When to stop immediately?

Stop if you notice: FE 35 returns after power cycling, You smell burning from the cooktop.

Safe Checks You Can Do

These checks are safe for homeowners. No disassembly required. Do not remove panels or access internal components.
  1. 1

    Power cycle

    Turn off the cooktop at the circuit breaker for 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

    If FE 35 was caused by a momentary voltage dip, this may resolve it.

  2. 2

    Check circuit breaker

    Verify the cooktop breaker hasn't tripped and is firmly in the ON position.

    Miele induction cooktops require a dedicated 40A circuit with 208–240V.

  3. 3

    Check for power issues

    Note if other high-draw appliances (dryer, AC) are running simultaneously on the same circuit panel.

    Voltage can drop below spec when the home electrical load is very high.

When to Call a Professional

Contact a qualified Miele technician if:

  • Ribbon cable between filter and power electronic damaged
  • Supply voltage below 208V
  • Filter electronic board failure
  • Selection electronic board failure
