Problem solving guide
46
Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily
remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be
needed.
The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault,
and to correct it.
Problem Cause and remedy
The hob or cooking
zones will not switch
on. There is no power to the hob.
 Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. Con-
tact an electrician or Miele Service (for the min-
imum fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
 Disconnect the appliance from the mains electri-
city supply for approx. 1 minute by
– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the
fuse out completely, or
– switching off at the residual current device.

If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse
box or the residual current current device, the ap-
pliance will still not turn on, contact a qualified
electrician or Miele Service.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used. The metal components have a protective coating.
When the appliance is used for the first time, this
causes a smell and possibly also vapour. The mater-
ial from which the induction coils are made also gives
off a smell in the first few hours of operation. With
each subsequent use, the odour is reduced until it
disappears completely. The smell and any vapours
given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appli-
ance and they are not hazardous to health.
The  symbol lights up
or flashes alternately
with the set power level
or
 in one of the cook-
ing zone displays.
There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is
unsuitable.
 Use a suitable pan (see “Pans”).
