Problem Solving Guide - Miele CS 1212-1 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.
Problem
The cooking zones do
not heat up.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used.
 is flashing in a cook-
ing zone display.
 flashes alternately
with the power level in a
cooking zone display.
Cause and remedy
There is no power to the hob.
 Check whether the fuse has tripped. Contact an
electrician or Miele Service (for the minimum fuse
rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
 Turn the rotary controls to the 0 position.
 Disconnect the hob from the electricity supply for
approx. 1 minute. To do this, take the following
steps:
– Trip the relevant fuse or screw the fuse out com-
pletely.
– 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 cur-
rent current device, contact a qualified electrician
or Miele Service.
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 disap-
pears completely. The smell and any vapours given
off do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance
and they are not hazardous to health.
There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is un-
suitable.
 Use a suitable pan (see "Pans").
The power level set has been reduced because the
Booster function on the linked cooking zone has
been activated (see "Booster").
