Safety with children
Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the

Technical safety
Installation, maintenance and repair work should only be
performed by a Miele authorized service technician. Installation,
maintenance and repair work by unqualified persons can cause
considerable danger to users.
A damaged cooktop can be dangerous. Always check for visible
signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the cooktop can only be
guaranteed if it is connected to the public power supply.
The electrical safety of this cooktop can only be guaranteed when
it is properly grounded. Compliance with this essential safety
requirement is absolutely necessary. If in any doubt, please have the
building's electrical system checked by a qualified electrician.
To avoid damaging the cooktop, make sure that the connection
data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the
building's power supply before connecting the appliance.
When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The cooktop may only be combined with the ovens specified by
Miele. The manufacturer cannot guarantee trouble-free operation if
the cooktop is used in combination with any other appliances. Doing
so will void the warranty.
For safety reasons, the cooktop may only be used when it has
been fully installed.
This cooktop must not be used in non-stationary locations (e.g. on
a ship).
Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the cooktop will endanger your safety
and may lead to cooktop malfunctions.
Do not open the casing of the cooktop under any circumstances.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
8
Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorized service
technician will void the warranty.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance if genuine
Miele spare parts are used. Defective components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele spare parts.
The appliance is not intended for use with an external timer switch
or a remote control system.
The cooktop must be connected to the oven by a qualified
electrician (see "Electrical connection").
During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the cooktop
must be completely disconnected from the household electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– The main circuit breaker has been tripped, or
– The plug fuses have been fully unscrewed (where applicable).
Danger of electric shock!
Do not use the cooktop if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is
cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately.
Disconnect the cooktop from the electrical power supply. Contact
Miele Technical Service.
If the cooktop is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the cooktop is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door. This can result in damage to the cooktop,
cabinet carcase, and floor. Do not close the door until the residual
heat indicators go out.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Proper use
The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while
after being turned off. A burn hazard is present until the residual heat
indicators go out.
When in use, the cooktop emits a significant amount of heat,
which could cause objects in the vicinity to catch fire.
Never use the cooktop to heat the room.
Oil and fat can catch fire if overheated. Never leave the cooktop
unattended when cooking with oil and fat. If the oil or fat catches
fire, do not attempt to put the flames out with water.
Turn off the cooktop and smother the flames using a lid or a suitable
fire blanket.
The flames could set the grease filters of a ventilation hood on fire.
Do not flambé under a hood.
Spray canisters, aerosols and other flammable substances can
ignite when heated. Therefore, do not store such items or
substances in a drawer under the cooktop. Any cutlery inserts must
be heat-resistant.
Never heat empty cookware.
Do not heat or can food in closed containers, such as tins or
sealed jars, on the cooktop, as pressure will build up in the container
and cause it to explode.
If the cooktop is covered, there is a risk that the material of the
cover will ignite, explode or melt if the cooktop is still hot or if it is
turned on inadvertently. Never cover the appliance with a cover,
cloth or protective foil.
If the cooktop is on or accidentally turned on, or if it is still hot,
metal objects on the cooktop can heat up. Other items may melt or
catch fire. Damp lids can become attached to the cooktop by
suction. Do not store items on the cooktop. Always turn the burners
off after use.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

You can burn yourself on a hot cooktop. When cooking on the
cooktop, protect your hands by using heat-resistant pot holders or
oven mitts. Only use dry pot holders and oven mitts. Wet or damp
textiles conduct heat more effectively and produce steam, which
poses a burn hazard.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand mixer, near the
cooktop, make sure that the power cable does not come into
contact with the hot cooktop. The cable's insulation could become
damaged.
Grains of salt, sugar and sand (e.g. from cleaning vegetables) can
cause scratches if they get onto pan bottoms. Make sure that the
ceramic surface and pan bottom are clean before placing any pans
on the cooktop.
Even light objects (such as a salt shaker) can cause damage to
the ceramic cooktop in certain circumstances. Do not drop anything
on the ceramic surface.
Hot objects on the residual heat indicators can cause damage to
the electronics underneath. Do not place hot pans in these areas.
Do not allow solid or liquid sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminum
foil, to get on the cooktop when it is hot, as they can damage the
ceramic surface when it cools down. If this should occur, turn off the
appliance immediately and scrape off all the sugar, plastic or
aluminum residues while still hot using a scraper blade. Wear oven
mitts when doing so. Allow the burners to cool down and clean them
with a suitable ceramic cleaning agent.
Pans that boil dry can damage the ceramic surface. Never leave
the cooktop unattended during use.
Pots and pans with rough bottoms can scratch the ceramic
surface. Only use pots and pans that are smooth on the bottom.
Lift pans into position on the cooktop. Sliding them into place can
cause scuff marks and scratches.
