Error F12 or F13

In case of error code F12 or F13, something's wrong with the water supply. Check if the faucet is open. Is this the case? Test the water pressure. Put a bucket under the faucet to do this. The bucket will be filled with about 10L of water within 1 minute. If this isn't the case, you should contact a plumber. Clean the filter and check if the supply hose was installed correctly. You'll find the correct installation in the manual.

The bucket will be filled with about 10L of water within 1 minute. If this isn't the case, you should contact a plumber.

Error F32, F78, or FXX

Does the display show error code F32, FXX, or F78? There's a technical error. Turn off the dishwasher and wait a couple of seconds. Turn the machine back on and select the desired dishwasher cycle.

Error F33

Do you see 'F33' on the display? That means that the dishwasher door isn't properly closed. Check if there's something blocking it, such as dishes, food rests, or dirt and remove it. Then, close the door properly and turn the dishwasher back on.

Error F601

Does the display show error code F601? The AutoDos function has an error. Check if the PowerDisk and the holder have been placed correctly. In the manual, you can find the correct installation. Turn the function on and restart the dishwasher. Isn't the error code going away? Contact Miele. In the meanwhile, turn off the function and add detergent manually.
