ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency shown in the rating plate inside the appliance corresponds to your electricity supply. Rating label is on the left hand side of fridge inner liner. We recommend that this appliance be connected to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket. The appliance must be positioned so that the plug is accessible. Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or should it need replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a special purpose made mains lead which can only be obtained from a BEKO Authorised Service Agent.

WARNING! THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which is cut off as a plug with bared cord could cause a shock hazard if inserted into a socket elsewhere in the house. The moulded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13 A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTABEAB approved BS 1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be the same colour as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any good electrical store.

IMPORTANT! FITTING A DIFFERENT PLUG

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may

not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals

in your plug proceed as follows: (See diagram).

1. Connect the green-yellow or green (Earth) wire to the terminal

in the plug marked 'E' or with

the symbol or coloured

green and yellow or green.

1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller

than 10 cubic metres.

2. See pages 16 to 23 for detailed Installation Instructions including reversing door opening direction.

3. Connect the brown (Live) wire to the terminal in the plug marked 'L'

or coloured red. With alternative plugs a 13 A fuse must be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or

in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.

3. Do not put your fridge freezer in a cold room where the temperature is likely

to go below +5 degrees C (41 degrees F) during night time and/or especially in winter.

This fridge freezer has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures between +5 and +32 degrees C (41 and 90 degrees F) Therefore if the appliance is installed in an unheated/cold room (eg: conservatory/annex/ shed/garage etc) then the appliance will not operate causing the freezer compartment to run warmer and as a result the storage time of frozen food may be reduced.

will cause your appliance to work harder. If installed next to a source of heat or freezer, maintain the following minimum side clearances:

From Cookers 50 mm (2")

From Radiators 300 mm (12")

From Freezers 25 mm (1")

5. Refer to cleaning and care section to prepare your appliance for use.

A special receptacle is supplied to store the mains plug during transit.

The receptacle is fixed at the back of the cabinet, on the side of the compressor. (See diagram) Gently remove the plug from the receptacle. Never pull the mains cord, you may damage the appliance. In the case of transportation, ensure you locate the plug in the receptacle provided to avoid transit damage.
