Safety features
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, this will be switched off.
–The power level will be reduced.
–If an induction coil is affected, the cooktop will switch off. The fault code FE99 will be displayed.
The burner can be used again as soon as it has cooled to a safe temperature.
–If the cooling element is affected, the power supply to the burners will be reduced, and the set power level will continue to be displayed.
As soon as the cooling element has cooled sufficiently, the burners will automatically continue to operate at the original power setting.
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.
