Cause and remedy
During the food evacuation process, moisture ingress
into the oil circulation system in the vacuum pump
has occurred. If the  sensor lights up red, the
drawer is locked for further use.
 Carry out a drying cycle (see "Cleaning and care –
Carrying out a drying cycle").
The oil in the vacuum pump has become extremely
hot.
 Clean the drawer and leave it to cool down for
1 hour before starting another vacuuming process.
 When carrying out a number of consecutive
vacuuming processes, wait a minimum of
2 minutes between each process to prevent the oil
from overheating again.
 If the problem occurs again, contact your Miele
dealer.
The required final vacuum could not be achieved.
 Switch the drawer off and back on again.
 Start the vacuuming process again with lower
vacuum settings if necessary.
After intensive use of the drawer, the oil in the
vacuum pump has become extremely hot.
 Leave the drawer to cool for an hour before
starting another vacuuming process.
 When carrying out a number of consecutive
vacuuming processes, wait for at least 2 minutes
between each process. This prevents the oil from
overheating again.
