Using your Baumatic 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.
Control panel o GREEN light: This will turn on when the appliance has power. o RED light: This is the temperature-rise warning light. This will come on if the internal temperature of the appliance rises above acceptable levels. If this light comes on you should check that the drawers and door are closing properly and the thermostat is set to an appropriate level*. o YELLOW light: This indicates that the compressor is running.
o IMPORTANT: The ambient temperature of the room, the temperature of food and the amount of food that has been placed in the freezer and how often the door is opened, will all affect the temperature being maintained by the appliance. o On the maximum setting your freezer will work harder to maintain a lower temperature and will increase the energy usage. There is no need to run your appliance at this setting for prolonged periods.
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. Freezing fresh food o Fresh food should be packed into airtight containers 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 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.
Saving energy when using your 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%.
Disposing: o If you're going to throw out your old freezer, 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. o Do not clean the appliance by pouring water onto it or spraying water over it.
Defrosting the freezer 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.
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 behind the freezer drawers.
Reversing the door swing IMPORTANT: BEFORE COMMENCING THE DOOR REVERSAL PROCESS THE APPLIANCE MUST BE DISCONNECTED FROM YOUR MAINS SUPPLY. o We suggest that two people complete the door reversal process. o We recommend that the door reversal process is done before the appliance is placed in its final position. o Retain all screws, caps and accessories that you remove for later use. To change the door opening direction, please follow the instructions below: 1) Switch off the appliance and unplug it.
5) Remove the door. Remove the hinge-pin hole cap from the top of the door and insert it into the existing hinge-pin hole in the opposite side, thus exposing the new hinge-pin hole and covering the old hole. 6) Unscrew the plastic hinge-pin receiver from the bottom of the door and relocate it to the opposite side. There are pilot groves for the screws on the opposite side. 7) Place the door somewhere safe from damage.
After the door has been reversed, you should check the door seal of the appliance. The seal should not be creased or crushed; otherwise there will be a gap between it and the inside of the door. o The seal must adhere properly all the way around the door. o If the seal is not adhering to the cabinet properly, then you should either:1. Use a warm damp cloth and manipulate the seal until it does adhere to the cabinet properly, all the way around the door. OR 2.
o Keep a minimum of 50 mm between your freezer and the back wall. There should also be a gap of 25 mm either side and 50 mm clear space above the freezer. If there is insufficient space this can create the sound of vibration, weakening of the appliance’s power and a waste of electricity. o The appliance should never be placed upside down or carried in a horizontal position. o Your appliance should not be located in direct sunlight or exposed to continuous heat or extremes of temperature (e.g.
Troubleshooting IMPORTANT: If your freezer appears not to be operating properly, before contacting the Baumatic Customer Care Department, please refer to the checklist below. My 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 there hasn’t been a power cut or that the fuse hasn’t blown). o Check that the control dial has not been turned to the off setting.
Excessive frost and ice has built up in the freezer. o Make sure that the door is not left open for prolonged periods of time. o Check there is nothing preventing the door from closing correctly and that the door gasket is clean and intact. o It is normal for frost to build up over a period of time and when this happens you should follow the “Defrosting the freezer” instructions on page 16. The freezer door will not open.
IMPORTANT: If your appliance appears not to be operating correctly, then you should disconnect it from your mains supply and then contact the Baumatic Customer Care Department on telephone number (0118) 933 6911. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR THE APPLIANCE YOURSELF. Please note that if an engineer is asked to attend whilst the product is under guarantee and finds that the problem is not the result of an appliance fault, then you may be liable for the cost of the call out charge.
