Overview

Error code F95
Appliance Steam Oven
Quick answer

F95 means limescale has blocked the level switch in a Miele steam oven's water container. Descaling comes first.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F95 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Level switch blocked by limescale deposits in the water container.

Reading F95

Limescale deposits have built up and are stopping the level switch from working. Both the steam oven and the combination steam oven can show F95 for that reason.

At a glance

Code F95
What it means Level switch blocked by limescale deposits in the water container.
What you can check Descale the oven following its operating instructions, since limescale is blocking the level switch. Run the descaling program fully before using the oven again.
When to call a technician If F95 appears again after descaling, book a service visit with a technician.

Owner step

  1. Descale per the operating instructions supplied with the oven.
  2. Should F95 reappear afterwards, get in touch with Miele Customer Service or book a repair appointment online.

For the DGC 7840 HC Pro, Miele’s operating instructions explain that the oven has to be descaled after a set number of operating hours, and only cooking with steam is counted. A figure for uses left appears on the display. After the last one the oven locks. The program runs about 41 minutes: put lukewarm tap water in the water container to the marked level, add 2 Miele descaling tablets, let them dissolve, slide the container in and press OK. Empty the condensate container, press OK again, and the countdown starts. Midway the container needs rinsing and a refill with fresh water.

Often mixed up with

F94 (stuck float switches) and F14 (too little water in the steam generator) also relate to water supply inside the oven.
