Where is the serial number on a Miele microwave?
On a data plate on the appliance itself.
Keep the model, serial and any separate production code or printed date together. Not every serial number contains a publicly decodable date.
Miele age can't be read from the serial number
Miele doesn't publish a way to work out an appliance's age from its serial number. Look over the rating plate carefully, a production date is sometimes printed on it. If there's no printed date, Miele Customer Service can look it up from the model and serial number.
Look on the rating plate for a printed production or manufacture date.

An installation invoice or service record can help establish the equipment’s history. A standards revision year, patent date or manual copyright date is not its manufacture date.
Checking the manufacture date
Use the format that belongs to this product family. A printed production date, a supported serial code or manufacturer confirmation can establish the age. Repeating year codes may leave more than one possible year; a model-series introduction date helps narrow the range but does not date your individual unit.
How long does a Miele microwave last?
Microwaves typically last 8 to 10 years. Use, water quality and maintenance matter more than the brand. Over-the-range models have grease and charcoal filters; replace them as the manual says.
