Description of the product features 1) Adjustable fridge shelves o The shelves may be placed in any of the guide slots within the interior of the appliance. They are protected from sliding out. o To remove a shelf: Take off all of the items that are stored on the shelf that you want to remove.
Using your Baumatic fridge freezer Before switching on o Make sure that it has been installed by a suitably qualified person, information contained Baumatic’s installation instructions. o After delivery, wait for eight hours before connecting the appliance to your mains supply.

Arranging and storing food in the fridge section 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.
