Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Is the Zanussi i10 code the same as AEG i10?
A: Yes, they are identical. Zanussi and AEG are both Electrolux brands and use the same components and diagnostic systems on their dishwashers.
Q: My Zanussi dishwasher is new and shows i10 on first use — what do I check?
A: On first use, confirm the water supply tap is fully open and the transit packaging has not left a kink in the inlet hose. On brand new machines, i10 is almost always an installation issue rather than a product fault.
Q: Can I use my Zanussi dishwasher on a rinse programme if i10 appears on a hot wash?
A: If i10 appears, no water is entering on any programme. The rinse programme will also fail. Fix the supply issue before running any cycle.
