Overview Included accessories The accessories supplied with your appliance, as well as a range of optional ones, are available to order from Miele (see “Optional accessories”). Wok ring The Wok ring supplied with your appliance can be used in instances where extra stability is required. It is particularly suitable for wok pans with rounded bases.
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. Metal components are protected by a conditioning agent. Smells and vapor may occur when the appliance is used for the first time. 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 burner grate or which does not rest in a stable position on the grate (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 Wok burner food. Unattended food can overheat and ignite. Do not leave the cooktop unattended whilst it is being used. You can place a wok pan on the wok burner without an additional wok ring. Rapid ignition system The cooktop is supplied with a rapid ignition system with the following features: - Rapid ignition without the need to hold the knob. - Automatic re-ignition If the flame is extinguished by a draft, for example, the burner is automatically relit.
Operation Turning the appliance on Switching on during a power outage Press the knob lightly and turn it counter-clockwise to the large flame symbol. In case of a power outage, the flame can be ignited manually. Then press it down firmly to open the gas supply and let it go. Press in the relevant control knob and turn it counterclockwise to the large flame symbol. The ignition electrode “clicks” and ignites the gas.
Operation Adjusting the flame Visual characteristics gas flames The burners can be variably adjusted between the lowest and highest flame settings. Yellow flames Contact the Miele Service Department. 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 The cooktop is equipped with an ignition safety device. If a gas flame is extinguished (e.g., by food boiling over or by a draft) and re-ignition does not work, the gas supply is switched off. This prevents the release of gas. If you turn the knob to the position, the burner is ready for use again. The flame failure device operates independently from the electricity 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.
