Coupling seal
The coupling seal needs to be
lubricated regularly. If the steam
generator becomes difficult to remove
and replace or the fault message
F20
appears, rub a small amount of the
silicone grease supplied (see
"Accessories supplied") into the inside
of the coupling seal. When doing this,
do not detach the seal but leave it in
place.
When handling silicone grease, please
observe the following safety measures:
– Remove any silicone grease from
your skin either by wiping it off or by
washing it off.
– If the grease gets into the eyes it
must be rinsed out with plenty of
clean water.
– If it is swallowed, seek medical
advice.
Only use the silicone grease
supplied. On no account must
margarine or oil or any other
domestic grease or fat be used, as
these can cause the seal to swell.
The coupling seal should be replaced
with a new one if it becomes brittle or
porous over time or if an unusually
large amount of water collects on the
floor of the steam generator
compartment.
Coupling seals can be ordered from the
Miele Spare Parts Department. See
