Miele KM 451 - Manual (Page 26)

Overheating protection
Each burner is equipped with an inter-
nal temperature limiter. This automati-
cally turns off the heating elements in
the burner before the ceramic surface
becomes too hot. Once the ceramic
surface has cooled to a safe tempera-
ture, the heating will automatically turn
back on again.
The overheating protection can be acti-
vated by:
– turning on a burner without putting a
pan on it.
– heating an empty pan.
– an uneven pan not sitting evenly on
the burner.
– the pan not conducting heat prop-
erly.
If the heating elements cycle on and off
even when the highest setting is se-
lected the overheating protection has
been activated.
