Why are my clothes stiff after washing in my Beko Washer?

  Juan MorenoSep 9, 2025
  If your clothes are stiff after washing in your Beko Washer, it could be due to using an insufficient amount of detergent, especially if the water hardness is high. Use the appropriate amount of detergent according to the water hardness. The detergent may have been placed into the wrong compartment or mixed with the softener; if detergent is put in the prewash compartment although a prewash cycle is not selected, the machine can take this detergent during rinsing or softener step. Softener should not come into contact with detergent when being added. Wash and clean the drawer with hot water.

  If you notice water coming from the bottom of your Beko Washer, the issue might be with the hoses or the pump filter. Ensure that the seals of the water inlet hoses are securely fitted. Also, tightly attach the drain hose to the waste pipe or sink. Finally, check that the pump filter is completely closed.

  If your Beko Washer isn't discharging water, the water outlet hose might be clogged or twisted; in this case, you should clean or straighten the hose. Also, the pump filter may be clogged, so clean the pump filter.

Why didn't my Beko Washer spin?
- T
  Thomas CookAug 27, 2025
  If your Beko Washer didn't spin, it could be due to an imbalance of laundry in the machine, which may cause the program to complete without spinning. The automatic spin correction system might have been activated because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum. Rearrange and re-spin the laundry. Also, the machine will not spin if the water has not completely drained, so check the filter and the drain hose.

  If the program cannot be started or selected on your Beko Washer, the machine may have switched to self-protection mode due to an infrastructure problem, such as line voltage or water pressure issues. Reset your machine by pressing the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button for 3 seconds.

What does it mean when the “Lid” light is flashing on my Beko Washer?

  John EdwardsSep 22, 2025
  The flashing “Lid” light on your Beko Washer indicates the safety period until the door lock is opened. For your safety, the front door can only be opened 2 minutes after the program is completed, and the “Lid” light will flash during this period.

  If your Beko Washer isn't working and no lights are on, check if the plug is properly plugged into the mains outlet. Also, the fuse may have blown, so check the fuse. Ensure that there is no electricity cut off. Finally, make sure the “On/Off” button has been pressed.

  If the “Washing” and “Start/Pause/Cancel” lights are flashing after the program is started on your Beko Washer, water may have been cut off. You can restart your machine by pressing the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button for a short time after ensuring that the water is not cut off.

Why is my laundry turning gray after washing in my Beko Washer?
- J
  Jill HarrisSep 7, 2025
  Laundry turning gray after washing in your Beko Washer can be caused by several factors. You may be using an insufficient amount of detergent for a long time, washing at low temperatures for a long time, using too little detergent for hard water, or using too much detergent. Use the recommended amount of detergent appropriate for water hardness and the laundry. Select the proper temperature for the laundry to be washed. If the water hardness is high, using an insufficient amount of detergent can cause laundry to turn gray over time.

  If your Beko Washer isn't removing stains effectively, make sure you are using the recommended amount of detergent appropriate for the laundry load. Avoid overloading the machine. Ensure you've selected the correct program and temperature for the type of laundry you're washing. Also, verify you're using the right type of detergent and placing it in the correct compartment, avoiding mixing detergent with bleaching agents.
