Problem solving guide

Repairs to electrical appliances
must only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with local and
national safety regulations.
Unauthorised repairs could be
dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
However, some minor problems can be
resolved as follows:
What to do if ...
... the hob or cooking zones cannot
be switched on
Check whether
– the pans in use are suitable.
– the safety lock is activated.
If necessary, deactivate it (see
"Safety lock").
– the mains fuse has blown.
If none of the above is the case, then
disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply for approx. 1 minute.
To do this:
– switch it off at the isolator, or
– switch off at the socket and withdraw
the plug, or
– withdraw the mains fuse.
Reconnect to the mains supply and
switch the appliance on. If it still does
not heat up then contact a qualified
electrician or the Miele Service
Department.
