Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The hob 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.
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the hob
when it is in use could catch fire.
Do not use the hob to heat up the room.
Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the hob
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite do not
attempt to put the flames out with water.
Disconnect the hob from the mains and use a suitable fire blanket,
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Do not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used. It should
be continually monitored whilst boiling and flash frying.
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 hob. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
Do not heat an empty pan.
Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the hob, as pressure can build up in the container, 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 hob is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
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 using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the hob, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot
come into contact with the hot hob. 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.
Placing hot pans on the sensors and indicators could damage the
electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans on the sensors or
indicators.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the hob when it is 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 suitable for
use on glass. Wear oven gloves when doing this. Allow the ceramic
surface to cool down and then clean it with a suitable ceramic hob
cleaning agent.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the hob 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 hob. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.
Plastic and aluminium foil containers melt at high temperatures.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers on the hob.
The hob frame or hob edges (on hobs with bevelled edges) and
the controls can become hot due to the influence of the following
factors: operating duration, high power level(s), large pans and the
number of cooking zones being used.
Pots and pans made of aluminium or with an aluminium base can
leave a metallic sheen on the hob. This can be removed with the
ceramic and stainless steel hob cleaner (see “Cleaning and care”).
If spills remain on the hob for any length of time they can burn on
and in certain circumstances become impossible to remove.
Remove any soiling as quickly as possible and ensure that pan
bases are clean, dry and free of grease.
Do not use the ceramic surface for preparing food on. Always use
suitable pots and pans.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this hob.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the
discontinuation of your hob.
12
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 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, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the
appliance being disposed of. Please
ensure that your old appliance poses no
risk to children while being stored prior
to 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” section of
this booklet.
Remove any protective wrapping and
stickers.
Cleaning the hob for the first time
Before using for the first time, clean
the hob with a damp cloth only and
then wipe dry.
Switching on the hob for the first time
The metal components have a
protective coating which when heated
for the first time will give off a slight
smell and possibly some vapours.
The smell and any vapours given off do
not indicate a faulty connection or
appliance and they are not hazardous
to health.
19
How the cooking zones work
Single circle cooking zones have one
heating element, whilst double circle
cooking zones and extended zones
have two. Depending on the model, the
heating elements may be separated by
an insulating ring.
Each cooking zone has overheating
protection (a temperature limiter), which
stops the ceramic surface from
becoming too hot (see “Overheating
protection”).
When a power level is selected, heating
is activated and the glowing heater
element can be seen through the
ceramic surface. The heater rating of
the cooking zones depends on the
power level selected, and is
electronically regulated. The “timing” of
the cooking zone is controlled by
switching the element on and off.

Pans
The best pots and pans are metal
ones with a thick base which is very
slightly concave when cold. When
heated, the base flattens to rest evenly
on the hob, optimising the conduction
of the heat.
cold hot
Glass, ceramic, or stoneware is less
suitable. These materials do not
conduct the heat well.
Cutlery made of synthetic material, and
aluminum foil are not suitable. These
melt at high temperatures.
Pots and pans made of aluminium or
with an aluminium base can leave a
metallic sheen on the hob. This can be
removed with the ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner (see “Cleaning and
care”).
- 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.
Please be aware that the properties of
the pan base can affect the evenness
with which the food heats up (e.g. when
making pancakes).
- To make optimum use of the cooking
zones, choose pans with a suitable
base diameter (see chapter “Cooking
zones”).
- Use only pots and pans with smooth
bases. Rough bases can scratch the
ceramic glass.
- Always lift the pans to move them.
This will help prevent scratching.
21
Tips on saving energy
- Check that the diameter of the pan
base is wide enough for the cooking
zone so that heat is not lost
unnecessarily.
- Use a pan lid whenever possible to
minimize heat loss.
- Select a smaller pan when cooking
small quantities. A small pan on a
small cooking zone uses less energy
than a large, partially filled pan on a
large cooking zone.
- 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.
- When cooking for a long time, switch
the cooking zone off about 5 to
10minutes before the end of the
cooking time. In this way, use is
made of the residual heat.
- Use a pressure cooker to reduce
cooking times.
22
Setting range
The hob is programmed with 9power levels at the factory. If you wish to fine-tune
a setting, you can extend the power level range to 17power levels (see

automatically.
The overheating protection may be
activated under the following
circumstances:
- There is no pan on the cooking zone.
- The pan being used is empty.
- The base of a pan not sitting evenly
on the cooking zone.
- The pan is not conducting heat
properly.
You can tell that the overheating
protection has activated because the
heating element switches on and off
even when the highest power level is
selected.

- melamine eraser blocks
41
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the ceramic surface
Risk of damage by pointed
objects.
The seal between the hob and the
worktop could suffer damage.
The seal between the ceramic
surface and the frame could suffer
damage.
Do not use pointed objects for
cleaning.
Not all soiling and residues can be
removed using a solution of
washing-up liquid. An invisible film
can develop that can lead to
discolouration of the glass ceramic
surface. This discolouration cannot
be removed.
Clean the ceramic surface regularly
with a proprietary ceramic glass
cleaning agent.
Remove any coarse soiling with a
damp cloth and more stubborn
soiling with a shielded scraper blade
suitable for use on glass.
Then clean the ceramic glass surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner (see “optional
accessories”) or with a proprietary
ceramic glass cleaner applied with
kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not
apply the cleaner while the hob is still
hot, as this can result in marking.
Please follow the cleaning agent
manufacturer's instructions.
Residues can burn onto the hob the
next time it is used and cause damage
to the glass 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 Miele's ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner.
Risk of burning due to hot
cooking zones.
The cooking zones are hot during
use.
Wear oven gloves when removing
residues of sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil from a hot ceramic
surface with a shielded scraper
blade.
Should any sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil spill or fall onto the
hot ceramic surface while it is in use,
switch off the cooking zone.
Then carefully scrape off these
residues immediately whilst they are
still hot, using a scraper blade
suitable for use on glass.
Afterwards, clean the ceramic surface
in its cooled state, as described
above.
Finally wipe the glass ceramic surface
with a damp cloth and polish with a
soft, dry cloth.

Problem solving guide
Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily
remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be
needed.
The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault,
and to correct it.
Problem Cause and remedy

few seconds.
flashes in the timer
display and the hob
switches off automatically.
There is no power to the hob.
Check whether the mains fuse has tripped.
Contact an electrician or Miele Service (for the
minimum fuse rating, see data plate).
There may be a technical fault.
Disconnect the appliance from the mains
electricity supply for approx. 1 minute by
– tripping the relevant mains fuse or screwing the
fuse out completely, or
– switching off at the residual current device.
If, after resetting the trip switch in the mains fuse
box or the residual current current device, the
appliance will still not turn on, contact a qualified
electrician or Miele Service.
The metal components have a protective coating
which when heated for the first time will give off a
slight smell and possibly some vapours. The smell
and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty
connection or appliance and they are not harmful to
health.
The system lock or safety lock is activated.
Deactivate the system lock or safety lock (see
“System lock / Safety lock”).
One or more of the sensor controls are covered, e.g.
by finger contact, food boiling over or an object.
Clean off any dirt and/or remove the object (see
“Safety switch-off”).

Installation notes
Surface-mounted installation
Seal between the hob and the worktop
Damage caused by incorrect
installation.
Using sealant under the hob could
result in damage to the hob and the
worktop if the hob ever needs to be
removed for servicing.
Do not use sealant between the hob
and the worktop.
The sealing strip under the edge of
the hob provides a sufficient seal for
the worktop.
Tiled worktops
Grout lines and the hatched area
underneath the hob frame must be
smooth and even. If they are not the
hob will not sit flush with the worktop
and the sealing strip underneath the
hob will not provide a good seal
between the hob and the worktop.
Sealing strip
Dismantling the hob for service
purposes may damage the sealing
strip underneath the edge of the hob.
Always replace the sealing strip
before reinstalling the hob.
52
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Flush-fit installation
Flush-fit installation is only possible in
natural stone (granite, marble), solid
wood and tiled worktops. Certain
models are suitable for building into
glass worktops – please see the
relevant label on the hob. When using
a worktop made from any other
material, please check first with the
worktop manufacturer that it is
suitable for installing a flush-fit hob.
The internal width of the base unit
underneath the appliance must be at
least as wide as the inner worktop cutout (see “Installation – Building-in
dimensions – flush fit”), so that the
hob is easily accessible from
underneath after installation and the
bottom half of the casing can be
removed for maintenance. If the
underside of the hob is not freely
accessible after installation, any
sealant used to plug the gaps around
the appliance must be removed to
enable the hob to be lifted out of the
cut-out should this be necessary.
Natural stone worktops
The hob is set directly in the cut-out.
Solid wood worktops, tiled worktops,
glass worktops
The hob is secured inside the cut-out
with wooden battens. The battens must
be provided on site, and are not
supplied with the appliance.

Preparing the worktop
Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see “Installation –
Safety distances”).
Wooden worktops
Seal any cut surfaces on wooden
worktops with a special varnish,
silicone sealant or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
The seal under the appliance ensures
that the hob will sit securely in the cutout without slipping. Any gap between
the appliance frame and worktop will
become smaller over time.
Secure the spring clamps
The exact positioning of the spring
clamps is shown in the individual hob
diagrams.
Wooden worktops
Position the spring clamps on the
top edge of the cut-out as shown in
the hob illustration.
Fasten the spring clamps using the
3.5x25mm wood screws supplied
with the appliance.
57
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Natural stone worktops
You will need heavy duty double-sided
adhesive tape (not included with the
hob) to fasten the spring clamps.
Attach the adhesive tape along the
top edge of the cut-out in the
positions shown in the hob
illustration.
Position the spring clamps on the top
edge of the cut-out and press them
firmly into place.
Install the hob
Feed the mains connection cable for
the hob down through the worktop
cut-out.
Position the hob in the worktop cut-
out.
Using both hands, press down evenly
on the sides of the hob until it clicks
into position. When doing this make
sure that the seal of the appliance sits
flush with the worktop on all sides.
This is important to ensure an
effective seal all round.
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner
radius (≤R4) can be carefully scribed
to suit.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone) on the hob.
Connect the hob to the mains.
Check that the hob works.
Coat the side edges and the lower
edges of the spring clamps with
silicone.
