Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check
the hob for visible signs of damage.
Reliable and safe operation of this hob can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The hob must not be connected to the inverter of an autonomous
power supply such as e.g. a solar power system. When the appliance is switched on, power surges could result in a safety switch-off. This could damage the electronic unit.
The electrical safety of this hob can only be guaranteed when
correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.
To avoid the risk of damage to the hob, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Do not connect the hob to the mains electrical 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 hob may only be used after it has been
built in.
This hob must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Never open the casing of the hob.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
While the hob is under warranty, repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote control system.
The hob must be connected to the electricity supply by a qualified
electrician (see "Electrical connection").
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a
suitably qualified electrician with a special connection cable of type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated). See "Electrical connection".
The hob must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply
during installation, maintenance and repair work. Ensure that power is not supplied to the appliance until after it has been installed or until any maintenance or repair work has been carried out.
Danger of electric shock.
Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, disconnect it from the mains electricity supply and contact your Miele dealer.
If the hob is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), ensure
that the door is never closed whilst the hob is in use. Heat and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause subsequent damage to the hob, the housing unit and the floor. Do not close the door until the residual heat indicators have gone out.

Warning and Safety instructions

Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from the room

Danger of toxic fumes! Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood in the same room or the same area of the house as another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room. Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs and ovens.
The cooker hood draws in air from the kitchen and from neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of operation:
- extraction mode,
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the room. If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion. Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences. Risk of death!
10
Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by the heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when the cooker hood and the heater are both operated simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa) is the maximum permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The diameter of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. A ventilation brick alone is not generally sufficient to ensure safe ventilation.
The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken into account. If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder, or for gas, a qualified gas fitter should be sought.
If the cooker hood is being operated in recirculation mode, where the air is passed back into the room in which the extractor is installed, the above restrictions do not apply.
11
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.
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.
Open flames are a fire hazard!
Do not flambé food. When switched on, the cooker hood could draw flames into the filter. Kitchen grease deposits could ignite.
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.
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.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
Hot cooking vapours during cooking can cause the cooker hood
to get hot. Do not touch the casing or the grease filters until the cooker hood has cooled down.
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 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 whilst still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Wear oven gloves. Allow the cooking zones to cool down and clean them with a suitable ceramic hob cleaning agent.
Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the hob unattended whilst it is being used.
13
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
Induction heating works extremely quickly and 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 hob unattended whilst it is being used.
Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Do not use the
Booster function to heat oil or fat.
For people fitted with a heart pacemaker: Please note that the
area immediately surrounding the hob is electromagnetically charged. It is very 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
electromagnetic fields, e.g. credit cards, digital storage devices, pocket calculators, etc, do not leave them in the immediate vicinity of the hob.
Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the hob 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 hob.
This hob is fitted with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly
underneath the hob, 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 hob. 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 two pans on a cooking zone, extended zone or
PowerFlex zone at the same time.
14
Warning and Safety instructions
If the pan only partially covers the cooking zone, the handle could
become very hot. Ensure that you always place the pan in the middle of the cooking zone.
Deposits of grease and dirt will prevent the cooker hood from
working properly. Do not use the cooker hood without the grease filters in place. Otherwise cooking vapours will not be cleaned.
There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out as described in
these operating instructions.
Do not cover the intake grille on the cooker hood when in use.Liquids can damage the cooker hood if they get into it. Keep
liquids away from the cooker hood.
Light objects can be drawn into the cooker hood and impair its
operation. Do not place any light objects (e.g. paper towels) within close proximity of the cooker hood.
15
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.
If the hob is built in over a pyrolytic oven, the hob should not be
used whilst the pyrolytic process is being carried out, as this could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the hob (see relevant section).

Accessories

Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.
16

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.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also 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. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your Miele dealer for advice.
Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for 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, data plate, warranty" 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 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 hobs is very much shorter than on conventional hobs.
22

Induction

How it works

An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.
An induction cooking zone only works when a pan with a magnetic base is placed on it (see "Pans"). Induction automatically recognises the size of the pan.
The set power level flashes in the numerical keybank for the cooking zone
– if the zone has been switched on
without a pan in place, or 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 cooking
zone when it is switched on.
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 placed on the hob (e.g. cutlery) heating up.
Danger of burning. Do not use the appliance as a resting
place for anything else. Switch the cooking zones off after use with the appropriate sensor controls.
If a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone within 3 minutes, the flashing power level will go out and you can continue as normal.
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the cooking zone, the cooking zone will switch off automatically after 3minutes.
23
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 settings, it might buzz. This will decrease or cease altogether when the power setting 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 linked zones (see "Booster") are being used at the same time, and the pans also have bases made of layers of different materials.
You might hear a clicking sound from the electronic switches, especially on lower power settings.
You might hear a whirring sound when the cooling fan switches on. It switches on to protect the electronics when the hob is being used intensively. The fan may continue to run after the appliance has been switched off.
24
Induction

Cookware

Suitable pans include:
– stainless steel pans with a magnetic
base
– enamelled steel pans
– cast iron pans
Unsuitable pans include:
– stainless steel pans without a
magnetic base
– aluminium or copper pans
– glass, ceramic or earthenware pots
and pans
To test whether a pot or pan is induction-compatible, hold a magnet to the base of the pan. If the magnet sticks, the pan is generally suitable. If the pan is unsuitable the set power level will flash in the numerical keybank for the cooking zone.
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"). If the pan is too small it will not be recognised and the set power level will flash in the numerical keybank for the cooking zone.
– 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.
– 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.
25

How the cooker hood works

The cooker hood can be operated in one of the following ways:

Extraction mode

The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filter and directed outside.

Recirculation mode

(DUU 1000(-1) conversion kit required)
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filter. The air is then directed into the recirculation box where it is also cleaned by the charcoal filters. The cleaned air is then recirculated back into the kitchen.

Operating hours counter

The number of hours that the cooker hood has been used for is stored in memory.
When the grease filter symbol or the charcoal filter symbol , lights up, the operating hours counters are signalling that the filters need to be cleaned or changed. Further information about cleaning and changing the filters and resetting the operating hours counter can be found under "Cleaning and care".
The instruction manual supplied with the recirculation box states that the operating hours counter for the charcoal filter needs to be activated. This is not necessary here.
The charcoal filter system also appears when the appliance is operated using extraction mode.
26

Tips on saving energy

– Use a lid whenever possible to
minimise heat loss.
– 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.
– Use a pressure cooker to reduce
cooking times.
– It is important to ensure that the
kitchen is well ventilated during operation. In extraction mode if there is insufficient air flow, the cooker hood cannot operate efficiently and this causes increased operating noise levels.
– Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking vapours, so you can use a lower power level and therefore benefit from reduced energy consumption.
– Clean or replace the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce performance, increase the risk of fire and are unhygienic.
– Check the power level on the cooker
hood. A low power level is usually sufficient. Only use the Booster setting when necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapours are being produced, switch to a high power level in good time. This is more efficient than operating the cooker hood for longer to try to capture cooking vapours which have already been distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Switch the cooker hood off after
cooking.
27

Cooking zone power levels

The cooking zones are set as standard with 9 power levels. If you wish to fine-tune a setting, you can extend the power level range to 17power levels (see "Programming").

Extended
settings
(17 power
levels)
These settings should only be taken as a guide. The power of the induction coils will vary depending on the size and material of the pan. For this reason it is possible that the settings will need to be adjusted slightly to suit your pans. As you use the hob, you will get to know which settings suit your pans best. When using new pans that you are not familiar with, set the power level below the one specified.
