Problem Solving Guide - Miele KM 7678 FR Operating And Installation Instructions

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.
Issue
The hob cannot be
switched on.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used.
After the hob has been
switched on, or after
touching a sensor, 
appears in the timer
display for a few
seconds.
Cause and remedy
There is no power to the hob.
 Check whether the fuse has tripped. Contact an
electrician or your Miele dealer (for the minimum
fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
 Disconnect the hob from the electricity supply for
approx. 1 minute. To do this:
– trip the relevant fuse or screw the fuse out
completely, or
– switch off the residual current protection device
 If the appliance will still not turn on after resetting
the trip switch in the fuse box or the residual
current current device, contact a qualified
electrician or your Miele dealer.
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
material 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
appliance and they are not hazardous to health.
The system lock or safety lock is activated.
 Deactivate the system lock or safety lock (see
"System lock / Safety lock").
