Overheating protection
All the induction coils and cooling
elements for the electronics are fitted
with an overheating protection
mechanism. Before the induction coils
or cooling elements get too hot, the
overheating protection mechanism cuts
in in one of the following ways:
Induction coils
– Any Booster function in operation will
be switched off.
– The set power level will be reduced.
– The cooking zone will switch off
automatically. The fault code
will appear.
You can use the cooking zones again as
usual when the fault message has gone
out.
Cooling elements
– Any Booster function in operation will
be switched off.
– The set power level will be reduced.
– The cooking zones switch off
automatically.
The affected cooking zones can only be
used again as usual once the cooling
element has cooled down to a safe
level.
The overheating protection mechanism
can be triggered by:
– Heating up an empty pan.
– Fat or oil being heated on a high
power setting.
– Insufficient ventilation to the
underside of the cooktop.
– A hot cooking zone being switched
on after an interruption to the power
supply.
If, despite removing the cause, the
overheating protection mechanism
triggers again, contact Miele.
Control panel
The control panel electronic unit is
equipped with an overheating
protection mechanism. This switches
off the cooktop automatically before the
electronic unit overheats.
The fault code
will appear if the
control panel overheating protection
mechanism is triggered. You can use
the cooktop again once the fault code
has gone out.
The overheating protection mechanism
can be switched on if more than one
cooking zone is operated on a high
setting for a long period of time.
