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 is connected to the mains supply via a
suitable switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position.
WARNING: When positioning the appliance ensure the supply cord is not trapped

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 can be obtained from an authorised service agent.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller than
10 cubic metres.
2. See pages 14 to 21
opening direction.
3. This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 38
degrees C (100 degrees F) and is equipped with Freezer Guard technology which
ensures that even if the ambient temperature falls to -15°C, frozen food in the
freezer does not thaw thanks to this. So you may then install your appliance in a
garage or an unheated room without having to worry about frozen food in the freezer
being spoilt. However at low ambient temperatures mentioned above, fridge contents
are likely to freeze, so check and consume food in the fridge accordingly. When the
ambient temperature returns to normal, you may change the temperature setting to
suit your needs.
If the ambient temperature is below 0°C, the food in the fridge compartment will
freeze. So, we recommend you don’t use the fridge compartment in such low
ambient conditions. You can continue using the freezer compartment as usual.
4. Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct sunlight as this 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
From Radiators
From Freezers
5. Refer to cleaning and care section to prepare your appliance for use.
for detailed Installation Instructions including reversing door
50 mm (2")
300 mm (12")
25 mm (1")
6. 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.

Arrangement examples (see diagram)
1. Baked, chilled cooked food,
dairy products, cans.
2. Wine bottles.
3. Meat, sausages, cold cuts.
4. Fresh fruit and vegetables.
5. Frozen food and freezing of
fresh food.
6. Frozen food.
7. Small bottles, cans, tubes.
8. Eggs.
9. Tall, large bottles, beverages.
The following guidelines and recommendations are suggested to obtain the best results
and storage hygiene.
1. The fridge compartment is for the short term storage of fresh food and drinks.
2. The freezer compartment is rated and suitable for the freezing and storage of
pre frozen food. The recommendation for storage as stated on the food
packaging should be observed at all times.
3. Cooked dishes must be stored in airtight covered containers.
4. Fresh wrapped produce can be placed on the shelf. Fresh fruit and vegetables should
be cleaned and stored in the crisper bins.
5. Bottles can be placed in the door section.
6. To store raw meat, wrap in polythene bags and place on the lowest shelf. Do not allow
to come into contact with cooked food to avoid contamination. For safety, only store raw
meat for two to three days.
7. Keep the food packed wrapped or covered. Allow hot food and beverages to cool
before placing them in the fridge. Do not store explosive substances. High proof alcohol
must be stored upright in sealed containers. Left over canned food should not be stored
in the can.
8. Fizzy drinks should not be frozen and products such as flavoured water ices should
not be consumed too cold.
9. Some fruit and vegetables suffer damage if kept at temperatures near 0°C. Therefore
wrap pineapples, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes and similar produce in polythene bags.
10. Place chilled cooked food and similar food near the rear of the fridge inner liner
where the cold wall is located.
11. Shelves, racks, crisper bins, drawers, flaps, bottle grippers are all removable.
12. Do not leave frozen food at room temperature to thaw; the best way to defrost food is
to put it in the fridge to thaw slowly. Make sure you avoid defrosting food or food juices
drip onto other food.
13. For hygiene reasons, always wrap food using a suitable packaging material before
storing in your appliance to avoid contact with the appliance surface.
14. Maximum frozen food storage volume can be achieved without using the upper shelf
cover located in the freezer. Energy consumption of your appliance is declared while the
freezer compartment is fully loaded without the use of upper shelf cover.
