On Thermador MicroDrawer microwaves MD24BS and MD30BS, ERROR appears on the display if the sensor does not detect vapor properly when cooking foods other than popcorn. The same message appears if the drawer is opened or STOP/CLEAR is touched during the measuring part of a sensor cycle. It often just means the cycle was interrupted.
1. Touch Stop/Clear. 2. Close the drawer fully. 3. Restart the sensor cycle and do not open the drawer or touch the panel during measurement. 4. If ERROR returns without interruption, use time cooking instead and call us. Note which foods trigger it.
Opening the drawer or touching Stop/Clear during the measuring part of a sensor cycle triggers it, per the Use & Care manual. Simply close the drawer and start the sensor cycle again without touching the panel.
The manual describes the vapor detection message for foods other than popcorn. Popcorn is the stated exception, so do not rely on the sensor setting for it. Choose time cooking for popcorn and for anything else the sensor misjudges.
If ERROR appears without interrupting the cycle and with ordinary food, call us so we can check the sensor. Tell us the food, the setting and the model, MD24BS or MD30BS, so we can plan the visit.
Our technician checks it in your home and hands you a written price before touching anything.
