The display shows E2060, or E:20-60 on current models, and the wash may heat slowly. The owner manual says the appliance has detected that the heating element is calcified. It is a descaling reminder, not a broken part. Thermador's website words the same code a little differently, and the displayed meaning can differ by generation, so we confirm it by model number. Hard water brings the buildup back sooner.
1. Empty the racks. 2. Run a dishwasher descaler as its label directs, using the hottest full cycle. 3. If your model has the water softening system, refill the salt and set the hardness to match your water, since the manual says to operate with the softener. 4. Run a normal cycle afterward and see if E2060 returns.
Yes. Current manuals print the code with a colon and hyphen, and support pages drop the punctuation. The manual's meaning is a calcified heating element, and we confirm the details by your model number.
Not at once. A scaled heating element heats slowly and dries poorly, so results suffer first. Descale soon, because the buildup keeps growing in hard water and makes the fix harder.
Yes. The manual says to descale and to operate with the water softening system if one is fitted. We can look at how yours is set up during a visit.
