Before using for the first time Please stick the extra data plate for the appliance supplied with this documentation in the space provided in the "After sales service" section of this booklet. Cleaning for the first time ^ Remove any protective wrapping and adhesive labels. ^ Before using for the first time, clean the appliance with a damp cloth only and then wipe dry.
Induction How the appliance works An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.
Induction Noises When using an induction cooking zone, the following noises can occur in the pan, depending on what it is made of and how it has been constructed: – On the higher power settings, it might buzz. This will decrease or cease altogether when the power setting is reduced.
Induction Pans Suitable pans include: – stainless steel pans with a magnetic base – enamelled steel pans – cast iron pans Unsuitable pans: – stainless steel pans without a magnetic base – aluminium and copper pans – glass, ceramic or earthenware pots and pans To test whether a pot or pan is suitable for use on an induction cooktop, hold a magnet to the base of the pan.
Operation This ceramic cooktop is equipped with electronic sensor switches which react to finger contact. To operate a cooking zone, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds. The cooking zones and the timer have to be "active" when you want to set or adjust a power level or the duration.
Switching on The cooktop must be switched on before any of the zones can be used. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used. To switch the cooktop on ^ Touch the "s" sensor. 0 appears in each of the cooking zone displays, and 00 in the timer display.
Settings The appliance is programmed with 9 power settings at the factory. If you wish to fine-tune a setting, you can extend the power setting range (see "Programming"). The intermediate setting will be represented by an illuminated dot next to the number.
Auto heat-up When Auto heat-up has been activated, the cooking zone switches on automatically at the highest setting and then switches to the continued cooking setting which you have previously selected. The heat-up time depends on which continued cooking setting has been chosen (see chart). To activate Auto heat-up ^ Briefly touch the sensor of the required cooking zone.
Booster function The cooking zones are equipped with a Single Booster or a TwinBooster (see "Description of the appliance"). The Booster function enables large quantities to be heated quickly, e.g. when boiling water for cooking pasta. When activated, the cooking zones will operate with extra power for a period of 15 minutes.
Page 26
To switch on the Single Booster ^ Briefly touch the sensor of the required cooking zone. ^ Switch on the cooking zone at another setting. ^ Touch the sensor B I/II. The indicator lamp for the booster will light up and h will begin to flash in the display for the cooking zone.
Page 27
Two switch off Single Booster / TwinBooster ^ Briefly touch the sensor of the required cooking zone. ^ Touch the sensor B I/II repeatedly until the indicator lamp for the Booster goes out and the power setting appears in the display. ^ Briefly touch the sensor of the required cooking zone.
Keeping warm function Each cooking zone has a keeping warm function. The function "h" is between the power settings "0" and "1". If the keeping warm function has been activated, the cooking zone will switch off automatically after a maximum of 2 hours. This function is for keeping food that has just been cooked warm, i.e.
Switching off and residual heat indicators To switch off a cooking zone ^ Touch the sensor of the required cooking zone twice. A 0 flashes in the cooking zone display for a few seconds. If the cooking zone is still hot, the residual heat indicator will then appear in the display.
Tips on saving energy – Use a lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss. Uncovered Covered – Select a smaller pan when cooking small quantities. A small pot requires less energy than a larger, less filled pot. – Cook with as little water as possible. –...
Timer The cooking zone has to be switched on if you wish to use the timer. The timer can be used for two different functions: - To set the minute minder - To set a cooking zone to switch off automatically. A duration of between 1 minute (01) and 9 (9.^) hours can be set.
Timer To switch a cooking zone off automatically You can set a time after which the cooking zone will switch off automatically. All cooking zones can be programmed for the same time. If the time programmed is longer than the maximum operational time allowed, the cooking zone will switch off after the maximum time allowed (see relevant section).
Timer If more than one switch-off time is programmed, the shortest time remaining will show in the display, and the indicator lamp for that particular cooking zone will flash. All the other indicator lamps will light up constantly. If you want to check on the remaining time for another zone, touch the m sensor until the indicator lamp for the zone you require flashes.
Safety features Safety lock/System lock Keep children away from the cooktop for their own safety. Your appliance is equipped with a safety lock and system lock to prevent the cooktop and the cooking zones being switched on or any settings being altered. The safety lock is activated when the cooktop is switched on.
Page 35
Safety features To activate the safety/system lock ^ Touch the - and + sensors at the same time until an audible tone sounds. To deactivate the safety/system lock ^ Touch the - and + sensors at the same time until an audible tone sounds.
Safety features Safety cut-out Safety switch-off with an over-long cooking time If one of the cooking zones is heated for an unusually long period of time (see chart), and the power settings are not altered, the cooktop will switch itself off automatically and the corresponding residual heat indicator will appear.
– Fats or oils being heated up on the highest power setting. – Insufficient ventilation to the underside of the appliance. – a hot cooking zone being switched on again after a power-cut. If the overheating protection mechanism triggers again, contact Miele.
Page 38
Safety features Control panel The electronics of the control panel are equipped with overheating protection. This switches off the heating element automatically before the electronics overheat. The fault message FE37 will be displayed. Once the electronics have cooled off sufficiently, the fault message will disappear and you will be able to operate the cooktop normally.
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. The appliance should be cleaned regularly, preferably after each use. Allow it to cool down to room temperature before cleaning.

Wipe all coarse soiling off using a damp cloth. Stubborn soiling may need to be removed with a shielded scraper blade. Then clean the cooktop with the Original Miele ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner (see "Optional accessories"), applied with kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not apply cleaner whilst the cooktop is still hot, as this could result in marking.
Additional functions Reset This appliance is supplied with a reset function. This function allows you to reset the settings of the programming to the factory default settings.
