3.13 Fault Code F11: Drainage Fault
Symptom:
Water present in appliance and is not being drained off.
See Table 080-3 for model-specific fault indications.
Background information:
After each drain pump step, the circulation pump operates for 2 seconds and
heater pressure switch B1/13 checks the water level. See Figure 080-8. If it is
too high (large quantity of residual water remaining in the cabinet), the
drainage time is extended. If, after a further check, the water level is still too
high, then the program is interrupted, the fault code is saved and the drain
pump is activated.

Fault code F11 is also registered if heater relay 1K1 is not activated after the
fault code F51 register check; see Section 080-3.29.
Cause:
Drain hose kinked.

the drain hose is held in place within the bucket or container.
