IF0
AEG dishwasher iF0: incorrect water level
Risk level
Medium
Proceed carefully and stop if the check is unclear.
Urgency
High
Quick answer
iF0 means the dishwasher detected an incorrect water-level condition. Preserve the full display and model, then use visible foam, filter cleanliness, drain-hose installation and whether water remains in the sump to choose the next branch before any part or paid repair.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.
Safe checks you can perform
- Capture the decision evidence
- Run the one discriminating check
- Stop at the result boundary

What a technician must be able to justify

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Evidence-led AEG handoff for iF0
What they doA qualified technician should test foam, filter restriction, drain installation, pressure/level sensing or control, using the exact model/PNC and the recorded result for visible foam, filter cleanliness, drain-hose installation and whether water remains in the sump.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Capture the decision evidence
Photograph iF0, the complete message and model/PNC. Record the failed programme stage and visible foam, filter cleanliness, drain-hose installation and whether water remains in the sump. Do not clear the history repeatedly.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.

Run the one discriminating check
Clean the filters, verify the drain hose height against the exact installation manual and record any foam. Use only one reset; do not add detergent or tilt the appliance.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.

Stop at the result boundary
Foam or wrong hose height selects use/installation. Clean filters and correct installation with iF0 returning selects water-level sensing or control; visible leaking switches to the leak branch. If the same result returns after this one controlled pass, stop rather than chaining resets or cycles.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.
