Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before installation, check the appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance is dangerous.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and rated load) match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.
Never open the housing of the appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised, suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unauthorised and unqualified persons could be dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
–the mains fuse is disconnected,
–the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable),
–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from the socket, or it is switched off at the isolator.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by Miele. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suitably qualified electrician with a specialist connection cable of type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated), available from Miele.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.
Do not use the cooktop if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Danger of electric shock!
Correct use
The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.
Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is in use.
Pans that have boiled dry can cause damage to the ceramic surface for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable.
Boiling fat or oil could ignite and cause a fire.
If oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to put out the flames with water. Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Do not use the appliance to heat up the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects near the appliance could catch fire. The life of the appliance could also be reduced.
The following factors can cause the area around the control panel and the frame or edges of the cooktop to become hot: The length of time the cooktop has been used for, using it on high settings, using large pans, and the number of zones in use at any one time.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
For added protection, it is advisable to use heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.
Do not flambé under a rangehood. The flames could set the rangehood on fire.
Do not heat up unopened tins of food on the cooktop as pressure will build up in the tin, causing it to explode. This could result in injury and scalding or damage.
Do not use pots and pans on the ceramic cooktop with bases with pronounced edges or ridges, e.g. cast iron pans. These could scratch or scour the cooktop surface permanently.
Do not use the appliance as a resting place for anything else. When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of metal objects heating up, with a danger of burning.
Depending on the material, other objects left on the cooktop could also melt or catch fire.
Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be difficult to dislodge.
Switch the cooking zones off after use.
Do not cover the appliance, e.g. with a cooktop cover, a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could be a fire hazard if the appliance is switched on by mistake.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers. These melt at high temperatures and could catch fire.
Pots and pans made of aluminium or with an aluminium base can leave a metallic sheen on the cooktop. This can be removed with the Original Miele ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner (see "Cleaning and care").
Never heat an empty pan unless the manufacturer of the pan expressly states that you can do so. This could damage the appliance.
Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can cause scratches.
Never place hot pans on the area around the controls. The electronic unit underneath could get damaged.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface. Even a light object could cause damage in certain circumstances.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
To prevent the risk of spillages etc. burning on, remove any soiling as quickly as possible and ensure that pan bases are clean, dry and free of grease.
Do not allow either solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium foil to get onto the cooking zones when they are hot. If this should occur, switch off the appliance, and carefully scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues from the cooktop whilst they are still hot, using a shielded scraper blade.
Take care not to burn yourself.
Once the residues have been removed, allow the appliance to cool down, and then clean with the Original Miele ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner.
If the cooktop is built-in behind a furniture door, it must only be operated when the door is open.
Close the furniture door only once the appliance has been switched off and the residual heat indicators have gone out.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held mixer, near the cooktop, ensure that the connection cable doesn't come into contact with the cooktop. The insulation on the cable could become damaged, giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances must not be stored in a drawer under the cooktop. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
14
Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packing has been 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. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. If handled or disposed of incorrectly they could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. Please do not dispose of your appliance with household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your Chartered Agent for advice.
Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
15
Before using for the first time
Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in the "After sales service" section of this booklet.
Cleaning for the first time
Remove any protective wrapping and adhesive labels.
Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a damp cloth only and then wipe dry.
Before using for the first time
On cooktops with bevelled glass edges, a small gap may be visible between the cooktop and the worktop during the first few days after installation. This gap will reduce with time as the appliance is used and will not affect the electrical safety of your appliance.
The metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance, and neither are they hazardous to health.
16
How the cooking zones work
Single circle cooking zones have one heating element, whilst double circle cooking zones and extended zones have two. Depending on the model, the heating elements may be separated by an insulating ring.
Each cooking zone has overheating protection (a temperature limiter), which stops the ceramic surface from becoming too hot (see "Overheating protection").
When a power setting is selected, the heat switches on and the element can be seen through the ceramic surface.
The temperature of the cooking zones depends on the power setting selected, and is electronically regulated. This controls the "timing" of a cooking zone, switching the element on and off.

Use
Operation
This ceramic cooktop is equipped with electronic sensor switches which react to finger contact.
To operate a cooking zone, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds.
The cooking zones and the timer have to be "active" when you want to set or adjust a power setting or the duration. To activate the cooking zone or the timer, touch the appropriate sensor of the cooking zone or the timer. The
sensor will start to flash on and off after you touched it. While the sensor is flashing, set or adjust the power setting or the duration.
Exception:
If there is only one cooking zone in operation, you can set or adjust the power setting without activating it first.
Take care to keep the control area clean. Do not place anything on the control area. The sensor switches may fail to react or they could mistake the article or any dirt for a fingertip contact, thereby activating a function or even causing the cooktop to switch off automatically (see Safety switch-off.)
Never place hot pans on the sensor switches. The electronic unit underneath could get damaged.
18
