AEG AirDry Not Working
AirDry models open the door about 10 cm at the end of the cycle to let steam escape. If the door no longer opens, the AirDry motor or its mechanism has failed and dishes stay wet. It is a replaceable part.

AEG dishwashers are usually fully integrated in Dubai villas and premium apartments. They share their codes with Electrolux dishwashers, which speeds up diagnosis.

i20 (not draining) and i30 (anti-flood activated) are the codes we see most on AEG dishwashers. Clean the filter first. If the code returns, the pump or a leak needs a technician.
Our AEG process:
AEG MaxiFlex drawers give flexible space for cutlery and utensils, and SatelliteClean uses a double-rotating spray arm for better coverage. If one area of the load comes out dirty, the satellite arm may not be rotating freely because of limescale or debris. Remove and clean it, and check it spins by hand. If the whole load is poor, the circulation pump or filter needs checking.
| Code | What it means | Usual fix |
|---|---|---|
| i10 | Water inlet fault | Check the tap, hose and inlet valve. |
| i20 | Drain fault | Clean the filter and sump; check the hose and pump. |
| i30 | Anti-flood activated | Repair the leak and dry the base. |
The AirDry mechanism has likely failed. It can be replaced.
Yes. See AEG appliance repair.
The AirDry door may not be opening, or the heater or rinse-aid dosing has a fault.
The SatelliteClean arm may not be rotating. Clean it and check it turns freely.
A blocked filter or sump, or a failed drain pump (often shown as i20).
