Stop the program and power the machine down. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### How is F25 different from F26 on a Miele dishwasher? F25 says the water never reached the temperature the chosen program asked for, while F26 is the code Miele reserves for boiling protection. Mixing them up sends you to the wrong explanation. ### Is it all right to finish the load on a Miele showing F25? Miele gives no owner routine for F25 and lists only a repair appointment, so the program is best stopped and the machine switched off. Dishes washed in water that never got warm enough may not come out properly clean anyway. --- **[Read on the site: Miele dishwasher showing F25 | DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/error-codes/miele-f25/)** **[Book a visit with DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/schedule/)**
