Possible Causes

Heater not reaching temperature, Faulty NTC sensor causing repeated heating attempts, Low inlet water temperature, Excessive foaming or turbidity sensor misreading

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before testing heater or sensors.

  • Check water temperature: Run the hot tap before starting the dishwasher to ensure hot water enters from the beginning.
  • Observe heating: After 20 minutes of operation, the door should feel warm. If not, investigate heater and NTC as in heating fault entries.
  • Detergent: Use the correct amount of dishwasher detergent to avoid excessive foam, which can confuse sensors.
  • Clean turbidity sensor: Clean the sump and turbidity sensor window as described in F6.
