Overheating protection
The induction coils and the cooling
element of the electronic are fitted with
a overheating protection feature. This
prevents the induction coils and cooling
element from overheating.
This mechanism works on the affected
burner or on the entire cooktop in the
following ways:
– If the booster function is being used,
it will be switched off.
– If the power level is set between
10
and
12, it will be reduced. The set
and reduced power level will flash
alternately in the display. The
reduced power level is also shown
by the number of segments in the
lighting circle.
– If an induction coil is affected, the
burner will automatically turn off. A
0
and the residual heat indicator will
show in the display.
The burner can be used again as soon
as it has cooled to a safe temperature.
– If the cooling system is affected, all
burners will automatically turn off,
and the display will show
0
alternating with the set power level.
Once the system has sufficiently
cooled, the burners will automatically
operate at the originally set power level.
Overheating can be caused by:
– heating an empty pan.
– fats or oils being heated on the
highest power setting.
– there being insufficient ventilation to
the under side of the appliance.
If the overheating protection
mechanism triggers again, contact
Miele Technical Service.
