Unlock the secret: resetting your beko integrated dishwasher in minutes

Resetting your Beko integrated dishwasher can resolve common issues, such as malfunctioning buttons, drainage problems, or error codes. Here’s a detailed guide to help you reset your appliance effortlessly:

1. Power Off and On

The simplest method is to power off your dishwasher by unplugging it or flipping the circuit breaker. Wait for a minute, then plug it back in or turn the breaker back on. This will reset the dishwasher’s control board and may resolve minor glitches.

2. Reset Button

Some Beko integrated dishwashers feature a dedicated reset button. Locate the button, usually hidden behind a panel, and press and hold it for 5-10 seconds. The dishwasher will emit a beep or flash its lights to indicate a successful reset.

3. Cancel Cycle

If your dishwasher is running a cycle when an issue arises, you can cancel it to reset the appliance. Press and hold the “Cancel” or “Stop” button on the control panel for 3-5 seconds. The dishwasher will stop the cycle and drain the water.

4. Hard Reset

For more severe issues, a hard reset may be necessary. This resets the dishwasher’s firmware to its original settings.

• Unplug the dishwasher.
• Press and hold the “Start” button.
• While holding the “Start” button, plug the dishwasher back in.
• Continue holding the “Start” button for 5-10 seconds.
• Release the “Start” button.

5. Error Code Reset

If your dishwasher displays an error code, you may need to reset it to clear the code. Consult your dishwasher’s user manual to determine the specific steps required for error code resets.

6. Electrical Reset

In rare cases, an electrical reset may be necessary to restore power to the dishwasher.

• Turn off the power to the dishwasher.
• Locate the electrical panel and flip the circuit breaker or remove the fuse.
• Wait for a few minutes.
• Turn the power back on.

7. Factory Reset

As a last resort, you can perform a factory reset to completely restore your dishwasher to its original settings.

• Unplug the dishwasher.
• Press and hold the “Start” and “Cancel” buttons simultaneously.
• While holding both buttons, plug the dishwasher back in.
• Continue holding the buttons for 5-10 seconds.
• Release the buttons.

Troubleshooting Common Dishwasher Issues

If resetting your Beko integrated dishwasher does not resolve the issue, here are some common problems and their solutions:

• Not draining: Check the drain hose for kinks or blockages. Clean the filter and ensure the drain pump is operating correctly.
• Not filling: Verify that the water supply is turned on and the inlet hose is not kinked. Check the water inlet valve for proper operation.
• Error codes: Refer to your dishwasher’s user manual to identify the specific error code and follow the recommended troubleshooting steps.
• Malfunctioning buttons: Clean the buttons with a damp cloth and ensure they are not damaged. Resetting the dishwasher may also resolve this issue.
