Hello everybody 'Lurgs' here welcome to my channel and today it's how to top up the salt on your Beko
Dishwasher, now isn't salt wonderful we use it to grit our roads in the winter to keep us safe
but most of all we put it on our fish and chips lovely, only ever use specific dishwasher salt
and this is available in all supermarkets, on most Beko dishwashers you should get a salt
warning light come out which means that you need to fill up the salt, using salt in your dishwasher
prevents any white film on your dishes it also acts as a water softener which is especially
useful if you live in a hard water area such as us, and it can prevent any limescale from building
up, you need to remove the lower basket and the salt reservoir is over here on the left hand side
on some older Beko dishwashers you have a visual indicator with a float inside
and this should be dark when it's full of salt and lighter when it's empty but this one here is
hard to see so I'm just going to top up the salt anyway, gently unscrew the lid anti-clockwise and
you will get some water come out of here this is completely normal you can just mop that up
with a small sponge if you want to, but this will drain during the next dishwasher cycle
this is my dishwasher salt that I've got
here if you've still got the original funnel that came with the dishwasher
use that this one is actually from a different model and doesn't fit,
so I'm going to use a different one now it's easier if you remove the lower spray arm just
to give you better access, now I've just got this small funnel here just place that inside
and then you can start topping up with your salt, now this salt reservoir on this Beko dishwasher
that I've got here takes about two kilograms, now this bag of salt that I've got is about three
kilograms so it's about two thirds of that if it's completely empty, but basically what you're
doing is you're pouring in the salt letting it dissolve down slowly until you can see it build up
until it's nearly at the top of the level near the cap, so just keep going, shake the funnel
and there's a link above now about how to remove and clean the filter on a Beko dishwasher,
you can see here that it's dissolving down into the reservoir
so just keep going with the salt it will dispense the water as it's doing that, that is completely
normal, if you drop any salt granules inside the dishwasher which I've just seen there
you can just mop those up with a soapy sponge near the end because obviously salt is corrosive
and you don't want it damaging the inside of your dishwasher, and there's a link above now about how
to keep your Beko dishwasher hygienically fresh you don't have to fill the salt completely up
to the top near the lid you can just top it up with a little bit, if you do fill it up
completely to the top it will look like this one where the salt is right near the top near the lid,
just take a soapy sponge and just mop up any of those salt granules that fell into the dishwasher
then remember to put the lid back on if this is a bit dirty and scummy you can just give that a wash
in your washing up bowl with some hot soapy water, just screw that on tightly, fabulous,
then remember to put the lower spray arm back in
then remember to put the lower basket back in
and someone is very interested in what I've been doing this is Daisy the puppy Dalmatian
and then it's time to get the kettle on and have a lovely cup of tea!
