F75 and F76 flag a jammed capsule on Miele capsule coffee machines such as the CVA 26xx/36xx.
Model compatibility
Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F75, F76 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Code
F75, F76
What it means
F75 and F76 are jammed coffee capsule messages.
What you can check
Confirm with OK, empty the grounds container, and pull out and reinsert the carousel runners. For a deeper check, switch off the main switch and look beside the capsule plate for a stuck capsule.
When to call a technician
Call a technician if the jam message stays, or if the capsule has slipped into the brew unit and you cannot lift it out safely with a wooden spoon handle.
Quick reset
Acknowledge the message with OK. With the door open, lift out the grounds container, empty it and set it back. Pull the carousel runners out, slide them back in and close up.
Deeper check
Cut mains power first with the top-left main switch, since there is an injury risk.
Take out the grounds container, the runners and the capsule plate.
Inspect the gap beside the capsule plate insert, on the right, for a stuck capsule.
If it is empty, the capsule is probably in the brew unit. Keep your hand out of it; a wooden spoon handle or similar is the only tool Miele allows for lifting the capsule from the upper area.
Put the plate, runners and carousel back, flip the main switch on again and shut the door.
