Troubleshooting and error codes
| Problem | Possible cause and remedy |
|---|---|
| The display is dark. | - Check whether the time of day display is set so that it does not show in the display (see "Settings-PI"). - Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. If it has, contact a qualified electrician or Miele. |
| The oven does not heat up. | - Check if the system lock has been activated. - Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. If it has, contact a qualified electrician or Miele. |
| The time of day or "12:00" is flashing in the display. | There has been a power cut. Confirm the time of day with the OK sensor, or reset the time. You will have to enter programmed cooking processes again. |
| A noise can be heard after a cooking process. | This is not a fault.The cooling fan continues to operate after a programme has finished. It switches itself off once the oven has dropped to a certain temperature. |
| The door cannot be opened at the end of a pyrolytic cleaning programme. | Switch the appliance off. If the door lock will still not open please contact the Miele Service Department. |
| The interior lamp is not working. | Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply: Switch off and unplug at the socket, or disconnect the fuse, or switch off at the isolator as appropriate. ■ Turn the lamp cover a quarter turn anti-clockwise to release it and then pull it downwards to take it out. Replace it with a new lamp (Osram 66275 AM, 230 V, 25 W, G9). Refit the lamp cover and turn it clockwise to secure it. Reconnect the appliance to the mains electricity supply. |
| Cakes and biscuits are not cooked properly after following the times given in the chart. | - Check that the correct temperature has been set. - Check whether there has been a change to the recipe. The addition of more liquid or more eggs makes a moister mix which would need longer to cook. |
| Cakes / biscuits are browning unevenly. | There will always be a slight unevenness. If browning is very uneven check that the correct temperature was set and that the correct shelf level was used. With conventional heat the material and colour of the tin used plays an important role. Light coloured, shiny tins are less suitable. |
| A fault code appears in the display F + a number | You can rectify the following faults yourself: Fault 23: The temperature required for pyrolytic cleaning was not reached. This could have been caused by too much soiling in the oven to start with. Remove all coarse soiling before starting the pyrolytic cleaning programme again. If the fault message appears again please contact the Miele Service Department. Fault 32: The door has not locked for the pyrolytic cleaning process. Switch the oven off and start the pyrolytic cleaning process again. If the fault code appears again call the Miele Service Department. Fault 33: The door lock for the pyrolytic cleaning process will not open. Interrupt the pyrolytic cleaning programme by switching the oven off. If the door will still not open please contact the Miele Service Department. Fault 55: Safety switch-off has been triggered. The appliance will be ready for use again after it has been switched off and then back on again. For all other fault codes please contact the Miele Service Department. |
