IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To avoid damaging the cooktop, make sure that the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the building's power supply before connecting the appliance. When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the appliance must be completely disconnected from the household electricity supply. The gas supply must be shut off. Ensure that this is the case by: - removing the fuse - “tripping” the circuit breaker, or - unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord. - Shut off the gas supply. Danger of electric shock. Do not use the cooktop if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped, or damaged in any way.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Correct use The cooktop gets hot when in use and remains hot for some time after being turned off. Do not touch the appliance if there is a possibility that it could still be hot. WARNING NEVER use this cooktop as a space heater to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance. Never leave the appliance unattended at high heat settings – Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS If the cooktop is covered, there is a risk that the material of the cover will ignite, explode or melt if the cooktop is still hot or if turned on inadvertently. Never cover the cooktop with a board, cloth or protective sheet. When the appliance is turned on inadvertently or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is a risk of the metal items heating up. Other materials can melt or catch fire when the appliance is switched on.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS If the cookware is too small, it will not sit properly on the burner grate. If the cookware is too large, heat emitted from the bottom of the cookware may damage the countertop, walls with poor heat-resistance (e.g. paneled walls) or portions of the cooktop. Make sure that the burner flames do not extend beyond the bottom of the cookware and rise up its sides. Only use cookware with a thick enough bottom. Failure to do so may result in damage to the cooktop.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Ensure that the igniters are clean and dry to allow the burners to ignite and burn properly. Fire hazard! Loose-fitting or hanging garments can catch fire. Be sure to wear appropriately fitting clothing when cooking. Never allow loose clothing or flammable materials to come into contact with the burners while the burners are in use. When you have finished cooking, make sure that the burners are turned off by checking the position of the knobs.

Before first use Cleaning the cooktop for the first time Turning on the cooktop for the first time Before first use, wipe down the appliance with a damp cloth and dry it. The metal components have a protective coating. When the cooktop is used for the first time, this causes a smell and possibly also vapor. Using a soft sponge, clean all removable burner parts with a solution of warm water and a small amount of liquid dish soap.
Cookware - Select cookware that fits the size of the burner: Large diameter = large burner Small diameter = small burner - Using cookware that is too large can cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding countertop or other appliances. Choosing the right cookware size improves efficiency. Any cookware that has a diameter smaller than the grates or which does not rest in a stable position on the grates (without wobbling) is dangerous and should not be used.
Energy saving tips - Whenever possible, keep pots and pans covered while cooking. Doing so will prevent unnecessary heat loss. - Wide, shallow cookware heats up faster and is therefore preferable to tall, narrow cookware. - Cook with as little water as possible. - Reduce the power setting once the water has come to a boil or the oil/fat is hot enough for frying. - Use a pressure cooker to reduce the cooking time.
Operation Fire hazard due to overheated Switching on during a power outage food. Unattended food can overheat and ignite. Do not leave the cooktop unattended while it is being used. In case of a power outage, the flame can be ignited manually. Turning the appliance on Press in the knob and turn it counterclockwise to the large flame symbol. The ignitor “clicks” and ignites the gas. When a knob is activated, a spark is automatically produced on all burners.
Operation Adjusting the flame Visual features of gas flames The burners can be variably adjusted between the lowest and highest flame settings. Yellow flames Call Customer Service. Because the edges of the flame are much hotter than its center, the flame tips should stay beneath the bottom of the cookware. Flame tips which extend beyond the sides of the cookware emit unnecessary heat into the room and can also damage cookware handles, which increases the risk of injury.
Safety features Ignition safety Your cooktop is equipped with an ignition safety control. If a gas flame is extinguished, e.g., by food boiling over or by a draft, the gas supply is switched off. This prevents the release of gas. If you turn the knob to burner off, the burner is ready for use again. The ignition safety control operates independently from the power supply. This means that it will still work if the cooktop is used during a power outage.
Cleaning and care Danger of burning due to hot Unsuitable cleaning agents surfaces. The cooktop surface, grates, and burners will be hot after use. Allow the cooktop to cool down before cleaning it. To avoid damaging the surfaces of the appliance, do not use: Risk of damage due to moisture ingress. The steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooktop.
Cleaning and care The entire cooktop should be cleaned after each use. Soften any stubborn soiling beforehand. cleaning agent while the cooktop is still hot, as this could result in stains.

Stains caused by limescale or water can be removed using Miele’s ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the grates Remove the grates. Clean the grates in a dishwasher or with a solution of warm water and a little liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge. Soften any stubborn soiling beforehand. Dry the the grates thoroughly with a clean cloth. Cleaning the knobs The knobs are not dishwasher-safe. The knobs should only be cleaned by hand. The knobs may become discolored if they are not cleaned regularly. Clean the knobs after each use.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the burner Do not clean any parts of the burner in a dishwasher. The surface of the burner cap will become more matte with time. This is quite normal and does not indicate damage to the burner cap. The burner should be dismantled and then cleaned only by hand using a solution of warm water and a small amount of liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge. Clean any soiling from the flame openings. Risk of explosion.
Cleaning and care Assembling the burner Checking burning properties Ignite all burners to check that they are operating correctly: - The flame must not go out on the lowest setting, or when the knob is turned quickly from the highest to the lowest setting. - On the highest setting, the flame must have a distinctive and visible core. Place the burner head onto the burner base so that the thermocouple and the ignitor extend through their respective holes in the burner head.
