That sentence is Miele’s own, read off its published support page for this condition rather than worked out from the outside. Everything below it — what the condition covers and what is worth doing first — is ours, written from what this equipment does in Miami kitchens. ### What this block of conditions is about Miele writes the condition as F and a number on the W1 machines and on the professional Little Giants alike, and the numbering runs further here than on anything else it builds — past F200 and past F300. The high numbers are not more serious than the low ones; they are a later block of the same list. ### What it covers What a published cause names is a circuit rather than a component, which is the single most useful thing to know before anybody orders a part. This one covers: - The washing machine is leaking. - The condition may be displayed erroneously when the washing machine is not leaking. - If there are no leaks, reconnect the washing machine to the electricity supply. - If the washing machine works normally and no condition is shown, - Was displayed erroneously. - You can continue to use the washing machine. - If your washing machine has no networking capability, please contact Miele Service. ### Worth knowing before you call - Disconnect the washing machine from the electricity supply. - Check whether any water has leaked out of the washing machine. - Start any wash program. - Make sure that the machine is connected to your Wi-Fi. A software update is available. ### Then what Miele publishes this one as something an owner cannot clear, and that is worth taking at face value rather than working around. It means a board, a motor or a sensor inside the cabinet, and on a machine built to run twenty years the honest question is which single part has aged rather than whether the machine is finished. Most South Florida laundry rooms put these units in a closet or a garage, so tell us where it stands when you book: getting a Miele washer out of a closet is part of the visit. Miele publishes this one for the washing machines. The [full Miele archive](https://mielemiami.support/error-codes/) has the other conditions, searchable, and on this make the same number appears on more than one machine roughly a third of the time, so the appliance above is part of the answer. We repair this equipment across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. washing machine What this one means What Miele publishes for it On a Miele washing machine, the manufacturer publishes this for the washing machine is leaking.
