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 cooktop can compromise your safety. Check the
appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not use the cooktop if it is
damaged.
 Reliable and safe operation of this cooktop 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.
 Do not connect the cooktop to the mains electricity 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 cooktop 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 cooktop.
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
8
 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 cooktop is not intended for use with an external timer switch
or a remote control system.
 If the plug has been removed or the connection cable is not
supplied with a plug, the cooktop must be connected to the mains
electricity supply by a suitably qualified and competent electrician.
 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”).
 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 circuit breaker is switched off, 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.
 Danger of electric shock!
If the ceramic surface is faulty, cracked, chipped or damaged in any
way, switch off the cooktop immediately. Disconnect the cooktop
from the mains electricity supply. Contact Miele.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
 If the cooktop is installed behind a furniture door, do not close the
door while the cooktop is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door. This can result in damage to the cooktop,
the housing unit and the floor. Do not close the door until 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
Correct use
 The cooktop 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 cooktop
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If it does ignite, do not
attempt to put the flames out with water.
Switch off the cooktop and use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid,
damp towel or similar to smother the flames.
 Flames could set the grease filters of a rangehood on fire. Do not
flambé under a rangehood.
 Spray canisters, aerosols and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the cooktop. 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 cooktop, as pressure can build up in the containers, causing
them to explode.
 Do not cover the cooktop, e.g. with a cooktop cover, a cloth or
protective foil. The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the
cooktop 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 cooktop heating up, with the danger of
burning. Depending on the material, other items left on the cooktop
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
and do not rely on the pan detector.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
 You could burn yourself on the hot cooktop. 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.
 When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food mixer,
near the cooktop, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance
cannot come into contact with the hot cooktop. 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.
 Hot pans on the display can cause damage to the electronics
underneath. Do not place hot pans on the display or on the area
around the display.
 Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium
foil to get onto the cooktop when it is 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 suitable for
use on glass. Wear oven gloves when doing this. Allow the ceramic
surface to cool down and then clean it with a suitable ceramic
cooktop cleaning agent.
 Pans which boil dry can cause damage to the ceramic glass. Do
not leave the cooktop unattended whilst it is being used.
 Only use pots and pans with smooth bases. Rough bases will
scratch the ceramic glass.
 Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can
cause scuffs and scratches.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
 Because induction heating works extremely quickly, 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 cooktop unattended
whilst it is being used.
 Heat oil or fat for a maximum of one minute. Never use the
Booster function to heat oil or fat.
 For people fitted with a heart pacemaker: please note that the
area immediately surrounding the cooktop is electromagnetically
charged when it is switched on. 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 cooktop.
 Metal utensils stored in a drawer under the cooktop 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 cooktop.
 The cooktop is fitted with a cooling fan. If a drawer is fitted directly
underneath the cooktop, ensure that there is sufficient space
between the drawer and its contents and the underside of the
cooktop in order to ensure sufficient ventilation of the cooktop. 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 casing by
the fan and damage the fan or impair cooling.
 Never use two pans on a cooking zone or extended zone at the
same time.
 If the cookware only partially covers a cooking zone or extended
zone, the handle could become very hot.
Always place cookware in the middle of a cooking zone or extended
zone!

Warning and Safety instructions
13
 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.
 The cooking process has to be supervised. A short term cooking
process has to be supervised continuously.

Warning and Safety instructions
14
Cleaning and care
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
 If the cooktop is built in over a pyrolytic oven, the cooktop should
not be used whilst the pyrolytic process is being carried out, as this
could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the cooktop
(see relevant section).

Caring for the environment
15
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.
