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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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.
