Safety with children
 Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
 Older children may only use the appliance when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
 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

Technical safety
 Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical
appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service
technician.
 A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check it for any visible
damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.
 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 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 electrical 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.

 The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved 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.
 Connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a suitably
qualified gas fitter. If the plug has been removed or the connection
cable is not supplied with a plug, the cooktop must be connected to
the mains supply by a suitably qualified 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 approved service technician or
suitably qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard. See
"Electrical connection".
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
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 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.
– the gas inlet valve is closed.
 Danger of electric shock!
Do not use the cooktop or switch it off immediately if it is faulty, or if
the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way.
Disconnect it from the mains electricity supply and gas supply, and
contact Miele.

 If the cooktop is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door),
ensure that the door is never closed whilst the cooktop is in use.
Heat and moisture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and
cause subsequent 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.
 This cooktop is not suitable for installation and operation with
aftermarket lids or covers fitted.
