Error code Waterproof
Appliance Dishwasher
Quick answer

The Waterproof leak protection system has reacted on this Miele dishwasher.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so Waterproof may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Waterproof system has reacted (leak protection); display message on current models, shown as a fault symbol on older ones.

Waterproof means the dishwasher’s leak protection has reacted. On current Miele models it appears as a display message; older ones show a fault symbol instead.

What to do

  1. Switch the dishwasher off.
  2. Close the stopcock.
  3. Call Miele Service.

The Waterproof system keeps working even with the dishwasher switched off, as long as it stays connected to the electricity supply.

What the protection depends on

Miele’s user manual for the G 7000 and G 5000 dishwashers shows the message with a symbol. It says the built-in system protects reliably against water damage only if the dishwasher was installed correctly, is properly maintained with parts replaced when damage is noticeable, and has its water supply faucet turned off during longer absences such as a vacation.

Related codes

  • F70: the Waterproof system activated, programme cancelled and the drain pump starts.
  • Water intake / Open stopcock: a water inlet message with owner checks.
  • F84: a water intake fault.
