  • Do not rotate a powered mechanism, bypass an interlock, test inverter output, or order a motor from i50 alone
  • Do not run an extra test cycle after the source tells you to stop or arrange service for i50

  • 1
    Follow the exact Electrolux maintenance schedule for the dishwasher and keep the model, serial number, and service history available
  • 2
    If i50 begins recurring despite the documented maintenance, stop repeating the same action and request exact-model diagnosis
