Possible Causes

Closed water tap, Blocked inlet filter, Faulty Aquacontrol inlet hose, Defective inlet valve on AEG dishwasher

Safety first: Turn off power and close the water tap.

Verify water supply: Confirm that the tap is fully open and that there is adequate water pressure.
Clean inlet filters: Remove the inlet hose and clean the mesh filters at both ends.
Check Aquacontrol hose: If fitted, inspect the Aquacontrol safety hose for kinks or damage. Replace if the safety device has tripped.
Test fill: Reconnect, open the tap, restore power, and run a short cycle. If F1 persists, the inlet valve may need replacement.
