Expert Tips: Emptying Water From Beko Dryers Made Simple (With Troubleshooting)

Condensation dryers, like Beko dryers, collect the moisture removed from your clothes in a water tank. If you don’t empty the water tank regularly, it can lead to unpleasant odors, mold growth, and even damage to your dryer.

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll take you through the step-by-step process of emptying water from your Beko dryer. Follow along to ensure your dryer operates efficiently and hygienically.

Materials You’ll Need

• Clean cloth or sponge
• Empty bucket or container

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Locate the Water Tank

The water tank is typically located at the bottom of the dryer door. Open the dryer door and look for a small, removable tank.

2. Remove the Water Tank

Pull the water tank straight out of the dryer. It should come out easily.

3. Empty the Water

Empty the water from the tank into an empty bucket or container. Dispose of the water safely.

4. Clean the Water Tank

Use a clean cloth or sponge to wipe down the inside of the water tank. Remove any lint or debris that may have accumulated.

5. Reinsert the Water Tank

Once the water tank is clean and empty, slide it back into the dryer. Make sure it’s securely in place.

6. Reset the Water Tank Indicator

Some Beko dryers have a water tank indicator light. If the light is on, you’ll need to reset it after emptying the tank.

To reset the indicator, press and hold the “Start/Pause” button for a few seconds. The light should turn off.

7. Start a Test Cycle

Run a short test cycle to make sure the dryer is working properly. If the water tank indicator light does not come on during the cycle, you know that the water tank is empty and the dryer is operating correctly.

• Empty the water tank after every drying cycle.
