Disposal turns on but water splashes excessively out of the sink opening during use.

Safety first: Turn off the disposal before adjusting the baffle.

• Check baffle installation: Ensure the Miele splash baffle is correctly seated in the sink flange with the correct side facing up.
• Replace damaged baffle: If the baffle is torn, hardened, or warped, replace it with a Miele-compatible part.
• Adjust water flow: Reduce faucet flow slightly while operating the disposal to minimize splashing.
• Verify flange fit: If the baffle does not sit properly, confirm that the sink opening and flange are compatible with the Miele mounting system.
