This appliance which is among the latest
range introduced is particularly environment
friendly. Your appliance contains non CFC
/ HFC natural substances in the cooling
system (Called R600a) and in the insulation
(Called cyclopentane) which are potentially
flammable if exposed to fire. Therefore,
take care not to damage, the cooling circuit
/ pipes of the appliance in transportation
and in use. In case of damage do not
expose the appliance to fire or potential
ignition source and immediately ventilate
the room where the appliance is situated.
• We suggest you contact your local
authority for disposal information and
facilities available.
• See Installation Instructions on on page 8
for information on suitable location.
• To obtain the best possible performance
and trouble free operation from your
appliance it is very important to carefully
read these instructions.
• Do not use electrical appliances inside
the food storage compartments of the
appliance, unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.
• We suggest you keep these instructions
in a safe place for easy reference.

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.
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
Energy Saving Tips
1- Ensure your appliance is installed in
a well ventilated area.
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.
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.
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.
4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge
compartment, so that frozen food acts
as an ice pack to assist cooling in the
fridge.
