Warning and Safety instructions
12

Safety with children
~This appliance is only intended for
use by adults who have read these
instructions. This appliance is not a toy!
To avoid the risk of injury keep children
well away and do not let them play with
it or use the controls. They will not
understand the potential dangers
posed by it. They should be supervised

Warning and Safety instructions
13

Technical safety
~Installation, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
~Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Under no circumstances should you
use a damaged appliance. A damaged
appliance may be dangerous.
~Before connecting the appliance to
the mains electricity supply, make sure
that the voltage and frequency
correspond to the rating on the data
plate, otherwise the appliance could be
damaged. Consult a qualified
electrician if in any doubt.
~The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with current 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.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~The connection to the gas supply
must be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent person in strict
accordance with local and national
safety regulations, e.g. a Corgi
registered service technician in the
U.K. If the appliance is supplied without
a plug, or if the plug is removed, it must
be connected to the mains electricity
supply by a suitably qualified and
competent electrician in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by incorrect
installation or connection.
~For safety reasons, this appliance
may only be used when it has been
built in.
~Never open the housing of the
appliance.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operational faults.
~If the connection cable is damaged,
it must be replaced by a suitably
qualified electrician with a specialist
connection cable of type H 05 VV-F
(pvc insulated), available from the Miele
Spare Parts Department.
Warning and Safety instructions
14

~Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
~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 fuse is disconnected,
–the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn from the
socket, or
– it is switched off at the isolator.
~Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
~In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the guarantee.
Correct use
~The appliance is hot when in use,
and remains hot for quite a while after
being switched off. Do not touch it
whilst it could still be hot.
~For added protection, it is advisable
to use heat-resistant pot holders or
gloves when using the appliance.
Ensure that they do not come into
contact with the flames. Do not use
large cloths, tea towels or similar as the
ends could touch the flames and catch
fire. Take care not to let the gloves get
damp or wet, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more
quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
~Do not heat up unopened tins of
food on the hob as pressure will build
up in the tin, causing it to explode. This
could result in injury and scalding or
damage.
~Do not use the appliance to heat up
the room. Due to the high temperatures
radiated, objects near the appliance
could catch fire. The life of the
appliance could also be reduced.
~This appliance must not be set up or
operated in the open air.
~Make sure all the components of the
gas burners have been correctly
assembled before switching on.
Warning and Safety instructions
15

~Pans must be the correct size for the
burner they are used on (see "Suitable
Pans"). A pan which is too small will be
unstable on the pan support. If the pan
diameter is too large, flames can
spread out to the sides and damage or
burn the worktop, wall claddings or
surrounding units and also parts of the
hob. The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for this type of damage.
~Do not use pans that are large
enough to cover more than one burner.
The resulting build-up of heat could
damage the appliance.
~Ensure that the flames from the
burner do not spread out beyond the
base and up the sides of the pan.
~If a cooker hood is installed above
the gas hob, ensure that the burners
are always covered with a pan when in
use. Otherwise flames could reach the
cooker hood, parts of which could then
be damaged or even set on fire.
~Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at high
temperatures, and could catch fire.
~The pan support supplied with the
appliance must always be used. Never
place a pan on the burner itself.
~Do not store any inflammable
objects near the gas hob.
~Do not use the appliance as a
resting place for anything else. The
article could melt or catch fire if
residual heat is still present or if the
appliance is switched on by mistake.
~Do not cover the appliance, e.g.
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could
be a fire hazard if the appliance is
switched on by mistake.
~Remove splashes of fat and other
food debris from the surface as soon as
possible. These are a fire hazard.
~Never leave the appliance
unattended when cooking with oil or fat
as these are fire hazards if overheated.
Very hot oil can catch fire and could
even set a cooker hood above on fire.
Always heat fat slowly, watching as it
heats.
~If oil or fat catches fire, do not
attempt to put out the flames with water.
Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan
lid, damp towel or similar to smother the
flames.
~Do not flambé under a cooker hood.
The flames could set the cooker hood
on fire.
~Unless the pan manufacturer states
that you can do so, do not use pans
with very thin bases on this hob, and
never heat up empty pans as they
could get damaged. This could also
damage the appliance.
~Avoid allowing liquids or foods
containing salt to spill onto the hob. If
salty foods or liquids do get on the hob,
they should be removed as soon as
possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.
Warning and Safety instructions
16

~Replace the pan supports carefully
to avoid scratching the surface of the
hob.
~Using the gas hob will cause a
build-up of heat and moisture in the
room in which it is installed. Ensure that
the room has sufficient natural or
mechanical means of ventilation, e.g.
an extractor.
~If the hob is used for very long
periods of time, additional ventilation of
the room may be necessary, e.g. by
opening windows or doors, or running
the extractor on the highest setting.
~When using an electric socket near
the appliance, care should be taken
that the cable of the electrical
appliance does not come into contact
with the hot appliance. The insulation
on the cable could become damaged,
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
~Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking
time, including the size and quantity of
the food and its temperature.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. Therefore, when cooking or
reheating food such as poultry, it is
particularly important that the food is
completely cooked through. If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
~Spray canisters, aerosols and other
inflammable substances must not be
stored in a drawer under the hob.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
~Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
this appliance.
The steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
Pressurised steam could also cause
permanent damage to the surface and
to other components, for which the
manufacturer cannot accept liability.
~If the appliance has not been used
for a longer period of time it should be
thoroughly cleaned before it is used
again. It is also advisable to have the
appliance tested for safety.
~While the appliance is under
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.
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.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure that they
are recycled.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of it
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be disconnected from the
mains electricity and gas supplies by a
competent person.
