Overview

Error code F23
Appliance Wall Oven
Quick answer

F23 is a Miele oven message that the pyrolytic cleaning temperature was not reached, possibly due to a lot of soiling.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so F23 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

Pyrolytic cleaning temperature not reached, often from heavy soiling.

When F23 shows

Your Miele oven was running a pyrolytic cleaning programme and it could not reach the required temperature. A large amount of leftover soiling can be behind that.

At a glance

Code F23
What it means Pyrolytic cleaning temperature not reached, often from heavy soiling.
What you can check Turn the appliance off, remove coarse soiling from the oven compartment, and start the pyrolytic cleaning programme again. A glass scraper can lift stuck-on residue first.
When to call a technician If F23 keeps appearing after the compartment is cleared and the programme repeated, arrange a service visit.

What Miele advises

  • Turn the appliance off first.
  • Take out coarse soiling lying in the oven compartment.
  • Begin the pyrolytic programme once more.
  • Persisting fault: contact Miele Customer Service or book a repair appointment online.

Prepare the compartment

The H 7860 BP and H 7000 manual gives the reason for clearing the cavity first: coarse soiling can cause thick smoke, and burnt-on deposits may leave permanent discoloration or dull patches on enameled walls. It tells you to lift off coarse soiling and use a glass scraper on stuck-on residue before you start the pyrolytic programme.

Easily confused codes

Door lock problems during the same programme show as F32 or F33. A too-hot compartment is F134.
