Causes of error E1:

• out of order TEN;

E3

If an error occurs that is related to the liquid filling level, then the device reports this malfunction with the E3 code. In case of this discrepancy, water will be drained.

The reasons for the breakdown of E3:

• breakdown of the pump, which is responsible for draining the water;
• the aquastop hose is defective;
• the filter is clogged;
• the pressure switch broke.

E4

Code E4 reports that the Bosch Silence Plus dishwasher has a malfunction of the fluid flow switch. Simply put, water is not properly distributed over the entire volume of household appliances - it doesn’t get into some compartment, but to a greater extent somewhere.
