E1 means the water pressure is too low, usually does it as standard if you pipe it to a hotwater supply, presumably this is because the pressure sensor is incorrect from manufacture , mine is, and i have an extremely high hot water head pressure. Then again this machine is made by Candy, the inventor of the self igniting appliance and the refrigerator with an evaporator incased in insulation, science an understanding always eluded this company. DT999s are a waste of time, soon your soap tray will fail because it's solenoid is switched by semiconductor that cannot possible handle the fly back current of an inductive load of this size. Probably best using a dish cloth
