How to set the temperature in a beko refrigerator

Adjusting the temperature in a Beko refrigerator

The temperature is controlled using a control knob (Fig. 5, p. 8) located inside the refrigerator compartment. A value can be set from min 1 to max 6, where max is the position of the coldest temperature. When you turn on the refrigerator for the first time, we recommend setting the adjustment knob to the middle position, between the minimum and maximum values. In the future, when turning, it is necessary to control the achievement of the desired temperature, i.e. the max (maximum) temperature in the refrigerator will be colder and vice versa. The temperature in some areas of the refrigerator may be higher or lower (such as the fruit and vegetable compartment or the top of the refrigerator), which is normal. The normal temperature for storing food in the freezer should be -18 °C. To set a lower temperature, the knob must be turned in the direction of the max position (lowest temperature possible). We recommend checking the temperature with an accurate thermometer to ensure that the food storage compartments are at the correct temperature. Remember that you need to take readings from the thermometer very quickly, since its temperature will change rapidly after removal from the freezer compartment. Remember that every time the door is opened, cold air will be lost and therefore the internal temperature will rise. Therefore, never leave the door open and ensure that it is tightly closed immediately after placing food in or removing food from the refrigerator.

Use of Beko refrigerated cabinets

It is permissible to connect the refrigeration cabinet to the electrical network after checking the internal compartments for cleanliness and installing the unit in a place prepared for it in the room. Next, perform the following manipulations:

Using adjustment components or buttons on the screen (display), the required temperature regime is set. Some models are equipped with an apparatus for ionizing air in the departments.
The temperature regime is set at the owner’s own discretion, but the manufacturer advises setting it to -18 ̊C in the case of the freezer and +4 ̊C for the refrigerator compartment.
When the ambient temperature exceeds 30 ̊C, then it is necessary to set the indicators for the freezer at -20 ̊C.
To quickly defrost a freezer, use a specially designed function when provided by the manufacturer.
Before starting quick defrosting, check the specialized tank that the Beko refrigerator is equipped with.

Advice! All liquid formed during defrosting of the unit enters a specialized container - therefore, it is important to position it correctly to prevent the formation of puddles near the refrigerators.

Tips for adjusting temperature

Correctly set temperature is one of the most important instructions for maintaining the proper functioning of the refrigerator. If you set the required number of degrees from the very first day of operation of the unit, this will extend the life of the motor by several years.

Older refrigerator models had only 2 modes: working and not working. Modern types of units offer a greater number of functions.

Why is it important to maintain the required temperature inside the refrigerator? Most products that are in the refrigerator should be stored at +2...+5ºС. This number of degrees will allow them to remain fresh for a long time. If the unit cools more strongly, the food will freeze and lose its taste or texture. And if the refrigerator is warmer than necessary, there is a chance of spoiling its contents, because... above +5ºС, pathogenic bacteria begin to actively multiply, as a result of which mold or rot may appear on the products.

The freezer also requires a specific temperature setting. Most of the products that need to be frozen are stored in it - ice, vegetables, fish and meat. If this part of the refrigerator is not cold enough, water - melted ice - will regularly accumulate around the unit, and if this continues for a long time, the food may even spoil. Also, an incorrectly configured refrigerator consumes more electricity, which leads to even greater losses.

Therefore, it is very important to set the temperature correctly.

What happens if the temperature is set incorrectly

The optimal storage temperature for most products in the refrigerator is from +2 to +5°C .
If the temperature in the refrigerator is set at a lower temperature, the food freezes slightly or freezes, losing its beneficial properties. Once defrosted, food spoils quickly. At higher temperatures, bacteria begin to multiply in products , which leads to their rapid spoilage. Eating such food is dangerous to health.

If the temperature is set incorrectly, energy consumption increases. Ice forms on the walls of the unit, and it has to be defrosted frequently. Or, on the contrary, water is constantly leaking. All this shortens the life of the household appliance.

Rules for operating Beko refrigeration equipment

The units are reliable, but breakdowns are inevitable when the owner does not follow the rules and regulations of the operating manual. To ensure that your Beko refrigerator lasts as long as possible, follow these rules:

The unit can only be connected after the equipment has been completely released from the original packaging and placed securely in the room (the equipment must stand firmly and not wobble).
During defrosting, it is prohibited to use tools and other devices to quickly remove ice.
It is prohibited to use heat to speed up the defrosting process of the Beko refrigerator.
It is prohibited to place electrical appliances and other devices that are not directly related to food products and their storage in the chambers of refrigeration equipment.
It is not recommended to place household appliances and other items on the top cover of the refrigerator.

It is forbidden to connect the plug through tees, extension cords or carriers, since the refrigerator is a unit that is demanding on energy resources and an increase in load negatively affects the quality of operation of the device. In addition to the above, the operating manual contains requirements directly for the electrical network to which the unit is connected - there must be a circuit breaker.

Customer Reviews

Consumer judgments are also varied, although there are common points where criticism converges. First of all, this relates to the functionality that Beko refrigerators have. Customer reviews note not only a wide range of adjustments and optional features, but also ease of placement in the kitchen. For cramped spaces or dining rooms with an unusual layout, the same built-in models can be the optimal solution.

The owners also emphasize the benefits of technological innovations. The fact is that budget equipment does not always have a high level of advanced functions. And just the opposite impression is caused by the Beko No Frost refrigerator. Reviews praise the ventilation between the chambers, which preserves the freshness of the products and also prevents negative processes such as freezing of the doors on the back sides. Unfortunately, the opinions of direct consumers cannot do without mention of various breakdowns, up to and including complete loss of functionality.

Standard temperature indicators in a Beko refrigerator

The significant volume of a two-chamber refrigerator is the reason for uneven heat distribution. The regulator's performance depends on the location of the compressor and the design of the unit. Low temperature is observed at the point of entry of cold air, which is located in the upper or middle part of the main chamber.

The maximum values are +6-8°. The optimal temperature inside the chamber is from +2 to +5°. For long-term storage of meat, fish, eggs, cheese it is necessary from +1 to +3°, sausages, ready-made food - up to +4°, soups, fermented milk products, seafood - up to +5°, fruits, vegetables - up to +8° . The optimal freezer temperature is from -6 to -25°.

Attention! Frozen foods retain their properties equally at low temperatures. It is not necessary to regulate the temperature yourself. Optimal freezer parameters are set by manufacturers.

How to regulate the temperature in different brands of refrigerators?

In modern units, it is possible to regulate the temperature of the freezer and refrigerator compartments separately, as well as of different compartments independently of each other. Let's look at the features of thermal regulation of models from leading manufacturers presented on the domestic market:

Gorenje - the temperature in the refrigerator is set by turning the control knob to a position between Max and Min . It is recommended to set the thermostat to the ECO . If the air temperature in the room where the refrigerator is installed is below 16 degrees, the manufacturer advises turning the knob to Max , and vice versa in case of ambient heat.
Liebherr - electronic temperature control, in many models - separate regulation in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. There is a CoolPlus mode - a system that protects the refrigerator from temperature changes in the external environment. As soon as the air in the room becomes colder, the compressor of the device begins to work intermittently. SmartFreeze is a special cooling technology in which, due to active air circulation, it becomes possible to quickly freeze many kilograms of food at once. Super cooling and super fast freezing modes in the freezer.
Atlant - the temperature is regulated by turning the thermostat knob in both directions. There is a dial on it. The adjustment occurs on a seven-point scale: 0 – the compressor is turned off, 1 – the highest temperature, 7 – the lowest.
Samsung - the temperature is controlled using the control panel separately for the freezer and refrigerator compartments:

refrigerator compartment: press the Fridge button to set the required temperature in the range from +1 to +7 degrees. The default temperature is 3 degrees;
freezer: the temperature is set in the same way from -14 to -25 degrees. An accelerated freezing function is available, which is activated for 72 hours, after which the freezer returns to normal temperature conditions.

Bosch - the temperature is regulated similarly to the previous brand, there is also a super cooling mode, available for 6 hours (the temperature quickly and evenly drops to +2 degrees, cooling the food just put in the refrigerator - as a result, those lying next to them do not have time to thaw).
Indesit - the temperature inside the refrigerator is automatically adjusted in accordance with the position of the thermostat knob: 1 - the warmest mode, 5 - the coldest mode.
LG - in many models, the temperature is controlled using a control panel separately for the freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Stinol - there are two independent regulators for a two-chamber unit. Five positions on both thermostats, super cooling mode available in the freezer.

How should the temperature regulator be positioned in a Beko refrigerator to prevent food from spoiling?

The manufacturer sets a temperature range with the possibility of changing it (usually from +2°C to +8°C for the refrigerator compartment, and from -16°C to -24°C for the freezer). Users have the opportunity to change these parameters and adjust the temperature in the refrigerator to suit themselves. Temperature adjustment for modern and discontinued refrigerator models follows the same principles. The longer the refrigerator runs, the more cold it will create. And vice versa. Mechanical regulators are adjusted by turning the regulator knob. Typically, the cold adjustment scale has values from 1 to 7. The weakest cold will correspond to number 1, the coldest will be number 6-7. The manufacturer recommends setting the regulator to 2.5 - 3. It is difficult to say unequivocally what number of the thermostat should be set in the refrigerator. Temperature readings in the refrigerator compartment are determined by a large number of factors: technical condition, refrigerator load, room temperature, frequency of door openings, etc., so it is necessary to periodically check the quality of cooling.

Hello! Refrigerator beko 30000. Set to number 2, cycle: 36-40 minutes, working, 1 hour - not working, but the temperature in the refrigerator is +10, in the freezer - 8-10 degrees, empty, without food. Is this the right job? Or any deviations in work? Thank you.

Good afternoon BEKO CS* 30000 is a free-standing two-chamber refrigerator with electromechanical control, one compressor and a drip defrosting system for the refrigerator. The periods of operation and rest of the compressor are normal. Try setting the thermostat to position “3”, because in the refrigerator compartment it should be +5+6, and in the freezer -16-18 degrees Celsius. If this temperature is not established, the seal of your refrigerator may be damaged, or the refrigerator may be leaking freon from the system.

Operating modes

In addition to the main operating mode in the BEKO CNKDN6356E20W refrigerator, there are several more.

Super freezing and fast cooling

Super freezing is a mode of temporarily reducing the temperature in the freezer compartment to the lowest possible (-27). When the “Super Freeze” mode is activated, the compressor starts working continuously until the “shock freezing” temperature is reached. The reduced temperature will be maintained for a time sufficient for complete deep freezing (from several hours to a day), and then the temperature in the freezer will return to standard (-18).

This mode is needed so that when freezing a large amount of food that has just been placed in the “freezer”, the freezing process occurs quickly and correctly. The term “correctly” means the so-called shock freezing - this is when the liquid contained in the products bypasses the stage of slow crystallization, thereby without damaging the fibers and structure of the product.

The blast freezing method allows you to preserve the appearance and beneficial properties of vegetables, fruits, berries, meat, and fish.

In addition, if there are other products in the freezer (that were previously frozen), then when the “Super Freeze” mode is activated, they will not undergo partial defrosting from the proximity of newly placed products at room temperature.

Rapid cooling – reducing the temperature in the refrigerator compartment to the lowest possible (+1). In this case, the products are not frozen, but are cooled as quickly as possible.

This function will be very useful if you need to quickly cool (without freezing) drinks for a group of guests, or if a fairly warm soup has been placed in the refrigerator.

Eco mode

Economy mode is a refrigerator operating mode that allows you to save up to 35% of the electricity consumed by the refrigeration unit. When this mode is turned on, the refrigerator will reach the parameters of the maximum economical mode no less than 6 hours after activating the mode.

Vacation mode

“Holiday” mode – designed to save energy during periods when the refrigerator is not used for household purposes for a long time. When operating in this mode, the cooling of the refrigerator compartment is turned off, but the temperature is maintained at +15, and the air constantly circulates.

Types of temperature controllers in refrigerators

You can manually regulate the temperature in refrigerators yourself. To configure the technical parameters of a household appliance for storing food, a mechanism installed by the manufacturers is used. Regulator types:

electronic;
mechanical.

The electronic regulator is a digital thermal relay. The display is located on the top panel on the inside of the main chamber, the outer surface of the refrigerator. Settings are changed using the push-button keys on the controller.

The mechanical regulator looks like a wheel, a rotary disk. The thermostat can be located on the right side of the main chamber, on the top display of the internal body of the refrigerator. You can independently adjust the mechanism by rotating the knob clockwise to increase the flow of cold air.

If the thermostat is broken, we recommend reading the article: How to check the thermostat of a household refrigerator and Repairing a refrigerator thermostat with your own hands.

Refrigerator servicing

The main maintenance activity of the refrigerator that must be performed during its operation is cleaning. After unplugging, thoroughly wash all surfaces using a solution of warm water and a mild detergent. It is very important that the powder or cleaning liquid does not have an abrasive or acidic effect. You should also prevent water from getting on the controls and lighting elements. There is a capacitor installed on the back of the device. It needs to be cleaned and vacuumed at least once a year. Before moving to the internal surfaces of the unit, all products and foreign objects should be removed from the compartments. In addition, Beko refrigerators are equipped with many different containers for storing certain types of products. They should also be removed and washed separately. Before removing the container or pallet, you need to familiarize yourself with the fixing mechanisms - this will allow you to ensure correct fastening when installing the auxiliary component in place. Next, you should gently rinse all the internal surfaces of the chambers. If you do not plan to use the refrigerator after cleaning, then it is better not to connect it to the network.

Adjusting the temperature in refrigerators of famous brands

It is recommended to check the condition of thermostats if a household appliance is not operating correctly. The main reasons for self-regulating the thermostat:

inaccurate temperature readings inside the chamber;
melting ice in the freezer;
the formation of snow and ice deposits on the walls of the main chamber compartments;
significant energy consumption;
no power supply after turning off the device.

The method of setting the thermostat depends on the technical features and design of the refrigerator. Modern models of household appliances allow you to separately adjust the temperature inside the chamber, in the freezer, and in individual compartments. In a single-chamber refrigerator, it is enough to set the mode on one regulator.
