IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Make certain that the power cords of
~
small appliances do not come in contact with the appliance. The insulation of the cable could become damaged. Danger of electric shock!
Areas around the cooktop (the
~
cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of beveled cooktops) may become hot due to the following factors: operating time, high output settings, large cook ware, and number of burners in operation.
Be careful not to drop anything on
~
the ceramic surface of the cooktop. Even lightweight objects may cause damage.
Use the proper pan size. Select
~
cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element and may result in ignition of clothing or handles becoming hot. The proper size pot or pan will also improve efficiency.
Do not use pots or pans with
~
pronounced edges or ridges on the ceramic cooktop. These could scratch the cooktop permanently. See "Selecting cookware" for more information. Grains of salt and sand can cause scratches. Make sure that the bases of any pots and pans are clean, free of any fat or oils and are dry.
To prevent damage to the cooktop
~
do not use pots and pans with thin bases on the cooktop. Never heat an empty pan unless the pan manufacturer states that you can do so.
Before using glass, glass/ceramic,
~
ceramic, earthenware or other glazed cookware verify that they can be used on a cooking surface.
Do not use plastic or aluminum foil
~
cookware. It melts at high temperatures. Fire hazard.
To prevent burns and breathing
~
difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning. Some cleaners may produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot surface.
Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of
~
salt and sand can cause scratches.
When wiping spills on a hot cooktop
~
with a wet sponge or cloth, be careful to avoid steam burns.
Do not let flammable materials,
~
i.e. cooking grease, accumulate on the appliance.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
~
this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Before using for the first time
Clean the cooktop
Before using for the first time, clean
^
the appliance with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use liquid dish soap to clean the cooktop, this may cause permanent blue discolorations.
Heat the cooktop
Only for facet cooktops: A small gap between the cooktop and the work surface may be visible in the first days of operation. It will become smaller during use. Despite this small gap, the electrical safety of your appliance is always ensured.
Metal components of the appliance have a protective coating which may give off a slight odor the first time the appliance is heated.
The smell will dissipate after a short time and does not indicate a faulty connection or appliance defect.
11
How the burners operate
One-zone burners use one heating strip; two-zone burners and grill zones have two heating strips. Depending on the model, the heating strips may be separated by a ring.
Each burner has overheating protection (internal temperature limiter) feature to prevent the ceramic glass from overheating (see "Overheat protection").
When a power level is set, the heat element turns on and the heating strip is visible through the ceramic glass.
The power setting determines how hot the burner will get, and is electronically regulated. This means that the burner will switch on and off as needed to maintain the selected power level.

Control knobs for variable burners have a stop. Burners can be turned On by turning the knob to the right, and turned Off by turning it to the left. Do not rotate the knob past the stop to "0" or damage will result.
Turning on
Do not leave the appliance unattended when operating!
Press in the control knob and rotate
^
it:
right or left for a standard burner to
the desired output level.
right for a variable burner to the
desired output level.
Turning on the second heating ring
^ Press the control knob in and turn it
to the right past "12" to the stop.
^ Turn the control knob to the left to the
desired output level.

13
Operation
Residual heat indicator
After turning on a burner, for example the left front, a specified temperature is reached, the associated residual heat indicator lights up.
After turning off the burner, the residual heat indicator will go out. The residual heat indicator will turn off once the cooking zone is safe to the touch.
Do not touch the burner or rest any objects on the cooktop when the residual heat indicator is on. Danger of burns!
14
Selecting cookware
Use cookware with thick, flat, smooth
bottoms. Slightly concave bottoms will also work adequately. Pans with convex bottoms will not cook well.
cold hot
Cast iron, glass or stoneware should
not be used because they have poor heat transfer and may scratch the cooktop surface.
– Also unsuitable is plastic or
aluminum foil cookware. These melt at high temperatures.
Copper bottom and aluminum
pans may leave a residue on the cooktop in the form of metallic lines. This is normal. These lines can be removed using a non-abrasive ceramic cooktop cleaner or a shielded scraper blade.
Be sure to clean the cooktop after each use. Each time this residue is allowed to melt it becomes harder to remove and may mar the appearance of the cooktop. Let the cooktop cool before cleaning.
Use only pots and pans with flat bases. Sharp pot and pan bases scratch the ceramic glass surface.
Energy saving tips
For the most even and energy
efficient cooking, the diameter of the pots/pans should match the diameter of the burners as closely as possible.
too small fits
Whenever possible, keep pots and
pans closed while cooking. This helps keep in the most possible heat.
open closed
– Use a small pot for small amounts. A
small pot on a small burner needs less energy then a larger partly filled pot on a large burner.
Use little water when cooking and take care to select a lower energy level as soon as cooking is completed.
For longer cooking periods, you can switch off the cooking zone 5 to 10 minutes before the total cooking time is completed. The residual heat will continue to cook the food.
Lift the cookware when moving it. In this way you will avoid streaking from friction and scratching.
15
Overheat protection
Each cooking zone is equipped with a temperature limiter. This feature automatically turns off the heating element before the glass ceramic becomes too hot. Once the ceramic surface has cooled to a safe temperature the heating element will automatically turn back on.
The overheat protection may be activated by:
turning on a burner without putting a
pan on it.
heating an empty pan.
– an uneven pan not sitting evenly on
the burner.
– the pan not conducting heat
properly.
If the heating elements cycle on and off, even at the highest setting, the overheating protection has been activated.
16
Cleaning and Care
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Pressurized steam could cause permanent damage to the surface.
Do not use any sharp pointed objects which could damage the seal between the ceramic surface, the surrounding frame and the countertop.
Never use abrasive cleaners, caustic (oven) cleaners, dishwasher detergent, scouring pads, steel wool or hard brushes. They will damage the surface.
The ceramic surface can be cleaned using a cleaner for ceramic surfaces. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Make sure that no cleaner residue remains on the ceramic surface by carefully wiping the cooktop with a damp cloth. They may damage the cooktop or produce toxic fumes when heated.
Be sure that pot and pan bases are clean and dry.
Clean any spills immediately before they become difficult to remove.
Clean the appliance regularly, preferably after each use. Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning.
Ceramic surfaces
Wipe off any soiling using a damp
^
cloth. Stubborn soiling is best removed with a shielded scraper blade.
Apply a ceramic cleaner (available
^
from Miele) using a soft cloth or paper towel.
^ To remove any limescale deposits or
metallic residue apply a ceramic cleaner using a soft cloth or use a shielded scraper blade if necessary.
^ After cleaning wipe the ceramic
surface with a damp cloth and dry.
A cleaner with a special additive to prevent water marks and smears on the ceramic surface may be used.
Any melted solids like sugar, plastic or aluminum foil should be removed as quickly as possible, while the burner is still warm. If they are allowed to harden the cooktop may become pitted.
^
Turn the burner off.
After cleaning dry the ceramic surface with a soft cloth to prevent a build up of limescale deposits.
^
Using a shielded scraper blade, scrape the melted item immediately off the burner while it is still hot. Use caution: Danger of burns!
^
Allow the cooktop to cool and clean as previously described.
