Why are the washing results poor in my Beko QDW696?

  Sarah DrakeAug 13, 2025
  Poor washing results with your Beko Dishwasher can stem from several causes. You might not be using enough detergent, especially for full loads or hard water; in this case, increase the detergent amount. Hard water itself can be a culprit, so increase the water softener dosage and consider using additional detergent and rinse aid. Check and clean the spray arms and filter system, as they may be blocked. Ensure you're loading the dishwasher correctly, allowing water to reach all surfaces, and that you are not overcrowding it. Also, check your mains water pressure to ensure sufficient water fill. If you pre-wash items, rinse them thoroughly to remove any dishwashing detergent to prevent oversudsing. Finally, ensure your powder detergent is fresh and stored properly.

  If your dishes aren't drying in your Beko Dishwasher, it could be due to improper loading. Make sure all items are properly tilted for good drainage, avoiding nesting of dishes and silverware. Another reason could be that the rinse aid supply is depleted; add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser.

Why does detergent cake in the detergent dispenser of my Beko QDW696?
- N
  Norma BaileyAug 28, 2025
  If the detergent is caking in the dispenser of your Beko Dishwasher, several factors could be at play. If you're using powder detergent, the dispenser might be damp; ensure it's dry before adding detergent and start the dishwasher immediately. With gel detergent, it might be sitting too long; start the dishwasher soon after adding it to prevent drying. Avoid overfilling the dispenser, ensure the cover closes tightly, and check the cover's fit. Do not place large items in front of the dispenser. Also, old detergent can cause this issue; use detergent within one to two months of purchase and store it in a cool, dry place.

  Chipping and breakage in your Beko Dishwasher can occur due to improper loading. Load dishes carefully, following the instructions, and ensure glassware doesn't touch other dishes. Remove items carefully after washing. If you only wash dishes every few days, use the pre-wash cycle daily or hand-rinse dishes before loading.

Why is there pitting on stainless steel items in my Beko QDW696 Dishwasher?
- P
  perezsusanSep 8, 2025
  Pitting on stainless steel items in your Beko Dishwasher can be caused by prolonged contact with salty or highly acidic foods, or with undissolved or highly concentrated detergent. Remove spots with silver polish and rewash. Wash items soon after use, or pre-wash if they won't be washed immediately. Avoid overloading the cutlery basket and spilling detergent directly on flatware. Ensure the dispenser cup is properly closed.
