sugar, or pieces of plastic or aluminium  
foil to get onto the cooking zones when  
they are hot. If this should occur,  
switch off the appliance, and carefully,  
scrape off all the sugar, plastic or  
aluminium residues from the hob whilst  
they are still hot, using a shielded  
scaper blade. Take care not to burn  
yourself.  
In countries where there are areas  
~
which may be subject to infestation by  
cockroaches or other vermin, pay  
particular attention to keeping the  
appliance and its surroundings in a  
clean condition at all times. Any  
damage caused by cockroaches or  
other vermin will not be covered by the  
guarantee.  
If residues are allowed to cool before  
being removed, the ceramic surface  
will be susceptible to pitting or even  
cracking.  
Clean the appliance once it has cooled  
down.  
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean  
~
this appliance. The steam could attack  
the electrical components and cause a  
short circuit. Pressurised steam could  
cause permanent damage to the  
surface and to other components, for  
which the manufacturer cannot accept  
liability.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Protection from burning and  
scalding  
Do not cover the appliance, e.g.  
~
with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could  
be a fire hazard if the appliance is  
switched on by mistake.  
The appliance gets hot when in use  
~
and remains hot for quite a while after  
being switched off. There is a danger  
of burning until the residual heat  
indicators go out.  
Never leave the appliance  
~
unattended when cooking with oil or fat  
as these are fire hazards if overheated.  
Very hot oil can catch fire and could  
even set a cooker hood above on fire.  
Always heat fat slowly, watching as it  
heats.  
For added protection, it is advisable  
~
to use heat-resistant pot holders or  
gloves when using the appliance. Do  
not let them get damp or wet, as this  
causes heat to transfer through the  
material more quickly with the risk of  
scalding or burning yourself.  
If, despite this, oil or fat does catch  
~
fire, do not attempt to put out the flames  
with water. Use a suitable fire blanket,  
saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to  
smother the flames.  
Do not heat up unopened tins of  
~
food on the hob, as pressure will build  
up in the tin and it can explode. This  
could result in injury and scalding or  
damage.  
Do not flambé under a cooker hood.  
~
The flames could set the cooker hood  
on fire.  
Do not use the appliance as a  
~
resting place for anything else. Take  
particular care never to place cutlery or  
other metal objects on the hob. When  
the appliance is switched on either  
deliberately or by mistake, or when  
there is residual heat present, there is  
the risk of metal objects heating up,  
with a danger of burning.  
Depending on the material, other  
objects left on the hob could also melt  
or catch fire.  
Damp pan lids might adhere to the  
ceramic surface and be difficult to  
dislodge.  
Switch the cooking zones off after use.

When using an electric socket near  
~
the appliance, care should be taken  
that the cable of the electrical  
appliance does not come into contact  
with the hot appliance. The insulation  
on the cable could become damaged,  
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.  
Always ensure that food is

sufficiently cooked or reheated. Many  
factors will affect the overall cooking  
time, including the size and amount of  
food and its temperature. Some foods  
may contain micro-organisms which are  
only destroyed by thorough cooking at  
a sufficiently high temperature for long  
enough. Therefore when cooking or  
reheating food such as poultry, it is  
particularly important the food is  
completely cooked through. If in doubt,  
select a longer cooking or reheating  
time.

Caring for the environment  
Disposal of the packing  
material  
Disposal of your old appliance  
Electrical and electronic appliances  
often contain materials which, if  
handled or disposed of incorrectly,  
could be potentially hazardous to  
human health and to the environment.  
They are, however, essential for the  
correct functioning of your appliance.  
Please do not therefore dispose of it  
with your household waste.  
The transport and protective packing  
has been selected from materials which  
are environmentally friendly for  
disposal, and can normally be  
recycled.  
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,  
bags, etc. are disposed of safely and  
kept out of the reach of babies and  
young children. Danger of suffocation!  
Rather than just throwing these  
materials away, please ensure they are  
offered for recycling.  
Please dispose of it at your local  
community waste collection/recycling  
centre, and ensure that it presents no  
danger to children while being stored  
for disposal.  
It should be disconnected from the  
mains electricity supply by a competent  
person.

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.  
If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed  
on the cooking zone, the cooking zone  
and the hob will switch off automatically  
after 3 minutes.  
Take particular care never to place  
cutlery or other metal objects on the  
hob. When the appliance is

when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on  
it (see "Pans").  
switched on, either deliberately or  
by mistake, or when there is residual  
heat present, there is the risk of  
metal objects heating up, with a  
danger of burning.  
Induction automatically recognises the  
size of the pan, i.e. heat is only  
generated in the area covered by the  
base of the pan.  
Depending on the material, other  
objects left on the hob could also  
melt or catch fire. Switch the zones  
off after use.  
The cooking zone will not work:  
– if it is switched on without a pan in  
place, or if the pan is unsuitable  
(non-magnetic base).  
– if the diameter of the base of the pan  
is too small.  
– if the pan is taken off the cooking  
zone when it is switched on.  
If this happens, ß will flash in the  
relevant cooking zone display  
alternating with 0 or the last power  
setting selected .

Induction  
Noises  
The appliance has a cooling fan to help  
extend the life of the electronics. When  
the hob is being used intensively, this  
will come on and you will hear a  
whirring sound. The fan may continue  
to run after the appliance has been  
switched off.  
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.  
– If the pan base is made of layers of  
different materials (e.g. in a  
sandwiched base), it might emit a  
cracking sound.  
– Whistling might occur if linked zones  
(see "Booster function") are being  
used on the highest setting at the  
same time, and the pans also have  
bases made of layers of different  
materials.  
– You might hear a clicking sound from  
the electronic switches, especially on  
lower settings.

Induction  
Pans  
Pan size  
Suitable pans include:  
To make optimum use of the cooking  
zones, choose pans with diameters  
larger than the innermost markings but  
smaller than the outermost markings. If  
the diameter of the pan is smaller than  
the innermost marking, the induction  
heating will not work. The zone will  
behave as if it had no pan on it.  
– stainless steel pans with a magnetic  
base  
– enamelled steel pans  
– cast iron pans  
Unsuitable pans:  
– stainless steel pans without a  
magnetic base  
Please note that the maximum diameter  
quoted by manufacturers often refers to  
the diameter of the top rim of the pot or  
pan. The diameter of the base  
– aluminium and copper pans  
– glass, ceramic or earthenware pots  
and pans  
(generally smaller) is more important.  
To test whether a pot or pan is suitable  
for use on an induction hob, hold a  
magnet to the base of the pan. If the  
magnet sticks, the pan is suitable.  
Tips on saving energy  
Use a pan lid whenever possible to  
minimise heat loss.  
Please be aware that the properties of  
the pan base can affect the eveness  
with which food heats up in the pan.  
Unless the pan manufacturer states  
that you can do so, do not use pans  
with very thin bases on this hob, and  
never heat up empty pans as they  
could get damaged. This could also  
damage the appliance.

Operation  
Sensors  
Switching on  
This hob is equipped with electronic  
sensors 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 hob 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 hob on:  
^ Touch the ON/OFF sensor s.  
0 appears in each of the cooking zone  
displays. If no further entry is made, the  
hob will switch itself off after a few  
seconds for safety reasons.  
To switch a cooking zone on:  
^ Select a power setting between 1 and  
9 by touching the - or + sensor.  
To select cooking with Auto heat-up,  
press the - sensor first (see "Auto  
heat-up"). To select cooking without  
Auto heat-up, press the + sensor first.  
Take care only to touch the middle  
of the sensor required. Keep the  
control panel clean, and do not  
place anything on top of it. The  
sensors may fail to react or they  
could mistake the article or any dirt  
for a fingertip contact, thereby  
activating a function or even causing  
the hob to switch off automatically  
(see Safety switch-off.)  
If you wish to switch on another  
cooking zone, and the 0 for that zone  
has already gone out, simply press the  
- or + briefly. The 0 will reappear and  
you can select a power setting (with or  
without Auto heat-up).  
Never place hot pans on the sensor  
switches. The electronic unit  
underneath could get damaged.

Cleaning and care  
For Miele branded cleaning and  
conditioning products see "Optional  
accessories".  
The appliance should be cleaned after  
each use. Allow the hob to cool down  
before cleaning.  
Wipe all coarse soiling off using a  
damp cloth. Stubborn soiling may need  
to be removed with a shielded scraper  
blade.  
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean  
this appliance. The steam could  
reach electrical components and  
cause a short circuit.  
Finally, clean the hob with a suitable  
proprietary ceramic hob cleaner (see  
"Optional accessories") applied with  
kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do not  
apply cleaner whilst the hob is still hot,  
as this could result in marking. Please  
follow the manufacturer's instructions.  
Only use proprietary cleaning  
products which are suitable for  
cleaning ceramic hobs. Never use  
cleaners containing sand, soda,  
alkalis, acids or chlorides, oven  
sprays, dishwasher cleaner, nor  
steel wool, abrasive cleaning  
agents, hard brushes, scouring  
pads and cloths. You should also  
avoid using sponges etc. which  
have previously been used with  
abrasive cleaning agents, as this will  
damage the surface.  
Finally wipe the appliance with a damp  
cloth, and then dry it with a clean, soft  
cloth. Ensure that all cleaner residues  
are removed. Residues can burn onto  
the hob the next time it is used, and  
cause damage to the ceramic surface.  
Do not use washing up liquid to  
clean the ceramic surface, as it can  
leave a blue sheen which may be  
difficult to remove.  
Do not use sharp objects which may  
damage the seals between the  
ceramic surface and the frame or  
between the frame and the worktop.  
To prevent the risk of spillages  
burning on, remove any soiling as  
soon as possible, and ensure that  
pan bases are clean, dry and free of  
grease.

Cleaning and care  
Spots caused by limescale deposits,  
water and aluminium residues (which  
have a metalic appearance) can be  
removed using the ceramic cleaner.  
Should any sugar, plastic or  
aluminium foil spill or fall on to a hot  
cooking zone while it is in use, first  
switch off the appliance. Then carefully  
scrape off all the sugar, plastic or  
aluminium residues from the hob whilst  
they are still hot using a shielded  
scraper blade. Take care not to burn  
yourself.  
Allow the cooking zone to cool down,  
and then clean as described above  
with a suitable proprietary ceramic hob  
cleaner.

Safety distance above the hob  
When two or more appliances are  
installed together below a cooker hood,  
e.g. an electric hob and a gas wok  
combiset, which have different safety  
distances given in the installation  
instructions, you should select the  
greater distance of the two.  
A minimum safety distance must be  
maintained between the hob and the  
cooker hood above it. See the cooker  
hood manufacturer's operating and  
installation instructions for details.  
If the manufacturer's instructions are  
not available for the cooker hood, a  
minimum safety distance of at least 760  
mm must be maintained. For any  
flammable objects, e.g. utensil rails,  
wall units etc. a minimum distance of at  
least 760 mm must be maintained  
between them and the hob below.

Safety distances to the sides of the  
hob  
Ideally the hob should be installed with  
plenty of space on either side. There  
may be a wall at the rear and a tall unit  
or wall at one side. On the other side,  
however, no unit or divider should stan-  
d higher than the hob (see illustrations).  
Not allowed  
The following minimum distances  
should be adhered to for safety  
reasons:  
– 50 mm to the right or left of the  
worktop cut-out to the nearest piece  
of furniture (e.g. tall unit).  
– 50 mm from the worktop cut-out to  
the rear wall.

There must be a minimum distance of 50 mm between the niche cladding and the  
worktop cut-out.  
This distance is only necessary for niche cladding made of wood or any other  
combustible material. For non-combustible materials (metal, ceramic tiles or  
similar), this dimension can be reduced by the thickness of the niche cladding  
material. The materials can warp or distort when subjected to high temperatures.

Installation  
Preparing the worktop  
Installing the hob  
^ Make the worktop cut-out following  
the dimensions applicable.  
Remember to maintain a minimum  
safety distance of 50 mm from the  
back wall, as well as from any tall unit  
or side wall to the right or left of the  
hob.  
^ Feed the hob connection cable down  
through the cut-out.  
^ Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.  
When doing this make sure that the  
seal under the hob sits flush with the  
worktop on all sides. This is important  
to ensure an effective seal all round.  
Do not use sealant.  
See "Safety instructions for  
installation".  
^ Connect the hob to the mains.  
^ Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable  
heat-resistant sealant to avoid  
swelling caused by moisture.  
^ Check that the hob works.  
If, during installation, you find that  
the seals on the corners of the frame  
are not flush with the worktop, the  
corner radius ß R4, can be carefully  
scribed to suit.  
These hobs have a seal underneath  
them to keep the hob securely in  
position. Clamps are not required.  
Any gap between the frame and  
worktop will reduce with time.  
62  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Installation  
Sealant  
Do not use any sealant unless  
expressly instructed to do so. The  
sealing strip under the edge of the top  
part of the hob provides a sufficient  
seal for the worktop.  
Do not use sealant between the  
frame of the top part of the hob and  
the worktop.  
This could cause difficulties if the  
hob ever needs to be taken out for  
servicing and possibly result in  
damage to the frame or the worktop.
