PAGE 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.
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.
If in doubt contact a qualified electrician. 3

IMPORTANT
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. If possible avoid placing the appliance near cookers, radiators or in direct
sunlight as this will cause the compressor to run for long periods. If installed
next to a source of heat or refrigerator, maintain the following minimum side

From Cookers 2" (50 mm)
From Radiators 12" (300 mm)
From Refrigerators or Larder fridges 1" (25 mm)
2. Make sure that sufficient room is provided around the appliance to ensure free
air circulation.
3. Fit the two plastic wall spacers supplied
with the appliance rotating 1/4 turn to
the condenser at the back of the
larder (see diagram).
4. The appliance should be located on a
smooth surface. The two front feet can be
adjusted as required. To ensure that,
your appliance is standing upright adjust
the two front feet by turning clockwise or
anti-clockwise, until the product is in
firm contact with the floor. Correct
adjustment of feet avoids excessive vibration and noise.
5. Refer to "Cleaning and Care" section to prepare your appliance for use.
6. This appliance has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures
beetween +10 and +32 degrees C (50 and 90 degrees F).Therefore if the
appliance is installed in an unheated / cold room (E.g.: Conservatory /

as a result the storage time of food may be reduced.
7. A special receptacle is supplied to store
the mains plug during transit.
The receptacle is fixed at the back of the
cabinet, on the left hand 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.
