Turn the CMP 250 off and give it half an hour with the door shut. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### My Gaggenau sits beside a steam oven. Can that make it overheat? Heat from a neighbor in the same column adds to the machine's own. If the screen follows oven use, mention that when you book. ### How long does a Gaggenau CMP 250 need to cool? Gaggenau asks for thirty minutes off. Switching on sooner often brings the screen straight back. ### When is this Gaggenau screen a real repair? When it shows on a machine that has been off for hours. Then the temperature reading is wrong, which is a sensor or board check. --- **[Read on the site: Gaggenau CMP 250: Let appliance cool down](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/error-codes/gaggenau-let-appliance-cool-down/)** **[Book a visit with CoffeeMachineRepair.center](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/schedule/)**
