installation, use and maintenance of the appliance. This prevents
both personal injury and damage to the cooktop.
In accordance with standard IEC 60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in
“Installation”, as well as in the “Warning and Safety instructions”.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct application
 This cooktop is designed for domestic use and for use in similar
environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed & breakfasts
and other typical living quarters. This does not include common/
shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels, motels or bed
& breakfasts.
 This cooktop is not suitable for outdoor use.
 It is intended only to cook food and keep it warm. Any other use is
not supported by Miele and could be dangerous.
 This cooktop is not intended for use by people (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
and instruction concerning its use by a person responsible for their
safety. They may only use the cooktop unsupervised if they have
been shown how to use it in a safe way. They must be able to
recognise and understand the potential dangers of improper use.

Warning and Safety instructions
6
Safety with children
 Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
 Older children may only use the appliance if its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely.
They must be aware of the potential dangers caused by incorrect
operation.
 Cleaning may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.
 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the cooktop and do not
let them play with it.
 The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while
after being switched off. Keep children well away from the cooktop
until it has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.
 Danger of burning! Do not store anything which might arouse a
child's interest in storage areas above or behind the cooktop.
Otherwise children could be tempted to climb onto the cooktop with
the risk of burning themselves.
 Danger of burning and scalding! Turn the handles of pots and
pans on the cooktop to the side or the rear so that children cannot
pull them down and burn themselves.
 Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children may become
entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it
over their head with the risk of suffocation. Keep packaging material
away from children.
 Activate the system lock to ensure that children cannot switch on
the cooktop inadvertently. Use the safety lock when the cooktop is in
use to prevent children from altering the settings selected.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs (including
removal of any cover) 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 cooktop must not be connected to the inverter of an
autonomous power supply, e.g. a solar power system. When the
cooktop is switched on, power surges could result in a safety
switch-off. This may damage the electronic unit.
 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).

Warning and Safety instructions
8
 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.
 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, do not use the cooktop and switch
it off immediately. Disconnect the cooktop from the 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
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.

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.
 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.
 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 heatresistant.
 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.
