Why won't my Miele KM 6344 turn on?

  Amy WoodsAug 18, 2025
  If your Miele cooktop or cooking zones won't switch on, the circuit breaker may have tripped. Reset the circuit breaker, referring to the data plate for the correct fuse rating. If resetting doesn't work, there may be a technical fault. In that case, disconnect the appliance from the power supply for about 1 minute by tripping the breaker, removing the fuse, or tripping the GFCI. If it still won't switch on, contact a qualified electrician or Miele Customer Service.

  Samuel SmithAug 20, 2025
  If a cooking zone or the entire Miele cooktop switches off automatically, it could be due to the cooking zone being in use for too long, or the overheat protection being triggered. You can switch the cooking zone back on to continue use.

Why are the sensors on my Miele Cooktop not working?
- M
  Michelle DanielAug 23, 2025
  If the sensors on your Miele cooktop are too sensitive or not reacting at all, it could be due to a change in their sensitivity level. Make sure the cooktop isn't in direct sunlight or strong artificial light, and that the area isn't too dark. Also, ensure that neither the cooktop nor the sensors are covered. Remove any cookware and clean the cooktop to remove any food residues. Interrupt the power supply to the cooktop for about 1 minute. If the issue continues, contact Miele Customer Service.

  If auto heat-up is on but food isn't starting to cook on your Miele cooktop, it might be because you're heating a large amount of food. Start cooking at the highest power level, then manually reduce the power level.

  If your Miele Cooktop switches off during use and a flashing F appears in the timer display, it indicates that one or more sensors are covered. This could be due to fingers, food boiling over, or an object on the control panel. Clean the control panel or remove any obstructions to resolve this issue.
