quirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal in-
jury and material damage.
Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before
using the wok. They contain important information on safety, in-
stallation, use, and maintenance. This prevents both personal in-
jury and damage to the wok.
Miele expressly and strongly advises that you read and follow the
instructions in the chapter on installing the wok as well as in the
“IMPORTANT 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY

ronments.
 This wok is not intended for outdoor use.
 This wok is intended for domestic use only to cook food and keep
it warm. All other types of use are not permitted.
 This wok can only be used by people with reduced physical, sen-
sory, or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they are supervised while using it. They may only use it unsupervised

Safety with children
 Do not leave children unattended: Children should not be alone or
unsupervised in the area where the appliance is installed. Do not al-
low them to sit or stand on the appliance.
 Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the wok. Never al-
low children to play with the wok.

after being switched off. Keep children well away from the wok until
it has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.
 Danger of burning. Do not store anything which might spark a
child’s interest in storage areas above or behind the wok. Otherwise
they could be tempted to climb onto the wok.
 Risk of burning or scalding. Turn pot and pan handles inward, so
children cannot pull them down and be burned.
 Danger of suffocation. While playing, children may become entan-
gled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over

Technical safety
 Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been in-
stalled correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified techni-
cian.
 Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work should only be performed by a qualified technician.
 Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.
 Damage to the wok can compromise your safety. Check the wok
for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged wok.
 Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronized with
the grid power supply (e.g., island networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply sys-
tem complies with national and local codes.
The function and operation of the protective measures provided in
the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must
also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply, or these measures must be
replaced by equivalent measures in the installation.
 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly grounded. It is essential that this basic safety require-
ment is fulfilled. If in doubt, the electrical installation should be
checked by a qualified electrician.
 The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the wok must match the domestic electrical supply in order to avoid
the risk of damage to the wok.
Compare this data before connecting the appliance. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9
 Power bars and extension cords do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (risk of fire). Do not use these to connect the
wok to the domestic electrical supply.
 For safety reasons, this wok may only be used after it has been
built in.
 This wok must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g., on a
ship).
 Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the wok will endanger your safety and
may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Do not open the wok housing under any circumstances.
 While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a service technician authorized by Miele Customer Ser-
vice. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
 Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as
intended by the manufacturer.
 The wok is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote-control system.
 The connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a suit-
ably qualified and competent person in accordance with current lo-
cal and national safety regulations. If the electrical plug has been re-
moved or the power cord is not supplied with an electrical plug, the
wok must be connected to the power supply by a qualified electri-
cian.
 If the power cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by a quali-
fied service technician (see “Installation–Electrical connection”).
 During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the wok must
be completely disconnected from the domestic electrical supply. The
gas inlet valve must be closed. It is only completely isolated from the
supply when:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
- The breakers have been switched off.
- The screw-out breakers have been completely removed.
- The electrical plug (if present) is removed from the socket. To do
this, pull the plug, not the power cord.
- The gas inlet valve is closed.
 Danger of electric shock.
Do not use the wok if it is damaged or if it suffers damage during
use. Switch it off immediately. Disconnect it from the power and gas
supply. Contact Miele Customer Service.
 If the wok is built in behind a cabinet front (e.g., a door), do not
close the door while the wok is in use. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the cabinet front when closed. This can result in damage
to the wok, the housing unit, and the floor. Do not close the cabinet
front until the residual-heat indicators go out.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
Correct use
 Keep the wok and the area around it clear and free from com-
bustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapours and liq-
uids.
 Wind can blow curtains over the wok, causing them to catch fire.
If the wok is installed near a window, do not use long curtains.
 Only certain types of glass, ceramic or other enamel cookware
can be used on a gas wok without breaking as a result of sudden
temperature changes.
 Fire hazard! Loose-fitting or hanging garments can catch fire. Be
sure to wear appropriately fitting clothing when cooking. Never allow
loose clothing or flammable materials to come into contact with the
burners while the burners are in use.
 When you have finished cooking, make sure that the burners are
turned off by checking the position of the knobs.
 The grates, burner cap, bottom parts of the burner, and any other
parts located near the burner flame can still be very hot after cooking
and cause burns. Do not touch these components when using the
wok.
 Ensure that the igniters are clean and dry to allow the burners to
ignite and burn properly.
 Wet sponges or cloths can cause burns due to hot steam if they
are used to wipe spilled food off a hot wok. Some cleaning agents
can emit hazardous vapors if they are applied to a hot surface. Be
careful when cleaning the wok.
WARNING
NEVER use this wok as a space heater to heat or warm the room.
Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheat-
ing of the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12
 Never leave the appliance unattended at high heat settings–
Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
 Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires–Smother fire or flame or use
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
 An air curtain or other overhead range hood, which operates by
blowing a downward airflow onto an appliance, shall not be used in
conjunction with the appliance.
 The wok gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while
after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the resid-
ual-heat indicators go out.
 Oils and fats are a fire hazard if allowed to overheat. Never leave
the wok unattended when cooking with oil or fats. Never attempt to
put out oil or grease fires with water. Switch the wok off.
Extinguish the flames carefully with a lid or fire blanket.
 The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on fire.
Do not flambé under a ventilation hood.
 Spray canisters, aerosols, and other inflammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore do not store such items or substances
in a drawer under the wok. Utensil inserts must be heat-resistant.
 Never heat empty cookware.
 Canning food and heating it up in closed containers results in an
increase in pressure which can cause them to explode. Do not use
the wok for canning food or for heating up food in cans.
 If the wok is covered, there is a risk that the material of the cover
will ignite, explode, or melt if the wok is still hot or if it is turned on in-
advertently. Never cover the wok with a cover, cloth, or protective
film.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
13
 If the appliance is switched on by mistake, or if there is residual
heat present, there is the risk of any metal items placed on the wok
heating up. Other materials can melt or catch fire when the appliance
is switched on. Do not use the wok as a resting place for anything.
 You could burn yourself on the hot wok. Protect your hands with
heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot items. Do not
let them get wet or damp. Heat transfers through damp and wet ma-
terial more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself. En-
sure 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.
 When using an electrical appliance (e.g., a hand mixer) near the
wok, make sure that the power cord does not come into contact with
the hot wok. The cord’s insulation could become damaged.
 Cookware made of plastic or aluminum foil will melt at high tem-
peratures. Do not use any plastic or aluminum foil cookware.
 Pressing the knob generates a spark on the ignitor. Do not press
the knob while you are cleaning or touching the wok or a burner in
the vicinity of an ignitor.
 A ventilation hood installed above the wok can become damaged
or catch fire as a result of intense heat. Do not use the wok burner
without cookware.
 Only light the burners after all burner parts have been properly as-
sembled.
 If the cookware is too small, it will not sit properly on the burner
grate. If the cookware is too large, heat emitted from the bottom of
the cookware may damage the countertop, walls with poor heat-re-
sistance (e.g. paneled walls) or portions of the cooktop.
 Make sure that the burner flames do not extend beyond the bot-
tom of the cookware and rise up its sides.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
14
 Only use cookware with a thick enough bottom. Failure to do so
may result in damage to the cooktop.
 Always use the burner grates supplied with the cooktop. Never
place cookware directly on the burner.
 Install the burner grates in an upright position to avoid scratching
the cooktop.
 Remove all grease splatters and other combustible (food) residues
on the wok. They are a fire hazard.
 Avoid allowing liquids or foods containing salt to spill onto the
cooktop. If salty foods or liquids do get on the cooktop, they should
be removed as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.
 Using a wok causes heat, moisture, and products of combustion
to build up in the room in which it is installed. Make sure that your
kitchen is well ventilated, especially when the appliance is in use.
Keep any natural means of ventilation open or install a mechanical
ventilation system (e.g., a ventilation hood).
 If the wok is used for very long periods of time, additional ventila-
tion of the room may be necessary, e.g., by opening windows or
doors, or running the ventilation on the highest setting.
 If the wok has not been used for a long period of time, be sure to
thoroughly clean it and have it inspected by an authorized technician
before using it again.
 Where several ProLine elements are installed side by side:
Hot objects can damage the seal of the spacer bar. Do not place hot
pans near or on the spacer bar.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
15
Cleaning and maintenance
 The steam from a steam cleaner could reach live electrical com-
ponents and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the wok.
 Miele will guarantee to supply functional parts for a minimum of
10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of your
ProLine element.
