Miele Cooktop FE44 Error Code
What it means
The induction cooktop has overheated; unsuitable cookware or a blocked cooling fan may be involved.
Try this first
- Allow the cooktop to cool down.
- Use induction-compatible cookware; Miele lists magnetic-base stainless steel, enameled steel, and cast iron as suitable materials.
- A magnet that sticks to the base is a general check that the cookware is induction-compatible.
- Check below the cooktop for objects, dust, or other material blocking the fan and remove the blockage.
- If the fault continues, arrange Miele service.
