about E:3000.

Can I clear E:3000 myself?
Turn off the water faucet feeding the dishwasher. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Will opening the faucet wider clear Gaggenau E:3000?
No, the faucet setting has nothing to do with this number. The code says the machine's water protection has stepped in.
Is Gaggenau E:3100 the same as E:3000?
Yes, the manual gives both the same description. Turn off the water faucet and book a visit.
