12
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before installation, check the hob for
~
visible signs of damage. Do not install
and use a damaged appliance. It could
be dangerous.
The electrical safety of this hob can
~
only be guaranteed if correctly earthed.
It is most important that this basic
safety requirement is observed and
regularly tested, and where there is any
doubt, the electrical system in the
house should be inspected by a
qualified electrician. Miele cannot be
held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g.
electric shock).
Before connecting the hob, make
~
sure that the connection data on the
data plate (voltage and frequency)
match the mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the
appliance. Consult a qualified
electrician if in any doubt.
For safety reasons, this hob may
~
only be used after it has been built in.
Do not open the casing of the hob.
~
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.
Installation, maintenance and
~
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. Miele
cannot be held liable for unauthorised
work.
During installation, maintenance and
~
repair work, the hob must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply.
Ensure that power is not supplied to the
appliance until after it has been
installed or until after any maintenance
or repair work has been carried out.
If the hob is fitted with a
~
communication module, in addition to
disconnecting the hob, this module
must also be disconnected from the
mains electricity during installation and
maintenance of the hob as well as while
any repair work is being carried out.
Ensure that power is not supplied to the
hob or the communication module until
the hob has been installed or until after
any maintenance or repair work has
been carried out.
While the hob is under guarantee,
~
repairs should only be undertaken by a
service technician authorised by Miele.
Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
Faulty components must only be
~
replaced by genuine Miele original
spare parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the hob when
Miele replacement parts are used.
If the connection cable is damaged,
~
it must be replaced by a suitably
qualified electrician with a specialist
connection cable of type H 05 V V-F
(pvc insulated), available from Miele.
Do not connect the hob to the mains
~
electricity supply by a multi-socket
adapter or an extension lead. These do
not guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if
~
the ceramic surface is cracked,
chipped or damaged in any way.
Switch it off immediately, and
disconnect it from the mains electricity
supply. Danger of electric shock.
In areas which may be subject to
~
infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the hob and its surroundings in
a clean condition at all times. Any
damage caused by cockroaches or
other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.
Correct use
The hob gets hot when in use and
~
remains hot for quite a while after being
switched off. There is a danger of
burning until the residual heat
indicators go out.
Do not leave the hob unattended
~
whilst it is in use.
Pans that have boiled dry can cause
damage to the ceramic surface for
which Miele cannot be held liable.
Boiling fat or oil could ignite and cause
a fire.
If oil or fat does catch fire, do not
~
attempt to put out the flames with water.
Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan
lid, damp towel or similar to smother the
flames.
Do not use the hob to heat up the
~
room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.
The control panel and the hob frame
~
or hob edges (on hobs with bevelled
edges) can become hot due to the
influence of the following factors:
operating duration, high power level(s),
large pans and the number of cooking
zones being used.
14
Use heat-resistant pot holders or
~
gloves when using the hob. Do not let
them get damp or wet, as this causes
heat to transfer through the material
more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
~
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.
Do not use the hob as a resting
~
place for anything. When the appliance
is switched on either deliberately or by
mistake, or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of metal
objects heating up, with a danger of
burning.
Depending on the material, other
objects left on the hob could also melt
or catch fire.
Damp pan lids might adhere to the
ceramic surface and be difficult to
dislodge.
Switch the cooking zones off after use.
Do not cover the hob, e. g. with a
~
hob cover, a cloth or protective foil.
This could present a fire hazard if the
appliance is switched on by mistake or
it is still warm.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
~
containers. These melt at high
temperatures and could catch fire.
Do not heat up unopened tins of
~
food on the hob, as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
Do not use pots and pans on the
~
ceramic hob with bases with
pronounced edges or ridges, e.g. cast
iron pans. These could scratch or scour
the hob surface permanently.
Aluminium pans or pans with an
~
aluminium base can cause metallic,
shiny marks to appear on the ceramic
surface. These marks can be removed
using a ceramic and stainless steel hob
cleaner (see "Cleaning and care").
Never heat an empty pan unless the
~
manufacturer of the pan expressly
states that you can do so. This could
damage the hob.
Keep the hob clean. Grains of salt,
~
sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning
vegetables) can cause scratches.
Never place hot pans on the area
~
around the controls. The electronic unit
underneath could get damaged.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic
~
surface. Even a light object could
cause damage in certain
circumstances.
To prevent the risk of spillages etc.
~
burning on, remove any soiling as
quickly as possible and ensure that pan
bases are clean, dry and free of
grease.
Do not allow either solid or liquid
~
sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooking zones when
they are hot. If this should occur, switch
off the hob, and carefully scrape off all
the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues
from the hob whilst they are still hot,
using a shielded scraper blade.
Take care not to burn yourself.
If residues are allowed to cool before
being removed, the ceramic surface
would be susceptible to pitting or even
cracking.
Clean the appliance once it has cooled
down.
15
Warning and Safety instructions
When using an electrical appliance,
~
e.g. a hand-held food blender, near the
hob, ensure that the cable of the
electrical appliance cannot come into
contact with the hot hob. The insulation
on the cable could become damaged,
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other
~
inflammable substances should not be
stored in a drawer under the hob.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Always ensure that food is
~
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Some
foods may contain micro-organisms
which are only destroyed by thorough
cooking at a sufficiently high
temperature for long enough.
Therefore, when cooking or reheating
food such as poultry, it is particularly
important that the food is completely
cooked through. If in doubt, select a
longer cooking or reheating time.
If the hob is installed behind a
~
kitchen furniture door, it may only be
used with the furniture door open.
Only close the door when the appliance
is switched off and the residual heat
indicators have gone out.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by non-compliance
with these Warning and Safety
instructions.
16
Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and should be recycled.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
17
Before using for the first time
Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied
with this documentation in the space provided in the "After
sales service, data plate" section of this booklet.
Cleaning for the first time
Remove any protective wrapping and adhesive labels.
^
Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a
^
damp cloth only and then wipe dry.
Before using for the first time
On hobs with bevelled glass edges, a small gap may be
visible between the hob and the worktop during the first
few days after installation. This gap will reduce with time as
the appliance is used and will not affect the electrical
safety of your appliance.
The metal components have a protective coating which may
give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty
connection or appliance, and they are not harmful to health.
18
Single circle zone
How the cooking zones work
Single circle cooking zones have one heating element, whilst
double circle (vario) cooking zones and extended zones have
two. Depending on model, the heating elements may be
separated by an isolating ring.
Each cooking zone has overheating protection (a
temperature limiter), which stops the ceramic surface from
becoming too hot (see "Overheating protection").
When a power level is selected, the heat switches on and the
element can be seen through the ceramic surface.
The temperature of the cooking zones depends on the power
level selected, and is electronically regulated. This controls
the "timing" of a cooking zone, switching the element on and
off.

Operation
How the hob is operated
The hob is equipped with electronic sensor controls which
react to finger contact.
When the hob is switched off only the symbols for the sensors
for switching the hob on and off and the safety lock are
visible. When the hob is switched on all the other sensors
light up as well. The "0" on the numerical keypad lights up
more brightly than the other numbers.
To operate the hob, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you
touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds.
Take care to keep the control panel clean and do not
place anything on top of it. The sensors may fail to react or
they could mistake the article or any dirt for a fingertip
contact, thereby activating a function or even causing the
hob to switch off automatically (see "Safety switch-off".)
Never place hot pans on the sensors. The electronic unit
underneath could get damaged.
20
Switching on
The hob must be switched on before any of the zones can be
used.
Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being
used.
To switch the hob on
Touch the s sensor.
