Dishwasher displays E24 and may not drain; often occurs at the start or end of a cycle.

Safety: Turn off power before moving the dishwasher.

• Check hose routing: Ensure the drain hose rises in a loop to the recommended height (usually under the worktop) before connecting to the sink trap.
• Inspect for kinks: Pull the dishwasher out slightly and straighten any sharp bends in the hose.
• Clean sink connection: Remove the hose from the sink trap spigot and clear any blockage. If the kitchen sink was recently installed, ensure the knockout plug in the spigot has been removed.
• Test drain: Run a drain-only or cancel cycle to verify that water now pumps out without E24.
