Error code E3
Appliance Steam Oven
Quick answer

E3 on a Miele steam oven shows the second rinse of the descaling process.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so E3 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Descaling progress indicator: rinse 2 (not an error).

On a Miele steam oven, E3 stands for rinse 2 in the descaling process. It is simply the display keeping you informed.

What comes before and after

Rinse 1 is E2, and rinse 3 is E4. The series ends with E5, residual water evaporation.

Related codes

  • E2 is the earlier rinse.
  • E4 is the later rinse.
  • E0 is where the series begins.
