Safety Checks You Can Do
10
-
1• Turn off the dishwasher power at the circuit breaker for 60 seconds, then turn back on to perform a full reset
-
2• Verify the circuit breaker dedicated to the dishwasher has not tripped; flip it off and back on if needed
-
3• Confirm the main water supply valve under your kitchen sink is fully turned on (turn counterclockwise)
-
4• Check both hot and cold water supply lines connected to the dishwasher inlet for visible kinks, twists, or pinches; straighten any restrictions
-
5• Inspect the inlet hose for cracks, leaks, or damage and ensure all connections are hand-tight
-
6• Locate and clean the inlet filter screen (typically found where the inlet hose connects to the dishwasher) by removing debris or mineral buildup with a soft brush
-
7• Ensure the dishwasher door is completely closed and latches securely with an audible click
-
8• Test water pressure at your kitchen sink to confirm adequate household water pressure is available
-
9• Unplug the dishwasher for 5 minutes and plug it back in to clear any temporary electronic faults
-
10• If error persists after these checks, contact a USA-based Bertazzoni service technician for inlet valve replacement or control board diagnosis
