Problem solving guide
Problem
The hob switches off
while it is in use and an
F flashes in the timer
display.
The food in the pan
hardly heats up or does
not heat up at all when
the Auto heat-up
function is switched
on.
The cooling fan
continues to run even
after the appliance has
been switched off.
The sensors are
over-sensitive or do not
react at all.
52
Possible cause
One or more of the
sensors have been
covered, e.g. by finger
contact, food boiling
over or by an object
such as an oven glove.
There is too much food
in the pan.
The pan is not
conducting heat
properly.
The fan will continue
running until the
appliance has cooled
down. It will then
switch itself off
automatically.
The sensitivity level of
the sensors has
changed.
Remedy
Clean the control panel or
remove the obstruction (see
"Safety switch-off").
Start cooking at the highest
power level and then turn
down to a lower one
manually later on.
Make sure that there is no
direct light (from the sun or
from an artificial source)
falling onto the hob and that
the surrounding area is not
too dark.
Make sure that there is
nothing covering the sensors
or the hob. Take any pans off
the hob and wipe away any
food deposits.
Interrupt the power supply to
the hob for approx. 1 minute.
If this does not solve the
problem, please call the
Miele Service department.
