Do I need to plumb in the Beko BT96DBS?
No, the BT96DBS is a condenser dryer with a water container that collects the extracted moisture. You simply empty the container after use, though it can also be connected to a drain hose for automatic emptying.
How do I empty the water container?
The water container is located in the lower section of the dryer. Pull it out, empty the water into a sink, and slide it back into place. Do this after each cycle or when the water tank indicator lights up.

How do I clean the condenser unit?
The condenser unit should be cleaned regularly, ideally every three months or when the condenser clean indicator appears. Access it from the lower compartment, remove it, and rinse it thoroughly with water.
Why is my dryer taking longer to dry clothes?
Possible reasons include a clogged lint filter, a full water container, a blocked condenser, or overloading the drum. Check these components and adjust the load size according to the program recommendations.
What should I do if the dryer displays an error code?

Some (simple) malfunctions can be fixed by the end-user without creating any safety issues or leading to unsafe operation provided these instructions are followed. (See the “I Want to Fix it Myself” Section.) Therefore, other than the parts in the “I Want to Fix it Myself” section that end-users are allowed to fix themselves, having the appliance fixed at an authorised service station is recommended in order to prevent safety issues and to maintain the Beko product warranty.
