6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your refrigerator.

• Always unplug the appliance before cleaning.
• Clean the interior with a solution of warm water and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Wipe down the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth.
• Periodically check and clean the door seals to ensure they are free from debris and maintain a tight seal.
• Clean the condenser coils at the back of the appliance (if accessible) annually to maintain energy efficiency.

7. Troubleshooting

Before contacting service, review the following common issues and their potential solutions:

• Appliance not cooling: Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the temperature settings are appropriate. Verify that the door is fully closed.
• Unusual noises: Some operational noises (e.g., gurgling, humming) are normal. If the noise is excessively loud or unusual, ensure the appliance is level and not touching any walls or furniture.
• Water leakage: Check if the drain hole in the refrigerator compartment is clear. Ensure the appliance is level to prevent water from pooling.
• Sides of appliance warm: It is normal for the side walls of the refrigerator to become warm during initial operation or during periods of high usage, as this is where the condenser coils dissipate heat. This is not a defect.

For more complex issues or if the problem persists, refer to the comprehensive troubleshooting guide in your full user manual or contact Beko customer support.
