Technical safety
~Before installing the wok, check for
externally visible damage. Do not
operate a damaged appliance. A
damaged appliance is dangerous and
poses a safety hazard.
~The electrical safety of the induction
wok can only be guaranteed when
there is proper grounding that complies
with applicable safety regulations. It is
imperative that this basic safety
requirement be met.
In case of doubt, have the electrical
system checked by a qualified
electrician. Miele cannot be held liable
for damages resulting from an
inadequate grounding system (for
example, electric shock).
~Before installing the the wok, make
sure that the electrical rating (voltage
and frequency) shown on the data plate
corresponds to the electrical supply.
These ratings must match, in order to
avoid damaging the appliance. If in
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
~To ensure safe operation, use the
wok only after it has been properly
installed in place.
~Do not open the wok housing under
any circumstances.
Any contact with connections carrying
voltage, or changes in the electrical or
mechanical set-up, will endanger you
and may impair the functioning of the
wok.
~Installation, repair and maintenance
work should be performed by a Miele
authorized service technician.
Installation, maintenance or repair work
by unqualified persons could pose
serious risks to the user for which Miele
will not be held liable.
~When performing installation or
maintenance work or repairs, the wok
must be disconnected from the power
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electrical supply when one of
the following conditions is met:
–the circuit breaker in the electrical
panel is tripped,
– the plug fuse is removed from the
electrical panel,
– the power cable is disconnected
from the power supply.
Pull the plug, not the cord, to
disconnect the appliance from the
power supply.
~Repair of the induction wok during
the warranty period should be
performed only by a service technician
who is authorized by Miele; otherwise,
should damage result, it will not be
covered by the warranty.
~Defective components should be
replaced by Miele original spare parts
only. Only with these parts can Miele
guarantee the safety of the appliance.
Warning and safety instructions
5

~If the power cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a qualified
electrician with a special power cord
(type H 05 VV-F, PVC insulated), which
is available from Miele or from
Technical Service.
~The wok is not intended for use with
an external timer or a remote control
system.
~Do not connect the wok to the power
supply by a power bar or an extension
cord, as they do not ensure the
required safety of the appliance
(danger of overheating, for example).
~Do not use the induction wok if the
ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or
damaged in any way. Turn it off imme-
diately. Disconnect it from the power
supply. If you fail to follow these steps,
there is the danger of electric shock!
~If the plug is removed from the
power cord to hardwire the wok, it must
be installed and connected by a
qualified electrician. This should be
performed by a qualified electrician in
compliance with all local and national
codes, and requirements. Miele will not
be held liable for damages resulting
from improper installation or
connection.
Correct use
~Only for individuals with a
pacemaker:
Please note that an electromagnetic
field is generated in the immediate
vicinity of the wok when it is on. It is
unlikely that this will affect a
pacemaker.
However, if in doubt consult the
manufacturer of the pacemaker or your
doctor.
~Keep magnetized items, e.g. credit
cards, computer disks, calculators, etc.
away from the wok while in operation.
This may impair their function.
~Use only the wok pan supplied. For
safety reasons other wok pans should
not be used - fire hazard.
See chapter "Induction - Suitable pans".
~The wok is hot during use and
remains so for some time after being
turned off. There is a risk of burning
until the residual heat indicator has
switched off.
~Do not leave the wok unattended
while it is in use.
A wok pan that has boiled dry can
cause damage to the ceramic surface
for which Miele cannot be held liable.
Overheated oil or fat could ignite and
spark a fire.
~If hot fat or oil catches fire, NEVER
use water to douse the flames. Instead,
use a pot lid, wet dishtowel, or similar
item to smother the fire.
Warning and safety instructions
6

~Protect your hands when working
around the hot wok - wear
heat-resistant oven mitts and use
potholders, etc. Use only dry
potholders, make sure they are not
damp or wet, as this causes heat to
transfer through the material more
quickly with the risk of scalding or
burning yourself.
~Never flambé food under an exhaust
hood. The flames can set fire to the
exhaust hood.
~Do not use the induction wok as a
storage surface.
Above all, do not place any knives,
forks, spoons, etc., or other metallic
objects on it. If the wok is on or
accidentally turned on or there is
residual heat, metallic objects can heat
up and cause burns.
Other items may melt or catch fire.
Always turn the wok off after use!
~Installation of several units
Do not place hot pots or pans on the
spacing strips because they could
damage the seal of the spacing strip.
~Do not cover the wok, for example,
with a cover, a cloth or protective film. If
the wok is turned on by mistake or there
is residual heat there is a danger that
the material ignites, explodes or melts.
~Keep the wok clean. Grains of salt,
sugar or sand (for example, from
cleaning vegetables) can cause
scratches.
~NEVER place hot pots or pans near
the display. That could damage the
electronic unit underneath.
~Be careful that no objects or
cookware fall onto the ceramic surface.
Even a light object, such as a salt
shaker, can cause cracks and chips in
the ceramic surface.
~If you use an electric small
appliance, such as a hand mixer, in the
vicinity of the wok, make sure that the
power cord does not come into contact
with the hot wok. This could damage
the insulation on the cord. Danger of
electric shock.
~If sugar, sugary foods, plastic, or
aluminum foil fall onto the hot wok, turn
the appliance off. Remove these
materials immediately while they are
still hot, because if allowed to cool they
will damage the ceramic surface.
Take care not to burn yourself.
Clean the appliance when it has cooled
down.
~The wok is equipped with a cooling
fan. If there is a drawer directly
underneath the appliance, ensure that
there is sufficient space between the
drawer and its contents and the
underside of the appliance to ensure
adequate ventilation. Sharp or small
objects and paper may not be kept in
the drawer. These can penetrate or be
sucked into the housing through the
vents and damage the fan or impair
cooling.
Warning and safety instructions
7

~If there is a drawer below the wok,
do NOT store any spray cans,
flammable liquids, or other flammable
materials in the drawer. Cutlery trays
must be made of heat-resistant
material.
~Metallic objects, which are kept in a
drawer under the wok, can become hot
during prolonged, heavy use of the
appliance.
~Always cook food thoroughly.
Temperatures must be high enough,
and the cooking times long enough, to
kill any germs in the food.
~If the wok is built in behind a
panelled door, it should only be
operated with the door open.
Close the door only when the appliance
is shut off and the Residual Heat
indicators have gone out.
Miele cannot be held liable for
damage caused by failure to comply
with these safety instructions and
warnings.

Attach the data plate found in the
documents for your appliance in the
locations indicated in "Data Plate."
Initial cleaning
^Remove any adhering protective film
and stickers.
^Clean the appliance with a damp
cloth only and then wipe dry.
Do NOT use dishwashing liquid to
clean the induction wok, because this
can cause permanent blue
discolourations.
Start-up
When the induction wok is first
connected, and after a power failure, all
of the indicators in the display will light
up for approx. 1 second for testing
purposes. The appliance can be used
as soon as the indicators go out.
There may be a slight odour or haze the
first time the appliance is heated. Each
subsequent use reduces the odour and
it will ultimately dissipate entirely.
The smell and any vapours do not
indicate a faulty connection or a
defective appliance and are not harmful
to health.
Before using for the first time
10

How it works
An induction coil is located under the
burner. When the burner is switched
on, this coil creates a magnetic field
which impacts directly on the base of
the pan and heats it up. The burner
itself is heated indirectly by the heat
given off by the pan.
This appliance will only work properly
when the wok pan (supplied) is used
(see "Cookware").
The burner will not work:
–if it is switched on without the wok
pan in place.
– if the wok pan is taken off the burner
when it is switched on.
If this happens, ßwill flash in the
display.
If the wok pan is placed on the burner
within 3 minutes, the ßwill go out and
you can continue cooking as normal.
If the wok pan is not placed on the
burner, the burner and the combiset will
switch off automatically after 3 minutes.
0will flash alternately with Cin the
display.
To use the burner again as normal, first
turn the control knob to "0".
Be careful not to place cutlery or
other metal objects on the combiset.
When the appliance is switched on,
or when there is residual heat
present, there is the risk of metal
objects heating up quickly.
Beware of burns.
Depending on the material, other
objects left on the combiset could
also melt or catch fire.
Turn the burner off after use.

Noises
The following noises can occur when
the induction wok is in use.
–Higher power settings may cause a
buzz. This will decrease or cease
altogether when the power setting is
reduced.
–You may hear a clicking sound from
the electronic switches, especially on
lower settings.
The appliance has a cooling fan to help
extend the life of the electronics. When
the combiset is being used at high
levels for a long period of time, this will
come on and you will hear a whirring
sound. The fan may continue to run
after the appliance has been switched
off.
Cookware
Only the wok pan supplied should be
used with this appliance. The wok pan
is designed specifically for this
induction wok.

booster function to temporarily increase
the power level. When the Booster is
activated the burner will operate at
power level 9with an extra boost of
power for 10 minutes.
Taking the wok pan off the burner while
the booster is in operation interrupts the
booster function. It will resume if the
pan is placed back on the burner within
3 minutes.
If the wok reaches the maximum
temperature before the 10 minutes
has elapsed, the booster function
will switch off and the appliance will
resume at power level 9.

Overheating protection
The induction coils are fitted with an
overheating protection feature. This
prevents the induction coils from
overheating by:
–If the booster function is being used,
it will be switched off.
–If the temperature continues to rise
after the booster function is switched
off, the power level will be reduced.
–If the temperature still continues to
rise after the power level has been
reduced, the appliance will switch off
and an Hwill appear in the display.
^Turn the control knob to "0".
Once the Hhas gone out the combiset
can be used again as normal.
If the control knob is not turned back to
"0", Cand 0will flash in the display once
the burner has cooled. To use the
combiset again, first turn the control
knob to "0".
Overheating can be caused by:
–using the appliance for too long at
the maximum power level.
–insufficient ventilation to the
appliance.
If a drawer is installed directly under
the combiset, sufficient space must be
kept between the drawer and its
contents and the underside of the
appliance in order to ensure sufficient
ventilation of the appliance.
If the overheating protection feature
triggers again, contact Miele Technical
Service.
Safety features
17

,Do not use a steam cleaning
appliance to clean the induction
wok. The steam could reach the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Clean the whole appliance after every
use. First, let the appliance cool down.
Dry it after every damp cleaning; this
prevents limescale buildup.
To avoid damage to the surfaces do
not use any
–cleaning agents containing soda,
ammonia, alkaline, acid or chloride,
–limescale removers,
–spot and rust removers,
–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder or cream cleansers, pumice
stone,
–cleaners containing solvents,
–dishwasher detergent,
– barbecue and oven spray cleaners,
– glass cleaners,
– hard scouring brushes and sponges
(such as pot scrubbers) or used
sponges that still contain abrasive
residues.
– sharp objects
(they could damage the seals
between the frame and the
countertop).
Cleaning and care
18

Ceramic surfaces
Do not use dishwashing liquid for
cleaning. When cleaning with a
dishwashing liquid, not all
contaminants and residues are
removed. The result is an invisible
film, which leads to discolouration of
the ceramic surface. This
discolouration cannot be removed.
Clean the wok on a regular basis with
a special ceramic cleaner.
Remove coarse soiling with a damp
cloth. Stubborn soiling is best removed
with a glass scraper.
Next, clean the wok with the Miele
ceramic and stainless steel cleaner
(see "Optional accessories"), or a
commercial ceramic cleaner and paper
towel or a clean cloth. Do not apply
cleaner to a hot burner, since staining
can occur. Follow the instructions of the
cleaner manufacturer.
Finally, wipe the wok with a damp cloth
then dry it. Take care to remove all
cleaner residue. Residues will catch fire
and burn in later cooking and damage
the ceramic top.
Spots caused by limescale,water and
aluminum residues (spots with a
metallic appearance) can be removed
using the ceramic and stainless steel
cleaner.
Should sugar, plastic, or aluminum
foil fall onto the hot wok, turn the
appliance off. Scrape these substances
immediatelythoroughly from the
surface while it is still hot, using a glass
scraper. Be careful, as you might get
burned.
Then, when the wok has cooled down,
clean it as described above.
Stainless steel
Use a ceramic and stainless steel
cleaner to clean stainless steel surfaces
(see "Optional accessories").
Apply with an even pressure following
the direction of the "grain".
To help prevent rapid resoiling, we
recommend using a stainless steel
conditioner (see "Optional
accessories").
Apply sparingly using a soft cloth.
Do not use stainless steel cleaner on
or around the printing. This would
rub off the printing. Use only a soft
sponge with some dish liquid and
warm water to clean this area.
Cleaning and care
