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 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.
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 of sodium bicarbonate 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 appliance. It
will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.
During first use
o
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.
o
With dry hands, connect your appliance to your mains supply.
Set the control dial to position 7 for a 24 hour period, before
placing food in the fridge and freezer compartments.
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.
o
It is strongly recommended that you use a freezer thermostat to
check that the temperature in the freezer is below -18°C before
loading any food into it.
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.
