Miele Thermal Overload / Ventilation Issue

Induction cooktop shuts off unexpectedly during cooking with no error code, often at high power.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Blocked ventilation under cooktop, Failed or weak cooling fan, Excessive ambient temperature in cabinet, Dust buildup on heatsinks

Safety: Allow the cooktop to cool and disconnect power before cleaning or disassembly.

Clear space: Remove any stored items under the cooktop. Ensure vents are not blocked by panels or insulation.
Clean fan and heatsinks: Access the underside and clean dust from the cooling fan and heatsinks on the power module.
Fan test: With power restored, run a zone and confirm the fan starts. Replace the fan if it does not run or is noisy.
Usage adjustment: Avoid running all zones at maximum power in poorly ventilated installations.
