bE - The dishwasher has detected an issue with the detergent dispenser mechanism or the machine is not level enough for the dispenser door to operate correctly.
CL - The child safety lock is engaged. All control panel buttons are disabled to prevent accidental operation or cycle changes. This is not a fault — it is an intentional safety mode.
CR - The dishwasher has entered a factory test or service mode. All normal wash cycles are unavailable until the machine is returned to normal operating mode. This is not a hardware fault.
FE - The dishwasher's water level sensor has detected more water in the tub than the cycle requires. The machine has stopped to prevent an overflow onto the kitchen floor.
