How to First Start Your Refrigerator
When setting up your new refrigerator for the first time, it’s important to follow the correct
steps to ensure it functions properly and efficiently. Beko provides simple and effective
guidelines to help you get started.
Step 1: Avoid Using Extension Sockets
When you’re ready to plug in your refrigerator, do not use an extension socket. Plugging
the refrigerator directly into the wall socket ensures a stable power supply, which is
essential for its long-term functionality.
Step 2: Test the Power Socket
Before plugging in your refrigerator, test the main power socket to make sure it’s working
properly. You can use a lamp or another small appliance to check whether the socket
provides power.
Step 3: Plug in the Refrigerator
Once you’ve confirmed the socket is working, plug in your Beko refrigerator. This step is
crucial to starting the appliance for the first time.
Step 4: Let the Refrigerator Run
After plugging it in, keep the refrigerator switched on for at least 6 hours without placing
any food inside. This allows the appliance to reach the correct internal temperature and
ensures the cooling system is working efficiently.
By following these steps, you ensure your refrigerator starts smoothly and operates
efficiently from the beginning. Skipping or neglecting any of these steps can lead to power
issues or improper cooling, impacting the refrigerator’s long-term performance.
