Problem
The water container
has become harder to
put into the appliance
and take out again.
After moving house the
appliance no longer
switches from the
heating-up phase to
the cooking phase.
During operation an
unusually large
amount of steam
escapes, or steam
escapes from parts of
the oven where it does
not usually.
A whistling sound is
heard when the
appliance is switched
on again.
The heating-up phase
lasts an unusually long
time.
Possible cause and remedy
The coupling seal in the water container has become
stiff.
^ Lightly lubricate the coupling seal on the water
container with silicone grease, as described in
"Cleaning and care > Coupling seal".
The boiling temperature of the water has changed as the
altitude of the new location for the appliance differs from
the old one by at least 300 m.
^ To adjust the boiling temperature, you need to descale
the appliance (see "Cleaning and care > Descaling").
The door is not properly closed.
^ Close the door.
The door seal is not correctly fitted.
^ Press door seal in all the way round the door to make
sure it is fitted evenly.
The door seal is damaged, e.g. cracks can be seen.
^ Replace the door seal.
When the door is closed, the pressure has to equalise,
which can cause a whistling sound. This is not a fault.
The water container has a lot of limescale built-up in it
because the appliance was not set correctly for the
hardness of the local water supply.
^ Set the correct water hardness level for your water
supply (see "Settings"), and descale the appliance as
described in "Cleaning and care / Descaling".
If the water hardness level was in fact set correctly or
the problem occurs again, contact the Service
Department.
