How to Fix a Beko Washing Machine Not Taking Fabric Softener
If your Beko washing machine isn’t dispensing fabric softener properly, don’t worry—this is
a common issue and can be easily resolved by following these steps.
Step 1: Measure the Correct Amount of Detergent
Begin by ensuring you’re using the correct amount of detergent for your load size.
Overusing detergent can prevent the softener from being dispensed during the wash cycle.
Use a measuring cup or follow the detergent package instructions for guidance.
Step 2: Avoid Overfilling the Detergent Drawer
If too much detergent is poured into the compartment, it can block the fabric softener
section of the drawer, causing issues. Make sure to fill the drawer carefully, ensuring that
each compartment is used correctly for detergent and softener.
Step 3: Clean the Detergent Drawer
Remove the detergent drawer and clean every part of it thoroughly. Sometimes, detergent
and fabric softener residue can build up, causing blockages. Use warm water and a soft
brush (such as an old toothbrush) to scrub away any buildup in the drawer.
Step 4: Check the Softener Compartment
Ensure that the softener compartment is not clogged or damaged. If needed, clean it
thoroughly, as residue can accumulate and cause the softener not to flow correctly into the
drum.
Step 5: Reinsert the Drawer and Run a Test Cycle
Once the drawer is clean and all blockages are cleared, reinsert it into the washing
machine. Run a short test cycle with a small load of laundry to check if the fabric softener
is being dispensed properly.
By following these simple steps, you should be able to fix the issue of your Beko washing
machine not dispensing fabric softener, ensuring your laundry comes out soft and fresh
every time!
