About the basic washing programs of Veko options
- 40'40° halving the washing time - 40 minutes, not 80, which is facilitated by the additional revolutions of the Beko machine drum and a constant temperature of 40 degrees,
- Delicate washing mode for knitwear and viscose products, implying smooth drum movements. The program protects the material from abrasion and the color from fading,
- for children's clothing, several washing and rinsing cycles are combined, the mode is optimal for the clothes of those who suffer from allergic manifestations,
- a special program for dark fabrics involves low temperature and low spin speed with a large volume of water to protect items from possible shedding; for maximum effect, it is recommended to use detergent products in liquid form,
- For cashmere and silk, the Beko machine has a hand wash cycle that uses less water. This blocks increased moisture absorption of fabric fibers and protects them from deformation and stretching,
- The mode for woolen products allows for the most gentle care for them, protecting them from pilling and matting,
- mode for goods with down and feather fillings - for options with a drum capacity of 9 kilograms or more. Along with washing things, feather mites and their metabolic products are eliminated,
- The Beko washing machine's self-cleaning program treats the hoses, drum and detergent trays at a temperature of 70 degrees, removing mold,
- the shirt washing mode helps in washing problem areas of products without damaging the material, drum speeds maintain balance at a temperature of no more than 40 degrees,
- fitness program - for processing sportswear made of cotton and synthetics at a temperature of 40 degrees,
- eco 20°C – for items made of cotton fabrics with slight dirt. Saves up to 80% of energy when compared to a standard cotton cycle, and liquid or gel laundry products are the optimal solution.
Basic rules of use
Before you start using the appliance, carefully read the instructions on how to care for your washing machine. Be sure to take advantage of the recommendations and useful information.
Housewives are often interested in the question of how to properly care for home washing equipment. But first, let's consider proper care of the device before installation and while connecting the equipment.
During installation and connection
- Place the device away from heating devices and flammable materials, avoiding rooms with temperatures below 0C.
- Install the unit on a level, pit-free, hard floor that can support the unit. If this recommendation is not followed, the washing machine vibrates and makes noise, leading to malfunctions.
- Install the unit in a dry, oil-free, dust-free place. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and water. Humidity may cause equipment to stop functioning.
During operation
- If the water supply hose slips, turn off the power immediately.
- Do not wash clothes made from materials for which the machine is not intended (bedding, mats, carpets).
- If you are not using the washing machine, turn off the tap.
- To ensure that the rubber seal is in good shape and not deformed, do not wash clothes stained with cream, oil, or lotion.
- If the drum and walls are dirty, disconnect from the power supply and wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Otherwise, rubber and plastic will discolor, become rusty, parts will become deformed and break.
- If the water supply has stopped, open the tap slowly the next time you supply water.
- Place laundry in the drum so that it does not get caught in the door.
- The clothes that you will wash should not contain foreign (sharp, hard) objects in your pockets.
- Soften water with various additives. You can use Calgon or other special products. Hard water has a negative effect on the water heating element and contributes to unit malfunctions.
- Clean the drain pump filter regularly.
Beko washing machines: everything to save time
One of the most valuable resources in our life is time. Therefore, Beko washing machines have modes for quick and high-quality washing.
- Mini - for cotton with a minimum of dirt at 30 degrees and 39 minutes of time for a full tank. The temperature mode is performed manually from 0 to 90 degrees, which may affect the duration of the process.
- Mini 14´ - at temperatures from 0 to 30 degrees, the Beko washing machine will clean 2 kilograms of clothes in 14 minutes.
- A refreshing wash cycle of 17 minutes is ideal for lightly soiled items to add freshness and eliminate odors,
- Mix 40°C for every day - for options from various materials without sorting at 40 degrees.
The ratio of speed and quality is what active and business people value Veko products for!
How to choose a good refrigerator
There are several criteria that you need to pay attention to when choosing a refrigerator
Dimensions
Standard dimensions of refrigerators: 60 cm width and 55-60 cm depth. These dimensions are optimal for classic apartment layouts
Since the depth and width are in most cases the same, the main attention should be paid to the height - the useful volume, that is, the capacity of the equipment, depends on it
Useful volume
There are no universal values, but:
- for 2-3 people, refrigerators with a capacity of up to 250 liters are optimal;
- for 3-4 people - up to 350 liters;
- for 4-6 people - over 400 liters.
Number of cameras
Chambers are essentially zones with different temperature conditions. The most popular option is two-chamber models (refrigerator and freezer compartment). This is due to the fact that single-chamber refrigerators are less functional, and three-chamber refrigerators are more expensive than classic ones.
Compressor
Simple and inverter compressors can be used. — the latter manage productivity more effectively. In addition, models can use one or two compressors. The advantage of two compressors is a more precise separation of temperature zones and reduced load on each unit. The disadvantage of this design is that repairs are more expensive.
Other characteristics
To understand which refrigerators are high-quality and inexpensive, it is not enough to pay attention to the technical parameters. Experts recommend looking at:
- The “parental control” function is a must-have solution for families with small children. This option will help avoid accidental changes to settings and ensure the safety of the child.
- Quick freezing function - it will simplify the processing of products and help with the preparation of workpieces.
- The angle and direction of door opening - this parameter cannot be ignored when planning a kitchen environment.
Veko washing machines: new times - new functions
In addition to generally accepted standards, new technologies have prompted Beko to develop new functions:
- mode for eliminating lint and pet hair by adding wash cycles and rinsing,
- the necessary locking of the washing machine panels using special keys to avoid unexpected pressing, most often by children,
- aquafusion, which saves powder consumption by storing the latter in the drum of the Beko washing machine until the very end of the process,
- aquawave – electronic imbalance control for uniform placement of laundry in the tank,
- protection against power outages - automatic restart in case of power outages and resumption of washing at the interrupted place,
- a sensor to save from possible overflow, which reacts to exceeding the permissible water level in the Beko washing machine tank,
- half load mode – for a small amount of clothes. It is also important not to overdo the dosage of the detergent product,
- Silent tech™ technology – to reduce noise and spin during the washing process, reduce energy consumption and give a longer life cycle to the washing machine.
Thus, Veko washing machines are products that keep up with the times!
Bosch WLP2026EOE: you can add items when washing
- WxDxH: 60x45x85 cm
- Spin speed: 1000 rpm
- Control: electronic
The model of the brand, which needs no introduction, has many special washing programs (for delicate fabrics, jeans, sportswear, down items, washing mixed fabrics, economical, quick and pre-wash, super-rinse). In combination with the ability to set the washing time, this will allow you to select both the modes and the start time for the washing machine as accurately as possible.
The machine also supports reloading items. True, there is no separate hatch here, like the Samsung one - you can only put forgotten things through the main hatch. But the opportunity is still useful. In addition, many useful functions are provided: protection against leaks, against children, control over foaming and imbalance. True, this model costs almost 2 times more than the previous one.
Convenience and improving reliability are the secret to the success of Veko washing machines
The use of the Veko technique is very comfortable, thanks to several significant improvements:
- LCD display displaying water temperature, spin speed, cycle stage, remaining time until the end of the process, other indicators,
- Volume hatch for loading, including large items - blankets and jackets,
- Expanded drum volume even with the miniature size of the Beko washing machine: with a depth of 35 cm - 5 kg. clothes, 40-45 cm - 6 and 7 kg., and with the standard - 8-9 kg.,
- Special tray for liquid laundry products, for use even with delayed start,
- High-tech heating elements with revolutionary nickel protection, which reduces scaling and protects against corrosion processes.
Veko washing machines are thought out with precision down to the smallest detail!
Veko washing machines: deciphering error codes
Not every Veko washing machine has an error display; some have one or another indicator on:
- H1 – faulty washing machine temperature sensor due to oxidation or damage to its contacts. To troubleshoot problems, test the thermistor wiring and measure the resistance. If information is displayed that differs greatly from the standard, the sensor must be replaced.
- H2 - display when a tubular electric heater malfunctions - the use of low-quality water with a considerable number of impurities that form scale on the heating element or drops in electrical voltage in the network.
- H3 – the heating element of the Beko washing machine remains in working condition and the set temperature is exceeded with the first and second indicator lights constantly burning. Problems with the temperature sensor or a control unit error cannot be ruled out.
- H4 – malfunction of the fill valve triac with the first and third indicators visible. It is necessary to monitor the condition of the wiring; diagnostics of the latter is recommended.
- H5 there is a problem with the drain pump, as evidenced by the second and third lights being on. The pump is cleaned if clogged, or replaced if there are significant defects.
- H6 – closure of the triac with notification by the first three indicators. Apparently there was a short circuit in a section of the triac, then it is replaced. The integrity of the wiring of the unit elements, the control module and the electric motor of the Beko washing machine are also monitored; if necessary, the components are repaired or replaced.
- H7 – problems with the controller related to the liquid level with the first three indicators lighting up. Possible reasons are electrical locking of the hatch doors, a malfunction of the pressure switch or module, or simply a closed valve.
- H11 – problems with the motor circuit of the Beko machine. In this case, it is important to evaluate the condition of the tachogenerator, bearings, brushes or wiring. If all the mentioned actions do not lead to results, then testing the triac is necessary.
The error codes described above will help you independently identify breakdowns and eliminate their causes.
Advantages and disadvantages of Atlant CJSC products
Joint Stock Company Atlant (Belarus) was organized in 1993. The advantages of washing machines are reliability, since they are manufactured using high-quality imported parts.
The advantages include:
The devices are distinguished by their compactness. There is an Atlant washing machine with a depth of no more than 32 cm; there is always a place for this in a small apartment. The equipment comes with official operating and troubleshooting instructions.
Atlant machines do not have innovative options, for example, they do not have drying. The disadvantage is the weak spin. Some models drain water at class C level, which is considered a good indicator. The rest belong to class D - this is not the highest characteristic value.
Only commutator motors are used, hence the low cost. But they are inferior to inverter ones in efficiency, durability and performance characteristics. A number of Atlant machines belong to classes A and A+, so the owner will have to pay 10-40% more for electricity than users of class A++, A+++ equipment. There are various errors in the design, for example, when opening the hatch, a little water drips onto the floor.
What are the features of the renovation?
Models from Beko have design advantages that are especially useful when replacing bearings:
- The device is much easier to disassemble than most analogues from other brands.
- Usually you don't even have to take out the tank to replace the bearing.
- Simply remove the front of the tank to remove the drum. The back remains in place.
- It is necessary to remove the entire tank when the bearing is destroyed - when it is necessary to remove its remains.
What other features of disassembly:
To gain access to the front of the tank, remove the front panel. Next, unscrew the lower counterweight. Disconnect all tubes and wiring.
Advice. Before disconnecting the wires, fix the original position in the photo - this will help you later when you assemble the device.
The front of the tank is held in place by 12 clamps - all of which must be removed to access it. Now all that remains is to remove the back panel, remove the pulley mounted on the drum axle shaft, and then remove the drum itself. Please note that the bearings fit on the axle shaft with an interference fit, so it must be knocked out by carefully striking it with a rubberized hammer.
The screw connection holding the pulley on the drum shaft must not be removed.
