Frequently asked questions
35 
						

							Why does the food cool so fast when heated or cooked with Microwave?
In the microwave, food begins to cook from the outside first, the inside of the
food relies on the transfer of heat. If food is cooked at a high power level it is
possible that the heat may not have reached the center of the food. At the
temperature equalization time the food will become hot in the inside and warm
on the outside. When heating a meal, select a lower power level and a longer
cooking time.
Why did the microwave turn itself off during a program?
Possible fault Solution
There may be insufficient air
circulation.Check if the air inlet or outlet is blocked.
Remove any objects.
The appliance turns itself off automatically
to prevent overheating. The program can
be continued once the microwave is
allowed to cool.
If the microwave turns itself off repeatedly,
contact Miele Technical Service.
Contact Technical Service for all other fault messages or if the fault could not
be fixed. Do not open the outer casing of the appliance. The appliance must
only be repaired by a qualified service technician.
