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.
 Damage to the wok burner can compromise your safety. Check
the appliance for visible signs of damage. Never use a damaged wok
burner.
 Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 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. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
 Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard
and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
 For safety reasons, this appliance 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).
 Never open the casing of the wok burner.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.

Warning and Safety instructions

 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 wok burner is not intended for use with an external timer
switch or a remote control system.
 If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special connection cable type H 05 VV-F (PVC insulated),
available from Miele, by a Miele authorised service technician or
suitably qualified and competent electrician in order to avoid a
hazard (see “Electrical connection”).
 Connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent gas fitter. If the plug has been removed or
the connection cable is not supplied with a plug, the appliance must
be connected to the mains supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the wok burner
must be completely disconnected from the mains electricity supply.
The gas supply must also be turned off. It is only completely isolated
from the gas and electricity supply when:
– the main circuit breaker has been disconnected, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is
applicable), 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.
– the gas inlet valve is closed.
 Danger of electric shock!
Do not use the wok burner if it is faulty. Switch it off immediately.
Disconnect it from the mains electricity and gas supply. Call Miele.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 If the wok burner is installed behind a furniture door, do not close
the door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture
would build up behind a closed furniture door, potentially causing
damage to the appliance, the furniture unit and the flooring. Do not
close the door until the appliance has cooled down and the residual
heat indicators have gone out.
 In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and
its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the warranty.
 DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.
 This cooktop is not suitable for installation and operation with
aftermarket lids or covers fitted.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
Correct use
 The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for some
time after being switched off. Do not touch the appliance if there is a
possibility that it could still be hot.
 DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE AS A SPACE HEATER.
 Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the wok
burner unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite, do
not attempt to put the flames out with water.
Switch off the wok burner 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.
 DO NOT USE OR STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN THE
APPLIANCE STORAGE DRAWER OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.
CUTLERY INSERTS MUST BE HEAT-RESISTANT.
 DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS
APPLIANCE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION.
 Do not heat an empty pan.
 Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the wok burner, as pressure can build up in the containers,
causing them to explode.
 Do not cover the wok burner, e.g. with a cooktop cover, a cloth or
protective foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the
wok burner is switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still
present.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
 When the wok burner 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 wok heating up, with the danger of
burning. Depending on the material, other items left on the appliance
could also melt or catch fire. Do not use the wok burner as a resting
place.
 You could burn yourself on the hot appliance. 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 on steam. Be sure to keep all textiles away from the
gas flames. Do not use oversized cloths, tea towels or other similar
materials.
 When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food mixer,
near the wok burner, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance
cannot come into contact with the hot wok burner. The insulation on
the cable could become damaged.
 Plastic and aluminium foil containers melt at high temperatures.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers on the cooktop.
 When a control knob is pressed down, a spark is generated on the
ignitor. Do not press down the control knob while you are cleaning or
touching the wok or the burner in the vicinity of an ignitor.
 If a rangehood is installed above the wok burner, ensure that the
burner is always covered with a pan when in use. Otherwise flames
could reach the rangehood, parts of which could then be damaged
or even set on fire.
 Switch the burner off when a pan is removed, even for a short
time.
 Make sure all the components of the gas burner have been
correctly assembled before switching on.

Warning and Safety instructions
13
 Pans must be the correct size for the burner they are used on (see
“Suitable cookware”). A pan which is too small will be unstable on
the pan support. If the pan diameter is too large, flames can spread
out to the sides and damage or burn the worktop, wall claddings or
surrounding units and also parts of the cooktop. Miele cannot be
held liable for this type of damage.
 Ensure that the flames from the burner do not spread out beyond
the base and up the sides of the pan.
 Do not use pans with very thin bases on this cooktop, and never
heat up empty pans as they could get damaged. This could also
damage the appliance.
 The pan supports supplied with the appliance must always be
used. Never place a pan on the burner itself.
 Replace the pan supports carefully to avoid scratching the surface
of the cooktop.
 Remove all grease spatters and other combustible (food) residues
from the wok burner as soon as possible. They are a fire hazard.
 Avoid allowing liquids or foods containing salt to spill onto the
cooktop. If salty foods or liquids do get on the cooktop, they should
be removed as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.
 The use of the wok burner creates heat, moisture and combustion
products in the room where it is installed. Make sure that the
appliance is installed in a location with sufficient ventilation. Natural
ventilation openings should not be blocked. Alternatively, a
mechanical ventilation device (e.g. a rangehood) can be installed.
 If the wok burner is used for very long periods of time, additional
ventilation of the room may be necessary, e.g. by opening windows
or doors, or running the rangehood on the highest setting.

Warning and Safety instructions
14
 If the appliance has not been used for a long period of time it
should be thoroughly cleaned before it is used again. It is also
advisable to have the appliance tested by a qualified person for
safety.
 Where several ProLine elements are installed side by side:
Hot objects can damage the seal of the cover strip. Do not place hot
pans near or on the cover strip.

Warning and Safety instructions
15
Cleaning and care
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this wok burner.
Pressurised steam could reach the electrical components and cause
a short circuit.

Caring for the environment
16
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.
