warm. Any other use is not supported by the manufacturer and could
be dangerous.
 People with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge who are not able to use the hob
safely on their own must be supervised whilst using it. They may
only use it unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely
and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect
operation.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children
 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the hob
unless they are constantly supervised.
 Children 8 years and older may only use the hob unsupervised if
they have been shown how to use it in a safe way and can recognise
and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
 Children must not be allowed to clean the hob unsupervised.
 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the hob and do not let

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.
 Do not lift or carry the Range Cooker by the oven door handle or
control panel.
 Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check
the hob for visible signs of damage.
 Reliable and safe operation of this hob can only be assured if it
has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 The electrical safety of the Range Cooker can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested regularly. If in doubt, consult a
suitably qualified electrician.
 Before connecting the Range Cooker to the mains supply, ensure
that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency)
match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in
order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance.
Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
 Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (fire hazard). Do not use these to
connect the Range Cooker to the mains electricity supply.
 For safety reasons, this hob may only be used after it has been
built in.
 This Range Cooker must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the Range Cooker will endanger your
safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Do not open the Range Cooker housing under any circumstances.
 While the hob 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 connection to the gas supply must be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with current
local and national safety regulations (GasSafe in the UK).
If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is
supplied without a plug, the Range Cooker must be connected to
the electrical supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
 During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven
lighting is faulty (see "Problem solving guide"), the Range Cooker
must be completely disconnected from the household electricity
supply.). The gas inlet valve must be closed To ensure this:
– disconnect the mains fuse, or
– completely unscrew the screw-out fuse (in countries where this is
applicable), or
– switch off at the isolator switch, or switch off at the wall socket
and withdraw the plug. Do not pull on the cable, but pull the plug
instead in order to do this.
– Close the gas inlet valve.
