IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Technical safety

Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by
a Miele authorized service technician in accordance with national and local safety regulations and the provided installation instruc‐ tions. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department for examina‐ tion, repair or adjustment. Repairs and other work by unauthorized persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so. Service work may only be performed by a qualified technician.
A damaged cooktop can be dangerous. Always check for visible
signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the cooktop can only be guaran‐
teed if it is connected to the public power supply.
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appli‐ ance, 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.
Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been instal‐
led correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified technician.
To avoid damaging the cooktop, make sure that the connection
data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the building's power supply before connecting the appliance. When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a pow‐
er bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guaran‐ tee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, the cooktop may only be used when it has
been fully installed.
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the cooktop will endanger your safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions. Do not open the casing of the cooktop under any circumstances.
Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorized service techni‐
cian will void the warranty.
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safe‐ ty of the appliance.
The appliance is not intended for use with an external timer switch
or a remote control system.
Connection of the cooktop to the electrical power supply must
only be performed by a qualified electrician (see "Electrical connec‐ tion").
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified
electrician with a special power cord, which is available from Miele Service. See "Electrical connection."
The appliance must be completely disconnected from the elec‐
tricity supply during installation, maintenance and repair work. En‐ sure that power is not supplied to the appliance until after it has been installed or until any maintenance or repair work has been car‐ ried out. Disconnect by
– removing the fuse, – "tripping" the circuit breaker, or – unplugging the unit (if equipped with plug). Pull the plug not the
cord.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the cooktop is fitted with a communication module, in addition
to disconnecting the cooktop, this module must also be disconnect‐ ed from the electrical supply during installation and maintenance of the cooktop as well as while any repair work is being carried out.
Risk of electric shock!
If the ceramic surface of the cooktop is defective or chipped, cracked or broken in any way, immediately turn the cooktop off and do not continue to use it. Disconnect the cooktop from the power supply and contact Miele.
If the cooktop is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the cooktop is in operation. Heat and moisture can build up behind the closed door and cause damage to the cooktop, cab‐ inetry, and flooring. Do not close the door until the cooktop has completely cooled down.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper use

The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while af‐
ter being turned off. There is a potential hazard until the residual heat indicator goes out.
When in use, the cooktop emits a significant amount of heat,
which can cause objects in the vicinity to catch fire. Never use the cooktop to heat the room.
Do not leave the cooktop unattended when cooking on high pow‐
er. Spilled food will begin to smoke and cause grease splatter, which can ignite on the cooktop.
Oil and fat can catch fire if overheated. Never leave the appliance
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.
Smother the fire or flames, or use a dry chemical extinguishing
agent or foam fire extinguisher.
Storage in or on the appliance: Flammable materials should not
be stored in an oven or in the vicinity of the cooktop.
The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on
fire. Do not flambé under a ventilation hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances in a drawer under the appliance. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resist‐ ant.
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.
10
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 turned on inadvertently. Never cover the cooktop with a board, cloth or protec‐ tive sheet.
If the cooktop is turned 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 burn‐ ers off after use!
You could burn yourself on the hot cooktop. Protect your hands
with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand mixer, near the
cooktop, make sure that the power cable does not come into con‐ tact 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 under pan bases. Make sure that the ce‐ ramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.
Even a light object 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.
11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminum
foil to get onto the burners when they are hot, as they can damage the ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, turn off the appliance and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminum resi‐ dues while still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Wear oven gloves. Allow the burners to cool down and clean them with a suita‐ ble ceramic cleaning agent.
Pans that boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do not
leave the appliance unattended while it is being used.
Pots and pans with bases with pronounced edges or ridges can
scratch the ceramic burner. Only use pots and pans with smooth bases.
Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.
Fire hazard! Loose-fitting or hanging garments can catch fire. Be
sure to wear appropriately fitting clothing when cooking. Never allow loose clothing or flammable materials to come into contact with the burners while the burners are in use.
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 the
area immediately surrounding the cooktop is electromagnetically charged. 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.
12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 appli‐ ance 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 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 roasting zone.
Wet sponges or clothes can cause burns due to hot steam if they
are used to wipe spilled food off a hot burner. Some cleansers can emit hazardous vapors if they are applied to a hot surface. Be care‐ ful when cleaning the cooktop.
If the burner is damaged, cleansers or spilled food can penetrate
the glass surface and cause a short-circuit. Never cook on a dam‐ aged burner. Contact an electrician immediately.
13
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Cleaning and care

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooktop.
The steam may reach electrical components and cause a short cir‐ cuit.
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).

Please adhere the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this doc‐ umentation in the space provided in the "Technical service, data plate, warranty" section of this manual.
Remove any protective foil and stick‐
ers.

Cleaning the cooktop for the first time

Before first use, wipe down the appli‐
ance with a damp cloth and dry it.

Before using for the first time

Turning on the cooktop for the first time

Metal components are protected by a conditioning agent. Smells and vapor may occur when the appliance is used for the first time. The heating of the in‐ duction coils also causes odors in the first few hours of operation. With each subsequent use, the odor is reduced until it disappears entirely.
The smell and any vapors do not indi‐ cate a faulty connection or a defective appliance and are not harmful to your health.
Please note that the heat-up time for induction cooktops is very much shorter than for conventional cook‐ tops.
19

Induction

How it works

An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a zone is turned on, this coil creates a magnetic field that impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on it (see "Cookware"). The induction zone automatically recognizes the size of the pan.
In the cooking zone indicator, the sym‐ bol will flash alternately with the se‐ lected power setting:
– No cookware or unsuitable cookware
(items without a magnetizable bot‐ tom) is being used.
– The bottom diameter of the cook‐
ware being used is too small.
– The cookware is removed from a
cooking zone that is on.
When the appliance is turned on
either inadvertently or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of the metal items heating up.
Danger of burns! Do not use the cooktop as a storage
space. Turn the zones off after use with the appropriate sensor buttons.
If suitable cookware is placed on the cooking zone within 3 minutes, the goes out, and you can continue as usu‐ al.
If no cookware or if unsuitable cook‐ ware is used, the cooking zone will au‐ tomatically turn off after 3 minutes.
20

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 alto‐ gether when the power setting is re‐ duced.
Cookware with bottoms made of differ‐ ent materials (e.g. sandwich bottoms) may produce a crackling noise.
Whistling may occur if connected cook‐ ing zones (see "Booster") are simulta‐ neously in use and cookware with bot‐ toms made of different materials are on them.
The electronics may produce a clicking sound, especially at lower power set‐ tings.
Induction
You might hear a whirring sound when the cooling fan turns on. It turns on to protect the electronics when the cook‐ top is being used intensively. The fan may continue to run after the appliance has been turned off.
21
Induction

Cookware

Suitable cookware is made of:
– stainless steel with a magnetizable
bottom – enamel-coated steel – cast iron Unsuitable cookware is made of: – stainless steel with a non-magnetiza‐
ble bottom – aluminum, copper – glass, ceramics, earthenware, stone‐
ware. To test whether a pot or pan is suitable
for use on an induction cooktop, hold a magnet to the base of the pan. If the magnet sticks, the pan is suitable. If an unsuitable pan is used, the sym‐ bol will flash alternately with the power level set.
The composition of the pan bottom can affect the evenness of the cooking re‐ sults (e.g., when making pancakes).
– Lift pans into position on the cook‐
top. Sliding them into place can cause scuffs and scratches.
– Often the maximum diameter quoted
by manufacturers refers to the diam‐ eter of the top rim of the pot or pan. The diameter of the base (generally smaller) is more important.
– 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 recog‐
nized and will flash alternately with
the power level set. – Pots and pans with bases with pro‐
nounced edges or ridges can scratch
the ceramic burner. Only use pots
and pans with smooth bases.
22
– Use a lid whenever possible to mini‐
mize 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.

Energy saving tips

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 set‐ tings 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. For new cookware whose properties for use you are not yet familiar with, set the next lowest power level than the one specified.
24

Operation

Basic operation

The ceramic cooktop is equipped with electronic sensor buttons that react to finger contact. During activation, the On/Off sensor button muss be pressed somewhat longer than the oth‐ er buttons for safety reasons. Each reaction of the buttons is ac‐ knowledged with an acoustic 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 dura‐ tion. Exception: If there is only one cooking zone in operation, you can set or adjust the power level without activating it first.
Malfunction due to dirty and/or cov‐ ered sensor buttons
The sensor buttons do not react or unintentional switching procedures result, perhaps even the automatic deactivation of the cook top (see "Safety switch-off"). Hot cookware on the sensor buttons/indicator lights can damage the connected electronic module.
Keep the sensor buttons and indica‐ tor lights clean, do not place any ob‐ jects on them, and do not put hot cookware on them.
25

Operation

TwinBooster / Booster

The cooking zones are equipped with a booster or TwinBooster (see "Overview – Cooking zone"). You can use the booster for a maximum of two cooking zones at the same time.
When activated, the power is boosted for a maximum of 15 minutes so that large quantities can be heated quickly, e.g., pasta water.
If the booster function is turned on when
– no power level has been selected,
the cooking zone will revert automati‐ cally to level 9 at the end of the booster time or if the booster func‐ tion is turned off before this.
– a power level has been selected, the
cooking zone will revert automatically to the setting selected at the end of the booster time or if the booster function is turned off before this.
Two cooking zones are connected so the power for the booster can be ach‐ ieved. The connected zone will operate at reduced power while the booster is on. This has one of the following ef‐ fects:
– If the Auto Heat-up was previously
active, it will be turned off.
– The power level that is set will be re‐
duced.
– The connected cooking zone will be
turned off.

Three-finger control is the default set‐ ting. You can change the default to one-finger control (see "Program‐ ming").
Your cooktop is equipped with a safety lock to prevent the cooktop and the cooking zones being turned on or any settings being altered.
The system lock is activated when the cooktop is turned off. When it is acti‐ vated, the cooktop cannot be turned on and the timer cannot be used. The cooktop is programmed so that the system lock must be activated manual‐ ly. It can be programmed to be activat‐ ed automatically 5 minutes after the cooktop has been turned off if the sys‐ tem lock is not manually activated first (see "Programming").
The safety lock is activated when the cooktop is turned on. When the safety lock is activated, the cooktop can be operated only under certain conditions:
– The power levels for the cooking
zones and the timer settings cannot
be changed. – The cooking zones, entire cooktop,
and the timer can be turned off, but

Safety features

Overheat protection

All the induction coils and the cooling elements for the electronics are equip‐ ped with an overheating protection mechanism. To prevent the induction coils and cooling elements from over‐ heating, the overheating protection mechanism works on the affected cooking zone or on the entire cooktop in the following ways:
Inductive coils
– Any booster function in operation will
be turned off.
– The power level that is set will be re‐
duced.
– The cooking zone turns off automati‐
cally.  flashes in the timer display alternatingly with .
You can use the cooking zones again as usual when the fault message has gone out.
Cooling elements
Overheating can be caused by: – Heating empty cookware – Fats or oils being heated at high
power settings – Underside of cooktop insufficiently
ventilated – A hot cooking zone being turned on
after a power outage If, despite elimination of the cause, the
overheat protection is triggered again, contact Miele Service.
– Any booster function in operation will
be turned off.
– The power level that is set will be re‐
duced.
– The cooking zones turn off automati‐
cally.
The affected cooking zones can only be used again if the cooling element has cooled down to a safe level.

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 could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooktop.
All cooktop surfaces can become discolored or damaged if unsuitable cleaning agents are used.
The outer surfaces of the cooktop are susceptible to scratching.
Immediately remove any residues left by cleaning agents.

Unsuitable cleaning agents

To prevent damage to surfaces, avoid the following while cleaning:
– Liquid dish soap – Cleaners containing soda, alkaline,
ammonia, thinners, or chlorides – Descaling agents – Stain or rust removers – Abrasive cleaning agents, such as
powder or cream cleansers, pumice
stones – Solvent-based cleaners, – Dishwasher detergent – Grill and oven sprays – Glass cleaning agents – Hard, abrasive brushes or sponges,
e.g., pot scourers, brushes or spong‐
es which have been previously used
with abrasive cleaning agents – Eraser sponges
39
Cleaning and care
Do not clean the area between the glass-ceramic surface and the frame or the frame and the counter with sharp objects.
This could cause damage to the seals.
When cleaning with dishwashing liq‐ uid, not all contaminants and resi‐ dues are removed.
An invisible film forms, which causes discoloration of the ceramic. This discoloration cannot be removed.
Clean the cooktop on a regular basis with a special ceramic cleaner.
First wipe down the surface with a damp cloth to loosen soiling, then re‐ move stubborn crusting with a glass scraper.
Clean the cooktop with the Miele ce‐ ramic and stainless steel cleaner (see "Optional accessories") or a commer‐ cial ceramic cleaner and paper towel or a clean cloth. Do not put the cleaner on a hot cooktop since this may cause spotting. Please follow the manufactur‐ er's instructions.
Danger of burns!
Wear pot holders and use a glass scraper to remove sugar, plastic or aluminum residues from the hot cooktop.
Should any sugar, plastic or alumi‐ num foil spill or fall onto a hot cooking zone while it is in use, first turn off the appliance. Then carefully scrape off these residues from the cooktop imme‐ diately while they are still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Allow the appli‐ ance to cool down, and then clean the cooktop when it has cooled down as described above.
Then clean the cooktop with a damp cloth and dry it off. Cleaner residues will burn into the cooktop during subse‐ quent uses, damaging the surface. Make sure you remove all residues.
Spots from lime deposits, water, and aluminum deposits (metallic spots) can be removed with a ceramic and stain‐ less steel cleaner.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - INSTALLATION

Installation and connection of
the cooktop to the electrical power
supply may only be performed by a
qualified electrician.
Install the upper cabinets and venti‐
lation hood before installing the
cooktop to avoid damaging it.
Reaching over a hot cooktop
to access the cabinets can result in burns. You can reduce the risk of burns by installing a ventila‐ tion hood that extends at least 4 ³/₄" (12 cm) past the bottom of the cabinets. Do not install any cabinets above the cooktop.
The countertop must be heat-
resistant (up to 212°F / 100°C), so that it does not become de‐ formed or the veneer detached. The wall strips must be heat-re‐ sistant as well.
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 mechan‐ ical stress.
Observe carefully the safety
clearances listed on the following pages.
The cooktop must not be in‐
stalled above refrigerators/freez‐ ers, dishwashers, or washer/ dryers.
This cooktop may only be in‐
stalled above a stove or oven if they have a built-in cooling fan.
Ensure that the power cord
cannot be touched after the cooktop has been installed.
49

Safety clearances

Safety clearance above the cooktop

For a ventilation hood above the cook‐ top, always use the clearance specified by the hood manufacturer. If there are no specifications from the hood manu‐ facturer or if flammable materials (e.g. a utensil rail) are installed above the cooktop, the clearance must be at least 30" (760 mm).
If there is more than one appliance
installed below the ventilation hood,
each with a different safety clear‐
ance, the largest clearance must be
used.
50

Safety clearances to the sides and back of the cooktop

In installing a cooktop there may be an optionally high cabinet or room wall against the rear side and one of the sides (right or left) (see illustrations).
minimum distance between the back of the counter cut-out and the rear edge of the counter: 2" (50 mm)
minimum distance to the right of the counter cut-out to the closest adjacent piece of furniture (for instance, a high cabinet) or a room wall: 2" (50 mm)
minimum distance to the left of the counter cut-out to the closest adjacent piece of furniture (for instance, a high cabinet) or a room wall: 2" (50 mm)

51
Safety clearances
Minimum clearance under‐ neath the cooktop
To ensure proper ventilation of the cooktop, a minimum clearance is re‐ quired between the appliance and an oven, protective base, or drawer.
The minimum clearance from the bot‐ tom of the cooktop to
– the top of the oven must be ⁹/₁₆"
(15 mm).
– the top of the protective base must
be ⁹/₁₆" (15 mm).
– bottom of the drawer must be 3"
(75 mm).

Protective base

Installation of a protective base under the cooktop is allowed but not required.
A gap of 3" (75 mm) at the back is re‐ quired for the power supply cord. For better cooling of the cooktop, we rec‐ ommend a gap of 2" (50 mm) at the front.
52
Safety clearances

Safety distance from the wall covering

If a wall covering is installed, a minimum safety distance must be maintained be‐ tween the countertop cut-out and the covering, since high temperatures can dam‐ age these materials.
If the covering is made of a combustible material (such as wood), the distance be‐ tween the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be a minimum of 2" (50 mm).
For coverings made of non-combustible materials (such as metal, marble, granite, ceramic tiles) the minimum safety distance between the countertop cut-out and the wall covering must be 2" (50 mm) minus the thickness of the covering. For ex‐ ample: thickness of wall covering 2" (50 mm) - ⁹/₁₆" (15 mm) = minimum safety distance 1 ³/₈" (35 mm).

Instructions for installation

Seal between cooktop and counter

In case a disassembly is required,
the appliance must not be perma‐
nently sealed into the countertop
when installed. The sealing strip un‐
der the edge of the appliance pro‐
vides a sufficient seal for the coun‐
tertop.
If the appliance is sealed into posi‐
tion, the countertop or appliance
could be damaged if it needs to be
removed for maintenance or service.

Tiled countertop

The grouting and shaded area under the appliance frame must be flat and even so that the frame will lie evenly and the sealing strip under the edge of the upper part of the appliance can provide an adequate seal against the countertop.

Installation

Preparing the counter

Create the counter cut-out as shown
in the cooktop diagram and in the de‐ tailed drawing. Remember to main‐ tain a minimum safety distance (see "Safety clearances").
Seal any wooden counter surfaces
with a special varnish, silicone rub‐ ber, or resin to help prevent swelling from moisture. The sealant must be temperature resistant.
Ensure that the sealant does not get
on the top surface of the countertop.
The sealing tape guarantees a non­slipping seat of the cooktop in the cut-out. The gap between the frame and counter reduces with 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 addi‐ tional sealing material such as sili‐ con!
If during installation the seal around the frame does not sit flush with the countertop in the corners, the corner radius, maximum 3/16" (4 mm), can be carefully filed down to fit.
Connect the cooktop to the electrical
power supply.
Check that the cooktop works.
57

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mate‐ rial
The cardboard box and packing materi‐ als protect the appliance during ship‐ ping. They have been designed to be biodegradable and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Dan‐ ger of suffocation!

Disposal of your old appliance

Old electrical and electronic appliances often still contain valuable materials. However, they also contain harmful substances that were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment. Handling these materials improperly or disposing of them in your household waste can be harmful to your health and the environment. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with regular house‐ hold waste.
Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.
Please be sure that your old appliance does not pose a danger to children while being stored for disposal.
