ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS  
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.  
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! THISAPPLIANCE 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 ASTA 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.  
2. Connect the blue (Neutral) wire  
to the terminal in the plug  
marked 'N' or coloured black.  
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.

This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 32 degrees C  
(90 degrees F) and is equipped with Freezer Guard which ensures that at the advised  
setting [4 - four on the knob] the frozen food in the freezer will not defrost even if the ambient  
temperature falls as low as -15 °C. When first installed the product MUST NOT be placed in  
low ambient temperatures because the freezer will not reduce to it’s standard operating  
temperature. Once it has reached its steady operating state it can be re-located. 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. When the ambient temperature returns to  
normal, you may change the knob 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.  
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
1. The space in the room where the appliance is installed must not be smaller than 10 cubic  
metres.  
2. 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 Refrigerators or Larder Fridge  
2" (50 mm)  
12" (300 mm)

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.

Water dispenser  
Water dispenser is a very useful feature to obtain chilled  
water without opening the door of your fridge. Since you  
do not have to open the door of your fridge frequently, you  
also save on electricity.  
Using the water dispenser  
Push in the lever of the water dispenser with your glass.  
By releasing the lever, you cut off the dispensing. When  
operating the water dispenser, maximum flow is achieved  
by fully depressing the lever. Please note, how much  
water flows from the dispenser depends on how far you  
depress the lever. As the level of water in your cup / glass  
rises, gently reduce the amount of pressure on the lever  
to avoid overflow. If you depress the lever a small amount,  
then water will trickle; this is perfectly normal and is not a  
fault.  
Filling in the water tank of water dispenser  
Open the cap of the water tank as illustrated in the figure.  
Fill in with pure and clean drinking water. dose the cap. To  
avoid accidental water dispensing, we recommend you to  
lock the water dispenser. [See Page 10]  
Caution!  
· Do not fill water tank with any liquid other than drinking  
water; beverages such as fruit juice, carbonated fizzy  
soda drinks, alcoholic drinks are not suitable for use  
with water dispenser. If such liquids are used, the water  
dispenser will malfunction and may be damaged beyond  
repair. The guarantee does not cover such uses. Some  
chemical ingredients and additives in such drinks /  
beverages may also attack and damage water tank  
material.  
· Only use clean pure drinking water.  
· Capacity of water dispenser tank is 2.2 litres [3.8 pints],  
do not overfill.  
· Push the water dispenser lever with a rigid cup. If you  
are using a plastic disposable cup, then push the lever  
with your fingers from behind the cup.  
· Safety lock is supplied for your convenience when filling  
the water tank and also to avoid small children  
tampering with the water dispenser. [See Page 10]

Cleaning the water tank  
Remove the water tank, open the latches on both sides  
and detach the top cover mechanism from the water tank.  
Clean the water tank with warm clean water, reinstall the  
top cover mechanism and fasten the latches.  
When installing the water tank, make sure that hooks  
behind it fits securely into the hangers on the door. Make  
sure that parts removed during cleaning (if any) are  
installed correctly into their original locations.  
Otherwise, water may leak.  
Important:  
Water tank and components of water dispenser are not  
dishwasher-proof.  
The following information is valid only for the water  
dispensers endowed with lock  
You may use the lock in order to avoid small children  
tampering with the water dispenser. To do this, slide the  
locking latch from left to right as illustrated in the figure.  
You must slide the latch back to left position in order to  
use the water dispenser.  
Unlock  
Lock  
Water tray  
Water that drips while using the water dispenser  
accumulates in the drip tray. Remove the drip tray by  
pulling it towards yourself and empty it from time to time.  
Remove the plastic drainer part as shown in the diagram  
by pressing down on the edge.  
Remove the water valve from the water tank as shown in  
the diagram. When re-fitting, make sure the O-shaped  
seal is in place.  
10  
 
TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND ADJUSTMENT  
Operating temperatures are controlled by the setting knob (see diagram) located on the  
ceiling of fridge compartment. Settings may be made from min, 1 ... 6, max, max being the  
coldest position.  
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the setting knob should be adjusted so  
that after 24 hours, the average fridge temperature is no higher than +5°C (+41°F). We  
recommend you set the knob on 5 position between the min and max setting and monitor to  
obtain the desired temperature i. e. towards max you will obtain a colder fridge temperature  
and vice versa. Some sections of the fridge may be cooler or warmer (such as the salad  
crisper and the top part of the cabinet) which is quite normal.  
The normal storage temperature of the freezer should be -18°C (0°F). Lower temperatures  
may be obtained by adjusting setting knob towards max position.  
We recommend that you check the temperature with an accurate thermometer to ensure  
that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature.  
Remember you must take your reading very quickly since the thermometer temperature will  
rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.  
Please remember each time the door is opened cold air escapes and the internal  
temperature rises. Therefore never leave the door open and ensure it is closed immediately  
after food is put in or removed.  
In case of a temporary ice build up in the fridge compartment, reduce the setting to min,  
monitoring at the same time that the fridge temperature is maximum +5 degrees C [41  
degrees F]. Once the ice build up disappears and the appliance starts auto defrosting again  
as normal, then you may increase the setting, if required.  
BEFORE OPERATING  
Final Check  
Before you start using the appliance check that:  
1. The feet have been adjusted for perfect levelling.  
2. The interior is dry and air can circulate freely at the rear.  
3. The interior is clean as recommended under "Cleaning and care.”  
4. The plug has been inserted into the wall socket and the electricity is switched on. When  
the door is open the interior light will come on.  
And note that:  
5. You will hear a noise as the compressor starts up. The liquid and gases sealed within the  
refrigeration system may also make some (noise), whether the compressor is running or  
not. This is quite normal.  
6. Slight undulation of the top of the cabinet is quite normal due to the manufacturing  
process used; it is not a defect.  
7. We recommend setting the thermostat knob midway and monitor the temperature to  
ensure the appliance maintains desired storage temperatures (See section Temperature  
Control and Adjustment).  
8. Do not load the appliance immediately it is switched on. Wait until the correct storage  
temperature has been reached. We recommend checking the temperature with an accurate  
thermometer (see; Temperature Control and Adjustment).  
11  
 
STORING FROZEN FOOD  
Your freezer is suitable for the long-term storage of commercially frozen foods and also can  
be used to freeze and store fresh food.  
If there is a power failure, do not open the door. Frozen food should not be affected if the  
failure lasts for less than 16 hrs. If the failure is longer, then the food should be checked  
and either eaten immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.  
FREEZING FRESH FOOD  
Please observe the following instructions to obtain the best results.  
Do not freeze too large a quantity at any one time. The quality of the food is best preserved  
when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.  
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 h.  
Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the refrigeration machine to  
operate continously until the food is frozen solid. This can temporarily lead to excessive  
cooling of the refrigeration compartment.  
When freezing fresh food, keep the setting knob at medium position. Small quantities of  
food up to 1/2 kg. (1 lb) can be frozen without adjusting the temperature control knob.  
Take special care not to mix already frozen food and fresh food.  
MAKING ICE CUBES  
Fill the ice - cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the Ice Bank. Loosen frozen trays  
with the handle of a spoon, never use sharp edged objects such as knives, forks. Store ice-  
cubes in the Ice Bank.  
Note: If freshly made ice cubes are not consumed for several weeks and stored in Ice  
Bank, they will slowly reduce in size and eventually disappear completely.  
DEFROSTING  
A) Fridge compartment  
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The  
defrost water runs to the drain tube via a collection  
container at the back of the appliance.  
During defrosting, water droplets may form at the  
(2)  
Defrost  
Water  
Collection  
Drain Tube  
(1)  
back of the fridge compartment where a concealed  
evaporator is located. Some droplets may remain on  
the liner and refreeze when defrosting is completed.  
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as  
knives or forks to remove the droplets which have  
refrozen.  
If, at any time, the defrost water does not drain from  
the collection channel, check that no food particles  
have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be  
cleared with a pipe-cleaner or  
Pushing the special plastic plunger provided  
down the drain tube (2).  
Check that the tube is permanently placed with its  
end in the collecting tray on the compressor to  
prevent the water spilling. If the frost layer  
reaches about 1/4'' (7 mm), reduce the setting  
(i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart automatic defrosting.  
12  
 
B) Freezer compartment  
The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.  
Warnings!  
The fan inside the freezer compartment circulates cold air. Never insert any object through  
the guard. Do not allow children to play with the freezer fan.  
Never store products that contain inflammable propellant gas (eg dispensers, spray cans  
etc.) or explosive substances.  
Don't cover the shelves with any protective materials, which may obstruct air circulation.  
Do not allow children to play with the appliance or tamper with the controls.  
Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that you obtain the best possible  
performance from your appliance.  
Freezer fan  
Warning!  
Your appliance is fitted with a circulating fan which is essential for the performance of the  
freezer. Please ensure the fan is not blocked (stopped) or impaired by food or packaging.  
Blocking (stopping) or impairing the fan can result in an increase of the internal freezer  
temperature (Thawing).  
REPLACING THE INTERIOR LIGHT BULB (See diagram)  
Should the light fail to work, proceed as follows.  
1. Switch off at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.  
· You may find it useful to remove shelves for easy access.  
2. Use a flat tipped screwdriver to remove the light diffuser cover by inserting the blade in  
each of the two recesses to prise off each side.  
3. First check that the bulb hasn't worked loose by ensuring it is screwed securely in the  
holder. Replace the plug and switch on. If the bulb works, replace the light cover by  
inserting the rear lug and pushing up to locate the front two lugs.  
4. If the light still fails to work, switch off at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.  
Replace the bulb with a new 15 watt (max) screw cap (SES) bulb.  
5. Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb immediately.

Don't- Freeze fizzy drinks.  
Don't- Try to keep frozen food which has thawed; it should be eaten within 24 hours or  
cooked and refrozen.  
Don't- Remove items from the freezer with wet hands.  
Don't- Close the freezer door before placing the compartment cover in its place.  
Don't- 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.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS  
1- Ensure your appliance is instolled in a well ventilated area. If the ambient temperature is  
low (but in no case lower than 5 degrees C), then the energy saving will be more. In this  
case, check temperatures of fridge and freezer compartments with an accurate  
thermometer and lower the setting (towards 1) if necessary.  
2- Ensure the time between buying chilled/frozen food and placing them in your appliance  
is kept at minimum, particularly in summer. We recommend you use a cool bag or a  
special carrier bag to carry frozen food.  
3- Do not leave the door (s) of your appliance open longer than necessary and ensure they  
are closed properly after each opening. .  
4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge compartment, so that frozen food acts as an ice pack to  
assist cooling in the fridge.  
PROBLEM SOLVING  
If the appliance does not operate when switched on, check whether:  
· The plug is inserted properly in the socket and that the power supply is on. (To check the  
power supply to the socket, plug in another appliance).  
· The fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped/main distribution switch has been turned  
off.  
· The temperature control has been set correctly.  
· New plug is wired correctly if you have changed the fitted moulded plug.  
If the appliance is still not operating after the above checks, please refer to the section on  
"How To Obtain Service.  
Please ensure that above checks have been made as a charge will be made if no fault is  
found.
