Miele Washer F210 Error Code

What it means

The washer suds-circulation system is restricted by lint at the door-seal nozzle or a blocked drain filter/pump.

Try this first

  1. Carefully remove lint from the nozzle at the top of the door sealing ring with your finger.
  2. If the drain filter is blocked, use caution because hot wash water can scald and a large quantity of water may remain in the drum.
  3. Place a suitable container below the drain-pump access panel and loosen the drain filter slowly to control the flow.
  4. Switch the washer off, open the drain-pump access panel, drain the remaining water, remove and thoroughly clean the drain filters, and verify that the pump impellers rotate freely.
  5. Remove foreign objects such as buttons or coins, reinstall each drain filter on the correct side, screw the filters tight, and close the access panel.
  6. The washer can still be used with reduced functionality, but if F210 persists arrange Miele service.
