Cleaning and Care

**We recommend that you switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug before cleaning.

**Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

**Use luke warm water to clean the cabinet of the appliance and wipe it dry.

**Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.

**Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.

**If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time switch it off, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.

**Vacuum-clean the dusts on the appliance once a year.

**Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles.

**Removal of door tray

•To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base.

**To remove a freezer drawer, pull it as far as possible, and then tilt it upwards, and then pull it out completely.

**Avoid spillage of food particularly small items like rice, peas, beans through the fan guard as they may cause the cooling system to block and therefore operate less efficiently.

Protection of plastic surfaces

Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.

Specially Treated Doors

Genuine stainless steel doors have been specially treated to enhance and maintain the elegant appearance of the material. To ensure you can preserve and maintain this, we recommend that you regularly wipe the doors, in an up and down motion with a soft, dry and clean piece of kitchen roll. For further information, please contact Beko Customer Services.

REPLACING THE INTERIOR LIGHT BULB

Should the light fail to work, proceed as follows.

1.Switch off at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.

• Remove all shelves and drawers for easy access.

2.Use a flat tipped screwdriver to gently remove the light diffuser cover by inserting the blade to prise off each side. Take care not to damage the plastic cover and inner liner.

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.
