up behind the closed door and cause damage to the cooktop,
cabinetry and flooring. Do not close the door until the cooktop has
completely cooled down.
9
Warnings and safety instructions
Proper use
The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while
after being turned off. A burn hazard is present until the residual heat
indicators go out.
Oil and fat can catch fire if overheated. Never leave the cooktop
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If the oil or fat catches
fire, do not attempt to put the flames out with water.
Turn off the cooktop and smother the flames using a lid or a suitable
fire blanket.
The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on fire.
Do not flambé under a hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other flammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore, do not store such items or
substances in a drawer under the cooktop. Any cutlery inserts must
be heat-resistant.
Never heat empty cookware.
Do not heat or can food in closed containers, such as tins or
sealed jars, on the cooktop, as pressure will build up in the container
and cause it to explode.
If the cooktop is covered, there is a risk that the material of the
cover will ignite, explode or melt if the range is still hot or if it is
turned on inadvertently. Never cover the appliance with a cover,
cloth or protective foil.
If the cooktop is on or accidentally turned on, or if it is still hot,
metal objects on the cooktop can heat up. Other items may melt or
catch fire. Damp lids can become attached to the cooktop by
suction. Do not store items on the cooktop. Always turn the burners
off after use.
10
Warnings and safety instructions
You can burn yourself on a hot cooktop. When cooking on the
cooktop, protect your hands by using heat-resistant pot holders or
oven mitts. Only use dry pot holders and oven mitts. Wet or damp
textiles conduct heat more effectively and produce steam, which
poses a burn hazard.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand mixer, near the
cooktop, make sure that the power cable does not come into
contact with the hot cooktop. The cable's insulation could become
damaged.
Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can
cause scratches if they get onto pan bottoms. Make sure that the
ceramic surface and pan bottom are clean before placing any pans
on the cooktop.
Even light objects (such as a salt shaker) can cause damage to
the ceramic cooktop in certain circumstances. Do not drop anything
on the ceramic surface.
Do not place hot pans on the sensor buttons and display as this
could cause damage to the electronics underneath. Do not place hot
pans on the area around the display.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminum
foil, to get on the cooktop when it is hot, as they can damage the
ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, turn off the
appliance immediately and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or
aluminum residues while still hot using a scraper blade. Wear oven
mitts when doing so. Allow the burners to cool down and clean them
with a suitable ceramic cleaning agent.
Pans that boil dry can damage the ceramic surface. Never leave
the cooktop unattended during use.
Pots and pans with rough bottoms can scratch the ceramic
surface. Only use pots and pans that are smooth on the bottom.
11
Warnings and safety instructions
Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can
cause scuff marks and scratches.
Because induction heating works so quickly, the temperature of
the cookware bottom can quickly reach the ignition point of oils and
fats. Never leave the cooktop unattended when it is on!
Do not heat oils and fats for longer than one minute, and never
use the booster.
For people who have a heart pacemaker: Please note that an
electromagnetic field is created in the area immediately surrounding
the cooktop. It is very unlikely to affect a pacemaker. However, if in
any doubt, consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your
doctor.
Objects affected by electromagnetic fields, for instance, credit
cards, CDs and calculators, should be kept away from the cooktop
when it is on.
Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the cooktop can become
hot if the appliance is used intensively for a long time. Do not store
any metal items or utensils in a drawer under the cooktop.
This cooktop is equipped with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted
directly underneath the cooktop, ensure that there is sufficient space
between the drawer and its contents and the underside of the
appliance in order to ensure sufficient ventilation of the cooktop. Do
not store pointed or small items or paper in the drawer. They could
get in through the ventilation slots or be sucked into the housing by
the fan and damage the fan or impair cooling.
Do not use two pans on a cooking zone, a casserole cooking zone
or a PowerFlex zone at the same time.
If the cookware only partially covers the cooking or roasting zone,
the handle could become very hot.
Make sure to place the cookware in the middle of the cooking or
casserole cooking zone!
12
Warnings and safety instructions
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooktop.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
If the cooktop is built in over a self-cleaning oven, the cooktop
should not be used while the self-cleaning process is being carried
out, as this could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on
the cooktop (see relevant section).
13
Caring for the environment
Disposal of the transport packaging material
The packaging material protects the
appliance from transport damage. The
packaging materials used are 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 the
amount of waste. You can return the
packaging to your Miele dealer.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electronic and electrical appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials,
compounds and components which
were essential for their correct
functioning and safety. These could be
hazardous to your health and to the
environment if disposed of with general
waste or if handled incorrectly. Please
do not, therefore, dispose of your old
appliance with general waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle
electrical and electronic appliances in
your local community, dealer, or with
Miele. By law, you are solely
responsible for deleting any personal
data from the appliance prior to
disposal. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

Initial commissioning
Please affix the extra appliance data
plate supplied with this
documentation in the space provided
in the "Service" section of this
manual.
Remove any protective foil and
stickers from the cooktop.
Cleaning the cooktop for the first time
Before using it for the first time, wipe
down the cooktop with a damp cloth
and then wipe it dry.
Turning on the cooktop for the first time
Metal components are protected by a
conditioning agent. Smells and vapour
may occur when the appliance is used
for the first time. The heating of the
induction coils also causes odours in
the first few hours of operation. With
each subsequent use, the odour is
reduced until it disappears entirely.
The smell and any vapors that may
occur do not indicate a faulty
connection or defective appliance and
are not harmful to your health.
Please note that the heating-up time
for induction cooktops is very much
shorter than for conventional
cooktops.
20
Induction
How it works
An induction coil is located under each
burner. When a zone is turned on, this
coil creates a magnetic field that
interacts directly with the base of the
pan and heats it up. The burner itself is
heated up indirectly by the heat given
off by the pan.
An induction burner only works when a
ferromagnetic pan is placed on it (see
"Cookware"). The induction burner
automatically recognizes the size of the
pan.
The symbol is shown in the cooking
zone display and blinks alternately with
the preset power level, if
– the cooking zone has been switched
on without a pan in place, if the pan
is unsuitable (non-magnetic base),
– if the diameter of the base of the pan
is too small,
– or if the pan is taken off the cooking
zone when it is switched on.
When the appliance is switched
on either deliberately or by mistake,
or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of heating
up any metal items placed on the
cooktop.
Burn hazard!
Do not store items on top of the
cooking area. Switch the cooking
zones off after use by turning the
relevant sensor button.
If a suitable pan is placed on the
cooking zone within 3minutes, the
will go out and you can continue as
normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed
on the cooking zone, the cooking zone
will switch off automatically after 3
minutes.
21
Induction
Noises
When you use an induction cooking
zone, the following noises may occur,
depending on the type and shape of the
cookware bottom:
On the higher power settings, it might
buzz. This will decrease or cease
altogether when the power setting is
reduced.
Cookware with bottoms made of
different materials (e.g. sandwich
bottoms) may produce a crackling
noise.
Whistling may occur if connected
cooking zones (see "Booster") are
simultaneously in use and cookware
with bottoms made of different
materials (e.g. in a sandwiched base)
are on them.
The electronics may produce a clicking
sound, especially at lower power
settings.
You might hear a whirring sound when
the cooling fan turns on. It turns on to
protect the electronics when the
cooktop is being used intensively. The
fan may continue to run after the
appliance has been turned off.
22
Induction
Cookware
Suitable cookware is made of:
– Stainless steel with a magnetic
bottom,
– enamel-coated steel,
– cast iron
Unsuitable cookware is made of:
– Stainless steel pans without a
magnetic bottom,
– Aluminium or copper,
– Glass, ceramics, earthenware,
stoneware.
To test whether a pot or pan is suitable
for use on an induction cooktop, hold a
magnet to the bottom of the pan. If the
magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.
If an unsuitable pan is used, the
symbol will flash alternately with the
power level set.
The composition of the pan bottom can
affect the evenness of the cooking
results (e.g., when making pancakes).
– Lift pans into position on the
cooktop. Sliding them into place can
cause scuff marks and scratches.
– The maximum diameter indicated by
manufacturers will often refer to the
diameter of the top rim of the pot or
pan. The diameter of the base
(generally smaller) is more important.
– If possible, use pans with straight
sides. If pans with sloped sides are
used, the induction also takes effect
around the edges of the pan. This
can cause the edge of the pan to
become discolored or the coating to
peel off.
– To make optimum use of the burners,
choose pans with diameters larger
than the innermost markings but
smaller than the outermost markings
(see "Burner data"). If the diameter of
the pan is smaller than the innermost
marking, the pan will not be
recognized and will flash alternately
with the power level set.
– Pots and pans with rough bottoms
can scratch the ceramic surface.
Only use pots and pans that are
smooth on the bottom.
23
Energy saving tips
– Use a lid whenever possible to
minimize heat loss.
– For small quantities, select a small
pan. A small pan on a small burner
uses less energy than a large, only
partially filled pan on a large burner.
– Cook with as little water as possible.
– Once food has come to the boil or
the pan is hot for frying, reduce the
heat to a lower power setting.
– Use a pressure cooker to reduce the
cooking time.
24
Setting range
The cooktop is programmed with 9 power levels at the factory. If you wish to finetune a setting, you can extend the power setting range to 17 power levels (see
"Programming").

These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will vary
depending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason, it is possible that the
settings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the cooktop, you will
get to know which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not
familiar with, set the power level below the one specified.
25
Operation
Basic operation
The ceramic cooktop is equipped with
electronic sensor buttons that react to
finger contact. During activation, the
On/Off sensor button must be
pressed somewhat longer than the
other buttons for safety reasons.
Each reaction of the buttons is
acknowledged with an audible signal.
The cooking zones and the timer have
to be "active" when you want to set or
adjust a power level or the duration. To
activate the zone or the timer, tap the
selection button of the corresponding
zone or the timer. After the selection
button is tapped, the corresponding
zone or timer indicator light will flash.
While the indicator light is flashing, set
or adjust the power level or the
duration.
Exception: If there is only one cooking
zone in operation, you can set or adjust
the power level without activating it
first.
Malfunction can occur due to dirty
and/or covered sensor buttons.
The sensor buttons do not react or
unintentional switching procedures
result, perhaps even the automatic
deactivation of the cooktop (see
"Safety shut-off"). Hot cookware on
the sensor buttons/indicator lights
can damage the connected
electronic module.
Keep the sensor buttons and
indicator lights clean. Do not place
any objects on them, and do not put
hot cookware on them.

Cleaning and care
Burn hazard.
The burners must be turned off and
allowed to cool completely.
Risk of injury.
The steam from a steam cleaner can
reach electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the cooktop.
The use of unsuitable cleaning
agents can discolour or alter the
external surfaces of the cooktop.
The external surfaces of the cooktop
are susceptible to scratching.
Immediately remove any residues left
by cleaning agents.
Allow the CombiSet to cool down
before cleaning.
The cooktop should be cleaned after
each use.
Dry the cooktop after using water to
clean it. This helps prevent lime
deposits.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of the
cooktop, do not use any of the
following when cleaning:
– Dishwashing liquid
– Cleaners containing soda, ammonia,
acids or chlorides

– Stain or rust removers
– Abrasive cleaning agents, such as
powder or cream cleansers, pumice
stones
40
– Solvent-based cleaners
– Dishwasher cleaner
– Grill and oven sprays
– Glass cleaners
– Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g. pot scourers, brushes or
sponges which have been previously
used with abrasive cleaning agents
– Magic erasers
Cleaning and care
Risk of damage from pointed
objects!
Do not use sharp, pointed objects to
clean the area between the glass
ceramic and the trim or between the
trim and the countertop.
Using dishwashing liquid to clean the
cooktop will not remove all soiling
and residues.
It forms an invisible coating which
will cause permanent discolouration
of the ceramic surface.
Clean the glass ceramic surface
regularly with a suitable ceramic
cooktop cleaning agent.
First, wipe away all coarse soiling
from the surface using a damp cloth.
Stubborn soiling may need to be
removed with a scraper blade.
Then, clean the glass ceramic surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel cleaner (see "Optional
accessories") or commercial glass
ceramic cleaner using a paper towel
or clean cloth. Do not put the cleaner
on a hot surface, as this may cause
spotting. Please follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Spots from lime deposits, water, and
aluminum deposits (shiny metallic
spots) can be removed with a
ceramic and stainless steel cleaner.
Burn hazard!
Wear oven mitts when using a
scraper blade to remove sugar,
plastic or aluminum residues from a
hot cooktop.
Should any sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil spill or fall on to a hot
cooking zone while it is in use, first
switch off the appliance.
Then carefully scrape off all the sugar,
plastic or aluminium residues from
the hob whilst they are still hot using
a shielded scraper blade. Take good
care.
Afterwards, clean the glass ceramic
surface in its cooled state, as
described above.
Remove any cleaner residue with a
damp cloth and then dry the glass
ceramic surface.
Residues can burn onto the appliance
the next time it is used and cause
damage to the ceramic surface.
Ensure that all cleaning agent residues
are removed.

Safety instructions for installation
Only a qualified technician shall be permitted to install the cooktop and only
an authorized electrician shall be permitted to connect the power supply.
Install the upper cabinets and ventilation hood before installing the cooktop to
avoid damaging the appliance.
The veneer or laminate coatings of countertops must be treated
with 100°C heat-resistant adhesive which will not dissolve or
become deformed. Wall strips must also be heat-resistant.
The cooktop must not be installed above refrigerators/freezers,
dishwashers, or washer/dryers.
This cooktop must not be installed above ovens or cookers unless
these have a built-in cooling down fan.
Ensure that the power cord cannot be touched after the cooktop
has been installed.
After the installation of the cooktop, the electrical cord may not
come into contact with any moving kitchen parts (e.g. a drawer) or
be subject to mechanical stress.
Observe carefully the safety clearances listed on the following
pages.
All dimensions are indicated in mm.
51
Safety clearances
Safety clearance above the cooktop
For a ventilation hood positioned above
the cooktop, always use the clearance
specified by the hood manufacturer. If
no specifications are available from the
hood manufacturer, or if flammable
materials (e.g. wall shelf) are installed
above the cooktop, the clearance must
be at least 760mm.
If there is more than one appliance
installed below the ventilation hood,
each with a different safety
clearance, the largest clearance must
be used.
52
Safety clearances to the sides and back of the cooktop
Ideally, the cooktop should be installed
with plenty of space on either side.
There may be a wall at the rear or a tall
cabinet or wall on one side (right or left)
(see illustrations).
Safety clearances
Minimum distance between the back
of the countertop cut-out and the rear
edge of the countertop:
50mm
Minimum distance on the right side
between the countertop cut-out and the
closest adjacent piece of furniture (e.g.
tall cabinet) or a room wall:
50mm
Minimum distance on the left side
between the countertop cut-out and the
closest adjacent piece of furniture (e.g.
tall cabinet) or a room wall:
50mm
Not permitted!

53
Safety clearances
Minimum clearance underneath the cooktop
To ensure proper ventilation of the
cooktop, a minimum clearance is
required between the appliance and an
oven, protective base, or drawer.
The minimum clearance from the
bottom of the cooktop to
– The top of an oven is 15mm.
– The top of an interim shelf is
15mm.
– The base of a drawer is 75mm.
Protective base
Installation of a protective base under
the cooktop is allowed but not required.
Leave a gap of 10mm at the back of
the shelf to accommodate the cable.
We recommend a gap at the front of the
shelf of 20mm to ensure good
ventilation.
54
Safety clearances
Safety distance from the wall covering
If a wall covering is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained
between the countertop cut-out and the covering, since high temperatures can
damage these materials.
If the covering is made of a flammable material (such as wood), the minimum
distance between the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be 50mm.
For coverings made of non-flammable materials (such as metal, natural stone,
ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance between the countertop cut-out and
the wall covering is equal to 50mm minus the thickness of the covering.
For example: thickness of wall covering 15mm
50mm - 15mm = minimum distance of 35mm

Instructions for installation
Seal between the cooktop and countertop
Do not use sealant between the
cooktop and the countertop. Doing
so could result in damage to the
cooktop or countertop if the cooktop
ever needs to be removed for
servicing.
The sealing strip under the top edge
of the appliance provides an
adequate seal with the countertop.
Tiled countertop
The grouting and the shaded area
under the cooktop frame must be
smooth and flat so that the frame will sit
evenly on the countertop and so that
the sealing strip under the top edge of
the appliance can provide an adequate
seal with the countertop.

Installation
Preparing the countertop
Create the countertop cut-out as
shown in the cooktop diagram.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see "Safety
clearances").
Seal any cut surfaces on the wooden
countertop with a special varnish,
silicone rubber, or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture. The sealant must be
temperature-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
get on countertop surface.
The sealing strip ensures that the
cooktop will sit securely in the cut-out
without slipping. Any gap between the
trim and countertop will become
smaller over time.
Installing the cooktop
Feed the appliance power cord down
through the counter cut-out.
Center the cooktop in the cut-out.
Make sure that the seal under the
cooktop sits flush with the counter on
all sides. This is important to ensure
an effective seal.
Never seal the cooktop using
additional sealant (e.g. silicone).
If the seal does not sit flush with the
countertop in the corners, the corner
radius (≤R4) can be carefully cut to fit
using a jigsaw.
Connect the cooktop to the electrical
power supply.
Check that the cooktop works.
Connecting the power cable to the appliance
The mains power cable must only be
connected by a suitably qualified and
competent person.
Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see "Electrical connection Wiring diagram").
