in this order.
Each step comes from Fisher & Paykel's own guidance for A70 on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the machine off, then on again.
Run one cycle to see if the alarm repeats.
If it does, book a visit to have the temperature sensing checked.
