Hi, we have just had the same problem too. How did you fix it?

STUART 05-05-2020
Just found this is what the problem is. Find it hard to believe as the thing has only been used 5 times: The waste water in the machine cannot be discharged • Water discharge hose is clogged. • The filters of your machine might be clogged. • Power off-on your machine and activate the program cancellation command. • If the error continues, contact your service agent. Good luck

My pause/start button isn't working so it won't turn on. Booklet says it's the inlet pipe filter, does anyone know which end the filter is, dishwasher or under sink

reply | This was helpful (7) Read more

John Richardson 08-06-2021
The inlet filter is the filter one often forgets: it's at the dishwasher end of the cold water supply hose (the only water feed). You'll need some long nose pliers to gently pull it out. I got this dishwasher 2nd hand and mine wouldn't work until I'd cleared this filter. Solid waste probably got pushed back into this filter in transit.

According to the manual, this means the water can't be expelled from the machine. It suggests: " Water discharge hose is clogged. • The filters of your machine might be clogged. • Power off-on your machine and activate the program cancellation command. • If the error continues, contact your service agent. " Of course, what it doesn't mention is that this might also mean the drain pump has broken (not the main motor, the smaller pump that empties the machine).

We have owned our CDW60D18 for a total of 13 months. Stopped working, P" & P3 buttons flashing simultaneously. Can't find the problem. It fills & Flushes without problem, so no blockages thanks, has full electrical power. Probably the main programme circuit board. it's destined for the tip. Waste of money. Buy better quality as this is a false economy.

John Richardson 27-01-2021
Sounds like exactly the problem I had with my one of the same model. My also filled, and claimed to be not filling. There was some gunk in the water inlet filter - the filter people tend to forget and which can only be accessed from the outside and back of the machine. If you unscrew the water inlet pipe, you can pull it out with a gentle tug from a pair of pliers. I cleaned mine out, and although it was a bit temperamental for a while even after that, it's settled down and worked consistently..

2/2 ...since then. It did take a few cycles, including a couple of hot washes with Dishwasher cleaner (which I don't normally use but it may have helped). P6 - the most intense programme, worked first, then the others. P1 (rinse only) always worked. Hope that helps. John.

Frequently Asked Questions about Currys Essentials CDW60W18 Dishwasher

Our support team searches for useful product information and answers to frequently asked questions. If you find an inaccuracy in our frequently asked questions, please let us know by using our contact form.

After my dishwasher has finished it's cycle, the container that holds the tablet hasn't opened. How is this possible? Verified

This problem is often caused by dishes that are blocking the container. Check this before turning on the dishwasher.

This was helpful (7960) Read more

The dishwasher does not heat the water anymore, why is that? Verified

It is likely that the heating element is defective. Have it replaced. When in doubt, contact the manufacturer.

This was helpful (7421) Read more

Can I use regular salt in my dishwasher? Verified

No, regular salt may contain substances that can cause damage to your appliance.

This was helpful (3170) Read more

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

This was helpful (1280) Read more

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

This was helpful (1028) Read more

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

This was helpful (740) Read more

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

This was helpful (670) Read more

Is it a problem to have scratches on the metal on the inside of the dishwasher? Verified

The inside of most dishwashers is made of stainless steel and are not affected by scratches.

This was helpful (666) Read more

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.

This was helpful (654) Read more

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.
