Cause and remedy
The boiling temperature of the water has changed as
the altitude of the new location for the appliance
differs from the old one by at least 300 m.
To adjust the boiling temperature, you need to
descale the appliance (see "Care" in the "Cleaning
and care" chapter).
The door is not properly closed.
Close the door.
The door seal is not correctly fitted.
Press it in all the way round the door to make sure
it is fitted evenly.
The door seal is damaged, e.g. cracks can be seen.
Replace the door seal.
This can be ordered from yor Miele dealer (see the
end of this booklet for contact details).
The lamp is defective.
Contact your Miele dealer to have the lamp
replaced.
Something is obstructing the control panel.
Remove the obstruction.
The obstruction sensor is very sensitive and can
prevent the panel opening or shutting if it picks up a
signal.
Open/close the control panel manually (see end of
this section)
If the problem occurs again, contact your Miele
dealer.
Finish at
The temperature in the oven compartment is too high,
e.g. after a programme has finished.
Open the door and let the oven compartment cool
down.
These functions are not generally available in
maintenance programmes.
