If you see a code consisting of numbers and letters on your dishwasher's display, it means there is a problem with the dishwasher. Here's a reference list so that you can identify what the problem is and what steps are needed. If the information code on your dishwasher is not listed here, you can download a user manual specific to your model by going to the Manuals & Downloads page.
