FAQ's

It’s recommended that you clean your dishwasher’s drain filter once a month to avoid bad odours. It’s located at the bottom of your dishwasher’s tub. 

 

To clean the drain filter, pull the bottom rack out of your dishwasher. Remove the filter from the bottom of the appliance by pulling it upwards, then wash it under the tap.

 

Many Beko dishwashers come with the EverClean™ Filter feature. This feature uses a special sprinkler system that cleans the drain filter from the inside. Thanks to the EverClean™ Filter, your Beko dishwasher will require four times less filter cleaning.

Your dishwasher needs to stand level and balanced on its feet to function properly. Try rocking the appliance from side to side or back and forth. If it is wobbling too much, your flooring or the appliance's feet may be uneven.

 

Use a spirit level to check the appliance's balance. If it's off, adjust the feet by reaching under the appliance and finding the lock nuts on the feet. Turn the feet clockwise or anti-clockwise, until they are firmly in contact with the floor. Tighten all lock nuts again by hand.

Beko dishwashers come with a 1.5 m drain hose.

You may be loading your dishes incorrectly or overloading your dishwasher. Make sure all your dishes are tilted properly and that they’re not touching each other or the moving parts of the dishwasher. 

 

If you don’t load your dishes properly in the dishwasher, water sprayed during the wash cycle might cause dishes to strike against, scratch or even break each other.

 

If the problem continues, contact an authorised service agent. 

These noises generally occur in the water pipes. The force of incoming water can cause the pipes to rattle as the dishwasher water valve closes. This effect is known as “water hammer” and is a household plumbing issue. Also, check to see whether the hoses at the back of the appliance are banging against it.

 

If the sound is too loud or if you think damage is being caused to your walls or water pipes, seek the help of a qualified plumber.

It’s normal to hear a clicking noise as your dishwasher goes through a cycle. The clicking sound is either coming from the electronic control panel or from the timer. This is not a malfunction. 

 

If the sound is rhythmic, the cause may be an item inside the dishwasher tub. If you suspect this to be the case, stop the appliance and drain the water inside to remove the object. 

 

If your appliance isn’t operating normally while making this noise, contact an authorised service agent.

It’s normal to hear a clunking noise during the wash cycle. The detergent dispenser will make this sound while its lid is opening. This isn’t a malfunction and will occur about halfway through a wash cycle.

 

If your appliance isn’t operating normally while making this noise, contact an authorised service agent.

It’s normal to hear a humming noise as your appliance is operating. Dishwashers have many parts such as the drain pump that hum audibly. This is not a malfunction.

 

If your appliance isn’t operating normally while making this noise, contact an authorised service agent.
