Look around the door seal for anything that keeps the door from closing fully. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What should I look for when my Miele shows F32? Check the door seal area for anything caught there, such as foil or a stray piece of food, that keeps the door from closing fully. Then restart Self Clean. ### Can I bake while my Miele shows F32? F32 concerns the Self Clean lock. If normal baking runs without a code, the oven can usually be used, but book a visit if F32 keeps blocking the clean. --- **[Read on the site: Miele oven showing F32 | OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/error-codes/miele-f32/)** **[Book a visit with OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/schedule/)**
