IMPORTANT: If your fridge freezer appears not to be
operating properly, before contacting the Baumatic
Service Department, please refer to the checklist

is no power to my appliance.
o Check that the plug is fully inserted into the power socket.

voltage stated on the rating plate of your appliance.
My fridge freezer appears to be performing poorly
o Check that the appliance isn't overloaded and that food hasn't
been packed too tightly into it.
o The thermostat setting is too low; you should turn the
thermostat up higher.
o Ensure that the door is closing properly and that the door has
not been opened for a prolonged period in error.
o Ensure that there is adequate ventilation for your appliance.
My fridge freezer is noisy
o The refrigerant gas that circulates the pipework of the appliance
may make a slight noise, even if the compressor is not running.
o If the noise worsens or the appliance gets louder than normal;
check that it is levelled off correctly, that nothing is touching the
rear of the fridge freezer and that nothing placed inside the
appliance is rattling.
