Overheating Protection - Miele KM 6322 Operating And Installation Instruction

Overheating protection

All the induction coils and the cooling elements for the
electronics are fitted with an overheating protection
mechanism. Before the induction coils or cooling elements
get too hot, the overheating protection mechanism cuts in in
one of the following ways:
Induction coils
– If the booster function is being used, this will be switched
off.
– The power level will be reduced.
– The cooking zone will switch off automatically.
"FE" will flash in the timer display alternately with "44".
You will be able to use the cooking zones again as usual
when the fault code has gone out.
Cooling elements
– If the booster function is being used, this will be switched
off.
– The power level will be reduced.
– The cooking zones will switch off automatically.
The affected cooking zones can only be used again as usual
once the cooling element has cooled down to a safe level.
The overheating mechanism can be triggered by:
– Heating up an empty pan.
– Fat or oil being heated up on a high power level.
– Insufficient ventilation to the underside of the appliance.
– A hot cooking zone being switched on after a power cut.
If the overheating protection mechanism triggers again,
contact the Service department.
