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 liner.We recommend that this appliance is connected
to the mains supply via a suitable switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position.
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 a BEKO authorised service agent.
