Possible cause and remedy
The oil in the vacuum pump has become extremely
hot.
 Clean the drawer and leave it to cool down for
1 hour before starting another vacuuming process.
 When carrying out a number of consecutive
vacuuming processes, wait a minimum of
2 minutes between each process to prevent the oil
from overheating again.
 If the problem occurs again, contact Miele.
The required final vacuum could not be achieved.
 Switch the drawer off and back on again.
 Start the vacuuming process again with lower
vacuum settings if necessary.
After intensive use of the drawer, the oil in the
vacuum pump has become extremely hot.
 Leave the drawer to cool for an hour before
starting another vacuuming process.
 When carrying out a number of consecutive
vacuuming processes, wait for at least 2 minutes
between each process. This prevents the oil from
overheating.
The glass lid is not sitting evenly. There is an object,
such as the edge of a bag or some soiling, on the
surface of the chamber seal.
 Remove the obstruction and/or the soiling.
 Close the glass lid and press it down lightly for
approx. 5 seconds.
The chamber seal is not fitted correctly.
 Press the chamber seal in all the way round to
make sure it is fitted evenly.
The chamber seal is damaged, e.g. cracks can be
seen.
 Call Miele to have it replaced.
