Problem
Possible cause and solution
The microwave oven
has switched itself off.
There is insufficient air circulation.
Check whether the vents are blocked.
Remove the obstructions, if applicable.
For safety reasons, the microwave oven is designed
to switch off if it overheats.
Resume the cooking process once the oven has
cooled down.
The microwave oven keeps switching itself off.
Contact Miele Customer Service.
The food has not been
defrosted, heated, or
cooked sufficiently on
completion of the
cooking process.
Check whether the cooking process was interrupted
without restarting it.
Restart the cooking process to ensure the food
gets defrosted, heated, or cooked properly.
The cooking duration you set was too short.
Check that the correct duration is selected for the
microwave power level. The lower the microwave
power level, the longer the duration required.
Food has cooled down
too quickly after being
reheated or cooked
using microwave power.
In the microwave, food begins to cook from the
outside first, the inside of the food relying on the
slower conduction of heat. If food is cooked at a high
microwave power level, it is possible that the heat
may not have reached the center of the food, so it is
hot on the outside but cold in the centre. During the
standing time, the heat is transferred to the center of
the food.
When reheating food with different densities, such
as with menu cooking, it is sensible to start with a
low microwave power level and select a longer
reheating duration.
The oven interior
lighting does not switch
on.
The lamp is faulty. You can operate the appliance as
usual, but the lamp has blown.
