given off when the new
appliance is being used.
64
Cause and remedy
A large amount of food is being heated up.
Start cooking at the highest power level and then
turn down to a lower one manually later on.
The pan is not conducting heat properly.
Use a different pot or pan which conducts heat
properly.
Cause and remedy
There is no power to the hob.
Check whether the circuit breaker has tripped.
Contact a qualified electrician or the Miele
Customer Service Department (for the minimum
fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
Disconnect the hob from the electricity supply for
approx. 1 minute. To do this:
– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the
fine-wire fuse out completely, or
– switching off at the residual current device.
If the hob will still not turn on after resetting the trip
switch in the fuse box or the residual current
device, contact a qualified electrician or the Miele
Customer Service Department.
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.
