Warning and Safety Instructions

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning:
When using your cooktop, follow basic safety precautions including the following:
Read all instructions before using the cooktop.
Use the cooktop only for its in­tended purpose.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a quali-
fied technician or electrician.
Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by removing the fuse
or tripping the circuit breaker.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective ground­ing system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement is met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by the lack or inadequacy of an effective grounding system.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Never use the cooktop to warm or
heat the room.
Do not allow children to operate or play with or near the unit.
Store all toys away from the unit to prevent injury to curious or playful
children.
Please remember that, in use, the burners will become hot. Ensure
that children do not touch them.
Do not store items on the cooktop when not in use.
Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate
on the cooktop.
Never leave the unit unattended when cooking with oil or fat. Very
hot oil can cause a fire.
Allow sufficient time for the burners
to cool before touching or expos­ing surface areas to flammable ma­terials.
If cracks or crevices appear in the
burners, immediately turn off the cooktop and contact the Miele Service Department or your local service dealer.
Avoid spilling liquids or food con-
taining salt on a stainless steel cooktop. Should this happen, wipe up any spills immediately. Otherwise disco­loration of the steel could occur.
Always cook pork thoroughly to en-
sure that, in the event of trichina, all bacteria will be killed and the meat is safe to eat.
When using an electrical outlet
near the cooktop, make sure that the cable of the appliance does not come into contact with the burners of the unit.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Use pots and pans that are the
same size as the cooktop heating elements.
Warning and Safety Instructions
Do not use water on grease fires. Smother any fire or flame or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
When high settings are used, re-
main near the cooktop in case splattering grease or liquid boil overs cause smoke.
Only use dry potholders.
Only use cookware suitable for
range-top service. Unsuitable cookware may break due to sudden temperature changes.
Always position the handle of the
cookware toward the center of the range to minimize burns, and spillage.
Before removing pots and pans,
be sure to turn the cooktop ”OFF“.
Always heat oil slowly, so it doesn’t
bubble over.
When frying foods, make sure that
the food is as dry as possible to prevent moisture from causing hot oil to bubble over.
When shallow or deep frying, do
not overfill the pan with oil.
Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above or be­hind the cooktop – children climbing on the cooktop to reach items could be seriously injured.
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean the cooktop. The steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Save these instructions and review them periodically.
Disposal of an old appliance
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance, turn it off at the main power connection and disconnect and remove the appliance cord. This is in­tended to prevent the discarded ap­pliance from becoming a hazard.
Text highlighted in boxes is of par­ticular importance and should be read in conjunction with the Warn­ing and Safety instructions.
Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting or hanging garments should never
be worn while using the appliance.
Do not attempt to repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in this ma­nual. All other servicing should be re­fered to a qualified technician.

Before using for the first time

Before using for the first time
Read the ”Warning and Safety In­structions“ before using for the first time.
Heat the burners for approx. 5 minutes at the highest setting without a pot in place, to harden the protective coating.

Cooktop controls

By using the individual burner control knobs, temperatures can be freely se­lected.
The controls can be turned either clock­wise or counter clockwise.
The indicator lamp for each burner lights as soon as the respective control knob is turned to a setting. It will go out when the contol knob is turned to the ”0“ position.
A resistance can be felt between set­tings 7 and 8 to indicate that the high temperature range is being entered.
Cooktop controls
Correct procedure:
Place the pot of food on the burner. Select a high setting for boiling or
searing meat. Once steam appears on the edge of
the lid, turn to a lower setting for con­tinued cooking.
Reducing the temperature at the cor­rect time . . .
. . . prevents food from overcooking. . . . prevents food from burning. . . . saves energy.
Recommended settings
Melting butter, chocolate etc. Dissolving gelatin Preparing yogurt
Keeping food warm Warming small quantities of food / liquid Thickening sauces containing egg yolk or butter Cooking milk pudding Omelettes
Defrosting deep frozen food Cooking rice, pasta Steaming fruit, vegetables, fish Cooking broths, soups
Braizing meat, fish, vegetables Cooking dumplings, potatoes, soups Preparing jams, jellies, stewed fruit
Frying chops, liver, sausage, fish, eggs Frying pancakes, dropped biscuits and other liquid batters
Frying steaks Deep frying (chips, fritters)
Boiling water These figures are a guide. With deep pans, large quantities, or without lids, a higher setting is needed. With small quantities, select a lower setting.

Burner description

Burner description
Safety thermostat
All burners are equipped with safety thermostats that prevent them from overheating.
The thermostats may trip . . . if unsuitable cooking pots are used.
For example, pots with uneven bases or which are too small.
. . . when burners are used without a pot or pan.
10

Burner operation

Place a pan on the burner before turning on the appliance. This will protect the burner and save energy.
The surface of the burner and the base of the pan should be clean and dry.
Turning on the burners
Turn the control knob to the maximum setting for 1-2 minutes to allow the bur­ners to rapidly heat up. Once hot, turn the control knob to the desired cooking setting, using the table on the previous page as a guide.
After cooking
The burners will remain hot for some time after being turned off.
By turning the burners off early, the re­sidual heat of the burner can be used to continue cooking the food or keep­ing it warm.
Burner operation
Do not place any wet objects on the burners. If the burners get wet, wipe off the moisture and turn them on briefly so they dry. This will prevent rust from forming.
11
Burner operation
The following tips are designed to en­able you to
. . . make the best use of energy when using your cooktop.
. . . prevent food from boiling over and burning onto the cooktop.
Saucepan bases
For optimum energy consumption dur­ing cooking, only pots with flat or slightly concave bases should be used. When the pot is hot, the base should rest evenly on the burner.
When purchasing new pots and pans, ensure that they are suitable for use on this type of cooktop.
Pot size
The diameter of the pot should be slightly larger than the burner.

Cleaning and care

To prevent spills from burning on to the cooktop, clean the burners and cook­top surface immediately in the event of a spill.
Burners
Make sure no moisture or soil pene­trates inside the burners. Wipe off any spilt food with a damp cloth once the burners have cooled. Use a plastic scouring pad if necessary for stubborn spills. The burners can be scoured, but not the rim or cooktop surface.
Remove any residue from the burners after cleaning.
To dry the burners turn them on for a short time. It is important that they are dry in order to prevent rust from forming.
Occasional treatment with a thin film of oil, or a special cleaner for solid burner plates is recommended.
Burner trim
Cleaning and care
Cooktop surface
Avoid spilling liquids or foods con­taining salt onto the stainless steel cooktop. Should this occur, wipe up any spills immediately. Otherwise discoloration of the steel could occur.
Remove dust, oils and fats, food spills or condensed water from pots and pans immediately to prevent them from drying on. Dried-on food residues are easier to remove if they are first soft­ened with hot water.
Clean the cooktop surface using hot water and dishwashing liquid.
Do not use scouring agents or pads, knives or hard brushes. These will scratch the surface of the cooktop.
Do not use cleaners containing acids. A stainless steel cleaner can be used on the cooktop surface.
Do not use abrasive cleaners to clean the trim. Clean the trim using an appropriate metal or stainless steel cleaner.
Control panel / Control knobs
Do not use any scouring agents or pads on the knobs or control panel.
Clean the cooktop controls and control panel with hot water and dishwashing liquid. After cleaning, rub dry with a soft cloth.

Problem solving guide

Problem solving guide
Repairs to electrical appliances should only be performed by a trained technician. Unauthorized re­pairs could be dangerous.
Some minor problems, can be resolved as follows:
What to do if . . .
. . . a resistance is felt between set­tings 7 and 8?
This is normal. The resistance is there to indicate that the higher temperature range has been entered.
. . . the burner does not get hot and the burner indicator lamp does not come on?
