Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
Do not lift or carry the Upright Cooker by the oven door handle or
control panel.
Damage to the cooktop can compromise your safety. Check the
appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not use the cooktop if it is
damaged.
Reliable and safe operation of this cooktop can only be assured if
it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is essential that this basic safety requirement is present
and tested regularly. If in doubt, consult a suitably qualified
electrician.
Before connecting the Upright Cooker to the mains supply, ensure
that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency)
match the mains electricity supply.
Compare this data before connecting the appliance to the mains. If
in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (fire hazard). Do not use these to
connect the Upright Cooker to the mains electricity supply.
For safety reasons, this cooktop may only be used after it has
been built in.
This Upright Cooker must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the Upright Cooker will endanger your
safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Do not open the Upright Cooker housing under any circumstances.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele authorised service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
The connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with current
local and national safety regulations. If the plug is removed from the
connection cable or if the cable is supplied without a plug, the
Upright Cooker must be connected to the electricity supply by a
suitably qualified electrician.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven
lighting is faulty, the Upright Cooker must be completely
disconnected from the household electricity supply (see “Problem
solving guide”). The gas inlet valve must be closed. To ensure this:
– Switch off the mains circuit breaker, or
– Remove the screw-out fuse (in countries where this is applicable),
or
– Switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug. Do not pull
on the cable, but pull the plug to do this.
– Close the gas inlet valve.
Danger of electric shock!
Do not use the cooktop if it is faulty. Switch it off immediately.
Disconnect it from the mains electricity and gas supply. Call Miele.

Warning and Safety instructions
If the Upright Cooker is to be built in behind a furniture front (e.g. a
door) do not close the door while the Upright Cooker is in use. Heat
and moisture can build up behind the closed door. This can result in
damage to the Upright Cooker, surrounding cupboards and the floor.
Leave the furniture door open until the Upright Cooker has cooled
down completely.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.
This cooktop is not suitable for installation and operation with
aftermarket lids or covers fitted.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for some
time after being switched off. Do not touch the appliance if there is a
possibility that it could still be hot.
DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE AS A SPACE HEATER.
Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the cooktop
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite, do not
attempt to put the flames out with water.
Switch off the cooktop and use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid,
damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Flames could set the grease filters of a rangehood on fire. Do not
flambé under a rangehood.
DO NOT USE OR STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN THE
APPLIANCE STORAGE DRAWER OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.
CUTLERY INSERTS MUST BE HEAT-RESISTANT.
DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS
APPLIANCE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION.
DO NOT PLACE ARTICLES ON OR AGAINST THIS APPLIANCE.
Do not heat an empty pan.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the cooktop, as pressure can build up in the containers, causing
them to explode.
Do not cover the cooktop, e.g. with a cooktop cover, a cloth or
protective foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the
cooktop is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by
mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of
any metal items placed on the cooktop (e.g. cutlery) heating up.
Depending on the material, other items left on the appliance could
also melt or catch fire. Do not use the appliance as a resting place
for anything else.
You could burn yourself on the hot appliance. Protect your hands
with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and
pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself on steam. Be sure to keep all textiles away from the
gas flames. Do not use oversized cloths, tea towels or other similar
materials.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food mixer,
near the cooktop, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance
cannot come into contact with the hot cooktop. The insulation on the
cable could become damaged.
Plastic and aluminium foil containers melt at high temperatures.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers on the cooktop.
If a rangehood is installed above the cooktop, ensure that the
burners are always covered with a pan when in use. Otherwise
flames could reach the rangehood, parts of which could then be
damaged or even set on fire.
Switch the burner off when a pan is removed, even for a short
time.
Make sure all the components of the gas burner have been
correctly assembled before switching on.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Pans must be the correct size for the burner they are used on (see
“Suitable cookware”). A pan which is too small will be unstable on
the pan support. If the pan diameter is too large, flames can spread
out to the sides and damage or burn the worktop, wall claddings or
surrounding units and also parts of the cooktop. Miele cannot be
held liable for this type of damage.
Ensure that the flames from the burner do not spread out beyond
the base and up the sides of the pan.
Do not use pans with very thin bases on this cooktop, and never
heat up empty pans as they could get damaged. This could also
damage the appliance.
The pan supports supplied with the appliance must always be
used. Do not place cookware directly on the burners.
Place the pan supports down horizontally to avoid scratching.
Remove all grease spatters and other combustible (food) residues
from the cooktop as soon as possible. They are a fire hazard.
Avoid allowing liquids or foods containing salt to spill onto the
cooktop. If salty foods or liquids do get on the cooktop, they should
be removed as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.
The use of the gas cooktop creates heat, moisture and
combustion products in the room where it is installed. Make sure
that the appliance is installed in a location with sufficient ventilation.
Natural ventilation openings should not be blocked. Alternatively, a
mechanical ventilation device (e.g. a rangehood) can be installed.
If the cooktop is used for very long periods of time, additional
ventilation of the room may be necessary, e.g. by opening windows
or doors, or running the rangehood on the highest setting.
Do not use roasting dishes, pans or grilling stones that are large
enough to cover more than one burner. The resulting build-up of
heat could damage the appliance.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
If the appliance has not been used for a long period of time it
should be thoroughly cleaned before it is used again. It is also
advisable to have the appliance tested by a qualified person for
safety.
Stainless steel appliances
The coated stainless steel surface can be damaged by adhesives
and will lose its dirt-repelling properties. Do not adhere sticky notes,
transparent tape, masking tape or other adhesives onto the stainless
steel surface.
The surface is susceptible to scratching. Even magnets can cause
scratches.
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
