Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by suit-
ably qualified and competent ser-
vice technicians trained by Miele.
Improper repairs may pose a
serious risk to the user.
The following minor malfunctions can
be corrected without calling the Service
Department:
What to do if . . . .
. . . the display area is dark
Check whether:
– the appliance is correctly plugged in,
– the mains fuse has blown (call the
Service Department),
– the time display had been switched
off (see Section on “Time of day dis-
play”).
. . . nothing happens when a touch
control is pressed.
Check whether:
– the indicator lamp for that control is
lit up,
– the programme lock is activated
(see Section “Programme lock”).
. . . a process will not start.
Check whether:
– if operating in microwave mode the
appliance door is properly shut,
– if operating in microwave mode a
power setting and time have been
entered,
– if operating with a combination pro-
gramme, the following have been en-
tered: a power setting, a time, a time
for the microwave mode and a tem-
perature for the normal oven opera-
ting mode.
– if operating with an Automatic pro-
gramme the weight has been en-
tered.
. . . no operating noise is heard when
the appliance door is opened during
a cooking process in normal oven
mode
This is not a fault.
If the door is opened during a cooking
process the door contact switch will
switch off the heating and depending
on the function chosen, the hot air fan.
. . . a noise is heard after a process
has finished
This is not a fault.
The cooling fan continues to run for a
short time. When the temperature has
fallen sufficiently the fan switches off
automatically.
If the door is opened during this run-on
time the fan is switched off. If the door
is then shut the fan will start again.
