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.

installation & operating
instructions and washing guidance
a
WMA 510 S
WMA 510 W
You can locate the washing machine
anywhere (except bathrooms, showers and
away from rain, damp places and water) as
long as you have a 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.
Attention!
Never place your machine on a carpet. This
prevents air circulation. The electrical
components of the machine may overheat and
may cause damage.
Please ensure the power, water supplies
and waste are suitable, if in doubt, consult a
qualified plumber or electrician.
Different methods of floor construction can
result in an increase in vibration/noise during
spin modes.
If these symptoms are experienced please
ensure firstly that all four feet are in firm contact
with the floor to minimise any out of balance
vibration which may be generated.
Additional information is available by
request.
In addition to this, washing machines should
not be installed on carpet, foam backed
laminate, or parquet flooring where the nature
of these types of flooring can also contribute
to the inefficient operation of the washing
machine on the spin cycle.
Water inlet connection
Your machine comes with cold water
connection only.
Connect the cold water using the hose with
blue printing or colour.
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.)
To prevent water leaks,
sealing washers are
supplied with the water inlet hose inside the
machine. Place these on the hose end and
tighten both ends fully.
In order to prevent any water leakage and
damage, turn off the water tap when not in
use. Connect the right angled end of the hose
to the machine water inlet.
The washing machine must only be
connected with the new hose provided and
old hoses must not be reused.
Drain hose
The drain hose should be placed and secured
either at the side of the sink A, directly to the
drain B or directly to the waste water
inlet C.
The hose should not be bent.
Using method A, the drain hose should be
secured with the elbow so that it can not
be dislodged.
The waste pipe must only be connected
into the foul drains and not surface water
drainage system.
The hose should be placed between 20 and
80cm from the floor level and must not be
extended otherwise the machine may not
empty the waste water.
The minimum diameter of any external pipe
must be 32 mm.
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.
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.
In order to avoid hazards, damaged supply
cord should be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or similarly qualified people.
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:
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.
Green and yellow
or green
Make sure that you have an earthed power
outlet socket rated at 13 amps (minimum).
Attention!
If you use your machine as built-in, the
socket must be reachable after installation, or
a separate switch (which can disconnect the
two poles) must be used in the installation.

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 and softener residue and
before replacing wipe it dry.
Syphon
The syphon (coloured insert in the dispenser)
must be cleaned. 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, for example 40˚C, 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 “Cotton
90” 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.
You turned the machine on, but the indicator
light is not lit
Have you plugged in and switched on at
the socket? Check the power cable, or for a
blown fuse. Check the front door is properly
closed.
After your machine starts operation, if
Start/Pause/Cancel button starts flashing then
door is not locked. Open and close the door
again and press Start/Pause/Cancel button to
begin washing program again.
Machine does not take in water
Check the door for proper closure. Either
tap closed or water inlet filter is clogged.
Turn the programme selector to the
programme required.
If the “wash” led on the program progress
display and Start/Pause/Cancel button are
flashing either there is no water or tap is
off. Check your taps. Press
Start/Pause/Cancel button. If the problem
persists unplug your machine, turn off tap
water and call customer service.
Water is syphoned / discharged
Check if the drain hose is positioned as
described on page 6.
If the machine vibrates or is too noisy
Have all the transit bolts and packing been
removed?
Is the machine touching something?
Are all the feet resting firmly on the ground?
Have the lock nuts been secured?
Has the recommended wash load been
exceeded? (See page 13 for max program
loads)
Water coming from beneath the machine
Check the water inlet and drain hoses.
Tighten the connections. The washers of the
hoses may be worn out or the pump filter may
not have been closed properly.
Foam coming out of the detergent dispenser
Check whether your detergent is suitable
for automatic machines. Next time use less
detergent.
Pump does not drain water
Check Rinse Hold button has not been
selected in error. Clean the pump filter. Do not
attempt to remove the filter if the machine is
full of water. Check whether the drain hose is
bent or not. If there is a need to clean the
pump filter, refer to the pump filter cleaning
section on page 15.
Pre-wash indicator light on the program
follower is blinking
Cancel child lock
Removing transport safety bolts
The transport safety bolts must be removed
before any operation of the machine.
1
Turn the bolt heads C anti-clockwise until
the bolt can be partially withdrawn.
2
Remove them and the rubber bushes by
pulling outwards. An up/down action and
a small squirt of washing up liquid will ease
removal.
3
Plastic 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.
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.
