IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation and connection
When using your gas appliance
follow basic safety precautions
including the following:
Read all instructions before using
for the first time.
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician.
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.
Install the appliance so that the
power cord and gas piping do not
come into contact with any portion of
the cooktop which may become hot
during use.
Before servicing, turn off the gas
valve and disconnect the power
supply by either removing the fuse,
unplugging the unit or manually
“tripping” the circuit breaker.
This equipment has not been
designed for maritime use or for
use in mobile installations such as
aircraft or recreational vehicles.
However, under certain circumstances
it may be possible for installation in
these applications. Please contact the
nearest Miele Dealer or the Miele
Technical Service Department with
specific requirements.
After connecting the appliance test
for leaks according to the
installation instructions.
If there is any doubt concerning
installation contact Miele’s
Technical Service Department.

Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
meet the safety requirements of this
appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Correct usage
Do not operate the cooktop until it
is properly installed in the
countertop.
This appliance is intended for
residential cooking only.
Use the appliance only for its
intended purpose. The
manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damages caused by
improper use of the cooktop.
Be sure drafts do not blow
flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they
extend beyond the edges of the pan.
Install the cooktop in a room that
has sufficient ventilation.
This appliance must not be
operated outdoors.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any
part of the cooktop.
For proper lighting and
performance of the burners, keep
the igniters clean and dry.
Make sure all components of the
gas burners are assembled
correctly before using the cooktop.
Ensure that any burners in use are
always covered with a pan.
Do not use pans that extend past
the burner grate. Using larger pans
may cause the flames to spread out
and damage the surrounding
countertop or other countertop
appliances.
For safety and stability, do not use
pans with a bottom diameter
smaller than the burner grate.
Only certain types of glass,
ceramic or other glazed cookware
are suitable for use on a cooktop
without breaking due to the sudden
temperature change.
Do not store aerosols, gasoline,
combustibles or any other
flammable materials underneath or
adjacent to the cooktop.
WARNING - NEVER use this
appliance as a space heater to heat
or warm the room. Doing so may
result in carbon monoxide poisoning
and overheating.
Protection from damage
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the appliance. Steam could
penetrate electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Spills containing salt or sugar
should be removed immediately.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Personal safety
The burners become very hot
when in use. Make sure that no one
comes in contact with them.
Do not leave children unattended
in an area where the appliance is in
use.
Do not store toys or items of
interest to children in cabinets
above or behind the cooktop. Children
climbing onto the cooktop to reach
these items may become seriously
injured.
Do not allow children to operate or
play with the cooktop. Keep all
pans out of the reach of children.
Use only dry, heat resistant
potholders. Moist or damp
potholders used on hot surfaces can
result in steam burns. Do not let the
potholder touch the hot burners. Do not
use towels or other bulky items near the
appliance.
Do not leave the cooktop
unattended while in use. Boil-overs
cause smoking, and greasy spill-overs
may ignite.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother any fire or flame, or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Do not flambé under an exhaust
hood. Flames could be drawn up
into the hood by the suction or the
grease filters may ignite.
For safety reasons the flame
should be adjusted to be the same
size as the bottom of the pan or smaller.
Do not use small pans with high flame
settings as the flames can climb the
sides of the pan.
Only use cooking utensils suitable
for cooktop use.
Always position pan handles and
utensils inward so they do not
extend over adjacent work areas,
burners or the edge of the cooktop.
Be aware of loose fitting or hanging
garments when operating the
cooktop, they may present a fire
hazard.
Do not heat unopened food
containers. Built-up pressure may
cause the container to burst and result
in injury.
Do not store items on the cooktop
when not in use.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate
on the appliance.
If there is a drawer directly
underneath the appliance without a
wooden base in between, ensure that
no aerosols, combustible liquids or
other easily flammable materials are
kept in it. If cutlery inserts are to be
placed in the drawer, these must be
made of a heat-resistant material.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Damage to the appliance
In the event of damage or a defect,
turn off the appliance immediately.
Turn off the gas shut off valve and
disconnect completely from the
electricity supply. Contact the Miele
Technical Service Department.
Do not use the appliance until it has
been repaired.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance while repair work is carried
out.
Repairs should only be performed
by qualified technicians to ensure
safety. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Under no circumstance
open the outer casing of the appliance.
While the appliance is under
warranty repairs should only be
performed by a Miele authorized
service technician. Otherwise the
warranty is void.
Further safety notes
When using a portable appliance
near the cooktop, make sure that
its power cord does not come in
contact with the cooktop.
Do not use containers made of
plastic or aluminum. They may melt
at high temperatures.
Do not heat empty pots or pans,
they may be damaged.
Before discarding an old
appliance, disconnect it from the

Before using the cooktop
Cleaning the cooktop
Before using for the first time clean the
appliance as follows:
Wash the gas burner assembly with a
^
mild solution of warm water and
liquid dish soap.
Wipe dry and reassemble the parts in
^
the proper order (see “Cleaning and
care”).
Wipe the cooktop with a damp cloth
^
and dry thoroughly.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight odor
the first time your new appliance is
heated.
The harmless odor will dissipate after a
short time and does not indicate a
faulty connection or appliance defect.
