| Code | Fault / Diagnostics | Appliances | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| AL03 | Heater element fault Info: The heating element in the dishwasher has failed or there is an issue with the wiring to the element. | Dishwasher | |
| E | General sensor or communication error Info: On an induction hob, this indicates a general fault, often a communication problem between the control and the power module, or a sensor issue. 5 Elite Techs Verified | Hob | |
| EF0 | Leak detected / AquaStop activated Info: The anti-flood device in the base of the machine has been activated, indicating a water leak. | Washing Machine | |
| EH0 | Power supply problem Info: The power supply frequency or voltage is outside the acceptable parameters for the appliance's electronics. | Washing Machine | |
| E1 | Refrigerator compartment sensor fault Info: The temperature sensor (thermistor) for the fresh food compartment is faulty (open or shorted). | Refrigerator | |
| E2 | Freezer compartment sensor fault Info: The temperature sensor (thermistor) for the freezer compartment has failed. | Refrigerator | |
| E3 | Defrost sensor fault Info: The defrost sensor, located on the evaporator coil, is malfunctioning. | Refrigerator | |
| E4 | Defrost heater failure Info: The defrost heating element or the thermal fuse in the defrost circuit is open. | Refrigerator | |
| E8 | Ice maker sensor error Info: A fault has been detected with the ice maker's sensor or mechanism. | Refrigerator | |
| E9 | Water dispenser valve fault Info: Problem detected with the water inlet valve that supplies the dispenser. | Refrigerator | |
| E10 | Water inlet fault Info: The machine is not filling with water or not filling fast enough. This can be due to a closed water tap, a kinked inlet hose, or a blocked filter in the inlet valve. | Washing Machine | |
| E11 | Water inlet valve fault Info: Problem with the solenoid on the water inlet valve or wiring to the valve. | Washing Machine | |
| E20 | Drainage fault / Water not emptying Info: The drain pump is blocked, the drain hose is kinked or blocked, or the drain filter is clogged. | Washing Machine | |
| E21 | Difficult drainage Info: The machine is draining too slowly, possibly due to a partially blocked pump or a fault with the drain pump itself. | Washing Machine | |
| E35 | Water level too high / Overflow Info: The pressure sensor (analogue) has detected an overfill situation. This could be due to a faulty pressure sensor or a stuck water inlet valve. | Washing Machine | |
| E40 | Door lock fault Info: The door is not closed properly, or the door lock mechanism is faulty. | Washing Machine | |
| E41 | Door open error Info: The control board has detected that the door is open when it should be locked and closed. | Washing Machine | |
| E52 | Motor fault / No drum rotation Info: A signal from the motor's tacho generator is missing, indicating the motor is not turning. This could be due to worn carbon brushes, faulty wiring, or a defective motor. | Washing Machine | |
| E61 | Insufficient heating Info: The water is not heating to the correct temperature within the allotted time. This is likely due to a faulty heating element or NTC temperature sensor. | Washing Machine | |
| E71 | Wash temperature sensor (NTC) fault Info: The resistance value from the wash NTC sensor is out of range, indicating it's either open-circuit or short-circuit. | Washing Machine | |
| E90 | Configuration / Communication Error Info: There is a communication fault between the main electronic control board and the display board. | Washing Machine | |
| F | No cookware detected Info: The induction hob does not detect a compatible pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is not centered correctly. | Hob | |
| F0 | IGBT sensor fault Info: Failure of the temperature sensor for the power transistor on the induction module. | Hob | |
| F1 | Oven temperature sensor open Info: The main oven NTC temperature sensor is defective (open circuit) or its connection to the control board is loose. | Oven | |
| F2 | Oven temperature sensor shorted Info: The main oven NTC temperature sensor has short-circuited. | Oven | |
| F3 | Control board fault Info: Internal error on the main power board, often related to EEPROM data corruption. | Oven | |
| F4 | Communication failure Info: Communication has been lost between the main control board and the display or touch control board. 5 Elite Techs Verified | Oven | |
| F5 | Door lock mechanism error Info: The oven door lock has failed to engage or disengage, often during a pyrolytic cleaning cycle. | Oven | |
| F07 | Stuck button on control panel Info: A button on the oven's control panel has been pressed continuously for too long, or the touch board is faulty. | Oven | |
| F8 | Overheating detected Info: The oven has detected a temperature higher than its design limit. This is often caused by a failed cooling fan or a stuck relay on the control board. | Oven |
