Frequently Asked Questions - BBM450X BEKO

How do I adjust the temperature in my Beko refrigerator?

Use the temperature setting button on the indicator panel. Press the compartment selection button to choose fridge or freezer, then press the temperature setting button to cycle through available temperatures (e.g., -18°C to -24°C for freezer, 1°C to 8°C for fridge).

What should I do if the refrigerator is not cooling properly?

Check if the power plug is fully inserted and the fuse is intact. Ensure the doors are closed properly and not opened frequently. If the error status indicator shows 'E' and a number, contact authorized service. Also, allow 6 minutes for the compressor to restart after a power interruption.

How do I activate the quick freeze function?

Press the quick freeze button (ice crystal icon) on the indicator panel. The function will automatically deactivate after 4 hours or when the desired temperature is reached. Use this to freeze large amounts of fresh food quickly.

Why is there condensation on the side walls of my refrigerator?

Condensation can occur if the environment is too cold (<-5°C) or humid, the door is opened frequently, or foods with liquids are stored unsealed. Ensure the door is closed properly and set the thermostat to an appropriate temperature.

How do I use the vacation function?

Press and hold the vacation button for 3 seconds. The fridge compartment will stop cooling (display shows '- -'), but the freezer continues. This setting is ideal when you are away and do not need to keep food in the fridge. Press the button again to deactivate.

What does the error status indicator mean?

If the indicator lights up and displays 'E' on the freezer temperature display with numbers like 1,2,3..., it indicates a sensor fault or insufficient cooling. Contact authorized service and provide the error code for diagnosis.

How do I clean the refrigerator?

Unplug the appliance. Use a soft cloth dampened with a solution of 1 teaspoon of baking soda in half a liter of water. Wipe interior surfaces and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners, soap, or chlorine-based products. Clean door gaskets and shelves with warm water.

Can I reverse the door opening direction?

Yes, the door is reversible. Refer to the installation section of the manual for step-by-step instructions (proceed in numerical order). If unsure, contact authorized service for assistance.

What type of lighting does the refrigerator use?

The interior light uses an LED lamp. If it needs replacement, contact authorized service. The lamp is not intended for room lighting.

How do I make ice using the automatic ice machine?

Fill the water tank in the cooler compartment with drinking water and replace it. Ice will be ready in about 2 hours. The icematic drawer in the freezer collects the ice. If you hear a sound when ice drops, that is normal.

It is recommended to store leafed vegetables such as lettuce and spinach and similar vegetables prone to moisture loss not on their roots but in horizontal position into the vegetable bin as much as possible. When placing the vegetables, place heavy and hard vegetables at the bottom and light and soft ones on the top, taking into account the specific weights of vegetables.

Do not leave vegetables in the vegetable bin in plastic bags.

Leaving them in plastic bags causes vegetables to rot in a short time. In situations where contact with other vegetables is not preferred, use packaging materials such as paper that has a certain porosity in terms of hygiene.

Do not put fruits that have a high ethylene gas production such as pear, apricot, peach and particularly apple in the same vegetable bin with other vegetables and fruits. The ethylene gas coming out of these fruits might cause other vegetables and fruits to mature faster and rot in a shorter period of time.

5.14. Automatic ice machine

(Optional)

Automatic ice machine enables you to easily make ice in your refrigerator. In order to obtain ice from the ice machine, take out the water tank in the cooler compartment, fill it with water and fix it back.

First ice will be ready in about 2 hours in the ice machine drawer in the cooler compartment.

After placing the full water tank, you can obtain about 60-70 cubes of ice until it is fully empty.

If the water in the tank has waited for 2-3 weeks, it should be changed.

In products with automatic ice machine, you might hear a sound when pouring the ice. This sound is normal and is not a sign of failure.

5.16. Freezing fresh food

• To preserve food quality, the food items placed in the freezer compartment must be frozen as quickly as possible, use the rapid freezing for this.
• Freezing the food items when fresh will extend the storage time in the freezer compartment.
• Pack the food items in air-tight packs and seal tightly.
• Make sure the food items are packed before putting in the freezer. Use freezer holders, tinfoil and damp-proof paper, plastic bag or similar packaging materials instead of traditional packaging paper.

Ice in the freezing compartment thaws automatically.

• Mark each food pack by writing the date on the package before freezing. This will allow you to determine the freshness of each pack every time the freezer is opened. Keep the earlier food items in the front to ensure they are used first.
• Frozen food items must be used immediately after defrosting and should not be frozen again.
• Do not free large quantities of food at once.

5.17. Recommendations for storing frozen foods

The compartment must be set to at least -18^irc C.

1. Place the food items in the freezer as quickly as possible to avoid defrosting.
2. Before freezing, check the "Expiry Date" on the package to make sure it is not expired.
3. Make sure the food's packaging is not damaged.

5.18. Deep freezer details

As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer must have the capacity to freeze 4.5 kg of food items at -18°C or lower temperatures in 24 hours for each 100 litres of freezer compartment volume.

Food items can only be preserved for extended periods at or below temperature of -18^ircC .

You can keep the foods fresh for months (in deep freezer at or below temperatures of 18^irc C).

The food items to be frozen must not contact the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial defrosting.

Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend the frozen storage time.

Place the food in air-tight packages after filtering and place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and similar food items should not be frozen. In case this food rots, only nutritional values and eating qualities will be negatively affected. A rotting threatening human health is not in question.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product is increase if it is regularly cleaned

WARNING: First unplug the product before cleaning your refrigerator.

• Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap, household cleaners, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.
• Dissolve one teaspoon of carbonate in half liter of water. Soak a cloth with the solution and wrung it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the appliance with this cloth and the dry thoroughly.
• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.
• Clean the door with a damp cloth. To remove door and body shelves, remove all of its contents. Remove door shelves by moving them upwards. After cleaning, slide them from top to bottom to install.
• Never use cleaning agents or water that contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.
• Do not use sharp, abrasive tools, soap, household cleaning agents, detergents, kerosene, fuel oil, varnish etc. to prevent removal and deformation of the prints on the plastic part. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

6.1. Avoiding bad odors

Materials that may cause odor are not used in the production of our appliances. However, due to inappropriate food preserving conditions and not cleaning the inner surface of the appliance as required can bring forth the problem of odor.

Therefore, clean the refrigerator with carbonate dissolved in water every 15 days.

• Keep the food in closed containers. Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered containers can cause unpleasant odours.
• Never keep the food that have expired best before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.

6.2. Protecting the plastic surfaces

Clean with arm water immediately as the oil may cause damage on the surface when it is poured on plastic surfaces.

6.3. Door Glasses

Remove the protective foil on the glasses.

There is a coating on the surface of the glasses. This coating minimizes the stain build-up and helps to remove the possible stains and dirt easily. Glasses that are not protected with such a coating may be subject to persistent binding of air or water based organic or inorganic dirt such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides and silicones that can easily and quickly cause stains or material damage. Keeping the glass clean becomes too difficult despite the regular cleaning. Consequently, the appearance and the transparency of the glass deteriorates. Harsh and corrosive cleaning methods and compounds will intensify these defects and speed up the deterioration process.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

Water-based cleaning products that are not alkaline and corrosive must be used for regular cleaning purposes.

Non-alkaline and non-corrosive materials must be used for cleaning so that the service life of this coating lasts for a long time.

These glasses are tempered to increase their durability against impacts and breaking. A safety film is also applied to their rear surfaces as an extra safety measure in order to prevent them from causing damage to their surrounding in case of a breakage.

*Alkali is a base that forms hydroxide ions (OH ^- ) when it is dissolved in water. Li (Lithium), Na (Sodium), K (Potassium) Rb (Rubidium), Cs (Cesium) and artificial and radioactive Fr (Fan-sium) metals are called ALKALI METALS.
