Explanation of the IH or 1H error
The IH or 1H error in a Fagor dishwasher indicates that the appliance is in delayed start mode. This mode allows users to program the start of the wash cycle for a later time, rather than starting immediately. The combination of letters and numbers in the code, such as 1H, 2H, 3H, etc., shows how many hours of delay were programmed for the wash start.
Why does this error occur?
The IH or 1H error occurs when a user has intentionally selected a delayed start for the wash cycle. This can be useful, for example, if the user wants the dishwasher to start washing at night when electricity rates may be lower. It is not an error per se, but a feature of the dishwasher that allows for programming the start of the wash cycle at a more convenient time.
Solution to the IH or 1H error
There are two options for fixing the IH or 1H error:
- Cancel the delayed start and reprogram the dishwasher to start immediately.
- Locate the “Cancel” button on the dishwasher control panel.
- Press the “Cancel” button to disable the delayed start option.
- Select the wash cycle and desired options.
- Press the “Start” button to begin the wash cycle immediately.
- Start the dishwasher after the delayed time has elapsed.
- Select the wash cycle and desired options.
- Select the “Delay Start” option on the control panel.
- On some Fagor dishwasher models, it may be necessary to press the “Start” button to activate the delayed start.
- The dishwasher will display a countdown of the delay time on the screen, if the model allows.
- Once the programmed delay time has elapsed, the dishwasher will automatically start the selected wash cycle.
By understanding the IH or 1H error in a Fagor dishwasher and following the provided steps, users can easily program the start of their wash cycles at the most convenient time for them. Whether starting the wash cycle immediately or after a delay time, these instructions ensure that the dishwasher operates efficiently and as programmed.
