Overheat Protection - Miele KM 5947 Operating And Installation Instructions

Safety features

Overheat protection

All induction coils and the cooling
elements for the electronics are fitted
with overheating protection. Before the
induction coils or the cooling elements
overheat, the overheat protection
initiates the following measures for the
affected cooking zone or the entire
cooktop:
– Any Booster function in operation will
be switched off.
– The power level set will be reduced.
– If an induction coil is affected, the
error message FE99 appears, and
the cooktop switches itself off.
The error message goes out, and a
residual heat indication will appear in
the display for each cooking zone that
is still hot.
Only when the induction coil has cooled
down sufficiently can operation again
be resumed in the usual manner.
– If a cooling element is affected, the
power supply to the cooking zones
will be reduced, and the power level
set will remain displayed.
As soon as the cooling element has
cooled down sufficiently, the cooking
zones will automatically resume
operation at the power levels originally
set.

The overheat protection can be
triggered if:
– Empty cookware is being heated.
– Fats or oils are heated at high power
settings.
– The underside of the appliance is
insufficiently ventilated.
If despite the removal of the cause the
overheat protection is triggered again,
contact customer service.
