Baumatic BRCF1855SL manual Saving energy when using your fridge-freezer

Bubbling and burbling sound

oThis noise is emitted as the coolant flows through the pipework within the fridge freezer.

Water flowing sound

oThis is caused by water flowing into the evaporating tray during the defrosting process and can be heard whilst the fridge freezer is defrosting.

Saving energy when using your fridge-freezer

Installing:

oInstall 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.

oEnsure the appliance is installed with the correct ventilation requirements. Restricting ventilation can increase the energy consumption by 15%.

Cleaning and Maintenance:

oOccasionally clean the condenser coils (if present) at the back of the appliance to maintain a high performance level.

oClean the door gasket with warm water or a neutral detergent that leaves no residue. A tight-sealing door gasket is critical to the efficiency of your appliance.

Usage:

oDo not open the door repeatedly or more frequently than you have to.

oDo not set the thermostat too low. A change of just one degree can effect the energy consumption by 5%. Use a thermometer to check the temperature.

oThe freezer compartment should operate at -15 to -18 degrees Celsius. The refrigerator should operate at around 3 to 4 degrees Celsius.

oAllow food to sufficiently cool before putting it in the appliance (but don’t let it sit at room temperature for too long).
