What to do when F33 shows on the rangeKind of codeDoor and lock
The oven door lock did not move to where the control sent it, or its switch reported the wrong position. It shows up most around self-clean; the latch, its switches, the hinges and how squarely the door closes are looked at before the lock motor is changed.
Usually leads toDoor hinge, gasket and lock repair
An oven door that will not close, sits crooked, leaks heat, or stays locked after self-clean, traced to the hinges, the gasket, the glass or the lock.
Shows up asRange Self-Clean Problems
The self-clean cycle will not start, stops partway, leaves the door locked, smokes heavily, or leaves the oven dead afterward.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Miele's own guidance for F33 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the oven off and on again.
If the lock still does not release on its own, book a visit; do not force the door.
Still there?
It usually turns into door hinge, gasket and lock repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
F33 is the lock failing to open; F32 is the lock failing to close.

Door and lock on other makes
Gas range
Open flames on top and a gas-fired oven below, all fed by one supply line behind the range and lit by igniters rather than a match.
Dual-fuel range
Gas burners on top and an electric oven below, the combination most professional-style ranges use, needing both a gas line and a 240-volt circuit.
Induction range
A glass top that heats the pan itself through copper coils and power boards, over an electric oven, with electronics doing almost all the work.
In Miele's own words
The door lock for the Self Clean program has not opened.
