What E01 means

On some Beko dishwashers, E01 can indicate a problem with water intake or flow protection systems.

Common causes

  • Tap not fully open
  • Kinked or trapped inlet hose
  • Blocked inlet filter screen

Quick checks you can do yourself

  1. Ensure the water tap feeding the dishwasher is fully open.
  2. Check the inlet hose behind the appliance for sharp bends or crushing.
  3. Turn off the water supply, unscrew the hose at the machine and clean the mesh filter gently.
  4. Refit the hose, switch the water back on and run a quick rinse programme.

Always unplug the appliance and switch off power at the mains before removing panels or working near wiring or water connections.

When to call a professional

If the dishwasher still does not fill properly after hose and filter checks, internal valves or sensors may need inspection by a technician.

Recommended next steps

Keeping hoses un‑kinked and occasionally cleaning filters can reduce E01 water inlet issues.
