Keep all pans out of reach of children. Turn pan handles inwards away from the edge of the cooktop. Danger of burning or scalding. Special cooktop guards are available from good retail outlets.
Packaging, e.g. cling film, polystyrene and plastic wrappings, must be kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation. Dispose of or recycle all packaging safely as soon as possible.

Technical safety

Before installation, check the appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance is dangerous.
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 regularly tested, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.
▶ Never open the housing of the appliance.

Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

▶ Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
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 fuse is disconnected,
• the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable),
• it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from the socket, or it is switched off at the isolator.
  While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be undertaken by a service technician authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.
  ▶ Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suitably qualified electrician with a specialist connection cable of type H 05 VV-F (pvc insulated), available from the Miele Spare Parts Department.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control-system.
Do not use the cooktop if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Danger of electric shock.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Correct use

The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.
Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is in use. Pans that have boiled dry can cause damage to the ceramic surface for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable.

Boiling fat or oil could ignite and cause a fire.

If oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to put out the flames with water. Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
Do not use the appliance to heat up the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects near the appliance could catch fire. The life of the appliance could also be reduced.
During prolonged or intensive use of the appliance, the frame gets hot and the control panel can also become quite warm. This is quite normal and does not indicate a fault.

For added protection, it is advisable to use heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.

Do not flambé under a rangehood. The flames could set the rangehood on fire.

Do not use the appliance as a resting place for anything else. When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of metal objects heating up, with a danger of burning.

Depending on the material, other objects left on the cooktop could also melt or catch fire.

Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be difficult to dislodge.

Switch the cooking zones off after use.

Do not cover the appliance, e.g. with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could be a fire hazard if the appliance is switched on by mistake.

Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers. These melt at high temperatures, and could catch fire.

Do not heat up unopened tins of food on the cooktop, as pressure will build up in the tin, causing it to explode. This could result in injury and scalding or damage.

Do not use pots and pans on the ceramic cooktop with bases with pronounced edges or or ridges, e.g. cast iron pans. These could scratch or scour the cooktop surface permanently.

Do not use cookware with an exposed copper or aluminium base as they may leave permanent visual marks on the ceramic surface.

▶ Never heat an empty pan unless the manufacturer of the pan expressly states that you can do so. This could damage the appliance.

▶ Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can cause scratches.

▶ Never place hot pans near or on the residual heat indicators. This could damage the electronic unit underneath.

▶ Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface. Even a light object could cause damage in certain circumstances.

To prevent the risk of spillages etc. burning on, remove any soiling as quickly as possible and ensure that pan bases are clean, dry and free of grease.

Do not allow either solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium foil to get onto the cooking zones when they are hot. If this should occur, switch off the appliance, and carefully scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues from the cooktop whilst they are still hot, using a shielded scaper blade. Take care not to burn yourself. If residues are allowed to cool before being removed, the ceramic surface will be susceptible to pitting or even cracking.

Once the residues have been removed, allow the appliance to cool down, and then clean with a suitable proprietary ceramic cooktop cleaner.

When using an electric socket near the cooktop, care should be taken that the cable of the electrical appliance does not come into contact with a hot cooking zone. The insulation on the cable could become damaged, giving rise to an electric shock hazard.

Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances must not be stored in a drawer under the cooktop. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.

▶ Always ensure that food is sufficiently cooked or reheated. Some foods may contain micro-organisms which are only destroyed by thorough cooking at a sufficiently high temperature for long enough. Therefore, when cooking or reheating food such as poultry, it is particularly important that the food is completely cooked through. If in doubt, select a longer cooking or reheating time.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can normally be recycled.

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.

Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure they are offered for recycling.

Disposal of your old appliance or machine

Electrical and electronic appliances / machines 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 or machine. Therefore, please do not dispose of your old machine or appliance with your household waste.

Symbol of a trash bin crossed with two crossed lines and a solid black rectangle below (no text or labels)

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre and ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected from the mains electricity supply by a competent person.

The plug must be rendered useless and the cable cut off directly behind the appliance or the machine to prevent misuse.

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.

Cleaning for the first time

Remove any protective wrapping and stickers.

Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a damp cloth only and then wipe dry.

Do not use washing up liquid to clean the ceramic surface as it can leave a blue sheen which may be difficult to remove.

On cooktops with bevelled glass edges, a small gap may be visible between the cooktop and the worktop during the first few days after installation. This gap will reduce with time as the appliance is used and will not affect the electrical safety of your appliance.

Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.

The smell and any fumes given off do not mean that the appliance is defective or has been wrongly installed, and they are not harmful to health.

Switching on and off

Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used.

Controls on cooking zones without extended areas can be turned through 360°. These cooking zones are switched on by turning the appropriate control clockwise or anti-clockwise to the required setting, and switched off by turning the control clockwise or anti-clockwise back to "0".

Controls for cooking zones with extended areas have a resistance on them. These cooking zones are switched on by turning the appropriate control clockwise to the required setting, and switched off by turning the control anti-clockwise back to "0".

Do not force the control past the point of resistance to "0", as this will damage it.

Residual heat indicators

When a cooking zone is switched on, e.g. front left, the appropriate residual heat indicator lights up in the display when the zone has reached a certain temperature.

Simple geometric shape: a white rounded rectangle with a small circle inside, on a gray background (no text or symbols)

The residual heat indicator will go out after the cooking zone has been switched off once the temperature has dropped to a safe level.

Do not touch the cooking zones or place any heat-sensitive items on them whilst they are still hot. Danger of burning, and fire hazard.

Settings

Cooking process Setting
Melting butter, chocolate etc. Dissolving gelatine Preparing yoghurt	1 - 2
Thickening sauces containing egg yolk and butter Warming small quantities of food/liquid Keeping warm food which sticks easily Cooking rice	1 - 3
Warming liquid and semi-solid foods Thickening sauces, e.g. hollandaise Making porridge Preparing omelettes, lightly fried eggs Steaming fruit	3 - 5
Defrosting deep frozen food Steaming vegetables, fish Cooking dumplings, potatoes, pulses Cooking broths, pulse soups	4 - 6
Bringing to the boil and continued cooking of large quantities of food	7
Gentle braising (without overheating the fat) of meat, fish, vegetables, fried eggs etc.	8 - 9
Frying pancakes etc. 9 - 11
Boiling large quantities of water Bringing to the boil	11 - 12

These settings, which envisage approx. 4 helpings, should only be taken as a guide. With deep pans, large quantities or when cooking without a lid, a higher setting is needed. For smaller quantities, select a lower setting.

Switching on an extended area

Depending on model, the outer circle of a double circle zone or the extended cooking zone can be switched on to provide an extended cooking area when cooking with larger pans.

Proceed as follows:

■ Turn the cooking zone control clockwise past "12" as far as it will go.
■ Then turn the control anti-clockwise back to the required setting.

Switch the extended cooking zone off by turning the control back to the "0" position.

Pans

• Pans made from any material can be used on a ceramic cooktop. However, Miele recommends to refrain from using cookware with an exposed copper or aluminium base as they may leave permanent visual marks on the ceramic surface.
• The best pans are those with a thick base which is very slightly concave when cold. When heated, the base flattens to rest evenly on the cooktop, optimising the conduction of the heat.

Cold Hot

• Pans made of glass, ceramic or stoneware are less suitable, as they do not conduct the heat so well.

• Do not use pots and pans on the ceramic cooktop with bases with pronounced edges or or ridges, e.g. cast iron pans. These could scratch or scour the cooktop surface permanently.

• Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place will cause scuffs and scratches.

• Check that the diameter of the pan base is wide enough for the cooking zone so that heat is not lost unnecessarily. 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.

Tips on saving energy

- Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.

Two cooking pots: one with a crossed-out steam and the other with a pan (no text or symbols)

Uncovered Covered

- 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.

- Use as little water as possible to cook with, and reduce the power setting once the water has come to the boil or the oil is hot enough to fry in.

- When cooking for a long time, switch the cooking zone off about 5 to 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time. In this way, use is made of the residual heat.

Overheating protection

Each cooking zone is equipped with overheating protection. An internal temperature limiter switches off the heating elements in the cooking zone before the ceramic surface overheats.

Once the ceramic has cooled down to a safe level the heating will automatically switch back on again.

Overheating can be caused by:

• switching on a cooking zone without a pan on it.
• heating up an empty pan.
• the base of a pan not sitting evenly on the cooking zone.
  – the pan not conducting the heat properly.

You can tell that the overheating protection has activated because the heating switches on and off even when the highest setting is selected.

For Miele branded cleaning and conditioning products see "Optional accessories".

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Only use proprietary cleaning products which are suitable for cleaning ceramic cooktops. Never use cleaners containing sand, soda, alkalis, acids or chlorides, oven sprays, dishwasher detergents, nor steel wool, abrasive cleaning agents, hard brushes, scouring pads and cloths. You should also avoid using sponges etc. which have previously been used with abrasive cleaning agents, as this will damage the surface.

Do not use washing up liquid to clean the ceramic surface, as it can leave a blue sheen which may be difficult to remove.

Do not use sharp objects which may damage the seals between the ceramic surface and the frame or between the frame and the worktop.

To prevent the risk of spillages burning on, remove any soiling as soon as possible, and ensure that pan bases are clean, dry and free of grease.

The appliance should be cleaned after each use. Allow the cooktop to cool down before cleaning.

Wipe all coarse soiling off using a damp cloth. Stubborn soiling may need to be removed with a shielded scraper blade.

Finally, clean the cooktop with a suitable proprietary ceramic cooktop cleaner (see "Optional accessories") applied with kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not apply cleaner whilst the cooktop is still hot, as this could result in marking. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Finally wipe the appliance with a damp cloth, and then dry it with a clean, soft cloth. Ensure that all cleaning agent residues are removed. Residues can burn onto the cooktop the next time it is used, and cause damage to the ceramic surface.

Spots caused by limescale deposits, water and aluminium residues (which have a metallic appearance) can be removed using the ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Should any sugar, plastic or aluminium foil spill or fall on to a hot cooking zone, first switch off the appliance. Then carefully scrape off all the sugar, plastic or aluminium residues from the cooktop whilst they are still hot using a shielded scraper blade. Take care not to burn yourself.

Allow the cooking zone to cool down, and then clean as described above with a suitable proprietary ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Appliances with aluminium frames (see data plate) are prone to scratching, alkali and acid damage. Take great care when cleaning the aluminium frame. Do not use cleaning agents for stainless steel or descaling agents on aluminium surfaces. Soiling should be wiped off as soon as possible after using the appliance. If the soiling is left for a long time it can have a damaging effect on the aluminium surfaces. Intensive cleaning with proprietary ceramic cooktop cleaners can cause the frame to take on a shiny appearance.

If you are unsure about a particular product or need further advice please contact your nearest Miele Customer Contact Centre. See back page for address.

Repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Ensure that current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

... the food in the pan hardly heats up or does not heat up at all

This could be because:

- the pan is not conducting heat properly.

- the pan is too large in relation to the cooking zone and an extended zone has not been switched on.

What to do if ...

... the appliance does not heat up when switched on

Check whether the mains fuse has blown. If the fuse has blown, contact an electrician or the Miele Customer Contact Centre.
