What AE
actually means.
SKS reports a water leak. The machine sounds an alert for 10 seconds, runs the drain pump on and off, and turns itself back on if you cut the power, until the leak is resolved.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from SKS's own guidance for AE on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Shut the SKS machine's water supply off at the valve.
Let the drain pump keep working and dry any water you can reach at the floor.
Book a visit; the manual sends AE straight to service.
What not to do
Do not be alarmed when the machine restarts after you switch it off. SKS built it to keep draining until the AE condition is gone.
