
12
o Quickly perishable food should be stored at the back of the
refrigerator, which is the coldest part of the appliance.
o No food items should be allowed to come into contact with the
back wall of the refri gerator.
o Make sure that you arrange food in such a way that the do or can
close completely. Particular attention should be given to bottles
that may protrude when placed on shelves inside the main
section of the refrigerator.
o Some organic solutions, such as the oils in lemon/orange peel
and acid in butter, can cause damage to the plastic parts
contained inside of the refrigerator.
o Do not open the refrigerator door too often or leave the door
open for long periods of time, as this will increase the
temperature inside o f the appliance and will in crease the energy
usage.
o Meat should be wrapped in poly thene bags and then placed on
the glass shelf abov e the vegetable drawer. (Meat should only
be stored in this manner for one or two days at the most).
o Cold dishes/cooked food should be covered and can be placed
on any shelf.
o Salad and vegetables should be c lea ned tho r o ugh ly a nd placed
in the salad drawers.
o Fruit should be cleaned thoroughly and placed in the salad
drawers.
o Cheese and butter should be placed in airtight containers, or
they can be wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags and
placed in the butter/cheese compartments. As much air as
possible should be removed from the bags.
o Milk bottles should have a cap on them and be stored on the
bottle shelves that sit in the door.
o Garlic, potatoes, onions and bananas should only be
stored in a refrigerator IF they are stored in airtight
containers.
13
The freezer compartment
The freezer sec tion is suitable for storing an d freezing food. T he table
below shows the recommended maximum storage time for frozen
fresh foods.
o The freezer section temperature must have already reached -18
degrees centigrade (or lower) before you attempt to store food
that is already frozen or freezing fresh food.
o The freezer section is only able to freeze a certain quantity of
food at one time. You should not attempt to freeze more than
6.5 kilograms of fresh food within a 24 hour period.
o Preferably the lower freezer drawers should be used when
freezing fresh food. Once the food is frozen, you can then
transfer the food to the upper freezer drawers.
o Warm food should be allowed to cool down before you attempt
to freeze it. If you place w arm food in the freezer section, then
the increased humidity will cause quicker ice formation and
increase the amount of power that the appliance uses.
o The guidance of the food manufacturer should be followed, in
regard to the maximum storage time.
o Thawed foods must not be frozen for a second time.
o If power is cut to your appliance, DO NOT open the do or to the
freezer section. Your freezer will store food safely for
approximately 7 hours.
o IMPORTANT: If the food has started to defrost before power is
restored, then DO NOT re-freeze the items. The food should be
used within a relatively short period of time.
14
Freezing fresh food
o Fresh food should be packed into airtight co ntainers
or packaging. This will help to make sure that the
food doesn’t dry out or lose its flavour. It will also
ensure that flavour does not transfer from other
foods.
o Do not allow fresh food to touch items
that are already frozen.
o After 24 hours you should check that the fresh food is
satisfactorily fro z e n.
Tips on freezing
o Freezer bags, polythen e wraps, aluminium foil (extra th ick) and
special cans for frozen foods are suitable packaging for storing
frozen goods in.
o Tape, rubber bands or plastic clips are
suitable for sealing bags and wrappings.
o Before sealing a suitable bag, you should
compress the air out of it, as this will help
the food to freeze more easily.
o Flat packages freeze more easily.
o If you are freezing liquid, then do not fi ll the
container to the brim. Liquids will expand
when being frozen.
o Do not place bottles (glass or tin)
containing liquids (especially sparkling
liquids) into the freezer as they could
cause the bottle to burst during
freezing.
15
Storing commercially frozen food
o The storage time and recommended temperature for storing
commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging.
o Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for storage and
use of frozen food.
o When shopping, be careful to choose food which is adequately
packed and is provided with complete storage instructions. It
should have been stored in a freezer where the temperature
does not rise above -18°C.
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.
Defrosting frozen food
o Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be used as soon as
possible.
o Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy the micro
organisms which rapid ly ac tiva te the mse lves after defr ostin g an d
make foods perishable.
o Partial defrosting reduc es the nu tritio nal value of food, e spe cially
fruits, vegetables and readymade meals.
Using the twist ice maker
16
o The twist ice maker has to be ma nually filled with water. To do
this, pull out the section with the 3 dials on it (shown in the
picture on the previ ous page) and the n fill it wi th cold, dri nkable
water.
o Once the water has formed into ice cubes, you should the n turn
any of the 3 dials to deposit ice into the ice cube storage section
below.
o Once ice has been deposited, you can then refill the twist ice
maker with water.
o You should clean the ice cube storage case regularly using warm
water. You should dry the ice cube storage section thoroughly.
o If you are not going to use the ice cubes contained in the ice
cube storage section for a long period of time, then you should
clear the remaining ice cubes.
Normal operating noises
Ice cracking noise
o Can be heard during the automatic defrosting process.
o Can be caused by expansion and contraction within the fridge
freezer.
Short cracking noise
o Can be heard when the thermostat tur ns the compressor on and
off.
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 coo lant flows through the pipework
within the fridge freezer.
Water flowing sound
o This is caused by wate r flowing into the e vaporating tray durin g
the defrosting process and ca n be heard whils t the fridge fre ezer
is defrosting.
17
Saving energy when using your fridge-freezer
Installing:
o Install the appliance in a cool position. If it is placed in direct
sunlight or next to an oven or other heat source, the energy
consumption can increase substantially.
o Ensure the appliance is installed with the correct ventilation
requirements. Restricting ventilation can increase the energy
consumption by 15%.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
o Occasionally clean the condenser coils (if present) at the back of
the appliance to maintain a high performance level.
o Clean the door gasket with warm water or a neutral detergent
that leaves no residue. A tight-sealing door gasket is critical to
the efficiency of your appliance.
Usage:
o Do not open the door repeatedly or more frequently than you
have to.
o Do not set the thermostat too low. A change of just one degree
can effect the energy consumption by 5%. Use a thermometer to
check the temperature.
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 compartmen t, food packages should be scattered
and never grouped or stacked together until they are completely
frozen.
o If you are going away for a long period of time, turn off the
appliance, empty and clean it and leave the door ajar.
o If you have a second appliance that is not used, make sure that
it is stored with the power off and the door left ajar until it is
actually required.
18
Disposing:
o If you're going to throw out you r old fridge, see if there's a
chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) recycler in your a rea. The
government department which looks after the environment in
your area may be able to help you.
Cleaning and maintenance
WARNING: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR
APPLIANCE IS DISCONNECTED FROM
YOUR MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN IT.
o Do not clean the appliance by po uring water onto it
or spraying water over it.
o The refrigerator and freezer compartment should be
cleaned periodically, using a solution of bicarbonate
of soda and lukewarm water.
o Clean the accessories separately with soap and water.
Do not clean them in a dishwasher.
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.
IMPORTANT: Before attempting any of the c leaning s teps
shown above, you should remove all items from the
shelves and compartments that you are cleaning.
19
The defrost drain hole
o Defrosting occurs automatically in
the refrigerator section during
operation. The defrost water is
collected by the evaporating tray
on the rear interior wall of the
appliance and evaporates
automatically.
o The drain hole should be cleaned
periodically with the drain hole
cleaner. This will prevent water
from collecting in the bottom of
the refrigerator, instead of flowing
down the defrost drainage
channel and drain hole.
o IMPORTANT: Please note that the drain hole cle aner should not
be left in position permanently. Otherwise this may prevent the
defrost water from entering the drain hole.
o You can also pour a small amount of wa ter down the drain hole
to clean the defrost drainage channel.
o You should be careful to make sure that food packages do not
touch the rear wall of the appliance, as this can interrupt the
automatic defrosting process and deflect water into the base of
the refrigerator section.
o Use a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water to
clean the evaporating tray.
o IMPORTANT: It is normal to get some ice droplets forming on
the back wall of the ap plia nc e . T he fo rmatio n o f ic e dr o plets does
not indicate an appliance fault.
20
Defrosting the freezer compartment
Over a period of time or if for example the door is left open for a
prolonged period of time or the door gasket is not sealing correctly,
then you could get ice building in the freezer section. If this occurs,
then you should follow the steps below.
o Whilst defrosting the appliance, the food should be removed
from the compartment and wrapped in several layers of paper
and stored in a cool place. The foods rise in temperature will
shorten its storage life and therefore the food should be used
within a relatively short period of time.
o DO NOT PLACE FOOD BACK IN THE FREEZER SECTION
THAT HAS STARTED TO THAW.
o Set the thermostat knob to position <0> and disconnect the
appliance from your mains supply.
o Remove the drawers from the freezer section and leave the door
to the freezer compartment o pen. You can place a bow l of warm
water inside the freezer compartment to speed up the defrost
process.
o You can use a sponge to mop up the defrost wate r that will run
into the bottom of the freezer section.
o IMPORTANT: You should place so me old towels on the flooring
that is immediately in front of the appliance. In case any defrost
water comes out of the freezer section and onto the floor.
o Once all the ice that has built up has melted, then the inside of
the freezer section should be dried thoroughly. Failur e to do this
will result in immediate ice build when the appliance is turned
back on.
o With dry hands, reconnect your appliance to your mains s upply.
Set the thermostat knob to position <7> for a 24 hour period,
before returning it to the normal setting of <3>.
o You should not attempt to freeze fresh food inside the freezer
section until this 24 hour time period has elapsed.
o Do not defrost the appliance with other electrical devices
(e.g. hair dryer). Do not use sharp metal objects to
remove the ice on the freez er, as t his co uld caus e dama ge
to the refrigerant system.
21

checklist below.
My fridge freezer does not appear to be working/there is
no power to my appliance.
o Check that the plug is fully inserted into the power socket.
o Check that there is power to your mains supply (e.g. that the re
hasn’t been a power cut or that the fuse hasn’t blown).
o Check that your mains supply voltage, corresponds to the
voltage stated on the rating plate of your appliance.
My fridge freezer appears to be performing poorly.
o Check that the appliance isn’t overloaded and that food hasn’t
been packed too tightly into it.
o The thermostat setting is too low; you should turn the
thermostat up higher.
o Ensure that the door is closing properly and that the door has
not been opened for a prolonged period in error.
o Ensure that there is adequate ventilation for your appliance.
24
My fridge freezer is noisy.
o The refrigerant gas that c irculates the pipew ork of the applianc e
may make a slight noise, even if the compressor is not running.
o If the noise worsens or the appliance gets louder than normal;
check that it is levelled o ff correc tly, that nothing is touching th e
rear of the fridge freezer and that nothing placed inside the
appliance is rattling.
o The internal parts of the appliance can shrink and e xpand due to
temperature change, which may result in cracking sounds.
Ice has formed on the inner back wall of my fridge or
there is water in the base of the fridge.
o Check that food has not been pushed too far back inside the
appliance, so that it is in contact with the inner back wall.
o IMPORTANT: It is normal to get some ice droplets forming on
the back wall of the ap plia nc e . T he fo rmatio n o f ic e dr o plets does
not indicate an appliance fault.
The front and side of my fridge freezer feels warm or hot.
o There are pipes placed beneath the surfac e to prevent moisture
from forming on it.
The doors do not open easily.
o Every time you open the door of the appliance, warm air will
enter the cabinet. This causes pressure inside of the cabinet
when the door is shut and it may take a few moments to
equalise.
It sounds like water is flowing from the refrigerator.
o Defrost water can make such a sound. This refrigerator has an
automatic defrosting system in the fridge.
