The dishwasher should only be operated on
the voltage specified. For electrical safety,
only earthed plugs and sockets should be
used. Always use the fused plug provided
with the appliance. The user is responsible
for meeting these basic safety requirements.
The life of your machine and your safety
depend on you using an electrical installation
compliant to standards.
Do not use an extension cable.
When disconnecting your machine from the
mains supply, always pull from the plug.
Never pull the cord itself.
Never allow your children to play with your
dishwasher.
Dishwasher detergents contain irritants and
abrasives. These ingredients might have
caustic effects in the eyes, mouth and throat.
They can be extremely dangerous if
swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Check that the detergent receptacle is empty
after completion of the wash cycle.
Keep detergents out of childrens reach and
do not put detergent in the machine until
right before you start the washing
programme.
The water in your dishwasher is not suitable
for drinking, for this reason do not allow
your children near your machine when the
front door is open.
Never allow your children to play on or sit
onto the front door when the front door is
open.
After unpacking your machine, keep the
packing material out of childrens reach.
Warning !
ong cutlery, such as ladles and long
knives, etc must be placed horizontally on
top of the full cutlery basket or on the
racks to prevent accidental injury.
The appliance is not intended for use by
young children or infirm persons without
supervision.
This dishwasher has been designed to clean
your dirty dishes at home.

produced softening salts in the salt dispenser
of your machine.
Never use materials other than specially
produced detergents and rinse-aids in the
detergent and rinse aid dispensers of your
machine.

old appliances carefully. Please ensure old
machines do not become a threat to child safety.
It is known that children lock themselves in
unused machines. To avoid such a problem it
is advised that you cut the mains cable off and
break the door latch so it does not lock.
The door of your machine is designed to support
the weight of a full basket when the lower
basket is pulled all the way out. Never place
any other load on the door, otherwise the
machine may tip over.
After using the dishwasher always close the
door as an open door can be a hazard.
Do not open the door whilst the appliance is
in operation.

When deciding on where to install your new
dishwasher, ensure that the position of your
dishwasher makes it easy and quick for you to
place the dishes in the dishwasher and also to
take them out and store away after the
dishwashing is completed.
Avoid placing the dishwasher where the ambient
temperature is likely to fall below. 0 degrees
C. (32° F)
When positioning your appliance, take care not
to damage your flooring, pipes wall coverings
etc. Do not move the appliance by pulling by
the door or handle
Before you insert the plug into the wall socket
make sure that the voltage and the frequency
shown in the rating label corresponds to your
electricity supply.
We recommend that this appliance be
connected to the mains supply via a suitable
switched and fused socket in a readily accessible
position.
Should the mains lead of the appliance become
damaged or need replacing at any time, it must
be replaced by a special purpose made mains
lead which can only be obtained from a Beko
Authorized Service Agent.
If the supply cord or the mains lead is damaged
please do not replace it by your own. The
supply cord or the mains lead must be replaced
by a Beko Authorized Service Agent personnel
or a similarly qualified person.
If the fitted moulded plug is not suitable for
your socket, then the plug should be cut off
and an appropriate plug fitted.
Destroy the old plug, which is cut off as a plug
with a bared cord could cause a shock hazard
if inserted into a socket elsewhere in the house.
The moulded plug on this appliance
incorporates a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need
to be replaced an ASTA approved BS1362 fuse
of the same rating must be used. Do not forget
to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing
the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until
a replacement fuse cover has been fitted.
Colour of the replacement fuse cover must be
the same colour as that visible on the pin face
of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any
good electrical store.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of
this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals on
your plug, proceed as follows:
1 Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked E or
with the symbol or coloured green and
yellow or green.
2 Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked N or coloured black.
3 Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked L or coloured red.
With the alternative plugs a 13A fuse must be
fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the
main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified
electrician.

mains supply must be a minimum of 0.3 and a
maximum of 10 bars.

Dishwashers require fairly soft water. If the hardness exceeds 6°dH lime scale will form on crockery. To avoid this
an automatic system adds a special salt to soften the water so that you obtain the best possible cleaning and
drying performance.
To find out the hardness level of your water contact your local water company, or use the enclosed test strip to
measure the water hardness:
Press the Program Selection Button before you switch the appliance on and keep this button pressed down.
Switch the appliance on using the On/Off Switch, then release the switch.
Hold the Program Selection Button down for 3 seconds.
The default regeneration phase recorded in your machine will be shown in "r" format and Start / Pause /
Cancel indicator light will start flashing. "r1" will appear on the screen if the regeneration phase recorded in
your machine is "r1".
elease Program Selection button.
Water hardness can be set to the desired level by pressing the (+) and (-) buttons. (Compare the test strip with
the Degrees of Hardness Table). The display shows the appropriate message.
Once you have set the hardness level press the Start / Pause / Cancel Button to save the value. The Control
Indicator on the Start/Pause Button now lights up permanently.
If the hardness level is saved as "r1", the salt level warning will never light under any circumstances regardless
of the amount of salt left in the salt container.
If the water hardness at your location is over 45°dH, you should consider using a water-softening device for your
dishwasher.
When using well or rain water, the installation of pre-filter is recommended.
After moving house, remember to reset the water hardness for your new location.
Warning !
The electricity and water connections of the dishwater must be in compliance with the instructions
in this booklet.
