Power Management - Miele KM 7404 FX Operating And Installation Instructions

Power management

Total power
The cooktop has a maximum total
permitted power consumption which
cannot be exceeded for safety reasons.
You can reduce the maximum total
permitted power consumption (see
"Adjusting settings").
The higher the total permitted power
consumption of the cooktop, the more
power levels/functions that can be used
simultaneously on all cooking zones.
If the set power levels/functions require
more power than can be made available
by the total permitted power output, the
cooktop will distribute the possible
power across the cooking zones.
Power distribution
Cooking zones can be linked together
in pairs on the cooktop. This allows
power to be transferred from one
cooking zone (A) to another zone (B).
This transfer reduces the power on
cooking zone (A).
Example: the Booster for cooking zone
(B) is activated.
The cooking zone (B) which requires
power is determined by the most recent
selected setting on the cooktop.
The values for the maximum total
permitted power consumption and
which cooking zones are linked
together can be found in "Familiarising
yourself with the appliance – Cooking
zone data".
You can reduce the maximum total
permitted power consumption (see
"Adjusting settings").

Effects of distributing the power
When a cooking zone gives power to
another zone, it can have the following
effects on the power of the first zone:
- The power level is reduced.
- Auto heat-up will be deactivated.
Cooking continues at the set level. If
the power is not sufficient, the power
level will be reduced again.
- The Booster function is deactivated.
- The cooking zone is switched off.
If the most recently set power level is
reduced or the Booster function is
switched off, the power level for the
linked cooking zone can be increased
again.
Useful tip: If you want to cook large
quantities of food on a cooking zone,
switch the other cooking zones to lower
power levels.
