CodeWhat it means
AE
E1, EI
Leak detected
Water has collected in the base under the tub and lifted the leak float switch. The dishwasher stops to protect your floor.
IEWater fill error
Not enough water entered the dishwasher in the time allowed, so the cycle cannot continue.
OEDrain error
The dishwasher could not pump the water out. Standing water is often left in the bottom of the tub.
bEToo many suds
The dishwasher detected excess foam, which can spill out and trigger leak protection.
CLControl lock on
This is not a fault. The control lock is on, so the buttons will not respond.
FEOverfill error
More water entered the dishwasher than it should hold. It runs the drain pump to remove the extra water.
HEHeater error
The dishwasher could not heat the water properly, or the water got hotter than it should. Dishes may come out poorly cleaned or wet.
LEWash motor error
The main wash motor is not running normally, so water is not being sprayed through the dishes.
nESpray pump (vario) error
The part that sends water to the different spray arms is not working normally, often because a dish is in the way.
tETemperature sensor error
The dishwasher's temperature sensor (thermistor) reported a problem, or the water got much hotter than normal.
