New fridge freezer

Hello so I have a new fridge freezer as title suggests.


Now I left it running empty for six hours, then I transfer frozen food from old to new one, fridge is working excellent, house around 16c,, op condition 10c too 32c

I left dial on 3, now fridge is lovely and cold around 2c.

Using salter themostat for fridges and freezer to check.

I tried the freezer which is full, and showing 13/15c.


Is it because it new and now, even tho food already frozen, or is it do I need to change dial in fridge as house around 16c /17c.


It is becko so has freezer guard technology.

So should I try setting 2, cause I though you should turn it up etc, eg 4/5 for maxuim cold in fridge but someone said does operating effect in freezer when temps colder outside.

    Let things settle down for a day first but the freezer should be around -18 and fridge +5.

    I have a Beko Fridge Freezer, might be the same model. My Freezer -18 and the fridge depending on where you put the thermometer is 3c. That's on a setting of 3.

    Did you take the temp after leaving it for six hours? I don't think the freezer has had enough time to get to the correct temp yet. Check it tomorrow and if it's still not -18 give them a call under warranty.
