CodeDescription
The display shows PF codeThis indicates there was a power failure. This function protects the dishwasher in the event that the power goes out or the power to the unit is disrupted. When power is returned, and a button is pushed, this will display for 3 seconds and then go away.
The display shows Cd codeCd means Cool-dry. This is an additional drying cycle to assist drying performance. This cycle runs for a further 60 minutes after the course has finished. It can be interrupted at any time by opening the door.
The display shows CL codeCL means Child-Lock. This function is used to lock or unlock the control buttons to prevent all the settings from being changed by a child. It can only be activated during the wash cycle.
The display shows F codeWhen the unit is displaying F, the sensor is measuring the water clarity. After 5 minutes of sensing (except draining and filling), the unit's display will then show the processing time.
The display shows numbers between 1 ~ 19This is not an error code, but indicates the setting of the delay start. To cancel the function, turn the power off. To change the course and option, open the door and select another course and option. Countdown will then continue after door is closed again.
Buzzing sound. (High Temperature Alarm)This is not an error. When you open the door right after heating wash, rinse or dry, buzzing sound would keep on ringing for safety if the inside is heated.
OdorIf the dishwasher is not used daily, we recommend to run a Quick cycle once or twice a day until you have a full load.
In case odor still persists, run a vinegar rinse through a Auto cycle by putting 2cup(500ml) of white vinegar in an upright measuring cup in the lower rack, without detergent.
We recommend to maintain according to the USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS.
