Error code FE44
Appliance Cooktop
Quick answer

FE44 on a Miele induction hob has three listed causes: heat, cookware and a blocked fan.

Model compatibility

Miele reuses codes across series and model years, so FE44 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Induction hob overheated, unsuitable cookware or blocked fan.

Work through in order

  1. Let the induction hob cool.
  2. Look at your pans. Magnetic-base stainless steel, enamelled steel and cast iron work; non-magnetic stainless steel, aluminium, copper, glass, ceramic and earthenware do not. A magnet that sticks to the base means the pan is generally suitable.
  3. Check the fan for objects stored in a drawer under the hob, or dust, and clear any blockage.
