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 or contact you dealer for advice.  
Ensure that it presents no danger to  
children while being stored for  
disposal.  
It should be unplugged or

Induction  
The induction principle  
If a suitable pan is placed on the  
cooking zone within 3 minutes, the ß  
will go out and you can continue as  
normal.  
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  
switched on either deliberately or by  
mistake, or when there is residual  
heat present, there is the risk of  
metal items heating up with the  
danger of burning.  
An induction cooking zone only works  
when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on  
it (see "Pans").  
Induction automatically recognises the  
size of the pan, i.e. heat is only  
generated in the area covered by the  
base of the pan.  
Switch the cooking 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 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 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.

Pans  
Pan size  
To make optimum use of the cooking  
zones, choose pans with base  
Suitable pans include:  
– stainless steel pans with a magnetic  
base  
diameters larger than the innermost  
markings but smaller than the  
outermost markings. If the base  
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.  
– 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 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.

Use  
Booster function  
The extra boost of energy is only  
available by taking a proportion of  
energy away from another cooking  
zone. For this reason, the cooking  
zones are networked in pairs as shown.  
The cooking zones are equipped with  
Single (l) or Twin Boosters (I/II) (see  
"Guide to the appliance").  
When activated, the power is boosted  
so that large quantities can be heated  
quickly, e.g. boiling water for cooking  
pasta. When Booster l is activated, the  
cooking zones will operate with extra  
power for 10 minutes and when Booster  
II is activated with extra power for 15  
minutes.  
When the booster is switched on, the  
following happens:  
– if Auto heat-up is activated on either  
zone in the same network, this will be  
switched off.  
The Booster function can only be used  
on two cooking zones at the same time,  
one on the left and one on the right.  
– the power level on the other linked  
cooking zone will sometimes  
decrease.  
If the Booster function is switched on  
when  
– no setting has been selected, the  
cooking zone will revert automatically  
to setting 9 at the end of the Booster  
time or if the Booster function is  
switched off before this.  
When Booster II is switched on, the  
linked cooking zone is switched off.  
– a setting has been selected, the  
cooking zone will revert automatically  
to the setting selected at the end of  
the Booster time or if the Booster  
function is switched off before this.  
Taking a pan off the zone whilst the  
Booster is in operation interrupts the  
Booster function. It will resume if a pan  
is placed back on the zone within 3  
minutes.

Overheating protection  
Overheating can be caused by:  
– Heating up an empty pan  
All the induction coils and the cooling  
elements for the electronics are fitted  
with an overheating protection  
– Fats or oils being heated up on the  
highest power setting.  
mechanism. To prevent the induction  
coils and cooling elements from  
overheating, the overheating protection  
mechanism works on the affected  
cooking zone or on the entire hob in the  
following ways:  
– There being insufficient ventilation to  
the underside of the appliance.  
If the overheating protection  
mechanism triggers again, contact the  
Service department.  
– If the Booster function is being used,  
this will be switched off.  
– The power level will be reduced.  
– If an induction coil is affected, the  
error message FE99 appears and the  
hob switches itself off.  
The error message will go out, and the  
residual heat indicator will appear in the  
display of any cooking zone which is  
still hot.  
The hob can only be used again when  
the induction coil has cooled down  
sufficiently.  
– If a cooling element is affected, the  
power supply to the cooking zones  
will be reduced, and the set power  
level will continue to be displayed.  
As soon as the cooling element has  
cooled down sufficiently, the cooking  
zones will automatically continue to  
operate at the original power setting.

,Installation work and repairs to  
electrical appliances must only be  
carried out by a suitably qualified

national safety regulations (BS 7671  
in the UK). Repairs and other work  
by unqualified persons could be  
dangerous. The manufacturer

Check whether  
Check whether  
– the zone was switched on by mistake  
without a pan on it.  
– the pans being used are suitable.  
– the pan being used is suitable for  
use on an induction zone, and that it  
is large enough (see "Pans").  
– the safety lock is activated.  
If necessary, deactivate it (see  
"Safety lock").  
– the mains fuse has tripped.  
If none of the above is the case, then  
disconnect the appliance from the  
electricity supply for approx. 1 minute.  
To do this:  
... an individual cooking zone or the  
whole hob has switched itself off  
automatically  
The safety switch-off feature or the  
overheating protection mechanism has  
been triggered (see "Safety switch-off"  
and "Overheating protection").  
– switch off at the wall socket, or  
switch off at the isolator, or  
– disconnect the mains fuse.  
Reset the trip switch in the mains fuse  
box, and switch the appliance back on.  
If it still will not switch on, contact a  
qualified electrician or the Miele Service  
Department.

... one of the following has occurred:  
... The cooling fan continues to run  
after the appliance has been  
switched off.  
– The Booster has deactivated early  
automatically.  
This is not a fault. The fan will continue  
running until the appliance has cooled  
down. It will then switch itself off  
automatically.  
– The power level has been reduced.  
– The cooking zone is not working in  
the usual way at the power level set.  
The overheating protection mechanism  
has been triggered (see "Overheating  
protection").  
... an F appears in the display for the  
rear cooking zones, an E appears in  
the display for the front cooking  
zones and numbers appear in the  
timer display.  
... the food in the pan hardly heats up  
or does not heat up at all when the  
Auto heat-up function is switched on  
FE99:  
The overheating protection mechanism  
for the induction coil has been  
triggered. The cooking zone can be  
used again as soon as it has cooled  
down to a safe level.  
This could be because:  
– there is too much food in the pan.  
– the pan is not conducting heat  
properly.  
With other fault messages:  
Interrupt the power supply to the hob  
for approx. 1 minute.  
Select a higher continued cooking  
setting next time, or start cooking at the  
highest setting and then turn down to a  
lower setting manually later on.  
If the problem persists after  
reconnecting the appliance to the  
power supply, please contact the Miele  
Service department.

Optional accessories  
Miele appliances are designed to give the best possible  
results and years of satisfaction. To help you get the most  
from your appliance, Miele has put together a  
comprehensive range of accessories and cleaning products.  
These can be ordered via the internet at:  
or from Miele (see back cover for contact details) or from your  
Miele dealer.  
Miele|home system  
Miele|home enabled appliances use the existing household  
power supply (Powerline technology) to transfer data to the  
Miele|home master appliance (SuperVision appliance with  
the InfoControl unit). You can use the master appliance to call  
up information about Miele|home appliances, such as the  
operational status or fault messages at any time.  
The Miele| system allows certain hobs to be linked to certain  
cooker hoods (Con{ctivity).  
The cooker hood responds automatically to the hob setting,  
controlling the power level and lighting accordingly.  
To enjoy the benefits of this feature, your appliance will have  
to be fitted with a communication module.

Safety instructions for installation  
Safety distance above the appliance  
When two or more appliances are  
installed together below a cooker hood,  
e.g. a gas wok and a ceramic hob,  
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 appliance 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 appliance  
below.

Safety instructions for installation  
Safety distances to the sides and  
back 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.

Safety distances underneath the hob  
To ensure sufficient ventilation to the  
hob, a certain gap must be left between  
the underside of the hob and any oven,  
interim shelf or drawer.  
The minimum gap between the  
underside of the hob and  
– the top of an oven is 15 mm.  
– the top of an interim shelf is 15 mm.  
A space of at least 10 mm must also  
be left at the back to accommodate

Safety instructions for installation  
Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with additional  
niche cladding  
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.

^ Make the worktop cut-out following  
the dimensions applicable.  
^ Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.

^ Check that the hob works.  
^ Seal the cut surfaces on  
wood/laminated worktops with a  
suitable heat-resistant sealant to  
avoid swelling caused by moisture.  
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.

Hob with frame or bevelled edge  
General installation tips  
Do not use any sealant unless  
expressly instructed to do so. The  
sealing strip under the edge of the top  
part of the appliance provides a  
sufficient seal for the worktop.  
Do not use sealant between the  
frame of the top part of the  
appliance and the worktop.  
This could cause difficulties if the  
appliance ever needs to be taken  
out for servicing and possibly result  
in damage to the frame or the  
worktop.
