Repairs to this appliance must only
be carried out by a Miele approved
service technician in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. Repairs
and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable
for unauthorised work.
However, some minor problems can be
corrected without contacting Miele.
What to do if . . .
. . . a programme will not start.
Check whether,
^
the appliance door is closed
properly.
^
the system lock has been activated
(see "System lock").
^
the appliance is plugged into the
mains supply and switched on at the
socket.
^
the mains fuse has tripped (call a
qualified electrician or the Miele Ser-
vice Department if it has. See "After
sales service").
. . . a noise can be heard after a
cooking programme.
This is not a fault.
The cooling fan will continue to run for a
while after the oven has been switched
off to dispel any moisture from the oven
and prevent it settling on the control
panel or surrounding furniture.
It will switch off automatically.
. . . the display does not light up.
Check whether,
^
the time of day display has been
switched off (press and hold the
m
button for a few seconds).
^
the time of day display has been
programmed to switch off at night.
. . . the turntable does not turn
smoothly.
^
Check whether the area underneath
the turntable is clean.
^
Check whether the contact area
between the turntable and the carrier
are clean.
Remove any soiling.
. . . food is not adequately defrosted,
heated or cooked at the end of the
selected cooking duration.
^
Check whether the correct power
level was selected for the duration
set.
The lower the power level, the longer
the duration required.
^
Check whether the programme has
been interrupted and not restarted.
. . . the microwave function is
working but not the oven lighting.
^
You can use the appliance as you
usually do, but the lamp has broken.
To change the lamp, please contact
the Miele Service Department.
