Precautionary measures

• Check that the water supply valve under your kitchen sink is fully turned on (turn counterclockwise) • Verify the inlet hose is not kinked, pinched, or twisted behind the appliance • Turn off power to the dishwasher at the circuit breaker for 60 seconds, then turn back on to reset the system • Inspect the inlet hose connection points at both the dishwasher and sink for leaks or loose fittings • Remove and rinse the inlet hose screen filter (located at the water supply connection) if accessible • Ensure the dishwasher door is fully closed and latched securely • Check your home's circuit breaker to confirm the dishwasher has adequate power • Verify that adequate water pressure is reaching other faucets in your kitchen • Run a test cycle after checking all connections to see if error clears • If error persists after these checks, contact a professional appliance repair technician who can perform advanced diagnostics and replace faulty components
