Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised 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
supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised
with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems)
is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply
system complies with the specifications of EN50160 or an
equivalent standard.
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
synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must
be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described,
for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001–2 ISO
45001.
 The electrical safety of this wok can only be guaranteed when
correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement
is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by
a registered electrical worker.
 To avoid the risk of damage to the wok, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains. Consult a
registered electrical worker if in doubt.
 Do not connect the wok to the mains electricity supply by a multi-
socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (fire hazard).
 For safety reasons, this wok may only be used after it has been
built in.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 This wok must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
ship).
 Never open the casing of the wok.
Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
 While the wok is under warranty repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty is invalidated.
 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty
components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
 The wok is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote control system.
 If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special mains connection cable by a qualified electrician (see
“Electrical connection” in the “Installation” chapter).
 Connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a registered
gas installer. The wok may be connected to the electrical supply by a
fused plug and switched socket. If you wish to connect it to a fused
spur connection, or if the plug has been removed or the connection
cable is not supplied with a plug, the hob must be connected to the
mains supply by a registered electrical worker.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the hob must be
disconnected from the mains electricity supply. The gas supply must
also be shut off. Depending on territory this is done in one of several
different ways:
- the mains fuse has been disconnected, or
- the screw-out fuse is removed (if 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.
- the gas inlet valve is closed.
 Danger of electric shock!
Do not use the hob if it is faulty. Shut off the gas supply and contact
Miele.
 If the wok is built in behind a furniture front (e.g. a door), do not
close the door while the wok is in use. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door. This can result in damage to the wok, the
housing unit and the floor. Leave the furniture door open until the
wok has cooled down completely.
 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
Correct use
 The wok 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 wok to heat up the room.
Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the wok
could catch fire.
 Overheated fat and oil can ignite and catch fire. Never leave the
wok unattended. Do not attempt to extinguish burning oil or fat with
water.
Switch the wok off and carefully smother the flames with a fire
blanket or a damp tea towel.
 Do not leave the wok unattended whilst it is being used. It should
be continually monitored whilst boiling and flash frying.
 Flames could set the grease filters of a cooker hood on fire. Do
not flambé under a cooker 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. Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
 Do not heat an empty pan.
 Do not heat up food in closed containers e.g. tins or sealed jars
on the wok, as pressure will build up in the container which could
cause it to explode.
 Do not cover the wok, 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.
 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
(e.g. cutlery) heating up. Other materials can melt or catch fire. Do
not use the appliance as a resting place for anything.

Warning and Safety instructions
13
 You could burn yourself on the hot wok. 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
transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself on steam. Be sure to keep all textiles away from the
gas flames. Do not use oversized cloths, tea towels or other similar
materials.
 When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the wok, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot
come into contact with the hot wok. The insulation on the cable
could become damaged.
 Plastic and aluminium foil containers melt at high temperatures.
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil containers.
 When a control knob is pressed down, a spark is generated on the
ignitor. Do not press down the control knob while you are cleaning or
touching the wok or a burner in the vicinity of an ignitor.
 A cooker hood installed above the wok can be 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
assembled.
 Pans must be the correct size for the burner they are used on (see
„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. Miele cannot be held
liable for this type of damage.
 Ensure that the flames from the burner do not spread out beyond
the base and up the sides of the pan.

Warning and Safety instructions
14
 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.
 The pan support supplied with the appliance must always be
used. Never place a pan on the burner itself.
 Replace the pan supports carefully to avoid scratching the
surface.
 Do not use or store flammable materials near this appliance.
 Remove all grease spatters and other combustible (food) residues
from the wok burner as soon possible. They are a fire hazard.
 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.
 The use of the wok creates heat, moisture and combustion
products in the room where it is installed. Make sure that the
appliance is installed in a location with sufficient ventilation. Natural
ventilation openings should not be blocked. Alternatively, a
mechanical ventilation device (e.g. a cooker hood) can be installed.
 Prolonged intensive use of the wok may require additional
ventilation of the room, e.g., by opening a window, or by operating
the cooker hood on a higher setting.
 If the wok 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 it tested by registered gas installer for safety. This should be
done at regular intervals.
 Where several ProLine elements are installed side by side:
Hot objects can damage the seal on the spacer bars. Do not place
hot pans near or on the spacer bar.

Warning and Safety instructions
15
Cleaning and care
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this wok.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
 Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the
discontinuation of your ProLine element.

Caring for the environment
16
Disposing of the packaging
material
The packaging material is used for
handling and protects the appliance
from transport damage. The packaging
material used is selected from materials
which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material
reduces the use of raw materials. Use
material-specific collection points for
valuable materials and take advantage
of return options. Your Miele dealer will
take the packaging material away.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human 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
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible (by law, depending on
territory) for deleting any personal data
that may be stored on the appliance
being disposed of. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored prior to
disposal.
