3. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps to safely install the Beko Oven Hood Red Indicator Lamp:
- Disconnect Power: Before beginning, ensure the oven hood is completely disconnected from the main power supply at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Access Old Lamp: Carefully locate the existing indicator lamp on your oven hood fascia. Depending on your model, you may need to remove a panel or gently pry the old lamp assembly out.
- Remove Old Lamp: Disconnect the electrical wires from the old lamp assembly. Note the orientation of the wires (e.g., which wire connects to which terminal) if they are not color-coded.
- Install New Lamp: Connect the electrical wires to the new Beko Red Indicator Lamp assembly. Ensure the connections are firm and correct.
- Secure Lamp: Insert the new lamp assembly into its designated opening on the oven hood fascia. Ensure it clicks securely into place or is fastened as per your appliance's design.
- Restore Power: Once the new lamp is securely installed and all connections are verified, restore power to the oven hood at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
- Test Functionality: Turn on your oven hood to verify that the new red indicator lamp illuminates correctly.
Important Note: Some users have reported that the electrical leads on the replacement lamp may be shorter than the original, potentially making it difficult to reach the plug-in points near the cooker knobs. If this occurs, ensure the lamp is positioned correctly and consider extending the wiring with appropriate, heat-resistant electrical connectors if necessary, or consult a qualified electrician.
