Beko WMA 1715 W Manual

Unloading
The machine stops automatically after
programmes are completed.
1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
place the filter while turning it clockwise and
at the end, close the filter cover by pushing on
the marked area again.

1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
place the filter while turning it clockwise and
at the end, close the filter cover by pushing on
the marked area again.

Unloading
The machine stops automatically after
programmes are completed.
1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
place the filter while turning it clockwise and
at the end, close the filter cover by pushing on
the marked area again.

Functions After Operation Start
In order to change auxiliary functions, spin
speed or temperature , push the
Start/Pause/Cancel button for a short time to
pause the program. Change the auxiliary
functions , spin speed or temperature from the
available ones which the program step allows.
Then push the Start/Pause/Cancel button for

Unloading
The machine stops automatically after
programmes are completed.
1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
place the filter while turning it clockwise and
at the end, close the filter cover by pushing on
the marked area again.

bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.

Unloading
The machine stops automatically after
programmes are completed.
1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
place the filter while turning it clockwise and
at the end, close the filter cover by pushing on
the marked area again.

Stains can remain if low quality detergents are
used.
• Only use powders specific for automatic
washers, otherwise over foaming and poor
washing performance will be experienced.
• Do not use liquid detergent in your detergent
drawer. Only use liquid detergents with a
dosing ball.
• Do not attempt to use detergents and
bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.
Detergent compartment I

Amounts
Follow the manufacturer’s recommended
amount of detergent given on the packaging.
Adjust the amount according to the dirt
level, the amount of fabric and the softness of
the water. For example, if a small amount of
clothing is washed, put in half the amount of
detergent normally required.
• Do not fill the fabric softener above the max
mark as any excess amount will mix into
the wash water and you will have to re-fill
the compartment.

1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the

3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.

Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.

Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,

auxiliary function is selected.
Additional Laundry
Press the Start/Cancel/Pause button. If the
water level does not exceed the limitations, in
1 to 2 minutes door open led will come on. It
means the washing machine is ready to add
laundry.
If door open led is not lit up after 1-2
minutes, it means the water level inside the
machine is too high and it is not allowed to
open the door and add laundry. (Look at
Programme Cancelling).
If you change your mind as not adding
laundry, repress Start/Cancel/Pause button to
let the programme continue.

is selected, “quick wash” and “pre-wash”
functions can not be selected at the same time.
If “Pre-wash” button is selected first and the
“Quick wash” function next, the led of the
pre-wash function will be off as it is not active
any more.
Detergent and softener dispenser
1Open the drawer.
2Put powder detergent and the fabric
softener in the compartments as shown.
3Close the detergent and softener drawer.
Powders and liquids
The performance of the washing machine
depends on the effectiveness of the detergent.
Stains can remain if low quality detergents are
used.
• Only use powders specific for automatic
washers, otherwise over foaming and poor
washing performance will be experienced.
• Do not use liquid detergent in your detergent
drawer. Only use liquid detergents with a
dosing ball.
• Do not attempt to use detergents and
bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.
Detergent compartment I

Amounts
Follow the manufacturer’s recommended
amount of detergent given on the packaging.
Adjust the amount according to the dirt
level, the amount of fabric and the softness of
the water. For example, if a small amount of
clothing is washed, put in half the amount of
detergent normally required.
• Do not fill the fabric softener above the max
mark as any excess amount will mix into
the wash water and you will have to re-fill
the compartment.

speed or temperature , push the
Start/Pause/Cancel button for a short time to
pause the program. Change the auxiliary
functions , spin speed or temperature from the
available ones which the program step allows.
Then push the Start/Pause/Cancel button for

Unloading
The machine stops automatically after
programmes are completed.
1Turn off the tap. In 1-2 min, after the door
open led lights up, press the door open
button and open the door.
2Press the On/Off button to switch off the
machine.
3Unload the machine and leave the front door
open. Check to see if there is any water left
in the door hood. If so, remove with a soft
cloth.
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3Plastic plugs, supplied inside the protective
bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.

Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.

pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,

Detergent and softener dispenser
1Open the drawer.
2Put powder detergent and the fabric
softener in the compartments as shown.
3Close the detergent and softener drawer.
Powders and liquids
The performance of the washing machine
depends on the effectiveness of the detergent.
Stains can remain if low quality detergents are
used.
• Only use powders specific for automatic
washers, otherwise over foaming and poor
washing performance will be experienced.
• Do not use liquid detergent in your detergent
drawer. Only use liquid detergents with a
dosing ball.
• Do not attempt to use detergents and
bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.

Amounts
Follow the manufacturer’s recommended
amount of detergent given on the packaging.
Adjust the amount according to the dirt
level, the amount of fabric and the softness of
the water. For example, if a small amount of
clothing is washed, put in half the amount of
detergent normally required.
• Do not fill the fabric softener above the max
mark as any excess amount will mix into
the wash water and you will have to re-fill
the compartment.

Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease

bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.

Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.

Powders and liquids
The performance of the washing machine
depends on the effectiveness of the detergent.
Stains can remain if low quality detergents are
used.
• Only use powders specific for automatic
washers, otherwise over foaming and poor
washing performance will be experienced.
• Do not use liquid detergent in your detergent
drawer. Only use liquid detergents with a
dosing ball.
• Do not attempt to use detergents and
bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.

Amounts
Follow the manufacturer’s recommended
amount of detergent given on the packaging.
Adjust the amount according to the dirt
level, the amount of fabric and the softness of
the water. For example, if a small amount of
clothing is washed, put in half the amount of
detergent normally required.
• Do not fill the fabric softener above the max
mark as any excess amount will mix into
the wash water and you will have to re-fill
the compartment.

Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease

bag, designated P, should be placed in the
safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.
7
Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.

pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it

drawer. Only use liquid detergents with a
dosing ball.
• Do not attempt to use detergents and
bleaching agents that contain chlorine and
sulphur.
• Concentrated softener may clog the syphon,
in this case add some water to the softener
liquid.

Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1Turn the bolt heads Canti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease

safety bolt holes as shown.
Attention!
Keep the safety bolts for future
transportation and reinstate them before
transporting your machine. Never transport
your machine without the transport bolts in
position. Any resultant damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Detergent dispenser
It is necessary to remove the detergent
dispenser drawer from time to time to clean
away residue and ensure correct operation.
To remove
Pull out the drawer and press down on the
coloured insert to release it fully from its
housing. Wash the drawer in warm water to
remove detergent residue and before replacing
wipe out the housing.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned every 30-40 washes. Remove
the dispenser drawer and lift out the syphon
and wash in warm water to remove any
softener residue. Refit ensuring that the syphon
is correctly fitted before use.
Maintenance wash
If you regularly use low temperature
programs, certain detergents cause build up
of greasy deposits over time. We recommend
a hot maintenance wash once every 6 months
to clear such accumulation of residue.
Simply run the wash programme “2”
without laundry using the usual amount of
detergent.
Water intake filter
At the end of the water intake connection
and water inlet hose-tap side there are filters.
These filters prevent any dirt and objects
passing into the machine. It is advisable that
these filters should be cleaned every 30-40
washes. To clean these filters, first turn the tap
off. Then, disconnect the hose and clean the
filter with a thin brush. If the filter is very dirty,
you may clean it by pulling out with pliers. To
clean the filter at the tap side of the hose, pull
it out by hand and clean the filter under tap
water. Ensure that the sealing rings are in place
before reassembly.

specification
location
installation
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have hot and cold water supply,
drainage and electrical connection alongside.
Ensure there is clearance each side of the
machine to allow slight side ways movement
during washing and spin drying.
Water inlet connections
Your machine comes with both cold and
hot water connections.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing and connect the hot water using
the hose with red printing. If you have only a
cold water feed a Y adaptor will be required
(available from most D.I.Y. stores).
Cold water supply
For proper operation, the pressure of cold
water should be between 1 and 10 bars. (1
bar corresponds to more than 8 litres per minute
flow rate with a fully open tap.)
Hot water supply
Pressure: 1-10 bar Temperature: 60°C max.
A hot water supply fed from a separate cold
water tank will normally be suitable. Open
outlet gas or electric water heaters must not
be used. Multipoint water heaters or
combination boilers may be suitable if they are
designed to supply washing machines. (Check
your boilers operation instructions or supplier.)
If the hot water supply is unsuitable, connect
both hoses to the cold water supply using a Y
connection. The only disadvantage of this is
the machine will use more electricity to heat
the water and take longer to wash on some
programs.
To prevent water leaks,
four sealing washers are
supplied with the water
inlet hoses inside the
machine. Place these on
each of the hose ends and tighten both ends
fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water taps when not in
use. Connect the cornered end of the hose to
the machine water inlet.

electrical connection
Electrical requirements
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 Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
This appliance must be earthed
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.

Important
Fitting a different plug
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:
1Connect the green - yellow or green (earth)
wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’
or with the symbol for coloured green
and yellow or green.
2Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the
terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or coloured
black.
3Connect 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.

Pump filter warning
When the appliance is in use and depending
on the programme selected there can be hot
water in the filter. Never remove the filter
during a wash cycle, always wait until the
appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
When replacing the filter, ensure it is securely
retightened so as to stop leaks and young
children being able to remove it.
Hoses
To prevent any leakage, check the hoses
every two years. If the machine is placed in
cold ambient temperatures, the water
remaining inside the pump and hoses should
be drained to prevent freezing, empty the
water intake hoses by disconnecting from taps.
Drum
Do not leave any metal objects (pins, needles,
etc.) inside the drum. These objects may cause
rust on the drum surface and stain clothing.
Do not clean the drum with abrasive materials.
Cleaning the pump filter
Warning
Hot water danger! It is possible that app.
15 lt, 90° hot water is inside. Be careful while
taking out the filter!
Remove the plug. Open the filter cover by
pulling at the holder as shown beside.
Before taking out the filter, drain the water
by means of pump drain hose. Take out the
pump drain hose from its place. Take a proper
holder to drain the water inside and then open
the pump drain hose plug.
When all water is discharged, insert the plug
into the pump hose again and replace the
pump drain hose in its place.
Open the filter while turning it
counterclockwise, drain the left water (max 30
ml) on to the filter cover. If there are any
residual parts inside the filter, take them out
and clean the filter before replacing it. Then,
