    They contain important notes on in‐ stallation, safety, use and maintenance. Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compli‐ ance with these instructions. Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users...
  • Page 5 Warning and Safety instructions Correct application  This hob is intended for domestic use and use in other similar en‐ vironments.  This hob is not intended for outdoor use.  It is intended for domestic use only to cook food and keep it warm.
  • Page 6 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.
  • Page 7  Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re‐ pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.  Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check the hob for visible signs of damage.
  • Page 8 Warning and Safety instructions  Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu‐ ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.  The hob is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a remote control system.
  • Page 9 Warning and Safety instructions Correct use  The hob 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.  Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the hob when it is in use could catch fire.
  • Page 10 Warning and Safety instructions  You could burn yourself on the hot hob. Protect your hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot pots and pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat to trans‐ fer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.
  • Page 11 Warning and Safety instructions  Induction heating works extremely quickly and so 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 hob unattended whilst it is being used.
  • Page 12 Warning and Safety instructions Cleaning and care  Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this hob. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir‐ cuit.  If the hob is built in over a pyrolitic oven, the hob should not be used whilst the pyrolitic process is being carried out, as this could trigger the overheating protection mechanism on the hob (see rele‐...
