set precisely to power level 12.
If the knobs are not set to the exact
position, the heating will not work with
maximum power.
^Set the power level.
^Grill food as desired.
Tips
–To minimize splattering, dry moist
foods with paper towels before
grilling.
–Marinate food before grilling, to
enhance the flavors.
–To prevent sticking non-marinated
items should be brushed lightly with
oil before grilling. Only use oils that
can tolerate high temperatures.
–You can shorten the grilling time for
potatoes in foil and corn on the cob,
by pre-cooking the potatoes for
approx. 15 - 40 minutes (depending
on the size) and the corn for approx.
10 - 15 minutes.
After grilling
^Turn the appliance off.
^After each use, clean the appliance
while it is still somewhat warm to the
touch (see "Cleaning and care").
^After grilling with the lava rocks
check the condition of the rocks. If

,Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this
appliance. Pressurized steam could
cause permanent damage to the
surface and to components for
which the manufacturer cannot
accept responsibility.
Never use strong cleaners e.g. oven
sprays, stain or rust removers.
Scouring pads and abrasive
cleaning agents should only be
used on the heating element.
Do not use any sharp pointed
objects which could damage the
seal between the ceramic surface
and the surrounding frame, and
between the frame and the
countertop.
When using cleaning agents for
stainless steel always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions on the
packaging.
After cleaning use a soft, dry cloth to
remove any moisture. This way you
will prevent the build up of limescale
deposits.
Stainless steel
Clean stainless steel surfaces with
warm water and liquid dish soap
applied with a non-abrasive sponge
and then wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Soak baked or hardened spills first to
loosen them.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner
for stainless steel can also be used.
Apply sparingly with even pressure.
Do not use stainless steel cleaner on
or around the printing, it may rub
off. Use only a soft sponge with
some dish liquid and warm water to
clean this area.
Grates and lava rock container
After each use, clean the grates and
lava rock container with warm water
and liquid dish soap. Pre-soak any
heavy soiling, then remove with a
brush. Dry throughly.

To do so, put the rocks in a container
with mild solution of warm water and
liquid dish soap. Let them soak briefly,
stirring occasionally. Drain water and
rinse rocks. Repeat this process 2 to 3
times with fresh water. Lay the rocks on
a large kitchen towel to dry.
Clean the pumice stones to remove
the used layer. The stones will wear
down depending on how often they
are used.
Once the volume in the pumice
stone container has fallen by half, it
will need to be re-filled.
Water trough
^Let the water cool to a safe
temperature to prevent burns.
^Place a container (large enough to
hold all water in the trough) under the
drain valve.
^Slowly open the drain valve by
turning it counterclockwise,a.
^Once the water has drained, close
the drain valve by turning it
clockwise,buntil the water flow
stops.

Installation Instructions
IMPORTANT: SAVE FOR THE LOCAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTOR'S USE
To prevent accidents
and machine damage
read these instructions
before
installation or use.

Note to the installer:
Please leave this instruction book
with the consumer for the local
electrical inspector’s use.
The minimum distances given in
these Installation Instructions must
be observed in order to ensure safe
operation. Failure to do so increases
the risk of fire.
The cabinetry and venting hood
should be installed first to prevent
damage to the appliance.
~The countertop must be bonded
with heat resistant (212 °F/100 °C)
adhesive to prevent distortion or
dissolving.
The wall strips must be heat-resistant
as well.
~To eliminate the risk of burns or fire
by reaching over heated surfaces
cabinet storage space above the
appliance should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is necessary, the risk can be
reduced by installing a venting hood to
project horizontally a minimum of 5"
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of the
cabinets.
~This appliance has not been
designed for maritime use or for use in
mobile installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
installation in these applications. Please
contact the Miele Technical Service
Department with specific requirements.
~The grill must not be installed
directly next to the CS 1421
(Salamander). It is essential to maintain
a distance of at least 5 7/8" (150 mm)
between these two appliances.
~You must ensure the power cable
for the appliance will not come under
any mechanical strain once installed
e.g., while the water is draining.
~Be sure that after installation the
power cord does not come into contact
with any parts of the appliance which
may become hot.
~The appliance must not be
permanently sealed into the countertop
when installed. The sealing strip under
the edge of the appliance provides a
sufficient seal for the countertop. See
