Disconnect the appliance from the
mains. Switch off at the wall and
withdraw the plug from the socket, or
disconnect the mains fuse or remove
the screw-out fuse in countries where
this is applicable.
^
Reach under the back of the light
cover, and pull the cover off.
^
Unscrew the lamp and replace it with
a new one.

section is wet.

If you still cannot remedy the fault
having followed these suggestions,
please contact the Miele Service
