Quick answer
Seeing E14? On many Bertazzoni dishwasher units it relates to a drainage issue. Capture the model plate before resetting.
Model compatibility: Bertazzoni reuses codes across series and model years, so E14 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
If your Bertazzoni dishwasher shows E14, start from the idea of a possible water-drainage problem — then confirm in the manual. Do not open sealed, gas, or live panels to “prove” it. Exact Bertazzoni fault text shifts by model and control generation — always confirm against your documentation.
Signs

Why it happens

Before you call
Safe checks you can make
These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.
Check and clean the accessible filter if your model has one
Check the visible drain hose for kinks or blockages
Confirm the drain or standpipe access is clear
Record the full Bertazzoni model and serial numbers before contacting a technician
Important safety warning. Do not open internal panels, access high-voltage wiring, or bypass any safety device. If you see smoke, sparks, a burning smell, or water near electrical parts, switch the appliance off at the outlet if it is safe to do so and call a professional.
Please avoid
What not to attempt

When to call a technician
If you are unsure at any point with E14 on screen, contact Bertazzoni Appliance Repair for on-site confirmation rather than opening panels yourself.
