Beko DIN28R22 programming guide

The user manual isn't very useful to program the dishwasher quickly.  So here's my quick guide.

The buttons are labelled like this:

Key locations



Enter programming mode

  • Press "On/Off" (key 1)
    • to turn on machine
  • Press and hold both the 
    • "program select" (key 2) and the 
    • "time delay" (key 9) at the same time for 3 seconds
  • Wait for 3-2-1 countdown.

Navigating the programming mode

Press the "program select" (key 2) to rotate around the programming options. 
Press the "time delay" (key 9) to rotate around the selections for each programming mode.

When programmed don't forget to save the new settings by pressing the "On/Off" key

Programming Options

  • L - interior light (some models)
    • L 0 off
    • L 1 on
  • P - rinse aid
    • P 0 - 0 rinse aid doses
    • P 1 - 1 rinse aid doses
    • P 2 - 2 rinse aid doses
    • P 3 - 3 rinse aid doses
    • P 4 - 4 rinse aid doses
  • S ???
  • r - water hardness level ( adjust the 'regeneration adjustment switch' on the  inside of the dishwasher with a screwdriver to match the level set here.  See image below
    • r 1 Softest level - least salt
    • r 2
    • r 3
    • r 4
    • r 5 Hardest level - most salt
  • a (looks odd - a bit like a d) - automatic detergent detection
    • a 0 off
    • a 1 on

Cancel current program and drain early

  • Press and hold both the 
    • "program select" (key 2) and the 
    • "time delay" (key 9) at the same time for 3 seconds
"0:01 is displayed, close the door of the product and wait for the draining process complete. Draining is completed in 2 minutes and the machine gives an audible warning when it is completed." 

Hidden programming mode

Don't know what any of these modes do add comments if you know and I'll update the post.
  • Start from dishwasher off statePress "On/Off" (key 1)
    • to turn on machine
  • Press and hold both the 
    • "on/off" (key 1) and the
    • "program select" (key 2) at the same time for 3 seconds
  • Wait for 3-2-1 countdown.

Hidden programming mode options:

  • 1 Hft
  • 2 1Ft
  • 3 5Ft
  • 4 EEP
  • 5 dno
  • P/A (flashing) 4:02

Couple of additions to complement your post:

The 'S'programming option is to control the volume of the button and completion sounds. Might only apply to some models but, where available, are 0 = Off, 1 = Medium and 2 = High.

The 'r' option is, as you say, related to the softener regeneration and is essentially how you describe it. However I did read somewhere that the setting actually refers to how many litres of water must pass through the machine before regeneration of the softener occurs, with lower numbers referring to higher volumes (i.e. high numbers mean it regenerates sooner, due to the water being harder).

I can elaborate on some aspects of the service mode too, based on some experimentation:

1 Hft - Not sure, think it's to do with factor setup/testing
2 1Ft - Same as above
3 5Ft - Service Function. Runs through an accelerated programme testing each function in turn, will trigger error codes if any aspect fails. These same error codes are triggered by normal 'user' washing cycles but are only visible in this menu.
4 EEP - EEPROM, which can be reset here (not entirely sure what this does - whether it clears our old error codes and, perhaps more likely, resets everything back to default - a 'reboot' perhaps)
5 dno - Demo mode. Basically makes the display cycle through its features and, I suspect (didn't test this), prevents someone starting a dish wash programme whilst in a shop.
P/A (flashing) 4:02 - Hardware/software version numbers
