Problem Solving Guide - Miele KMDA 7476 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 or cooking
zones will not switch
on.
A smell and vapours are
given off when the new
appliance is being used.
In the cooking zone
display, the  symbol
will flash alternately
with the selected power
level or .
Cause and remedy
There is no power to the hob.
 Check if the mains fuse has tripped. Contact a
qualified electrician or your Miele dealer (for the
minimum fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
 Disconnect the appliance from the electricity
supply for approx. 1 minute by
– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the
fuse out completely, or
– switching off at the residual current device.
 If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse
box or the residual current device, the appliance
will still not turn on, 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.
An unsuitable pan has been placed on the hob.
 Use suitable pans (see "Pans" in the "Induction"
chapter).
