The AEG FAVORIT 80870 dishwasher may fill up with water and leak when not in use due to a blocked water inlet valve or a malfunction in the anti-flood system. If the anti-flood system is triggered, it may allow water to enter the appliance unintentionally, leading to leaks. The issue may also be caused by incorrect positioning of the water inflow hose or internal blockage in filters or drains.
