E02
Beko E:02 on a dishwasher: water cut off or inlet tap closed
Risk level
Low
Usually safe to check without specialist tools.
Urgency
Low
Quick answer
On a Beko dishwasher with a display, E:02 flashes when the mains water is cut or the inlet tap is turned off, and the programme pauses. Turn the tap on or wait for the water to return; the wash then resumes on its own.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Before removing the hose to clean the filter, turn off the tap and unplug the dishwasher; otherwise water will come out at the connection.
- Do not confuse E:02 with E:01: E:01 is the overflow or leak warning and, if it does not disappear, Beko says to contact the authorised service.

What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Check of the appliance water inlet
What they doThe technician checks that water reaches the machine and tests the inlet valve, with the tap open, against Beko's specification.
They must show youwater reaching the machine with the tap open and the inlet valve test.
In writingthe cause found, the part replaced with its part number and the reason.
Test wash after the repair
What they doTo finish, the technician runs a programme and checks that the dishwasher fills without E:02 appearing.
They must show youthe appliance filling and washing without E:02.
In writingthe test carried out, the programme used, the result and the date.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Dishwasher inlet tap
- Who:
- you, without opening the appliance.
- How:
- find the tap the inlet hose is connected to (usually under the sink) and check it is fully open.
- Result that matters:
- water being able to reach the dishwasher.
- If it was off:
- turn it on and wait; E:02 should go out and the programme carry on by itself.
- If it was open:
- go on to check the house supply.
- Evidence to keep:
- photo of the tap and of the indicator showing E:02.

Mains water in the house
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- open another tap in the kitchen or bathroom and see whether water comes out normally.
- Result that matters:
- knowing whether there is a general water cut.
- If no tap gives water:
- it is a supply cut; leave the dishwasher paused until it returns.
- If water runs normally in the house:
- check the inlet hose filter.
- Evidence to keep:
- note of when the water went off and when it came back.

Automatic resume
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- with water available and the tap open, leave the machine switched on and paused for a few minutes without changing the programme.
- Result that matters:
- whether the machine detects the water and resumes washing, as the manual describes.
- If E:02 disappears and the programme continues: it was only a lack of water.
- If E:02 keeps flashing with water available: check the hose filter.
- Evidence to keep:
- photo or short video of the indicator after waiting.

Inlet hose filter
- Who:
- you, with the dishwasher switched off and unplugged.
- How:
- turn off the tap, remove the hose, take out the filter, clean it under running water, put it back in its seat and fit the hose to the tap again, as the manual says.
- Result that matters:
- the filter not being blocked by sand, dirt or rust.
- If it was dirty and E:
- 02 does not return after cleaning: it was the filter.
- If it was clean or E:
- 02 returns with water and the tap open: call Beko's authorised service.
- Evidence to keep:
- photo of the filter before and after cleaning.

What it means
Beko's manual calls this the water cut-off warning: if the mains water is cut or the water inlet tap is turned off, the machine cannot take water in and E:02 flashes on the programme indicator. While the problem lasts, the programme is paused and the machine checks the water inlet regularly; when the water is restored, E:02 disappears after a while and the programme resumes. It is a supply warning, not a fault: only if E:02 stays with water available and the tap open does the appliance inlet need checking.

Symptoms and causes
Probable causes · in order
- Inlet tap turned offCommon
The manual gives this as the first cause of E:02 and its troubleshooting table says to make sure the water inlet tap is open.
Evidence: Beko Dishwasher User's Manual BDEN38640FG / BDEN38530FX
- Mains water cutCommon
If the whole house has no water the machine cannot fill; the warning clears by itself once the supply is restored.
Evidence: Beko Dishwasher User's Manual BDEN38640FG / BDEN38530FX
- Dirty inlet hose filterPossible
The manual describes a filter on the water inlet hose that stops sand, dirt and rust, and says to check and clean it if needed.
Evidence: Beko Dishwasher User's Manual BDEN38640FG / BDEN38530FX
- Fault in the appliance water inletPossible
If there is water, the tap is open and the filter is clean but E:02 does not clear, the manual refers you to the authorised service.
