Can't do a fast spin on quck wash cycle
I've just had a brand new Beko WM74155LS machine installed. I want to do a quick wash with 1500 rpm spin but it won't let me do this, just with a 1000 rpm spin. Is it possible to do a quick wash with a 1500 spin on this model?

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
Beko WM74155LS quick wash limited to 1000rpm spin
- The problem
- A new Beko WM74155LS would not allow 1500rpm spin to be selected on the quick wash programme, only 1000rpm.
- Likely cause
- The accepted reply states this is a normal programme limitation rather than a fault. Full spin is usually only available on cotton programmes, while quick wash and other fabric-specific programmes use reduced spin speeds.
- What fixed it
- No repair was advised. Use a programme that permits full spin, typically a cotton cycle, if 1500rpm is required. The thread indicates the quick wash programme on this model is not intended to run at 1500rpm.
- Checks to try
- Attempted to select 1500rpm on the quick wash programme
- Confirmed the machine would only allow 1000rpm on quick wash

On all washing machines, full spin is usually only allowed on cottons washes. Most other wash programmes have slower spin speeds because they are designed for different fabrics. Quick wash is usually designed for delicate fabrics.
A lot of people these days are wanting quick washes, often with lower temperatures but with full spin speeds. This article describes this issue and the problems associated with it - Washing machines with a 30 degree wash cycle
