f03 fault code flashing on hotpoint ultima wf865?

Had the machine for 3 months and it just started displaying f03 this afternoon, i cant find any explanation on the net about this code so im hoping someone here can shed some light on it. The machine is still going as I switched all power off to it for 5 mins then switched on again and all seems to be well, but im curious as to what the code meant or means for the future

Had the same code...opened the front bottom cover which had the tech notes. Checked water lines in and Drain lines...there was a kink in the drain line...re-routed the lines and also shortened the water intake lines...I had originally leghtened them because the washer was not next to the sink...all seems to be ok.

I got the same today - apparently it's something to do with the part that controls the flow and/or temperature of water into the machine. They're sending an engineer.
