Ceramic Surface - Miele KM 404 Operating Instructions Manual

Do not operate the cooktop until it
is properly installed in the
countertop.
This appliance is intended for
residential cooking only.
Use the appliance only for its
intended purpose. The
manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damages caused by
improper use of the cooktop.
Take care that drafts do not blow
flammable material toward the
flames or push the flames so that they
extend beyond the edges of the pan.
Never use the cooktop to warm the
room.
Install the cooktop in a room that
has sufficient ventilation.
This appliance must not be
operated outdoors.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any
part of the cooktop.
For proper lighting and
performance of the burners, keep
the igniters clean and dry.
Make sure all components of the
gas burners are assembled
correctly before using the cooktop.
Ensure that any burners in use are
always covered with a pan.
Do not use pans with too large of a
bottom diameter. Using larger pans
may cause the flames to spread out
and damage the surrounding
countertop or other countertop
appliances.
For safety and stability, do not use
pans with a bottom diameter
smaller than the pan support.
Do not store aerosols,
combustibles and/or any other
easily flammable materials underneath
or adjacent to the cooktop.
Only certain types of glass/ceramic
or other glazed cookware are
suitable for use on a cooktop without
breaking due to a sudden temperature
change.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the appliance. Steam could
penetrate electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Spills containing salt or sugar
should be removed immediately.
Do not drop anything on the
ceramic surface of the appliance.
Although the ceramic glass is shock
and scratch resistant, it is not shock or
scratch proof.
