Warning and Safety instructions
This cooktop complies with all relevant local and national safety
requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to personal
injury and damage to property.
Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before
using the cooktop. They contain important information on safety,
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance. This prevents
both personal injury and damage to the cooktop.
In accordance with standard IEC 60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in
“Installation”, as well as in the “Warning and Safety instructions”.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by noncompliance with these instructions.

This cooktop is not suitable for outdoor use.
It is intended only to cook food and keep it warm. Any other use is
not supported by Miele and could be dangerous.
This cooktop is not intended for use by people (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
and instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their
safety. They may only use the cooktop unsupervised if they have
been shown how to use it in a safe way. They must be able to
recognise and understand the potential dangers of improper use.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
Safety with children
Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
Older children may only use the appliance if its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely.
They must be aware of the potential dangers caused by incorrect
operation.
Cleaning may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the cooktop and do not
let them play with it.
The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while
after being switched off. Keep children well away from the cooktop
until it has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.
Danger of burning! Do not store anything which might arouse a
child's interest in storage areas above or behind the cooktop.
Otherwise children could be tempted to climb onto the cooktop with
the risk of burning themselves.
Danger of burning and scalding! Turn the handles of pots and
pans on the cooktop to the side or the rear so that children cannot
pull them down and burn themselves.
Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children may become
entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it

away from children.
Activate the system lock to ensure that children cannot switch on
the cooktop inadvertently.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs (including
removal of any cover) can cause considerable danger for the user.
Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician.
Damage to the cooktop can compromise your safety. Check the
appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not use the cooktop if it is
damaged.
Reliable and safe operation of this cooktop can only be assured if
it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The cooktop must not be connected to the inverter of an
autonomous power supply, e.g. a solar power system. When the
cooktop is switched on, power surges could result in a safety
switch-off. This may damage the electronic unit.
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 electricity 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 electricity 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).
8
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele authorised 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 mains connection cable by a qualified and competent
electrician in order to avoid a hazard (see “Installation - 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! If the ceramic surface is faulty, cracked,
chipped or damaged in any way, do not use the cooktop and switch
it off immediately. Disconnect the cooktop from the electricity
supply. Contact Miele.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
If the cooktop is installed behind a furniture door, do not close the
door while the cooktop is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door. This can result in damage to the cooktop,
the housing unit and the floor. Do not close the door until the
appliance has cooled down and the residual heat indicators have
gone out.
10
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.
The cooking process has to be supervised. A short term cooking
process has to be supervised continuously.
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.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
When the cooktop is switched on, either deliberately or by
mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is a risk of
metal items placed on the cooktop heating up. Depending on the
material, other items left on the appliance could also melt or catch
fire. Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be
difficult to dislodge. Do not use the cooktop as a resting place for
anything else. Switch the cooktop off after use and do not rely on the
pan detector.
You could burn yourself on the hot cooktop. Protect your hands
with heat-resistant pot holders or oven 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 items placed down on the touch display can damage the
electronics underneath. Never place hot pans in the area of the
touch display.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooktop 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
cooktop cleaning agent.
Acidic food such as vinegar, jams or lemon juice can cause
discolouration to the ceramic surface. Remove acidic residues
immediately.
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.
Because induction heating works extremely quickly, 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.
Do not use the Booster to heat fats and oils. Use the Manual1–9
function to heat fats and oils for max. 1minute.
For people fitted with a heart pacemaker: please note that the
area immediately surrounding the cooktop is electromagnetically
charged when it is switched on. It is very unlikely to affect a
pacemaker. However, if in any doubt, consult the manufacturer of
the pacemaker or your doctor.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
The 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
cooktop 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 casing by
the fan and damage the fan or impair cooling.
If an induction adapter plate is used for cookware, the induction
generator may be damaged or even destroyed. Do not use induction
adapter plates.
14
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 “Safety features - Overheating protection”).
15
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.

Initial cooking
The metal components have a
protective coating which may give off a
slight smell when heated up for the first
time. The induction coils may also give
off a slight smell for the first few hours
of operation. This smell will be less
noticeable with each subsequent use
before dissipating completely.
The smell and any vapours given off do
not indicate a faulty connection or
appliance and they are not hazardous
to health.
Please note that the heating up time
on induction cooktops is significantly
shorter than on conventional
cooktops.
