Miele KM 406 Operating Instructions Manual page 5

For safety reasons the appliance
must only be operated after it has
been built in. This is necessary to en-
sure that all electric components are
shielded.
This appliance is for domestic use
only, and is not intended for com-
mercial use.
Use this appliance for the prepara-
tion of meals only. Any other usage
is at the owner's risk and could be dan-
gerous. The manufacturer can not be
held responsible for damage caused
by improper use or misuse of the appli-
ance.
Do not use the appliance to heat
up the room. The high temperature
could cause inflammable objects
nearby to catch fire.
Ensure the room in which the gas
hob is installed has sufficient venti-
lation. In a small kitchen it may be ad-
visable to keep the door open if using
the hob for extended periods.
This appliance must not be set up
or operated in the open air.
Make sure all the components of
the gas burner have been correctly
assembled before switching on.
Ensure that air inlet is never cov-
ered over with a cloth or anything
else.
When using a cooker hood over
the gas hob, ensure that the burner
is always covered with a pan when in
use. Otherwise flames could be drawn
up by the suction of the cooker hood,
parts of which could then be damaged
or even set on fire.
Only use woks or pans with a base
diameter between 16 cm and maxi-
mum 28 cm on this hob. Using larger
pans may cause the flames to spread
out to the sides and damage or burn
the worktop, wall claddings or sur-
rounding units.
For safety and stability use the
trivet for pans with a base diameter
of less than 16 cm.
Do not store any inflammable ob-
jects near the gas hob.
