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.
17
Touch display
On/Off
Multi
The cooktop is fitted with a touch display. All settings are selected by touching the display.
Take care to keep the touch display clean and do not place anything on top of it.

24
A fault message will appear in the display. The cooktop can be used again when the fault message has gone out.
The overheating mechanism can be triggered by:
heating up an empty pan.
fat or oil being heated up on a high power level.
insufficient ventilation to the underside of the appliance.
Tips on saving energy
Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
uncovered covered
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:
washing-up liquid,
– cleaning agents containing soda, alkalines, ammonia,
acids or chlorides,
– cleaning agents containing descaling agents,
– stain or rust removers,
– 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. Allow the appliance to cool down and then clean as described above.

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 safety distances (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.
