Common Miele refrigerator codes
F0
Miele Refrigerator Error F0: BioFresh Sensor Fault

F1
Miele Refrigerator Error F1: Refrigerating Chamber Temperature Sensor Fault
The refrigerator has detected a fault with the main refrigerating chamber temperature sensor (NTC). The unit cannot accurately monitor the fresh food compartment temperature. This is a high-severity code — move perishable food if the fault persists.
