Does this guide apply to your appliance?

Match the brand, device type and complete display code. The same code can mean something different on another product family or market; a series name does not confirm every model in that series.

No exact model number is recorded here. Confirm the code in your appliance manual before following a check.

Likely causes

  • The water tap is not fully open.
  • Household water is interrupted or not flowing adequately.
  • The inlet hose is kinked or obstructed.
  • The inlet hose filter may need cleaning, if your model’s manual permits this.
  • An internal water-inlet fault may require professional diagnosis.

What to try

Check the water supply and tap

Easy
  1. Confirm that the household water supply is on and flowing.
  2. Make sure the dishwasher’s water tap is fully open.
  3. Check your dishwasher manual for any model-specific water-supply requirements.

Inspect the inlet hose

Easy
  1. Look along the visible inlet hose for kinks or crushing.
  2. If the hose is damaged, stop using the dishwasher and shut off the water.
  3. Arrange replacement or service rather than attempting an internal repair.

This step is marked caution. Stop if you are not qualified to continue.

Clean the inlet filter only if your manual allows it

Moderate
  1. Check the manual for your exact model’s filter-cleaning instructions.
  2. Switch off and unplug the dishwasher, then close the water tap.
  3. Disconnect the inlet hose only as described in the manual and clean the filter as instructed.
  4. Reconnect the hose, open the tap and check for leaks before using the appliance.

This step is marked caution. Stop if you are not qualified to continue.

Contact authorised service if i10 remains

Professional

This is a service referral, not a do-it-yourself repair procedure.

  1. Stop troubleshooting if the error remains after the basic supply and hose checks.
  2. Contact an AEG-authorised service provider for diagnosis; internal repair may be required.
  3. Provide the dishwasher’s model or PNC so the advice can be matched to your appliance.

This step is marked professional. Stop if you are not qualified to continue.

The code returned or the check did not help?

Avoid repeated resets and do not select a replacement part from the code alone. Record the exact code, full model number, when it appeared, and the checks you tried with their results. Share these details with the manufacturer or service technician.

Disconnecting power does not establish that internal components are safe to touch. This guide does not authorize opening electrical components or bypassing safety devices.
