Error code F1
Appliance Steam Oven
Quick answer

F1 with a continuous buzzer after switch-off means the residual water container is not in the oven. Push it fully in.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 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

After switch-off, water container for residual water pumping is not in the appliance.

After you switch a Miele steam oven off with the function rotary control set to 0, a continuous buzzer may sound and F1 appears on the display.

Cause and fix

The water container used to pump the residual water back is not in the appliance. Push the water container fully into the appliance and the message is dealt with.

Related codes

If the display shows F10, the water inlet is the issue, not the container position. F11 concerns water that cannot drain from the steam generator.
