Our F&P DD601V2 double dishdraw is showing error 'U3' and the water does not totally drain out after a cycle, any ideas? Thanks
This applies to all DD601 and DD603
dishdrawers.
U3 is either one of the following:
- Drain pump is
blocked.
- Drain hose is blocked.
- Sprayarm or rotor not turning
freely.
- Motor electronics have failed.
- Machine set to 'LP' on a
high pressure water supply.
Often it's just the last one,
"Machine set to 'LP' on a high pressure water supply.", as this can be
unintentionally changed by a user from an uncommon course of events.
Sometimes, due to the technical design of the way the buttons work, if
water bridges the 2 "Programme" and "Eco" buttons (inside on the top
right of the tub), pressing either one, or both, (or just having your
finger in the water) for longer than 5 seconds brings up a special mode
that a user, in their ignorant attempts to get out of it, can
erroneously change the pressure setting, subsequently causing a U3
error. It happened to me once when I was cleaning the machine, wiping
around the Programme buttons.
To change to the proper High or Low
Pressure settings:
1) LCD Display on. Hold the Programme and Eco
touch switches simultaneously for 5 seconds.
2) Machine beeps and
"HP" or "LP" is displayed in the LCD.
3) Push the Start/Pause
button to toggle between them.
4) Push the Power button when correct
selection complete.
