Something weird happened to my 3 year old Beko fridge freezer. I put something in, closed the door and turned away. I heard an odd noise, it sounded a bit like something electrical shorting! A ‘fffzzz’ noise. And a small cloud of white smoke came up from behind the fridge freezer. I panicked at that point and thought it was on fire and switched it off at the mains and removed the plug.
But there was no sign of actual fire and no more ‘smoke’, it cleared after a few minutes although there was an odd smell in the kitchen for a day or two afterwards. I didn’t dare switch it on again, all the food’s been used or binned.
So what happened? Any ideas? Should I get someone to check it before I use it again?
thanks.
