Correct application
 This grill is designed for domestic use and for use in similar envir-
onments.
 This grill is not intended for outdoor use.
 This grill is intended for domestic use only to cook food and keep
it warm. Any other use is not supported by the manufacturer and
could be dangerous.
 This grill can only be used by people with reduced physical, sens-
ory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they are supervised whilst using it. They may only use it unsuper-
vised if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way and under-
stand the hazards involved.

Warning and Safety instructions
6
Safety with children
 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the grill un-
less they are constantly supervised.
 Children 8 years and older may only use the grill unsupervised if
they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and under-
stand the consequences of incorrect operation.
 Children must not be allowed to clean the grill unsupervised.
 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the grill and do not let
them play with it.
 The grill gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after be-
ing switched off. Keep children well away from the appliance 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 stor-
age areas above or next to the grill. Otherwise they could be temp-
ted into climbing onto the appliance.
 Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be
kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children
could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and
suffocate.
 Ensure that children cannot reach the drain tap where hot liquid
could be drained out.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
 A damaged grill can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs of
damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
 Reliable and safe operation of the grill can only be assured if it has
been connected to the mains electrical supply.
 The electrical safety of this grill can only be guaranteed when cor-
rectly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is
met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a
qualified electrician.
 Before connecting the grill to the mains supply, ensure that the
connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply.
This data must be checked before connecting the appliance. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
 Do not connect the grill to the mains electricity supply by a multi-
socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the re-
quired safety of the appliance (fire hazard).
 For safety reasons, this grill may only be used after it has been
built in.
 This grill must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
 Never open the casing of the grill.
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
 While the grill is under guarantee, repairs should only be under-
taken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guar-
antee is invalidated.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
 The grill is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote control system.
 If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is
supplied without a plug, the grill must be connected to the electrical
supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
 If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a suit-
ably qualified electrician with a special connection cable of type H
05 VV-F (pvc insulated). See "Electrical connection".
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the grill must be
completely disconnected from the mains electricity supply. Depend-
ing on country this is done in one of several different ways:
– disconnect the mains fuse, or
– completely unscrew the screw-out fuse (in countries where this is
applicable), or
– switch off at the wall socket and withdraw the plug from the
socket. Pull by the plug and not by the mains connection cable to
disconnect from the mains electricity supply.
 Danger of electric shock.
Do not use the grill if it is faulty. Switch it off immediately, disconnect
it from the mains electricity supply and contact Miele.
 If the grill is installed behind a furniture panel (e.g. a door), ensure
that the door is never closed whilst the grill is in use. Heat and mois-
ture can build up behind a closed furniture panel and cause sub-
sequent damage to the grill, the housing unit and the floor. Do not
close the door until the residual heat indicators have gone out.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
 The grill 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 the grill to heat up the room. Due to the high temperat-
ures radiated, objects left near the grill could catch fire.
 Overheated fat and oil , as well as residual food and fat residues
on the lava rocks can ignite and catch fire. Never leave the grill unat-
tended. Do not attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with water.
Switch the appliance off and carefully smother the flames with a fire
blanket or a damp tea towel
 Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do
not flambé under a cooker hood.
 Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the grill, as pressure will build up in the container which could
cause it to explode.
 Do not cover the grill, e.g. with a cover, a cloth or protective foil.
The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the appliance is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
 When the grill 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 grill heating up, with the danger of burning. Depend-
ing on the material, other items left on the appliance could also melt
or catch fire. Do not use the grill as a resting place. Switch the grill
off after use.
 You could burn yourself on the hot grill. 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 trans-
fer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the grill, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot
come into contact with the hot grill. The insulation on the cable could
become damaged.
 The heater element must be lowered before the grill is switched
on.
 A build-up of heat can cause damage to the rack. When grilling or
keeping food warm, do not use grill pans, griddles, saucepans or
similar on the open grill, and never cover the rack (e.g. with alu-
minium foil).
 The grill trough must always be filled with water when the grill is in
use.
 Where several CombiSets are installed side by side:
Hot objects can damage the seal of the cover strip between the ap-
pliances. Do not place hot pans near or on the cover strip.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
Cleaning and care
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this grill.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
 Lava rocks absorb the fat that drips down on them during grilling.
The darker they are, the more fat that is absorbed in them. Lava
rocks saturated with fat can catch fire easily. They should be cleaned
regularly and replaced in good time. See "Cleaning and Care".
Accessories
 Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this appliance.
Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will inval-
idate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Caring for the environment
12
Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufactur-
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appli-
ance
Electrical and electronic appliances of-
ten contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials, com-
pounds and components, which were
essential for their correct function and
safety. These could be hazardous to hu-
man 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 com-
munity waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic ap-
pliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also respons-
ible by law for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the appli-
ance being disposed of. Please ensure
that your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored prior to dis-
posal.

Operation
19
Prepare the grill
The grill can be used with or without the
lava rocks.
– Without the lava rocks the rising
steam keeps the food being grilled
moist.
– Grilling with the lava rocks creates a
particularly intensive aroma.
Check that the drain tap is closed.
Remove the rack (or racks, depend-
ing on model), lift up the heating ele-
ments, and if not being used, take the
lava rock container out of the grill
trough.
Fill the grill trough
– for grilling without lava rock fill up to
the  mark with
approx.2.5litres of water (CS1312)
approx.4.0 litres of water (CS1322).
– for grilling with lava rock add
approx.1.2litres of water (CS1312)
approx.1.8 litres of water ( CS1322).
Place the filled lava rock container in
the grill trough.
Lower the heating elements and
place the grill racks on top.

Operation
20
The grill has 2heating elements which
can be switched on and controlled in-
dependently. With smaller amounts grill
on the front section and then use the
back section for keeping food warm on
setting 3–4.
Switching on
Fire hazard.
Do not leave the appliance unatten-
ded whilst it is being used.
Turn the control clockwise or anti-
clockwise to the required power level.

Turn the control clockwise or anti-
clockwise to 0.
Grilling
When grilling make sure that there is
sufficient water in the grill trough. If
necessary, add more water.
Do not use grill pans, griddles,
saucepans or similar on the grill and
never cover the rack (e.g. with alu-
minium foil). The resulting build-up of
heat could damage the rack.
Turn one or both controls to setting
12. Pre-heat the grill with the rack in
position for approx. 10minutes.
