Repairs to electrical appliances should only be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent person 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.
Various messages will appear in the display to warn of certain
problems. Follow the instructions which appear in the display
to remedy the problem.
Other problems or situations which occur in general use are
described in this chapter. With the help of the following notes
minor faults in the performance of the machine, some of
which may result from incorrect operation, can be put right
without contacting the Service Department. Please refer to
the operating instructions booklet as necessary.
What to do if...
. . . the machine does not light up after it has been
switched on.
^Has the lighting been switched off? (See "Settings,
Lighting").
^If not, then the lighting is defective. Call the Miele Service
Department.
. . . nothing appears in the display.
The machine is not connected to the electricity supply.
^Is the master switch in the 0 position?
^Is it plugged in and switched on at the socket?
^Check that the fuse is not defective and that the mains fuse
has not tripped. If it has, contact the Miele Service
Department.
. . . the machine suddenly switches itself off.
The machine will switch itself off automatically after a certain
length of time if it is not being used. This time depends on the
switch off time which has been programmed.

The water temperature could be too high. The machine will
remain switched off until the water has cooled down
sufficiently.
There could be stones in amongst the coffee beans. If this is
the case, the machine will switch itself off automatically within
20 seconds to avoid damage.
- Call the Miele Service Department.
^Check that the plug is correctly fitted in the socket.
. . . the lighting suddenly switches itself off.
If the machine has not been used for 15 minutes the lighting
will switch itself off automatically.
. . . you cannot read the display.
If the machine is installed too low down, the display can be
hard to see.
^Try and improve this by adjusting the display contrast or
brightness.
. . . milk froth or milk is not flowing out of the central
spout.
The spout is clogged up.
^Clean the milk pipework as described in "Cleaning and
Care".
...amessage appears in the display reminding you to fill
or replace the milk flask even though it is full and
positioned correctly.
^Clean the flask thoroughly, paying particular attention to the
area around the handle and the neck.
Any soiling in these areas can prevent the sensors for the
milk flask from working properly.
. . . the coffee grinder makes a louder noise than usual.
There may be stones in amongst the coffee beans, or the
bean container may have emptied during grinding.
^Switch the machine off immediately.

^If the bean container is not empty call the Miele Service
Department. If it is empty fill the container with fresh beans.
. . . the espresso is dispensed too quickly.
The coffee is too coarsely ground.
^Set the grinder on a finer setting.
. . . the espresso is dispensed too slowly.
The coffee is too finely ground.
^Set the grinder on a coarser setting.
. . . the espresso is not hot enough.
^Have the cups and system been pre-warmed?
The smaller the cup, the more important it is to pre-warm it.
^Check the temperatures the different types of coffee have
been set to.
^Check whether the brew unit is blocked. Clean it if it is
blocked.
. . . coffee is not dispensed, even though the beans have
been ground and there is sufficient water in the water
container.
^Check whether the slide control for the fineness of the
coffee is at the finest setting, or if the amount of coffee to
be ground has been set at the largest amount.
Because the process is time controlled, it is possible that the
process has taken so long that there is no time left for
brewing.
^Select a slightly coarser coffee grind setting or a lower
setting for the amount of coffee to be ground.
. . . the machine door will not close.
^Are the containers in position correctly?
^It might be necessary to adjust the door hinges (see
"Installation: adjusting the door hinges").
