Risk of damage from sharp and
pointed objects!
Do not clean the area between the
ceramic surface and the worktop
with sharp, pointed objects.
Not all soiling and residues can be
removed using a solution of
washing-up liquid.
An invisible film can develop that can
lead to discolouration of the ceramic
glass. This discolouration cannot be
removed.
Clean the glass ceramic surface
regularly with a suitable ceramic
cooktop cleaning agent.
 Remove any coarse soiling with a
damp cloth and more stubborn
soiling with a shielded scraper blade
suitable for use on glass.
 Then clean the ceramic glass surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel cooktop cleaner (see "Optional
accessories") or with a proprietary
ceramic glass cleaner applied with a
paper towel or a clean cloth. Do not
apply the cleaner while the cooktop is
still hot, as this can result in marking.
Please follow the detergent
manufacturer's instructions.
 Finally wipe the cooktop with a damp
cloth and dry it with a soft, dry cloth.
Residues can burn onto the cooktop
the next time it is used and cause
damage to the glass ceramic surface.
Ensure that all cleaner residues are
removed.
Cleaning and care
 Spots caused by limescale, water
and aluminium residues (spots with a
metallic appearance) can be removed
using Miele's ceramic and stainless
steel cooktop cleaner.

Danger of burning!
Wear oven gloves when removing
residues of sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil from a hot cooktop
with a glass scraper.
 Should any sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil spill or fall onto a hot
cooking zone while it is in use, first
switch off the appliance.
 Then carefully scrape off these
residues immediately whilst they are
still hot, using a shielded scraper
blade.
 Afterwards, clean the glass ceramic
surface in its cooled state, as
described above.
