Possible Causes
Damaged or hardened door gasket, Door not closing fully, High ambient humidity, Failed door heater (if equipped)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the unit is unplugged if adjusting hinges or replacing gaskets near electrical components.
- 1. Check door closure:
- Verify the door closes flush with the cabinet and latches magnetically.
- Adjust hinges if the door is misaligned.
- 2. Inspect gasket:
- Look for tears, gaps, or hardened sections of the gasket.
- Clean the gasket and door frame with mild soapy water and dry thoroughly.
- 3. Replace gasket if needed:
- Order the correct Miele door gasket and install by pressing it into the door channel, starting at the corners.
- 4. Ambient conditions:
- In very humid rooms, some condensation is normal; ensure adequate room ventilation.
- 5. Door heater (if present): If your model has a door frame heater and condensation is excessive, the heater circuit may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
