Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
For people fitted with a heart pacemaker:
~
Please note that the area immediately surrounding the cooktop 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 cooktop.
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.
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 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.
Do not store any metal items or utensils in a drawer under the
~
cooktop as they can become hot if the induction cooktop is used
intensively for a long time.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
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 from the cooktop 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 cooktop cleaning agent.
Do not heat up unopened tins of food on the cooktop, as
~
pressure will build up in the tin, causing it to explode.
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,
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
appliance is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still
present.
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.
Do not flambé under a rangehood. The flames could set the
~
rangehood on fire.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Induction heating works extremely quickly, 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.
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
heat-resistant.
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 cooktop in use or whilst there is any residual heat present.
Do not heat an empty pan.
~
Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Do not use the
~
Booster function to heat oil or fat.
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 cooktop 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.
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.
Do not place hot items or pans on the touch display as this could
~
cause damage to the electronics underneath.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface. Even a light object
~
could cause damage in certain circumstances.
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 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 a steam cleaning appliance to clean this cooktop. The
~
steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
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).
13
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 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. 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 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. If
handled or disposed of incorrectly they
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
Please do not dispose of your
appliance with household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your Chartered Agent
for advice.
14
Ensure that it presents no danger to
children while being stored for
disposal.
The induction principle
Induction coils are located underneath the ceramic surface.
These coils create a magnetic field when the cooktop is
switched on and a pan is placed on the surface. This
magnetic field works on the base of the pan and heats it up.
The ceramic surface heats up indirectly by the heat given off
by the pan.
Induction heat only works when a ferromagnetic pan is
placed on the ceramic surface (see "Pans"). The induction
cooking zone automatically recognises the size of the pan
Induction heat will not work
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 cooktop when it is switched on.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the ceramic
surface, the cooktop will switch off automatically after a few
minutes.
Danger of burning.
Do not use the cooktop as a resting place for metal items
(e.g. cutlery). When the appliance is switched on either
deliberately or by mistake, or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of the metal items heating up,
with the danger of burning.
Switch the cooktop off after use.
Induction
15
Induction
Noises
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 levels, it might buzz. This will
–
decrease or cease altogether when the power level 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 the Booster function is set when
–
using several pans which have bases made of layers of
different materials at the same time.
– You might hear a clicking sound from the electronic
switches, especially on lower power levels.
– You might hear a whirring sound when the cooling fan
switches on. It switches on to protect the electronics when
the cooktop is being used intensively. The fan may
continue to run after the appliance has been switched off.
16
Pans
Induction
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.
Pots must have minimum base diameter of 10.0 cm and pans
a minimum base diameter of 14.5 cm.
Often the maximum diameter quoted by manufacturers refers
to the diameter of the top rim of the pot or pan. The diameter
of the base (generally smaller) is more important.

–
insufficient ventilation to the underside of the appliance.
Tips on saving energy
Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
–
uncoveredcovered
Select a smaller pan when cooking small quantities. A
–
smaller pan uses less energy than a larger pan with very
little in it.
– Cook with as little water as possible.
– Once food has come to the boil or the oil in the pan is hot
enough for frying, reduce the heat to a lower setting.
– Cooking times are greatly reduced when using a pressure
cooker.
25
Cleaning and care
Danger of injury.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this
appliance. The steam could reach electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
The appliance should be cleaned after each use. Let it cool
down to room temperature before cleaning.
To avoid water marks and limescale deposits, use a soft cloth
to dry the appliance after cleaning.
To avoid damaging the surface of your appliance, do not
use:
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners and cream
cleaners,
26
– solvent-based cleaning agents,
–
dishwasher cleaner,
–
grill and oven cleaners,
–
glass cleaning agents,
–
hard, abrasive brushes or sponges, e.g. pot scourers, or
sponges which have been previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents,
–
melamine eraser blocks,
–
sharp, pointed objects which could damage the seal
between the ceramic surface and the surrounding frame,
and between the frame and the worktop.
Cleaning and care
Do not use washing-up liquid to clean the ceramic surface.
Washing-up liquid will not remove all soiling and deposits.
It will form an invisible coating which will cause permanent
discolouration of the ceramic surface.
Clean the cooktop regularly with a suitable ceramic
cooktop cleaning agent.
Wipe off all coarse soiling using a damp cloth. Stubborn
soiling may need to be removed with a shielded scraper
blade.
Then clean the cooktop with the Original Miele ceramic and
stainless steel cooktop cleaner (see "Optional accessories")
applied with kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not apply
cleaner whilst the appliance is still hot, as this could result in
marking. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Finally wipe the cooktop with a damp cloth, then dry with a
soft, dry cloth. 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.
Spots caused by limescale, water and aluminium residues
(spots with a metallic appearance) can be removed using the
Original Miele ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner.
Danger of burning.
Protect your hands with oven gloves before using a
shielded scraper blade to remove sugar, plastic or
aluminium residues from the hot cooktop.
Should any sugar, plastic or aluminium foil spill or fall onto
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 cooktop immediately whilst they
are still hot, using a shielded scraper blade.

and any niche cladding to protect it from heat damage.
If the niche cladding is made from a combustible material (e. g. wood) a
minimum safety distance e of 50 mm must be maintained between the cooktop
and the cladding.
If the niche cladding is made from a non-combustible material (e. g. metal,
natural stone, ceramic tiles) a minimum safety distance e of 50 mm less the
thickness of the cladding must be maintained between the cooktop and the
cladding.
Example: 15 mm niche cladding
50 mm - 15 mm = minimum safety distance of 35 mm

Installation notes
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 sealant between the
cooktop and the worktop. This could
result in damage to the cooktop or
the worktop if the cooktop ever
needs to be removed for servicing.
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
of 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
The exact positions of the spring
clamps are shown in the building-in
dimensions for the cooktop.
Make the worktop cut-out according
^
to the dimensions given in the
building-in diagram. Remember to
maintain the minimum safetydistances (see "Safety instructions
for installation").
Worktops made of wood
Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
^
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
^ Place the spring clamps (supplied)
on the upper edge of the cut-out.
Granite and marble worktops
You will require double-sided tape
and silicone (not supplied).
^ Fix the spring clamps in place using
double-sided tape c.
The spring clamps must rest on the
top edge of the cut-out.
^
Secure the spring clamps a with the
3.5 x 25 mm wood screws supplied.
38
^
Apply silicone to the side edges and
the lower edge of the spring clamps.
Installation
Seal
Peel the protective foil from the seal
supplied and stick the seal around the
edge of the worktop cutout.
Installing the cooktop
Feed the cooktop connection cable
^
down through the cut-out.
Position the cooktop on the spring
^
clamps.
Align the cooktop so that it is in the
^
middle of the cut-out.
Using both hands, press down
^
evenly on the sides of the cooktop
until it clicks into position. When
doing this, make sure that the seal
under the cooktop sits flush with the
worktop on all sides. This is important
to ensure an effective seal all round.
Do not use sealant (e.g. silicone).
If the corners of the frame are not
flush with the worktop surface, the
corner radius (ß R4) can be carefully
scribed to fit.
^ Connect the cooktop to the mains.
^ Check that the cooktop works.
The cooktop can now only be
removed with a special tool.
