So, I dismantled it, couldn't find what was wrong, cleaned it, and put
it back together. About 6 hours altogether. It now works perfectly.

Please, please reassure me that disconnecting it from the electricity
would not have reset it without all the dismantling?

Miele T430, by the way.

It doesn't have a safety temperature cut-out does it? They often take
quite a while to reset themselves. I suppose the cut-out *might*
reset when you disconnect the power.
