Problem solving guide

Installation work and repairs to electrical components of this appliance must only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

What to do if:

... you cannot switch the appliance on.

Check whether the mains fuse has blown.

If this is not the case, then disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply for approx. 1 minute. To do this:

switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug, or

switch off at the isolator, or

withdraw the mains fuse.

Reconnect to the mains supply and switch the appliance on. If it still will not start, contact a qualified electrician or the Miele Service Department.

... the fan can still be heard after the appliance has been switched off.

The appliance is fitted with a fan which removes steam from the oven.

The fan will continue to run for a while after the appliance has been switched off.

... the water container has become harder to put into the appliance and take out again.

Lightly lubricate the coupling seal on the water container with silicone grease, as described in "Coupling seal".

... the heating-up phase lasts an unusually long time.

Check the bottom of the water container.

If a thick layer of limescale has built-up, check the water hardness level that has been set. Set the correct water hardness level for your water supply (see "Setting the water hardness") and descale the appliance as described in "Descaling".

If the water hardness level was in fact set correctly or the problem occurs again, contact the Service Department.
