The fridge section
oWe recommend that you leave storage space between food
items, to allow for good air circulation.
oThe temperatures in the fresh food compartment are slightly
warmer towards the top and cooler towards the base.
oPlease find below some storage suggestions, that you may wish
to follow:-
1) Eggs, butter, cheese etc
2) Tins, cans, condiments etc
3) Drinks and bottled foods
4) Pickled foods, drinks or cans
5) Meat, poultry, fish and raw foods
6) Pastries, cans, dairy etc

Adjustable safety glass shelves
oThe shelves may be placed in any of the guide slots within the
interior of the appliance. They are protected from sliding out.
oTo remove a shelf: Take off all of the items that are stored on
the shelf that you want to remove. Then whilst lifting the front of
the shelf, pull it forwards to unhook it from the slots at the rear
of the cabinet.
oTo refit a shelf: When placing a shelf back inside the fridge
compartments, place the hooks into the slots at the rear of the
cabinet. Lower the front of the shelf back down again.
oIMPORTANT: You must ensure that both of the hooks are in
slots that are at the same height; otherwise the shelf will not be
level.
10

Crisper drawers
The crisper drawers are designed to store fruit, vegetables or meat.
The temperature inside of them can be adjusted to one that is suitable
for the food items being stored.
oTo increase the humidity in the crisper drawer, turn the dial that
is located on the right hand side of the crisper drawer.
oWhen the dial is moved towards “Hi”, the humidity level is
increased. The conditions in the crisper drawer are then best
suited to storing cucumbers, grapes, oranges, apples, peaches,
lettuce and other produce with a high moisture content.
oWhen the dial is moved towards “Lo”, the humidity level is
decreased. The conditions in the crisper drawer are then best
suited to storing meat, cheese, onions and other produce which
is drier.
oTo remove the safety glass crisper covers, lift up the cover and
then pull it towards you (as shown in the line drawing above).
11

oFor the storage of meat and fish, we would recommend that they
are stored in a foil cover or a vinyl wrap.
oCare should be taken when storing tropical fruit (bananas and
pineapples etc) and tomatoes. As these types of items can easily
deteriorate in a lower temperature.
Full width pantry
The temperature in the full width pantry can be adjusted, depending
on the type of food that you are storing in it.
oTo control the temperature in the full width pantry, use the air-
regulator dial on the top of it. There are four settings, going from
COLD to COLDEST.
oIMPORTANT: Do no turn the air-regulator dial too hard,
otherwise you might damage it.
oFor the storage of meat and fish, we would recommend that they
are stored in a foil cover or a vinyl wrap.
oCare should be taken when storing tropical fruit (bananas and
pineapples etc) and tomatoes. As these types of items can easily
deteriorate in a lower temperature.
Fridge section door storage compartments
oThe door liners hold various shelves, which are suitable for
storing eggs, cheese, butter and yogurt. As well as smaller
packages, tubes, cans etc.
oThe lowest shelf in each door should be used for storing
reasonably sized bottles.
12

oIMPORTANT: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT NONE OF THE
SHELVES THAT SIT IN THE DOOR ARE OVERLOADED, AS
THIS WILL DRASTICALLY REDUCE THEIR WORKING LIFE.
General and bottle shelf height adjustment
It is possible to adjust the height of the general shelves and bottle
shelves in the doors.
oRemove all items from the shelf that you want to adjust the
height of.
oHold both sides of the shelf then lift it upwards and pull it
towards you.
oPlace the shelf back into the door at the height that you require
and then push it downwards until it locates into position.
The dairy compartments
IMPORTANT: You should take care not to trap your fingers when
opening and shutting the cover of the dairy compartments.
13

The freezer section
The freezer section consists of an upper and lower drawer.
oThe lower freezer drawer is suitable for freezing and storing food
that needs to be kept for longer periods of time.
oThe upper freezer drawer contains the ice maker tray on the left
hand side.
oThe right hand side of the upper freezer drawer can be used to
freeze food, to store ice or to store food that you use regularly.
oIMPORTANT: DO NOT pull the drawers out with too much force,
or overload them. As this may cause food to fall out when you
are opening the drawer.

Before switching on
oMake sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified
person, as per the information contained in Baumatic’s

contained within it, should be cleaned with a solution of liquid
detergent and water.
oThe 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.
oThere can be an odour when you first switch on the appliance. It
will lessen as the appliance starts to cool.

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.

oSome 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.
