What 12:00
actually means.

The TCM24 keeps its clock only while it has power. After an outage, or after the power switch behind the door was used, the clock returns to 12:00 and the saved clock settings are lost.

What to do when 12:00 shows on the coffee machine

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Thermador's own guidance for 12:00 on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Set the time again in the clock menu.

02

For everyday use, send the machine into energy saving mode with the I button rather than the power switch, so the clock is kept.

03

If 12:00 returns without an outage or a switch-off, book a visit.

Still there?

It usually turns into coffee machine control board repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

It is not a numbered error like E0510. A display that goes blank and restarts by itself during brewing is a separate power complaint.

Questions
about 12:00.

Can I clear 12:00 myself?
Set the time again in the clock menu. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Does a Thermador showing 12:00 lose my saved drinks?
Thermador's note speaks of re-entering the values after a power loss. Check your saved drinks and re-save any that were reset.
Why does my Thermador reset to 12:00 every few days?
Short power dips can do it. If the house has no outages and nobody uses the power switch, the supply to the machine or its board needs checking.
Is there a way to stop the Thermador clock showing at all?
Thermador mentions an Off option in the clock display menu. Choosing it hides the clock instead of resetting it.

Back to your everyday

Still showing 12:00?

Three things make the booking useful: the message or number exactly as the display showed it, the full model number from the plate, and whether the machine still grinds and pours at all. Send those and the likely part can be looked up before the van leaves.
