Problem solving guide

Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily

remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be

needed.

The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault,

and to correct it.

Problem Cause and remedy

The SmartLine element

cannot be switched on.

There is no power to the SmartLine element.

 Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. Con-

tact an electrician or Miele Service (for the min-

imum fuse rating, see data plate).

There may be a technical fault.

 Disconnect the SmartLine element from the mains

electricity supply for approx. 1 minute by

– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the

fuse out completely, or

– switching off the residual current protection

device.

 If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse

box or the residual current protection device, the

SmartLine element will still not switch on, contact

a qualified electrician or Miele Service.

A smell and vapours are

given off when the new

appliance is being used.

The metal components have a protective coating.

When the appliance is used for the first time, this

causes a smell and possibly also vapour. The mater-

ial from which the induction coils are made also gives

off a smell in the first few hours of operation. With

each subsequent use, the odour is reduced until it

disappears completely. The smell and any vapours

given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appli-

ance and they are not hazardous to health.

The power level selec-

ted is flashing.

There is no pan on the cooking zone, or the pan is

unsuitable.

 Use suitable pans (see “Induction - Pans”).
