Troubleshooting
IMPORTANT: If your fridge appears not to be
operating properly, before contacting the Baumatic
Customer Care Department, please refer to the
checklist below.
My fridge 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 thermostat inside the appliance has not been
turned to the off position.
o
Check that your mains supply voltage, corresponds to the
voltage stated on the rating plate of your appliance.
My fridge 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 is noisy.
o
The refrigerant gas that circulates the pipe work 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 and that nothing placed inside the appliance is
rattling.
