Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause

considerable danger to users. Installation, maintenance and repair work must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check the appliance

for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if

correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is observed and regularly tested, and where there is any doubt, the installation should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the

connection data (frequency and voltage) on the data plate corresponds to the household supply, before connecting the appliance to the mains supply. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by an

extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has

been built in.

This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.

on a ship).

Do not open the casing of the appliance.

Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

Warning and Safety instructions

While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be

undertaken by a service technician authorised by Miele. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance

when original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts.

The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a

remote control system.

The hob must be connected to the electrical supply by a qualified

electrician. If the connection cable is faulty, it must be replaced with a special connection cable installed by a qualified electrician. See "Electrical connection".

The appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity

supply during installation, maintenance and repair work. Ensure that power is not supplied to the appliance until after it has been installed or until any maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

If the hob is fitted with a communication module, in addition to

disconnecting the hob, this module must also be disconnected from the mains electricity during installation and maintenance of the hob as well as while any repair work is being carried out.

Danger of electric shock.

Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply.

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 which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the

appliance unattended when cooking with oil or fat. If oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to put out the flames with water. Disconnect the appliance from the mains and use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.

Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do

not flambé under a cooker 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-resistant.

Do not heat an empty pan.

Do not heat up unopened tins of food on the hob, as pressure will

build up in the tin, causing it to explode.

Do not cover the hob, e.g. with a hob cover, a cloth or protective

foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the appliance is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.

When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food

blender, near the appliance, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot come into contact with the hot appliance. The insulation on the cable could become damaged.

If the appliance is installed behind a kitchen furniture door, it may

only be used with the furniture door open. Do not close the door whilst the hob in use or whilst there is any residual heat present.

The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while

after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.

Warning and Safety instructions

You could burn yourself on the hot hob. 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 the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by

mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of any metal items left on the hob heating up, with the danger of burning. Depending on the material, other items left on the hob could also melt or catch fire. Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be difficult to dislodge. Do not use the appliance as a resting place. Switch the cooking zones off after use.

Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or

aluminium foil to get onto the cooking zones when they are hot, as they can damage the ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, switch off the appliance and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues whilst still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Wear oven gloves. Allow the cooking zones to cool down and then clean them with a suitable ceramic hob cleaning agent.

Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do

not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used.

Do not use pots or pans on the hob with bases with pronounced

edges or ridges. These could scratch or scour the ceramic glass surface permanently. Only use pots and pans with smooth bases.

Lift pans into position on the hob. Sliding them into place can

cause scuffs and scratches.

Warning and Safety instructions

Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables)

can cause scratches if they get under pan bases. Make sure that the ceramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.

Even a light object could cause damage in certain

circumstances. Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.

Do not place hot pans on the sensors and display as this could

cause damage to the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the area around the display.

Induction heating works extremely quickly and so the base of the

pan could heat up to the temperature at which oil or fat self-ignites within a very short time. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used.

Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Do not use the

Booster function to heat oil or fat.

For people fitted with a heart pacemaker:

Please note that the area immediately surrounding the hob is electromagnetically charged. It is unlikely to affect a pacemaker. However, if in any doubt, consult the manufacturer of the pacemaker or your doctor.

To prevent damage to items which are susceptible to magnetic

fields, e.g. credit cards, digital storage devices, pocket calculators, etc, do not leave them in the immediate vicinity of the hob.

Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the hob 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 hob.

Warning and Safety instructions

This hob is fitted with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly

underneath the hob, 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 hob. 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, extended zone or

PowerFlex zone at the same time.

Cleaning and care

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.

The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

If the hob is built in over a pyrolitic oven or cooker, the hob

should not be used whilst the pyrolitic process is being carried out, as this could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the hob (see relevant section).

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. 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 reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also 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. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection/recycling

centre or contact your dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

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, data plate, guarantee" 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 hobs with bevelled glass edges, a small gap may be visible between the hob 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 induction coils may also give off a slight smell for the first few hours of operation. This smell will be less noticeable with each subsequent use before dissipating completely.

The smell and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty connection or appliance and they are not hazardous to health.

Please note that the heating up time on induction hobs is very much shorter than on conventional hobs.
