13
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)
matches 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
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer 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and the plug is withdrawn from the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.
If the cooktop has been fitted with a
~
communication module, it must be
disconnected from the mains during
installation, maintenance and repairs of
the cooktop.
While the appliance is under
~
warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the warranty is 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.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
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 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. Danger of electric shock.
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.
Correct use
For people fitted with a heart
~
pacemaker:
Please note that the area immediately
surrounding the cooktop is
electromagnetically charged, and that it
is very 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, diskettes, pocket
calculators etc, do not leave them in the
immediate vicinity of the cooktop.
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, despite this, 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.
15
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 use the appliance as a
~
resting place for anything else.
Take particular care never to place
cutlery or other metal objects on the
appliance. 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 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.
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.
Never heat an empty pan unless the
~
manufacturer of the pan expressly
states that you can do so. Because
induction heating works extremely
quickly, the base of the pan could heat
up to the temperature at which oil or fat
self-ignites within a very short time.
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. This could damage
the electronic unit underneath.
Do not drop anything on the ceramic
~
surface. Even a light object could
cause damage in certain
circumstances.
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. Should this 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.
If residues are allowed to cool before
being removed, the ceramic surface
will be susceptible to pitting or even
cracking.
Once the residues have been removed,
allow the appliance to cool down, and
then clean with a suitable proprietary
ceramic cooktop cleaner.
16
Warning and Safety instructions
When using an electric socket near
~
the cooktop, care should be taken that
the cable of the electrical appliance
does not come into contact with a hot
cooking zone. The insulation on the
cable could become damaged, giving
rise to an electric shock hazard.
This appliance is fitted 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 for 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.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other
~
inflammable substances must not be
stored in a drawer under the cooktop.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Do not use two pans on one cooking
~
or casserole zone at the same time.
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.
If the cooktop is built-in over a
~
pyrolitic oven, the cooktop should not
be used whilst the pyrolitic process is
being carried out as this could trigger
the overheating protection mechanism
on the cooktop (see relevant section).
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
Metal utensils stored in a drawer
~
under the cooktop can become hot if
the induction cooktop is used
intensively for a long time.
Always ensure that food is
~
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Some
foods may contain micro-organisms
which are only destroyed by thorough
cooking at a sufficiently high
temperature for long enough.
Therefore, when cooking or reheating
food such as poultry, it is particularly
important that the food is completely
cooked through. If in doubt, select a
longer cooking or reheating time.
17
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 can normally be recycled.
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.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
Disposal of your old appliance
or machine
Electrical and electronic appliances /
machines 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 or machine. Therefore,
please do not dispose of your old
machine or appliance with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
18
It should be unplugged or
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply by a competent person.
The plug must be rendered useless
and the cable cut off directly behind the
appliance or the machine to prevent
misuse.
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.
Do not use washing up liquid to clean the ceramic surface
as it can leave a blue sheen which may be difficult to
remove.
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.
When the appliance is used for the first time, it may give off a
slight smell. The smell and any vapours will dissipate after a
short time.
Before using 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.
Please note that the heating-up time of induction cooktops
is much shorter than that of conventional cooktops.
19
Induction
How the appliance works
An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When
a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic
field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats
it up. The cooking 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 "Pans").
Induction automatically recognises the size of the pan, i.e.
heat is only generated in the area covered by the base of the
pan.
The cooking zone will not work:
– if it is switched on without a pan in place, or if the pan is
unsuitable (non-magnetic base).
– if the diameter of the base of the pan is too small.
– if the pan is taken off the cooking zone when it is switched
on.
In this case the numbers 1 to 9 will flash on the relevant
control panel.
20
If a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone within 3
minutes, the numbers will light up constantly and you can
continue as normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the cooking zone,
the cooking zone and the cooktop will switch off automatically
after 3 minutes.
Take particular care never to place cutlery or other metal
objects on the cooktop. When the appliance is switched
on either deliberately or by mistake, or when there is
residual heat present, there is the risk of metal items
heating up with the danger of burning.
Switch the cooking zones off after use.
Noises
Induction
When using an induction cooking zone, the following noises
can occur in the pan, depending on what it is made of and
how it has been constructed:
On the higher power settings, it might buzz. This will
–
decrease or cease altogether when the power setting is
reduced.
If the pan base is made of layers of different materials (e.g.
–
in a sandwiched base), it might emit a cracking sound.
Whistling might occur if linked zones (see "Booster
–
function") are being used at the same time, and the pans
also have bases made of layers of different materials.
– You might hear a clicking sound from the electronic
switches, especially on lower settings.
The appliance has a cooling fan to help extend the life of the
electronics. When the cooktop is being used intensively, this
will come on and you will hear a whirring sound. The fan may
continue to run after the appliance has been switched off.
21
Induction
Pans
Suitable pans include:
stainless steel pans with a magnetic base
–
enamelled steel pans
–
cast iron pans
–
Unsuitable pans:
stainless steel pans without a magnetic base
–
aluminium and copper pans
–
glass, ceramic or earthenware pots and pans
–
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.
Please be aware that the properties of the pan base can
affect the eveness with which food heats up in the pan.
To make optimum use of the cooking zones, choose pans
with diameters larger than the innermost markings but smaller
than the outermost markings. If the diameter of the pan is
smaller than the innermost marking, the induction heating will
not work. The zone will behave as if it had no pan on it.
22
Please note that the maximum diameter quoted by
manufacturers often refers to the diameter of the top rim of
the pot or pan. The diameter of the base (generally smaller) is
more important.
Place pans in the centre of the cooking zone.
If a pan's base sits only partly on the cooking zone,
handles can become very hot.
Operation
Use
This ceramic cooktop is equipped with electronic sensor
switches which react to finger contact.
When the cooktop is switched off, you can only see the
symbols for the ON/OFF button of the cooking zones and the
Safety lock in the display.
If the cooktop is switched on, all other sensors will light up. "0"
will light up at brightness setting 2 and 1-9 at brightness
setting 1.
If a power setting is selected, the numbers will light up from 0
up to and including the selected power setting at brightness
setting 2.
If the booster or keeping warm funtion has been selected, the
relevant sensor will light up at brightness setting 2.
To operate a cooking zone, touch the relevant sensor. Each
time you touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds.
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.

Use
Booster function
The cooking zones are equipped with a Single Booster or a
TwinBooster (see "Description of the appliance").
When activated, the power is boosted for 10 minutes so that
large quantities can be heated quickly, e.g. when boiling
water for cooking pasta. If it is activated, the cooking zones
will operate with extra power for a period of 15 minutes.
The Booster function can only be used on two cooking zones
at the same time, one on the left and one on the right.

The extra boost of energy is only available by taking a
proportion of energy away from another cooking zone. For
this reason, the cooking zones are networked in pairs as
shown.
When the Single Booster/TwinBooster setting 1 is switched
on, the following happens to the connected cooking zones:
–
if Auto heat-up is activated, it will be deactivated.
–
If the power setting 9 is set on the connected cooking
zone, the setting will be reduced.
If the TwinBooster setting 2 is switched on, the connected
cooking zone will be switched off.
During the booster time, the B sensor lights up along with all
other numbers on the control panel at brightness setting 2.

Keeping warm function
Each cooking zone has a keeping warm function.
If the keeping warm function has been activated, the cooking
zone will switch off automatically after a maximum of 2 hours.
This function is for keeping food that has just been cooked
warm, i.e. food that is still hot. It is not for reheating food
that has gone cold.
To switch on/off the keeping warm function
Briefly touch the 2 sensor of the required cooking zone.
^
Useful tips
Only use pots and pans for keeping food warm. Cover pots
and pans with a lid.
You do not have to stir food while it is being kept warm.
Nutrients are lost when food is cooked, and continue to
diminish when food is kept warm. The longer food is kept
warm for, the greater the loss of nutrients. Try to ensure that
food is kept warm for as short a time as possible.

distances given on the following pages.
All dimensions in this instruction booklet
are given in mm.
This appliance must be installed
,
and connected to services in
accordance with local and national
safety and building regulations.

Safety clearances
Safety distance above the appliance
A minimum safety distance must be
maintained between the appliance and
the rangehood above it. See the
rangehood manufacturer’s operating
and installation instructions for details.
If the manufacturer’s instructions are
not available for the rangehood, a
minimum safety distance of at least
760 mm must be maintained. For any
flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails,
wall units etc., a minimum distance of at
least 760 mm must be maintained
between them and the appliance
below.
When two or more appliances are
installed together below a
rangehood, e.g. a gas wok and an
induction cooktop, which have
different safety distances given in
the installation instructions, you
should select the greater distance of
the two.
60
Side / rear clearances to the cooktop
Ideally the cooktop should be installed
with plenty of space on either side.
There may be a wall at the rear and a
tall unit or wall at one side. On the other
side, however, no unit or divider should
stand higher than the cooktop (see
illustrations).

Safety clearances
Before installing the appliance, check
that the location provides the required
clearances from combustible material
and, if necessary, provide protection to
adjacent surfaces as required by
regulations.
The minimum side clearance from a
cooktop to a combustible surface* shall
be a 300 mm horizontal distance from
the periphery of any electric burner.
The minimum rear clearance from a
cooktop to a
combustible surface* shall be a
–
200 mm horizontal distance from the
periphery of any electric burner.
– non-combustible surface or
splashback shall be a 50 mm
horizontal distance from the rear
edge of the cooktop.
If the clearance between the periphery
of any electric burner and
- the side wall is less than 300 mm,
- the rear wall is less than 200 mm,
the walls must be protected with a
non-combustible material.
The protection must be extended a
minimum distance of 150 mm above
the burner. The shown area indicates
the protected surface, which may be
ceramic tiles or other approved
material.
62
* Combustible surface:
The surface of a material that is
capable of catching fire and
burning at temperatures exceeding
50 K above ambient.
Safety clearances
Safety distances underneath the
cooktop
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the
cooktop, a certain gap must be left
between the underside of the cooktop
and any oven, interim shelf or drawer.
The minimum gap between the
underside of the cooktop and
the top of an oven is 15 mm.
–
the top of an interim shelf is 15 mm.
–
the base of a drawer must be
–
75 mm.
Interim shelf
It is not necessary to install an interim
shelf underneath the cooktop.
A gap of 10 mm is needed at the back
for laying the mains connection cable.
For better cooktop ventilation, however,
a gap of 20 mm is recommended.
63
Safety clearances
Cooktops with frames and
bevelled edges
Seal between the cooktop and the
worktop
The sealing strip under the edge of the
top part of the appliance provides a
sufficient seal for the worktop.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone) between the
appliance and the worktop.
This could cause difficulties if the
appliance ever needs to be taken
out for servicing and possibly result
in damage to the cooktop or the
worktop.
Tiled worktop
Grout lines a and the hatched area
underneath the cooktop frame must be
smooth and even. If they are not, the
cooktop will not sit flush with the
worktop and the sealing strip
underneath the cooktop will not provide
a good seal between the cooktop and
the worktop.
Tiled worktops must be a minimum
5 mm thick to ensure the surface
temperatures of the combustible
surfaces underneath the tiles do not
exceed 50 K above ambient.

Installation
Preparing the worktop
Make the worktop cut-out for one or
^
more appliances as applicable.
Remember to maintain a minimum
safety distance (see "Safety
instructions for installation").
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
^
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure these materials do not
come into contact with the surface of
the worktop.
This cooktop has a seal underneath it
to keep the cooktop securely in
position. Clamps are not required.
Any gap between the frame and
worktop will reduce with time.
Connecting the mains connection
cable to the appliance
Installing the cooktop
Feed the mains connection cable
^
down through the cut-out.
Place the cooktop centrally in the
^
cut-out. When doing this, make sure
that the seal of the appliance sits
flush with the worktop on all sides.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone).
If, during installation, you find that the
seals on the corners are not flush
with the worktop, the corner radii
ß R4, can be carefully scribed to fit.
^ Connect the cooktop to the mains.
^ Check that the cooktop works.
The mains connection cable must
be connected by a suitably qualified
and competent electrician in
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations.
^
Connect the mains connection to the
appliance according to the
connection diagram (see "Electrical
connection").
