6
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service technician.
A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check it for any visible damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of this cooktop can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
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 tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) matches the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance.
Do not connect the cooktop to the mains electrical supply by a multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this cooktop may only be used after it has been built in.
This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).
Never open the casing of the cooktop.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
The cooktop is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a remote control system.
The cooktop must be connected to the electricity supply by a qualified electrician (see "Electrical connection").
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special connection cable type H 05 VV-F (PVC insulated), available from Miele, by a Miele approved service technician or suitably qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard. See "Electrical connection".
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 circuit breaker is switched off, or
–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from the socket. Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains plug to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity supply.
Danger of electric shock!
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, disconnect it from the mains electricity supply and contact Miele.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
If the cooktop is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), ensure that the door is never closed whilst the cooktop is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause subsequent damage to the cooktop, the housing unit and the floor. Do not close the door until the residual heat indicators have gone out.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The cooktop 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.
Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the cooktop unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite, do not attempt to put the flames out with water.
Switch off the cooktop and use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Flames could set the grease filters of a rangehood on fire. Do not flambé under a rangehood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances in a drawer under the cooktop. Cutlery inserts must be heatresistant.
Do not heat an empty pan.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars on the cooktop, as pressure can build up in the containers, causing them to explode.
Do not cover the cooktop, e.g. with a cooktop cover, a cloth or protective foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the cooktop is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
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 cooktop heating up, with the danger of burning. Depending on the material, other items left on the cooktop 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 and do not rely on the pan detector.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
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-held food mixer, near the cooktop, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot come into contact with the hot cooktop. The insulation on the cable 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 ceramic surface is clean before placing pans on it.
Even a light object can cause damage in certain circumstances. Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface.
Hot pans on the display can cause damage to the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the display or on the area around the display.
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 clean them with a suitable ceramic cooktop cleaning agent.
Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do not leave the cooktop unattended whilst it is being used.
Only use pots and pans with smooth bases. Rough bases will scratch the ceramic glass.
Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can cause scuffs and scratches.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Induction heating works extremely quickly. Therefore, the base of the pan could heat up to the temperature at which oil or fat selfignites within a very short time. Do not leave the cooktop 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 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.
To prevent damage to items which are susceptible to electromagnetic fields, e.g. credit cards, digital storage devices, pocket calculators, etc., do not leave them in the immediate vicinity of the cooktop.
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 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 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, extended zone or PowerFlex zone at the same time.
If the pan only partially covers the cooking zone, the handle could become very hot.
Ensure that you always place the pan in the middle of the cooking zone.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
If the cooktop is built in over a pyrolytic oven, the cooktop should not be used whilst the pyrolytic 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 packing
material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally 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 valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.
