Problem solving guide
. . . the microwave operation works
but not the lighting.
^ You can operate the appliance as
normal, but the lighting is faulty.
Contact Miele if you need to replace
the lighting.
. . . strange noises are heard when
the microwave oven is being used.
Check whether,
^ the food is covered with aluminium
foil.
If so, remove it.
^ sparks are being created by the use
of crockery with a metallic finish. See
"Suitable containers for microwave
ovens".
. . . the time of day in the display is
not accurate.
After a power cut, the time of day
needs to be re-entered.
^ Set the correct time of day.
. . . food cools down too quickly.
In the microwave oven, 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 power level,
it is possible that the heat may not have
reached the centre of the food, so it is
hot on the outside but cold in the
centre. During standing time heat is
transferred to the centre of the food.
This may leave the food warm in the
middle but cool on the outside. When
reheating food with different densities,
72
such as plated meals, it is therefore
sensible to select a lower power level
and lengthen the duration required.
. . . the microwave switches itself off
during a cooking, reheating or
defrosting programme.
There may be insufficient air circulation.
Check whether,
^ the air inlet or outlet is blocked.
If so, remove any obstruction. The
appliance switches off automatically in
cases of overheating. Cooking can be
continued after a cooling-down period.
If the microwave oven switches itself off
repeatedly, please call Miele.
,
If it is not possible to remedy a
fault by following the instructions
given above, on no account open
the appliance casing.
This microwave oven should only be
repaired by a suitably qualified
technician trained by Miele. Danger
of electrocution!
