Frequently Asked Questions

Possible cause and remedy
There is no power to the cooktop.
 Check if the circuit breaker has tripped. Contact
an electrician or Miele Service (for the minimum
fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
 Turn the burner knob to 0.
 Disconnect the appliance from the electric power
supply for approx. 1 minute by:
– tripping the relevant circuit breaker or screwing
the fuse out completely, or
– tripping the ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI).
 If, after resetting/replacing the fuse or the GFCI,
the appliance still will not turn on, contact a
qualified electrician or Miele Service.
The cooktop's metal components are protected by a
conditioning agent. Smells and vapor may occur
when the appliance is used for the first time. The
smell and any vapors that may occur do not indicate
a faulty connection or defective appliance and are not
harmful to your health.
This "cycling" of the heating is normal. It is caused
by the electronic temperature control (see "How the
burners work").
If the heating cycles at the highest power level, the
overheat protection has been triggered (see
"Overheat protection").
