Can the door be hinged on the right? Mine is hinged on the left and not convenient. Can it be altered or will I have to purchase a new one?
O--o appears on the screen. I can't start the microwave.
O--o has just appeared on mine too. The cover has unglued itself and I have been able to get by by putting cardboard in between to keep the cover level. When the cover "slips", nothing works. But now "O--o" wont go off. Based on reviews I have read here, sounds like its not worth replacing with another Miele, even though it's all integrated in the kitchen.
Thanks for your question, Miele is sorry to hear that you’re having issues. O--o indicates the system lock is activated, to deactivate this lock, please press the Stop/C button and hold it pressed in until an audible tone sounds. If you have any further questions, email your full name, the state you reside in, your best contact number and your question to info@miele.com.au, a member of our team will be in contact as soon as possible.

My microwave function doesn't work though the grill continues to work. Any suggestions on what needs to be fixed?
When operating the Miele M8260-2 Microwave at 900 for 5 minutes the Microwave will not respond - the clock is flashing 12 can not reset the time to gain function of the microwave. Around 45-60 minutes later the clock can be reset and the microwave functions as if nothing is wrong. Do you know or have a fix for this issue?
They are a Pile of Steaming Dog Poop....buy a Panasonic and don't by Mie le again... problem fixed!!!
My faceplate on the 8261-1 is falling - the glue has failed. How can I get this repaired or replaced?
EASY ! Make sure to clean all surfaces with white spirit. Then apply double sided tape on the door and press it firmly.
My faceplates fell off. It seems to be a common problem. Are faceplates available . Is this a problem with all Miele microwaves? Thank you

Hi I need to buy the front covering for my Miele microwave M 8260-1 could you tell me if they are still available. Thanks
sorry, cannot answer this. no idea.
M8260 Microwave. Is this a combi oven or just microwave?
Just a microwave......
thanks Jim, pity. Just buying a house with this in it.
What has taken the place of the 8261.1?
Hi Mike, am using a spare Westinghouse at the moment, until I can find time to purchase a new Panasonic.
I haven't checked that out yet, not in detail anyway. And I'm still in negotiations with Miele who, presumably, will work out the product that will fit the cavity built for the 8261.1! I may be able to answer your question by the end of this decade, hopefully!
Hey Mike & Lou - did you ever find a microwave that fits well in the space of the 8261.1? We have bought a house that has 4 Miele appliances built in together and the microwave has no sign of life.... might cut my losses and replace rather than call out for repair!!
I have all Miele products, in my Kitchen and Laundry. After reading the above, I am very worried, that they will break down ! Mine are two years old...will keep my fingers crossed !
I do have a simple question for Miele M 8260-1.....Would you please tell me how to re-set the clock ? I can set the clock on the oven, but the microwave has me beat ! My Builder didn't leave the Microwave booklet.
Thank you.
Georgina
