Food light at front/dark at back

Wait for the oven to cool down completely and then carry out the following steps:

• Check that the door is properly positioned on its hinges and that the lock is in the correct position. Also check whether the door seal is positioned properly all the way around. Additional information on this can be found in the operating and installation instructions or online on the Miele website.

• Ovens with silicone seal: Grease deposits on the door seal can cause it to become brittle and cracked. Remove soiling immediately with warm water, liquid dish soap, and a clean sponge or a clean, damp microfiber cloth. Wipe the seal dry using a soft cloth.

• Ovens with fiberglass seal: The sensitive fiberglass seal can be damaged by rubbing or scouring. Avoid cleaning the fiberglass seal.

If the door seal is brittle, cracked, or badly worn, contact Miele Service.

Use the shelf level that is best suited for the food and the operating mode according to the recipe or cooking chart. Recipes can be found in the instructions, in the recipe booklet, in the operating and installation instructions, or on the Miele website.

Do not use the Rapid PreHeat function again if this problem occurs. This allows you to achieve a more even cooking result, especially for delicate baked goods such as cookies. Also turn off the catalyzer.
