Beko models: Beko front-load washers have a coin-trap filter behind a circular cover at the lower-front of the machine. Beko is part of the Turkish Arçelik Group. SteamCure models have a steam inlet — if a water-adjacent fault appears, check the steam supply line as well as the main inlet.
Common causes
- Load is unevenly distributed — all heavy items on one side
- Single bulky item (duvet, rug) acting as a single unbalanced mass
- Machine not level on the floor
- Worn suspension rods or shock absorbers (recurring issue)
Step-by-step fix
- Open the door and redistribute items evenly around the drum.
- For a single bulky item, add two or three towels to balance the load.
- Close the door and restart the spin cycle.
- If the problem recurs, check that all four levelling feet touch the floor firmly and adjust as needed.
