Quick answer
Seeing E24? On many Bertazzoni tumble dryer units it relates to a door/lock issue. Capture the model plate before resetting.
Model compatibility: Bertazzoni reuses codes across series and model years, so E24 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Homeowners usually see E24 on a Bertazzoni tumble dryer in connection with a possible door or door-lock problem. Independent technicians still match the code to your serial family before ordering parts. Two Bertazzoni units can share a display string yet mean different subsystems; verify for your serial family.
