Warning and Safety instructions

This hob complies with all relevant local and national safety requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and material damage.

Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before using the hob. They contain important information on safety, installation, use and maintenance. This prevents both personal injury and damage to the hob.

In accordance with standard IEC 60335-1, Miele expressly and strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the chapter on installing the hob as well as the safety instructions and warnings.

Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by noncompliance with these instructions.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application

This hob is intended for domestic use and use in other similar environments.

This hob is not intended for outdoor use.

It is intended for domestic use only to cook food and keep it warm. Any other use is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

This hob is not intended for use by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision and instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their safety. They may only use the hob unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way. They must be able to recognise and understand the dangers of misuse.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the hob unless they are constantly supervised.

Children over 8 years of age may use the hob without supervision if its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely. Children must be able to understand and recognise the possible dangers caused by incorrect operation.

Children must not be allowed to clean the hob unsupervised.

Please supervise children in the vicinity of the hob and do not let them play with it.

The hob gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after being switched off. Keep children well away from the hob until it has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.

Danger of burning! Do not store anything which might arouse a child's interest in storage areas above or behind the hob. Otherwise they could be tempted into climbing onto the appliance with the risk of burning themselves.

Risk of burning and scalding. Place pots and pans on the cooking zone in such a way that children cannot pull them down and burn themselves.

Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children may become entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over their head with the risk of suffocation. Keep packaging material away from children.

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.

Damage to the hob can compromise your safety. Check the hob for visible signs of damage. Do not use the hob if it is damaged.

Reliable and safe operation of this hob can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

The electrical safety of this hob can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

To avoid the risk of damage to the hob, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

Do not connect the hob to the mains electrical supply by a multisocket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

For safety reasons, this hob may only be used after it has been built in.

This hob must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

Never open the casing of the hob.

Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

While the hob is under warranty, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.

Warning and Safety instructions

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a remote control system.

The connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a suitably qualified gas fitter, e.g. a Gas Safe registered technician in the UK (see “Installation – Gas connection”).

If the plug has been removed from the connection cable or the connection cable is not supplied with a plug, the hob must be connected to the electricity supply by a suitably qualified electrician (see “Installation – Electrical connection”).

If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special mains connection cable by a qualified electrician (see “Electrical connection” in the “Installation” chapter).

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the hob must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. The gas supply must also be shut off. Depending on country this is done in one of several different ways:

-the mains fuse has been disconnected, or

-the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable), or

-switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug from the socket. Pull by the plug and not by the mains connection cable to disconnect from the mains electricity supply.

-the gas inlet valve is closed.

Warning and Safety instructions

Danger of electric shock!

Do not use the hob if it is damaged or if it suffers damage during use. Switch it off immediately. Disconnect it from the mains electricity and gas supply. Call Service.

If the hob is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the door while the hob is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door. This can result in damage to the hob, the housing unit and the floor. Leave the furniture door open until the hob has cooled down completely.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

The hob gets hot when in use and remains hot for some time after being switched off. Do not touch the hob if there is a possibility that it could still be hot.

Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the hob when it is in use could catch fire.

Do not use the hob to heat up the room.

Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the hob unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite do not attempt to put the flames out with water.

Disconnect the hob from the mains and use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.

Do not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used. It should be continually monitored whilst boiling and flash frying.

Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do not flambé under a cooker hood.

Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances in a drawer under the hob. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.

Do not heat an empty pan.

Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars on the hob, as pressure can build up in the container, causing it to explode.

Do not cover the hob, e.g. with a hob cover, a cloth or protective foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the hob is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.

If the appliance is switched on by mistake, or if there is residual heat present, there is the risk of any metal items placed on the hob heating up. Other materials can melt or catch fire. Do not use the appliance as a resting place for anything.

Warning and Safety instructions

You could burn yourself on the hot hob. 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 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.

Plastic and aluminium foil containers melt at high temperatures. Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers on the hob.

When a control knob is pressed down, a spark is generated on the ignitor. Do not press down the control knob while you are cleaning or touching the hob or a burner in the vicinity of an ignitor.

If a cooker hood is installed above the hob, ensure that the burners are always covered with a pan when in use. Otherwise flames could reach the cooker hood, parts of which could then be damaged or even set on fire.

Only light the gas burners after all burner parts have been properly assembled.

Pans must be the correct size for the burner they are used on (see “Suitable Pans”). 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 hob. 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.

Warning and Safety instructions

Do not use pans with very thin bases on this hob, and never heat up empty pans as they could get damaged. This could also damage the appliance.

The pan support supplied with the appliance must always be used. Never place a pan on the burner itself.

Replace the pan supports carefully to avoid scratching the surface of the hob.

Do not use or store flammable materials near this hob.

Remove splashes of fat and other food debris from the surface of the hob as soon as possible. These are a fire hazard.

Avoid allowing liquids or foods containing salt to spill onto the hob. If salty foods or liquids do get on the hob, they should be removed as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.

Using the hob will cause a build-up of heat and moisture in the room in which it is installed. Ensure that the room has sufficient natural or mechanical means of ventilation, e.g. a cooker hood.

If the hob 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 cooker hood 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 hob.

If the hob 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.

Warning and Safety instructions

Cleaning and care

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this hob.

The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir-

cuit.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mater-

ial

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appli-

ance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.
