What to do if clothes come out damp after drying in my Beko DS 8312 PX?

  Robert FordAug 19, 2025
  If your clothes are coming out damp after drying in your Beko Dryer, it could be due to several reasons. You may have used a program not suitable for the laundry type; check the maintenance labels on the clothes and select a program suitable for the clothes’ type or use time programs as extra. The fibre filter pores might be clogged, so wash the filter with warm water. The condenser might be blocked, so wash the condenser (for products with a condenser). The filter drawer might be clogged; clean the sponge and filter cloth in the filter drawer (for products with a heat pump). Avoid loading the drying machine excessively and ensure laundry is adequately wrung by performing a higher speed wringing on the washing machine.

How to fix the filter cleaning warning symbol on my Beko DS 8312 PX Dryer?

  If the filter cleaning warning symbol/LED is on or flashing on your Beko Dryer, it indicates that the fibre filter might not be cleaned. Clean the filter. It is also possible that the filter slot is clogged with lints, so clean the filter slot. A layer of fluff might have accumulated, clogging up the lint filter pores; wash the filter with warm water. The condenser might also be blocked, so wash the condenser.

  If your Beko Dryer does not turn on or the program cannot be started, first ensure that the power cord is plugged in. Check that the loading door is properly closed. Verify that a program is set and that the dryer is not in Stand-by position. Also, check if the child lock is activated and turn it off if necessary.

  If water drips from the loading door of your Beko Dryer, fibres might have gathered on the inner sides of the loading door and the loading door gasket. Clean the inner surfaces of the loading door and the loading door gasket surfaces.

  If your Beko Dryer program terminated prematurely for no reason, ensure that the loading door is completely closed. There might have been a power outage; press the Start/Stand-by button to restart the program. The water tank may also be full; empty the water tank.

Why isn't the wrinkle removal program working on my Beko Dryer?
- B
  Bobby MartinSep 1, 2025
  If wrinkles are not being removed with the wrinkle removing program on your Beko Dryer, you may have placed an excess amount of laundry in the machine; place only the specified amount of laundry. The steam application time may be selected at a low level; choose a program with a high amount of steam. Also, after the program is complete, the laundry may have stayed in the machine for too long; take the laundry out as soon as the program finishes and hang it out.

  If the water tank warning symbol/LED is on or flashing on your Beko Dryer, it could mean that the water tank is full, so you should empty it. Alternatively, if the product is connected directly to the water drain, the water discharge hose might have collapsed; check the water discharge hose.

  If clothes have shrunk, hardened, or spoiled after drying in your Beko Dryer, it is likely that a program not suitable for the laundry type was used. Check the maintenance labels on the clothes and select a program suitable for the clothes.

  If the laundry odour is not lessened with the odour removal program on your Beko Dryer, it may be because an excess amount of laundry was placed in the machine; place only the specified amount of laundry. Alternatively, the steam application time may be selected at a low level; choose a program with a high amount of steam.
