  Your Beko Dishwasher might not be starting due to several reasons: the power cable could be unplugged, so check if it is properly connected. A fuse might be blown, so check the fuses in your house. The water supply might be cut off, ensure that the water inlet tap is open. The dishwasher door might not be closed properly, so make sure to close it. Finally, the On/Off button might not be pressed, so ensure you have turned on the machine.

  Andrew CisnerosAug 18, 2025
  If your dishes aren't getting clean in your Beko Dishwasher, consider these possibilities: ensure dishes are loaded correctly as described in the manual. The selected program may be unsuitable, try a program with higher temperature and cycle time. Check that the impellers aren't stuck by manually rotating them. Also, the impeller holes or filters could be clogged, clean them regularly. Make sure the filters are installed correctly and that baskets aren't overloaded. Improper detergent storage, insufficient detergent or rinse aid, and an open detergent dispenser lid can also cause this issue. If using powder detergent, store it properly and use enough of it; consider using tablet detergents. Check and refill the rinse aid if needed, and ensure the dispenser lid is closed tightly.

  If your dishes aren't drying properly in your Beko Dishwasher, avoid unloading the machine immediately after the cycle. Slightly open the door and wait for the steam to evacuate, then let the dishes cool before unloading, starting from the lower basket. The selected program may also be unsuitable; try using programs with longer duration for better drying performance.

Why are there lime traces on dishes and glassware looks misty after using my Beko DIS26012?

  Patrick HowellAug 27, 2025
  If you notice lime traces or a misty appearance on your dishes and glassware after using your Beko Dishwasher, the rinse aid level might be insufficient, so check the rinse aid indicator and add more if needed, or increase the rinse aid setting. Also, the water hardness setting might be too low, or the salt level might be insufficient, so measure the water hardness and adjust the setting accordingly. Finally, there might be salt leakage, so be careful not to spill salt when filling and ensure the salt reservoir lid is tightly closed.

Why does my Beko DIS26012 Dishwasher smell?
- J
  Jill MckeeSep 2, 2025
  A bad odor in your Beko Dishwasher could be due to clogged filters. Check and clean the filter system regularly. It could also be caused by dirty dishes sitting in the dishwasher for several days. If you're not running the dishwasher immediately, remove food remnants and run the prewash program without detergent every two days.

Why is detergent remaining in the dispenser of my Beko DIS26012 Dishwasher?
- R
  Regina CardenasSep 5, 2025
  If detergent remains in the dispenser of your Beko Dishwasher, the dispenser might have been damp when you added the detergent, so make sure it is dry before filling. Also, ensure you add detergent shortly before starting the wash cycle. The dispenser lid might be blocked during washing, so arrange dishes to allow the lid to open freely. Improper detergent storage can also be a factor, so avoid storing powder detergent in humid places and consider using tablet detergents. Finally, check if the impeller holes are clogged and clean them regularly.

Why are my dishes getting rust or discoloration in Beko DIS26012?
- S
  Shannon YoungSep 9, 2025
  Rust, discoloration, or surface deterioration on dishes in your Beko Dishwasher can occur for several reasons. Salt leakage can cause this, so be careful when adding salt. Salty food remnants left on dishes for a long time can also contribute, so pre-wash or wash dishes promptly. Check that your electrical installation is properly grounded. Avoid using intensive cleansers like bleach. Do not use metal items for unintended purposes. Low-quality stainless steel cutlery or already corroded items should not be washed in the dishwasher.
