Warning:
When using your cooktop, follow
basic safety precautions including
the following:
Store all toys away from the unit to
prevent injury to curious or playful
children.
Read all instructions before using
the cooktop.
Please remember that, in use, the
burners will become hot. Ensure
that children do not touch them.
Use the cooktop only for its in-
tended purpose.
Do not store items on the cooktop
when not in use.
Be sure your appliance is properly
installed and grounded by a quali-
fied technician or electrician.

flammable materials accumulate
on the cooktop.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by removing the fuse
or tripping the circuit breaker.
Never leave the unit unattended
when cooking with oil or fat. Very
hot oil can cause a fire.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed
Allow sufficient time for the burners
to cool before touching or expos-
ing surface areas to flammable ma-
terials.
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective ground-
ing system. It is imperative that this
basic safety requirement is met. If there
is any doubt, have the electrical system
of the house checked by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for damage
If cracks or crevices appear in the
burners, immediately turn off the
cooktop and contact the Miele Service
Department or your local service dealer.
caused by the lack or inadequacy of
an effective grounding system.
Avoid spilling liquids or food con-
taining salt on a stainless steel
cooktop. Should this happen, wipe up
any spills immediately. Otherwise disco-
loration of the steel could occur.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using
an extension cord. Extension cords do
not guarantee the required safety of
the appliance.

them periodically.
Always position the handle of the
cookware toward the center of the
range to minimize burns, and spillage.
Disposal of an old appliance
Before removing pots and pans,
be sure to turn the cooktop ”OFF“.
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance, turn it off at the main
power connection and disconnect and
remove the appliance cord. This is in-
tended to prevent the discarded ap-
pliance from becoming a hazard.
Always heat oil slowly, so it doesn’t
bubble over.
When frying foods, make sure that
the food is as dry as possible to
prevent moisture from causing hot oil to
bubble over.
Text highlighted in boxes is of par-
ticular importance and should be
read in conjunction with the Warn-
ing and Safety instructions.
When shallow or deep frying, do
not overfill the pan with oil.
Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
or hanging garments should never
be worn while using the appliance.
Do not attempt to repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in this ma-
nual. All other servicing should be re-
fered to a qualified technician.

Burner description
Burner description
Safety thermostat
All burners are equipped with safety
thermostats that prevent them from
overheating.
The thermostats may trip
. . . if unsuitable cooking pots are used.
For example, pots with uneven bases
or which are too small.
. . . when burners are used without a
pot or pan.
10
Burner operation
Burner operation
Place a pan on the burner before
turning on the appliance. This will
protect the burner and save energy.
The surface of the burner and the base
of the pan should be clean and dry.
Turning on the burners
Turn the control knob to the maximum
setting for 1-2 minutes to allow the bur-
ners to rapidly heat up. Once hot, turn
the control knob to the desired cooking
setting, using the table on the previous
page as a guide.
After cooking
The burners will remain hot for some
time after being turned off.
By turning the burners off early, the re-
sidual heat of the burner can be used
to continue cooking the food or keep-
ing it warm.
Do not place any wet objects on the
burners. If the burners get wet,
wipe off the moisture and turn them
on briefly so they dry.
This will prevent rust from forming.
11
Burner operation
Pot size
The following tips are designed to en-
able you to
. . . make the best use of energy when
using your cooktop.
. . . prevent food from boiling over and
burning onto the cooktop.
Saucepan bases
The diameter of the pot should be
slightly larger than the burner.
Burner
diameter
(in inches / cm)
suitable
pot diameter
(in inches / cm)
5-3/4 14.5
7-1/8 18.0
6-5/16 16
7-7/8 20
Pot lids
For optimum energy consumption dur-
ing cooking, only pots with flat or
slightly concave bases should be
used. When the pot is hot, the base
should rest evenly on the burner.
When purchasing new pots and pans,
ensure that they are suitable for use on
this type of cooktop.
A lid on the pot will prevent heat from
being lost.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning and care
To prevent spills from burning on to the
Cooktop surface
cooktop, clean the burners and cook-
top surface immediately in the event of
a spill.
Avoid spilling liquids or foods con-
taining salt onto the stainless steel
cooktop. Should this occur, wipe up
any spills immediately.
Otherwise discoloration of the steel
could occur.
Burners
Make sure no moisture or soil pene-
trates inside the burners. Wipe off any
spilt food with a damp cloth once the
burners have cooled. Use a plastic
scouring pad if necessary for stubborn
spills. The burners can be scoured, but
not the rim or cooktop surface.
Remove dust, oils and fats, food spills
or condensed water from pots and
pans immediately to prevent them from
drying on. Dried-on food residues are
easier to remove if they are first soft-
ened with hot water.
Remove any residue from the burners
after cleaning.
Clean the cooktop surface using hot
water and dishwashing liquid.
To dry the burners turn them on for
a short time.
It is important that they are dry in
order to prevent rust from forming.
Do not use scouring agents or
pads, knives or hard brushes.
These will scratch the surface of the
cooktop.
Occasional treatment with a thin film of
oil, or a special cleaner for solid burner
plates is recommended.
Do not use cleaners containing
acids. A stainless steel cleaner can
be used on the cooktop surface.
Burner trim
Control panel / Control knobs
Do not use abrasive cleaners to
clean the trim. Clean the trim using
an appropriate metal or stainless
steel cleaner.
Do not use any scouring agents or
pads on the knobs or control panel.
Clean the cooktop controls and control
panel with hot water and dishwashing
liquid.
After cleaning, rub dry with a soft cloth.
