F01
The dishwasher has detected a short-circuit in the NTC water temperature sensor. Heating has been deactivated and rinse aid dispensing may be affected. The machine cannot confirm water temperature and has stopped the cycle.
medium severity
F11
The dishwasher is unable to drain water from the wash cabinet. Water is still present in the tub at the end of a drain cycle. This applies to Miele G 1xxx through G 6xxx series models.
medium severity
F12
The dishwasher failed to fill with water at the beginning of a program step. The machine did not detect sufficient water entering the tub within the expected time.
medium severity
F13
The dishwasher's water inlet valve has been identified as defective. The valve is not opening or closing correctly, preventing the dishwasher from filling normally.
high severity
F14
The dishwasher has detected a fault with the heater pressure switch. This switch monitors water level in relation to the heating element, and a fault here prevents safe heating operation.
medium severity
F18
The dishwasher's flow meter is reading zero or near-zero water flow when the machine expects water to be entering. The machine has stopped because it cannot confirm water is reaching the wash system.
medium severity
F24
The dishwasher has detected a malfunction in the circulation pump or a fault in the heater relay on the control board. The circulation pump moves water through the spray arms during the wash cycle — if it fails, dishes will not be washed.
high severity
F78
The dishwasher has detected a circulation pump fault. On first use or after a long period without use, this can occur if the pump ran dry. On established units it indicates a pump obstruction or motor issue.
medium severity
F600
The dishwasher has detected a fault with the AutoDos automatic detergent dispensing system. The drain pump activates and the wash program is cancelled when this code appears. AutoDos is Miele's built-in automatic powder detergent system.
low severity
