This guarantee is limited to the cost of repairing the product. To the extent permitted by law, the Manufacturer does not accept 

and will not be held liable for any financial loss incurred in connection with the failure of any product to operate in accordance

  General compensation for inconvenience. 

Important Notes 

1.  Your product is designed and built for domestic household use only. 

2.  The guarantee will automatically be void if the product is installed or is used in commercial or non-residential 

domestic household premises, unless we have previously agreed to the installation environment. 

3.  The product must be correctly installed, located and operated in accordance with the instructions contained in the 

User Instructions Booklet provided with your product. 

4.  Professional installation by a qualified Electrical Domestic Appliance Installer is recommended for all Washing 

Machines, Dishwashers and Electric Cookers (as incorrect installation may result in you having to pay for the cost of 

repairing the product). 

5.  Gas Cookers must be professionally installed by a Gas Safe (or Gas Networks Ireland for Republic of Ireland)

void if the product is resold. 

8.  This guarantee does not apply to graded sales (where the product is purchased as a “second”). 

 

9.  Possession of a copy of these terms and conditions does not necessarily mean that a product has the benefit of this 

guarantee. If you have any questions, please call our Call Centre on the number set out above. 

10.  The Manufacturer reserves the right to terminate the guarantee if its staff or representatives are subjected to physical 

or verbal abuse in the course of carrying out their duties. 

11.  Optional extras, where available (i.e. extendable feet) are supplied on a chargeable basis only. 

Does Beko offer replacements? 

This is a repair-only guarantee. On occasion, the Manufacturer may at its sole discretion, replace your product with a new 

product instead of carrying out a repair. Where a replacement is offered, this would normally be an identical model but when 

this is not possible, a model of similar specification will be provided. The Manufacturer will cover the costs and arrange for the 

delivery of the new product and for the return of the old product. Any costs related to disconnecting the faulty product and 

installing the replacement product will not be borne by the Manufacturer unless previously agreed to in writing. The original 

guarantee will continue to apply to the replacement product; the new product will not come with a new guarantee. 

When will the repair take place? 

Our Engineers work Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.00pm. Appointments outside these hours may be possible at the sole 

discretion of the Manufacturer but cannot be guaranteed. Whilst our Engineers will endeavour to minimize inconvenience and 

to meet requests for specific timed appointments, this cannot be guaranteed. We will not be liable for delays or if it is unable to 

carry out a repair because a convenient appointment cannot be arranged. 

Will there be any charge for the repairs? 

It is your responsibility to provide evidence to the Engineer that your product is covered by this guarantee with a proof of 

purchase. The Manufacturer reserves the right to charge for the reasonable cost of any service call if: 

  You cannot provide evidence that your product is covered by this guarantee. 

  Where a service call has been made and the engineer finds that there is no fault with your product. 

  That your product has not been installed or operated in accordance with the User Instructions Booklet. 

  That the fault was caused by something other than faulty materials, defective components or manufacturing defects. 

  For missed appointments. 

Payment of these costs are due immediately upon the Engineer providing you with an invoice. The Manufacturer reserves the 

right to terminate the guarantee if you fail to pay the costs for the service call in a timely manner. 

If you are a resident of the United Kingdom, this guarantee will be governed by English law and subject to the English Courts, 

save where you live in another part of the United Kingdom, in which case the law and courts of that location will apply. 

If you are resident in the Republic of Ireland, this guarantee will be governed by Irish law and the Irish courts will have 

jurisdiction. 

This guarantee is provided by Beko plc. Beko House, 1 Greenhill Crescent, Watford, Hertfordshire. WD18 8QU.
