15
How to use
How to adjust the flame
The burners can be variably adjusted between the lowest and highest flame.
Be sure to adjust the flame to a level that does not jut out from under the cookware. Because the edges of a gas flame are much hotter than the center of the flame, the tips must remain under the bottom of the cookware. If the flame is too large, excess heat will be produced, which can damage the handles on the cookware and cause the risk of burns.
Wok ring
For added stability, especially for woks with round bases, use the wok ring (supplied).
Make sure the wok ring is properly in place, so that it won't move around. (See illustration.)
How to switch off
^ Turn the control knob to the RIGHT,
to "Off".
The gas supply is interrupted and the flame goes out.

– Choose cookware to suit the size of
the burner. In general, note that: a larger diameter = a larger burner, a smaller diameter = a smaller burner.
– It is better to use broad shallow pots
than tall narrow pots, because broad pots will heat up more quickly.
Cookware
You can use any heat-resistant
cookware on a gas cooktop.
When buying cookware, note that the
diameter given is typically the upper diameter, rather than the bottom diameter.
Follow the recommended diameters
as listed in the Table. If the bottom diameter is too small, the cookware will be unstable. If the upper diameter is too large, heated vapours can extend out from underneath the cookware, potentially causing damage to the countertop, walls, and appliance panels. The manufacturer will not be held liable for such damages.
– Whenever possible, keep pots and
pans covered while cooking. This helps keep in the most possible heat.
– The burner grates supplied with the
appliance must always be used. Never place a pan on the burner by itself.
When using a wok make sure that the base does not touch the burner. A distance of 1 cm should be maintained between the burner and the base of the wok pan above it.
If you choose cookware with a thick bottom, it will conduct heat more evenly. Cookware with a thin bottom may unevenly heat food and lead to overheating in spots. It is important to stir the food so it will heat evenly.
17
Safety cut-off
The gas cooktop is equipped with a thermoelectric safety ignition. In other words, if the gas flame goes out ( e. g., because of overflowing food or a draft), the gas supply is interrupted.
To switch the flame back on again,
^
turn the control knob right to "Off" then switch the burner on as usual.
The safety cut-off is independent of the power supply. In other words, it remains in effect even if there is a power failure.
18
Cleaning and care
General
NEVER use a steam cleaner to
,
clean this appliance. The steam can reach the electrical components and cause the appliance to short circuit.
Clean the entire appliance after each use. Let the appliance cool down before cleaning. Dry the appliance any time water is used to clean it - this helps prevent lime spots.
To prevent changes to the stovetop surface, promptly wipe away any salty foods or liquids.
To avoid damaging the surfaces, do not use any
cleaning products that contain
washing soda, acids/alkali, ammonia, or chlorine bleach,
lime removers,
stain and rust removers,
scouring cleansers, e. g., scouring
powder, scouring liquid, pumice stones,
solvent-based cleansers,
– dishwasher cleaner,
– grill andoven sprays,
– glass cleaner,
– scouring sponges or brushes, e. g.
pot scrubbers,
– sharp objects
(they could damage the seals between the frame and the countertop).
19
Cleaning and care
Stainless steel recess
To clean this area, use only a soft sponge with some dish liquid and warm water. Pre-soak any stubborn residue before cleaning. After cleaning, dry the recess thoroughly with a soft cloth.
If needed, you can use the glass ceramic and stainless steel cleaner (see the section on "Optional accessories"). Make sure to only use the product in the direction of the grain (ridges).
Do not use any stainless steel cleanser on or around the printing. This would rub off the printing. Use only a soft sponge with some dish liquid and warm water to clean this area.
Burner grate, control knob
Remove the burner grate. To clean the grate and knob, use a soft sponge with some dish liquid and warm water. Pre-soak any stubborn residue before cleaning.
Dry all surfaces with a clean, soft cloth after cleaning.
Do NOT clean the burner grate in the dishwasher.
To keep the surfaces from quickly becoming soiled again, we recommend treatment with a stainless steel care product (see the section on "Optional accessories"). Using a soft cloth, apply the product in a thin, even layer.
20
Cleaning and care
Burners
NEVER clean the burner parts in the dishwasher.
Instead, take off all the removeable parts of the burner, and clean them with a soft sponge dipped in warm water and some dish liquid.
Wipe the immoveable part of the burner with a damp cloth.
Gently wipe the ignition electrode and the thermocouple with a well wrung-out cloth.
The ignition electrode must not get wet, or the spark will be extinguished.
After cleaning, dry all surfaces with a clean, soft cloth. Be sure to dry off all the flame openings as well.
Over time, the surface of the burner covers will become somewhat more matte. This is normal and does not represent any material defect.
How to assemble the small, normal, and power burners
^ Arrange the burner head b on the
lower part (base) of the burner d in such a way that the thermocouple e the ignition electrode f and the retaining pins g align through the holes in the burner head.
^ Place the burner cover b evenly onto
the burner head c, so that the notches fit over the retaining pins. To adjust the burner cover into place, turn slightly left or right. Once the burner cover is in the right position, it will not move.
Be sure to assemble the burner parts in the proper order.

When installing a gas stovetop, the cabinetry or walls to ONE side and to the rear of the appliance can be as tall as you wish. However, on the other side there must not be any appliance or furniture that is taller than the installed gas stovetop (see illustrations).
You must ensure that the following minimum safety clearances are kept:
4" (100 mm) to the right or left of the
countertop cut-out to the next closest piece of furniture (e.g., tall cupboard).
2 ”
Highly recommended
– 2" (50 mm) from the countertop

Installation
How to make the countertop cut-out
Use the template to make a
^
countertop cut-out. Be sure to observe the minimum distance from the rear wall and from the left or right to a side wall. See the section on "SAFETY NOTICES FOR INSTALLATION".
Seal any wooden countertop
^
surfaces with a special varnish, silicone rubber, or resin, to help prevent swelling from moisture. The materials used must be temepature-stable.
If, during installation, you find that the frame is not tightly sealed to the countertop at the corners, then the corner edges, ß R4, can be carefully trimmed with a jigsaw.
How to install the gas stovetop
^ Feed the appliance power cord
downward through the countertop cut-out.
^ Set the appliance loosely into place
in the cut-out.
^ Connect the appliance to the power
supply (see the section on "Electrical connection").
^ Establish the gas connection (see the
section on "Gas connection").
^
Use the supplied brackets to hold the appliance in place.
31
Sealing
NEVER use sealing unless it is explicitly called for in the instructions. The sealing strip under the edge of the upper part of the appliance provides a sufficient seal against the countertop.
NEVER use sealing between the upper appliance frame and the countertop! It will hinder access to the appliance during servicing, and the frame and countertop can be damaged as a result.
Tiled surfaces
The grouting a and shaded area under the cooktop frame must be flat and even, so that the frame will lie evenly and the sealing strip under the edge of the upper part of the appliance can provide an adequate seal against the countertop.

Electrical connection
This appliance must be grounded according to local or national codes.
All electrical work should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local codes and with the:
- National Electrical Code ANSI / NFPA 70 for the USA
or
- Canadian Electrical Code Part I for Canada (CSA Standard C 22.1)
,WARNING
Disconnect the appliance from the main power supply before installation or service. To reduce the risk of electric shock, make sure that the appliance is properly grounded after installation.
Power supply
The automatic ignition requires that the appliance be connected to a 120 VAC, 60 Hz power supply. The supply line should be protected by a 15 A fuse.
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug to prevent shock hazards. It should be plugged directly into a properly grounded outlet. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug. If the plug does not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a licensed electrician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy, of an effective grounding system.
Note to the installer
Please leave these instructions with the consumer or the appliance.
Actual power consumption (during ignition only) is 25 W.
This appliance is equipped with a 78 3/4" (2000 mm) long power cord that is ready for connection to the appropriate outlet.
Place the power outlet so that it is accessible after the appliance has been installed in the countertop.
33
Gas connection
Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier.
This appliance must be installed with its own shut off valve and the included gas pressure regulator. Both the valve and the regulator must be easily accessible to the consumer to turn on or shut off the gas supply after the appliance is installed.
This appliance and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply during any pressure testing performed in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa), or isolated from the gas line by closing its individual manual shut off valve at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
The gas connection must be made in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with
- the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA 54 for the USA
or
- the current Can/CGA B 149.1 and .2 Installation Codes for gas burning appliances for Canada.
Make sure that the maximum gas supply pressure before the gas pressure regulator is never more than ½ psi for both natural gas or LP gas.
The minimum supply pressure to get the required gas input is 4" w.c. for natural gas: 10" w.c. for LP gas.
Any pipe connections must be made using a thread sealant approved for gas connections. Failure to correctly install these items could lead to a gas leak and subsequent explosion.
Leak testing of the appliance shall be conducted according to the manufacturer's instructions.
34
Gas connection
Gas pressure regulator
A pressure regulator that is convertible from natural to LP gas (Propane) or vice versa is included with the appliance. The included regulator corresponds with the gas type of the appliance. Verify before installing.
The adjusted pressure is: natural gas - 4" w.c. LP gas - 10" w.c.
For convenience, an AGA or CGA approved flexible stainless steel gas hose (accordion type) may be used between the gas connection and the regulator. This will allow the appliance to be lifted out of the countertop for cleaning or servicing. Make sure that any drawers, cabinet doors, etc., do not rub on this gas hose.
Do not use any regulator unless it has been supplied by Miele. Doing so may cause a gas leak.
If there is any doubt concerning installation contact the Miele Technical Service Department.

b ½" NPT
c Regulator
As shown in the above diagram, the included regulator must be used when connecting the Miele appliance to your gas supply. This item has been customized by Miele to meet all applicable safety requirements. Make sure the regulator is easily accessible for adjustment after the appliance has been installed.
After connecting the appliance check all fittings for gas leaks e.g. with soapy water.
When installed properly, the flame will be steady and quiet. It will also have a sharp, blue inner core that will vary in length proportional to the burner size. Flame adjustment will not be necessary.
35
