Safety features

Overheating protection

All the induction coils and cooling
elements for the electronics are fitted
with an overheating protection
mechanism. Before the induction coils
and/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 turns off
automatically.  flashes alternately
with  in the timer display.
You can use the cooking zone 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 any of the
following:
– Heating up an empty pan.
– Fat or oil being heated on a high
power level.
– 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.
