3) Crisper (salad) drawers and cover

• The crisper drawers are in the bottom of your refrigerator and there is a cover that goes over them.
• The cover helps to prevent fruit and vegetables from drying out prematurely.

4) Dairy shelf (door rack)

• The dairy shelf is suitable for storing eggs, cheese and yogurt. As well as smaller packages, tubes, cans etc.

5) Bottle shelf (bottle door rack)

• The 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.

USING YOUR BAUMATIC LARDER FRIDGE

Before switching on

• Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, as per the information contained in Baumatic’s installation instructions.
• 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.
• The outside of the appliance and the removable accessories contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid detergent and water.
• The 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.
• There can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.

During first use

• You should set the thermostat dial to its maximum setting for 24 hours after switching on the appliance for the first time.
• When you first switch on the appliance, the compressor will run continuously for approximately 24 hours or until the fridge freezer reaches a cool enough temperature.
• During this period of time, you should try not to open the door frequently or place a large amount of food within the appliance.
• You should then adjust the thermostat dial down to its normal operating position.
• If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting the appliance on the thermostat or connecting it to your mains supply.

Switching 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.

• The thermostat automatically regulates the temperature inside of the fridge, depending on what number you have turned the thermostat control knob to:-

  • Position <0> means that the appliance will not cool. However the light will still function.
  • Position <1> will give you a higher temperature inside of the fridge.
  • Position <6> will give you a lower temperature inside of the fridge.

• Ideally the thermostat should be set to a position of between <3> to <4>. o Your refrigerator can maintain a temperature of between 4 ­- 6 degrees centigrade.
  IMPORTANT : The ambient temperature of the room, the temperature of the food and the amount of food that has been placed in the appliance and how often the door is opened, will all affect the temperature being maintained by the appliance.

• On the maximum setting (position <6>), your fridge will work harder to maintain a lower temperature and will increase the energy usage. There is no need to run your appliance on this setting for prolonged periods and you should return the thermostat knob to between <3> to <4>.

IMPORTANT : Do not run the appliance with the thermostat above number 5 in normal usage otherwise the defrost drain hole will freeze.

ARRANGING AND STORING FOOD IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR

• 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.
• To maximise the space inside of your refrigerator, any excessive packaging on the food should be removed. o Quickly perishable food should be stored at the back of the refrigerator, which is the coldest part of the appliance.
• No food items should be allowed to come into contact with the back wall of the refrigerator.
• Make sure that you arrange food in such a way that the door can close completely. Particular attention should be given to bottles that may protrude when placed on shelves inside the main section of the refrigerator.
• 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.
• 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 of the appliance and will increase the energy usage.
• Meat should be wrapped in polythene bags and then placed on the glass shelf above the salad drawer.

(Meat should only be stored in this manner for one or two days at the most).

• Cold dishes/cooked food should be covered and can be placed on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables should be cleaned thoroughly and placed in the salad drawer.
• Cheese and butter should be placed in airtight containers, or they can be wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags. As much air as possible should be removed from the bags.
• Milk bottles should have a cap on them and be stored on the bottle shelf that sits in the door.
• Garlic, potatoes, onions and bananas should only be stored in a refrigerator IF they are stored in airtight containers.

SAVING ENERGY WHEN USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Installing:

• 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.
• Ensure the appliance is installed with the correct ventilation requirements. Restricting ventilation can increase the energy consumption by 15%.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

• Occasionally clean the condenser coils (if present) at the back of the appliance to maintain a high performance level.
• 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:

• 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.
• The refrigerator should operate at around 3 to 4 degrees Celsius.
• Allow food to sufficiently cool before putting it in the appliance (but don’t let it sit at room temperature for too long).
• If you are going away for a long period of time, turn off the appliance, empty and clean it and leave the door ajar.
• 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.

Disposing:

• If you’re going to throw out your old fridge, see if there’s a chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) recycler in your area. 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.

• Do not clean the appliance by pouring water onto it or spraying water over it.
• The refrigerator compartment should be cleaned periodically, using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
• Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do not clean them in a dishwasher.
• Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps.
• After washing the appliance, wipe over the area that you have cleaned with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly.
• When cleaning is complete, dry your hands and then reconnect the plug to your mains supply.

The defrost drain hole

Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation. The defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.

• 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.

IMPORTANT : Please note that the drain hole cleaner should not be left in position permanently. Otherwise this may prevent the defrost water from entering the drain hole.

• You can also pour a small amount of water down the drain hole to clean the defrost drainage channel.
• 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 your refrigerator.
• Use a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water to clean the evaporating tray.

IMPORTANT : It is normal to get some ice droplets forming on the back wall of the appliance. The formation of ice droplets does not indicate an appliance fault.

Replacing the light bulb

WARNING : PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR APPLIANCE IS DISCONNECTED FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REPLACE THE LIGHT BULB.

• Press the rear end of the bulb cover until the sides release and then lift the bulb cover clear of the bulb.
• Change the present light bulb with a new one. The replacement bulb should not have a greater rating than 15 W; (an E14 15 W bulb should be used).
• Replace the light cover and after waiting five minutes, reconnect your plug to your mains supply.

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 refrigerator.

The manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of the installer failing to observe all the accident prevention regulations in force, which are necessary for normal use and the regular operation of the electric system.
