    “Installation”, as well as in the “Warning and Safety instructions”. Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non- compliance with these instructions. Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any...
  • Page 5 This cooktop is not suitable for outdoor use.  It is intended only to cook food and keep it warm. Any other use is not supported by Miele and could be dangerous.  This cooktop is not intended for use by people (including children)
  • Page 6 Warning and Safety instructions Safety with children  Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.  Older children may only use the appliance if its operation has been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely. They must be aware of the potential dangers caused by incorrect operation.
  • Page 7 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs (including removal of any cover) can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.  Damage to the cooktop can compromise your safety. Check the appliance for visible signs of damage.
  • Page 8  If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special mains connection cable, available from Miele, by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably qualified and competent electrician in order to avoid a hazard (see “Installation - Electrical connection”).
  • Page 9 Warning and Safety instructions  If the cooktop is installed behind a furniture 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, the housing unit and the floor.
  • Page 10 Warning and Safety instructions Correct use  The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for a while after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.  Oil and fat can overheat and catch fire. Do not leave the cooktop unattended when cooking with oil and fat.
  • Page 11 Warning and Safety instructions  You could burn yourself on the hot cooktop. Protect your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or oven 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.
  • Page 12 Warning and Safety instructions  Because induction heating works extremely quickly, the base of the pan could heat up to the temperature at which oil or fat self- ignites within a very short time. Do not leave the cooktop unattended whilst it is being used.
  • Page 13 Warning and Safety instructions Cleaning and care  Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.  If the cooktop is built in over a pyrolytic oven, the cooktop should not be used whilst the pyrolytic process is being carried out, as this could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the cooktop (see “Safety features - Overheating protection”).
