IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Damage protection

Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface of the cooktop. Even lightweight objects could cause damage to the ceramic glass pane.

Do not use pots or pans with pronounced edges or ridges on the ceramic cooktop. These could scratch the cooktop permanently. See "Selecting cookware" for more information. Grains of salt and sand can also scratch. Make sure that the bases of any pots and pans are clean, free of any fat or oils and are dry.

Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or foil to fall on the burners when they are hot. If these residues are allowed to cool on the ceramic surface pitting or even cracking could occur. If sugar, plastic or foil gets on the ceramic surface, turn the cooktop off. Clean the surface immediately with a shielded scraper blade while still hot.

Caution: Danger of burns! Clean the burners throughly when cooled.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurized steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Pressurized steam could cause permanent damage to the surface and to components, for which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility.

Never place hot pots or pans over the touch controls, as the underlying electronics may be damaged.

If a drawer is installed beneath the cooktop, a sufficient distance between the contents of the drawer and the bottom of the cooktop must exist. Otherwise the venting of the cooktop is not guaranteed.

Personal safety

When in use, the appliance may become very hot and remain so for a while after the cooktop has been turned off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.

Use potholders when working with a hot appliance. Use only dry, heat resistant potholders. Moist or damp potholders used on hot surfaces can result in steam burns.

Do not heat unopened food cans on the cooktop. Built-up pressure may cause the container to burst and result in injury.

Do not place objects other than pots and pans on the cooktop. Be especially careful not to place knives, forks or spoons etc, or other metallic items on the cokktop. If the cooktop is switched on, or if there is residual heat present, the metallic items can heat up and cause burning. Remember that metallic items can cause the burner to heat up unintentionally! Depending on material, other non-metallic items can melt or burn if placed on the cooktop. Switch the cooktop off after use.

Never cover the cooktop with a cloth or foil. Danger of fire!

Never leave the cooktop unattended when cooking with oil or fat. Overheated fat or oil could ignite and set the venting hoods on fire. Always heat oil slowly, monitoring it as it heats. This is a fire hazard.

Do not use water on grease fires. Smother any fire or flame, or use a dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.

Do not flambé under an exhaust hood. Flames could be drawn up into the hood by the suction or the grease filter may ignite.

■ Pot and pan handles should be turned inward and not extend over the countertop to reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spills.

Be aware of loose fitting or hanging garments when operating the cooktop, they may present a hazard.

When frying food make sure that the food is as dry as possible before placing it in hot oil. Moisture can cause oil to splatter and boil over. At high settings, be cautious of splattering grease or boiling over liquids which may produce smoke.

To prevent burns and breathing difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning. Some cleaners may produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot surface.

When wiping spills on a hot cooktop with a wet sponge or cloth, be careful to avoid steam burns.

Do not let flammable materials, i. e. cooking grease, accumulate on the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Ensure that power is not supplied to the appliance during maintenance or repair work.

Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Any breakages or cracks in the ceramic surface of the appliance are defects and must be treated as such. If the cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spills may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Do not use the appliance until it has been repaired.

Repairs should only be performed by qualified technicians to ensure safety. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance.

While the appliance is under warranty repairs should only be performed by an authorized service technician. Otherwise the warranty is void.

Further safety notes

Only for persons with a pacemaker:

Please be advised, that in close proximity of the turned on cooktop an electromagnetic field exists. An interference of the pacemaker is not likely. However, if in doubt consult your doctor or the pacemaker manufacturer.

Take care that the cookware is placed in the middle of the burner to cover the electromagnetic field.

Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with the cooktop. The insulation on the cable could become damaged. Danger of electric shock!

■ Magnetizable items like credit cards, disks, calculators should not be placed onto or next to the turned on cooktop. They may be damaged.

If there is a drawer directly underneath the appliance without any wooden base in between, ensure that no aerosols, combustible liquids or other easily flammable materials are kept in it. If cutlery inserts are to be placed in the drawer, they must be made of a heat-resistant material.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY

Clean the cooktop

■ Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.

Heat the cooktop

Metal components of the cooktop have a protective coating which may give off a slight odor the first time the appliance is heated.

The smell will dissipate after a short time and does not indicate a faulty connection or appliance defect.

Touch controls

This cooktop has electronic touch controls activated by a finger. A tone sounds to indicate that contact has been made with a control.

Keep the control area clean and do not rest items on it. The touch control sensors could mistake an item or debris for a finger contact, turning the cooktop on or off.

To prevent damage to the electronics never place hot pans on the control panel.

Automatic reset

To ensure the cooktop functions properly the touch controls will automatically reset:

• when the cooktop is connected to the electrical supply.
• if there is an interruption to the electrical supply, and
  – during use in response to changing light conditions.

During the automatic reset of the touch controls the Child Safety Lock indicator illuminates and the cooktop cannot be turned on.

If the automatic reset could not be completed an R will light in the burner displays front left and right, and a F in the rear left burner display. The right rear burner display and the timer display will show numbers.

In this case the touch controls must be manually reset.

Manual reset

■ Make sure no direct light (sun or artificial) beams on the cooktop. The surrounding area of the cooktop should not be completely shaded or brightly lit.
■ Make sure the cooktop and the touch controls are not covered. Remove all pots and pans and clean the cooktop if necessary.
- Trip the circuit breaker to the cooktop or turn off the power main for 1 minute.

The touch controls will automatically reset when the power is restored.

If the problem persists, call Miele Technical Service.

Function

An induction coil is installed beneath each burner. If a burner is turned on, the coil produces a magnetic field, which operates directly on the cookware bottom and heats it. The burner is indirectly heated by the heat radiated from the pot.

Burners with induction operate only when cookware with a magnetizable bottom is placed on them, see "Selecting cookware".

The induction considers automatically the size of the placed cookware, which means it operates only in the area of the surface covered by the cookware bottom.

The burner does not operate

• when turned on without or with unsuitable cookware (cookware without magnetizable bottom).
• when the bottom diameter of the placed cookware is too small.
• when the cookware is removed from a turned on burner.

The symbol alternating with or the last set power level will flash in the burner display.

If suitable cookware is placed on the burner within 3 minutes, the ⚪ symbol goes out.

If no or unsuitable cookware is used, the burner and cooktop are turned off automatically after 3 minutes.

Do not place knives, forks or spoons etc., or other metallic items on the cooktop. If the cooktop is switched on, or if there is residual heat present, the metallic items can heat up and cause burning. Remember that metallic items can cause the burner to heat up unintentionally! Switch the cooktop off after use.

Sounds

When operating induction burners, the following sounds can occur depending on the material of the cookware base:

- Buzzing can be heard at high power levels. It will quiet down or go out, when the power level is turned down.

- Crackling occurs when the cookware has a base made from several materials, e.g. sandwich bottom.

- Whistling can occur, when connected burners (see "Booster function) are operated on the highest power level and cookware with a base made from several materials are used.

- Clicking can occur during electronic switching operations, especially at lower power levels.

- Whizzing: To extend the electronic durability, the appliance is fitted with a cooling fan. If the cooktop is intensively used, the fan is turned on and a whirring sounds. The cooling fan will continue to run after the cooktop was turned off.

Suitable cookware

• Stainless steel with magnetizable bottom
• Enameled steel
• Cast iron

Unsuitable cookware

• Stainless steel with non magnetizable bottom
• Aluminum, copper
• Glass, ceramic, earthenware

If in doubt, whether cookware is suitable for use on the induction, check by holding a magnet on the cookware bottom. If the magnet sticks, the cookware is suitable.

To prevent damage to the cooktop do not use pots and pans with thin bases on this cooktop. Never heat an empty pan unless the pan manufacturer states that you can do so.

Cookware size

For optimum burner use, select the size of the cookware so it fits between the inner and outer marking of the burner. If the pot is smaller than the inner marking, the induction may not operate. The burner reacts, as if no cookware was placed on it.

Please note that cookware diameters given by the manufacturer are usually the maximum/upper diameter. For use on the burner the (usually smaller) bottom diameter is important.

Energy saving tips

Using a lid while cooking will minimize the loss of heat and decrease cooking time.

* These settings are recommendations for 4 portions. With large pots, large quantities or cooking without the lid, a higher setting is needed. With smaller quantities select a lower setting.

** If a more defined setting of the power level is desired, the range of the power level can be extended. See "Programming". The intermediate stage will be indicated by a dot lit next to the power level number.

Auto-heat

When auto-heat has been activated, the burner turns on automatically at the highest setting and then changes to the selected power level. The auto-heat time depends on which power level has been chosen (see table).

If the cookware is removed during auto-heat, the auto-heat phase will be interrupted. It will be continued, when the cookware is replaced on the burner (within 3 minutes).

* The power levels with a period are only available if the power levels were extended. See "Programming".

To activate auto-heat

■ If 0 shows in the display, touch - until the continued power level is displayed, e.g. 3.

12 segments will light in the lighting circle during the auto-heat time. After the auto-heat time has elapsed, only the number of segments will light which correspond to the selected power level.

Example:

during the Auto-heat:

3 - +

during the continued cooking time:

The power level can be increased or decreased during the auto-heat with the -/+ controls. The auto-heat time changes accordingly.

Cooking without auto-heat

■ Turn the burner on with +. Touch the + sensor until the desired time is displayed, e.g. 4.

Additionally the power level is indicated by the number of segments in the lighting circle. For example: Power level 4 shows four segments.

4 - +

Booster function

All burners are equipped with a booster function. If the booster function (a power boost) is selected, the burners will operate for 10 minutes on the highest power level (12). The booster function is designed to boil large volumes of water quickly, e.g. to cook pasta. Two booster functions can be used at the same time.

If the cookware is removed during auto-heat, the auto-heat phase will be interrupted. It will be continued, when the cookware is replaced on the burner (within 3 minutes).

The booster power can only be provided, by taking power from other burners during the booster time. Therefore two burners are networked as shown:

Simple diagram with four circles and two downward arrows, no text or symbols present

Turning the booster on causes:

• a selected auto-heat on the networked burners to be turned off.
• The power level of the related burner will be reduced. The selected and the reduced power level flash alternately until the booster function has turned off. The reduced power level is also shown by the number of segments in the lighting cycle.

Turning the booster on

Overheating protection

All induction coils and the cooling system of the electronic are designed with an overheating protection feature. Before overheating of the induction coils or the cooling system, the overheating protection takes the following actions at the burner/cooktop:

• If the booster function is turned on, it will be canceled.
• If the power level is set between 10 and 12, it will be reduced. The set and the reduced power level flash alternately. The reduced power level is additionally shown by the number of segments in the lighting cycle.
• If an induction coil is affected, the burner will automatically turn off. A 0 and the residual heat symbol is shown in the display.

Once the burner has sufficiently cooled, you can used it as usual.

- If the cooling system is affected, all burners will automatically turn off, and the display will show 0 alternating with the set power level.

Once the cooling system has sufficiently cooled, the burners will automatically operate with the originally set power level.

The overheating protection will be activated if:

• empty cookware is heated.
• grease or oil is heated at a high power level.
  – the bottom of the cooktop is not sufficiently vented.

If the overheating protection still activates, call Technical Service.

When cleaning the cooktop, make sure the cooktop is "Off", and be careful not to accidentally turn it "On".

Under no circumstances should a steam cleaner be used to clean this appliance. Pressurized steam could cause permanent damage to the surface and to components for which the manufacturer cannot accept responsibility.

Do not use any sharp pointed objects which could damage the seal between the ceramic surface, the surrounding frame and the countertop.

Never use scouring agents, pads, abrasive cleaning agents or strong cleaners, e.g. oven sprays, stain or rust removers, as these could damage the surface of the appliance.

After cleaning, thoroughly dry the ceramic surface with a soft cloth to prevent a build up of limescale deposits.

■ The ceramic surface should be cleaned regularly with a cleaner for ceramic surfaces. Follow the ceramic cleaner manufacturer's instructions. If you have difficulty locating a suitable product contact Miele.

■ Before cleaning allow the cooktop to cool. Wipe spills using a damp sponge. Stubborn spills are best removed with a shielded scraper blade.

■ To remove any limescale deposits or metallic residue apply ceramic cleanser using a soft cloth or use a shielded scraper blade if necessary.

■ A cleaner with a special additive to prevent water marks and smears on the ceramic surface may be used.

■ After cleaning, wipe the ceramic surface with a damp cloth to remove any residue. Cleaner residues could damage the cooktop or create toxic fumes when heated. Finally, dry the cooktop with a clean soft cloth.

■ Any melted solids (e.g. sugar, plastic, syrup, aluminum foil, etc.) should be removed as quickly as possible and while the burner is still warm. If they are allowed to harden, the cooktop may become pitted. Scrape the melted item off the cooktop using a shielded scraper blade. Once the cooktop has cooled, remove any remaining residue using a ceramic cooktop cleaner.

The cooktop programming can be adjusted (see table).

Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Note to the installer:

Please leave this instruction book with the consumer for the local electrical inspector's use.

The minimum distances given in these Installation Instructions must be observed in order to ensure safe operation. Failure to do so increases the risk of fire.

The cabinetry and venting hood should be installed first to prevent damage to the cooktop.

The cooktop should only be installed as shown in the

illustrations while maintaining the required safety distances shown. Do not install the cooktop between two tall cabinets, this is a fire hazard.

A minimum distance of 2" (50 mm) from the cooktop to the rear wall and a side wall must be maintained for safety.

The countertop must be bonded with heat resistant (212°F/100°C)

adhesive to prevent distortion or dissolving.

not allowed

The cooktop must not be installed over a dishwasher, washer, dryer, refrigerator or freezer. Heat radiated by the cooktop may damage them.
These cooktops must not be installed above an oven without cooling fan.
This appliance is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile installations such as caravans or aircraft. However, under certain conditions it may be possible for an installation in these applications. Please contact the Miele Technical Service Department with specific requirements.
Make sure that the power cord to the cooktop does not come into contact with any mechanical parts once the cooktop has been installed.
If a cabinet base is installed beneath the appliance, the minimum distance from the countertop surface to the base must be 5 7/8" (150 mm) to vent the cooktop properly.
The cooktop must not be permanently sealed into the countertop when installed. The sealing strip under the edge of the top part of the cooktop provides a sufficient seal for the countertop. See "Sealing".

Safety distances above the appliance

Diagram showing two cabinet setups with a central display and an upward arrow, no text or symbols present.

As a general rule there must be a safety distance of at least 30" (760 mm) between the appliance and any objects above it, e.g. cabinetry, venting hood, etc. If the manufacturer of these items states a different figure, always adhere to the greater distance. Their measurements should be given in their operating and installation instructions.

If there is more than one appliance beneath a hood, e.g. wok burner and electric cooktop, and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.

Cut out

■ Make the countertop cut-out following the dimensions given in the illustration.

Remember to maintain a minimum distance of 2" (50 mm) between the rear wall on the right or left side. See also "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS".

■ Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable sealant to avoid damage caused by moisture.

The materials used must be heat resistant.

If, during installation, the seal around the frame does not sit flush with the countertop on the corners, the corner radius (maximum 3/16", 4 mm) can be carefully filed down to fit. A respective seal tape ensures a non-slip fit of the cooktop in the cut-out. The gap between frame and cooktop will be reduced over time.

Installing the cooktop

■ Feed the power cord down through the cut-out and connect the appliance to the power supply.
■ Insert the cooktop in the middle of the cut-out. When doing so make sure that the cooktop seal sits tightly on the countertop to ensure a correct seal is provided. Do not use sealant.
■ Connect the cooktop to the power supply.
■ Check the cooktop by turning it on.

Sealing

Illustration of a hand using a tool to mark a cross symbol on a screen (no text or symbols present)

The cooktop must not be permanently sealed into the countertop when installed. The sealing strip under the edge of the cooktop provides a sufficient enough seal.

If the cooktop is sealed into position, the countertop or the appliance may be damaged if the cooktop needs to be removed for maintenance or service.

⚠️ CAUTION: Before installation or servicing, disconnect the power supply by either removing the fuse, shutting off the power main or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker.

Installation work and repairs should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Repairs and service by unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not be held responsible.
