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 should 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.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection/recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

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, data plate" 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.
Before using for the first time
On hobs with bevelled glass edges, a small gap may be
visible between the hob and the worktop during the first
few days after installation. This gap will reduce with time as
the appliance is used and will not affect the electrical
safety of your appliance.
The metal components have a protective coating which may
give off a slight smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours given off do not indicate a faulty
connection or appliance, and they are not harmful to health.

How the cooking zones work
Single circle cooking zones have one heating element, whilst
double circle (vario) cooking zones and extended zones have
two. Depending on model, the heating elements may be
separated by an isolating ring.
Each cooking zone has overheating protection (a
temperature limiter), which stops the ceramic surface from
becoming too hot (see "Overheating protection").
When a power level is selected, the heat switches on and the
element can be seen through the ceramic surface.
The temperature of the cooking zones depends on the power
level selected, and is electronically regulated. This controls
the "timing" of a cooking zone, switching the element on and
off.

Operation
How the hob is operated
The hob is equipped with electronic sensor controls which
react to finger contact.
When the hob is switched off only the symbols for the sensors
for switching the hob on and off and the safety lock are
visible. When the hob is switched on all the other sensors
light up as well. The "0" on the numerical keypad lights up
more brightly than the other numbers.
To operate the hob, touch the relevant sensor. Each time you
touch a sensor, an audible tone sounds.
Take care to 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".)
Never place hot pans on the sensors. The electronic unit
underneath could get damaged.

Operation
Auto heat-up
When Auto heat-up has been activated, the cooking zone
switches on automatically at the highest power setting and
then switches to the continued cooking setting selected. The
heat-up time depends on which continued cooking setting
has been chosen (see chart).
As the higher continued cooking settings are generally used
for frying food, only a relatively short heat-up time is needed
to heat up the pan initially.
Activating
^ Touch the number of the continued cooking setting you
require until a tone sounds and the continued cooking
setting selected starts flashing.
The continued cooking setting selected will flash during the
heat-up time.
Altering the continued cooking setting will deactivate auto
heat-up.
If the range of power settings has been extended (see
"Programming") and one of the intermediate continued
cooking settings has been selected (e.g. 3+) the power level
before and after the intermediate setting will flash (e.g. 3 and
4).
Deactivating
You can switch off auto heat-up before the auto heat-up time
has finished.
^ Touch the continued cooking setting which has been
selected until the display lights up constantly or select a
different power level.

Operation
Switching on the extended cooking area
When cooking with larger pans, the outer circle of a double
circle/extended zone (see "Guide to the appliance") can be
switched on to provide an extended cooking area.
For hobs with a combination extended zone, two cooking
zones (one behind the other) are switched on together with
the heating element located between them. The combination
extended zone is operated via the front right cooking zone.
When the outer circle is switched on the sensor for the
extended cooking area lights up more brightly than normal.
For hobs with a triple circle zone (depending on model), no
distinction is made in the display between the second and
third heating element.
The extended cooking area will switch off when the cooking
zone is switched off.

Suitable pans
– Most suitable
The best pans for use on a ceramic hob are those with a
thick base which is very slightly concave when cold. When
heated, the base flattens to rest evenly on the hob,
optimising the conduction of the heat.
cold
hot
– Less suitable
Pans made of glass, ceramic or stoneware are less
suitable, as they do not conduct the heat so well.
– Not suitable
Dishes or containers made from plastic or aluminium foil
must not be used as these melt at high temperatures.
– Aluminium pans or pans with an aluminium base can
cause metallic, shiny marks to appear on the ceramic
surface. These marks can be removed using a ceramic
and stainless steel hob cleaner (see "Cleaning and care").
– Do not use pots and pans on the ceramic hob with bases
with pronounced edges or ridges, e.g. cast iron pans.
These could scratch or scour the hob surface permanently.
– Lift pans into position on the hob. Sliding them into place
can cause scuffs and scratches.
– Often the maximum diameter quoted by manufacturers
refers to the diameter of the top rim of the pot or pan. The
diameter of the base (generally smaller) is more important.
28

Tips on saving energy
– Check that the diameter of the pan base is wide enough
for the cooking zone so that heat is not lost unnecessarily.
too small
suitable
– Use a pan lid whenever possible to minimise heat loss.
uncovered
covered
– Select a smaller pan when cooking small quantities. A
small pan on a small cooking zone uses less energy than a
large, partially filled pan on a large cooking zone.
– Cook with as little water as possible.
– Once food has come to the boil or the oil in the pan is hot
enough for frying, reduce the heat to a lower setting.
– When cooking for a long time, switch the cooking zone off
about 5 to 10 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
In this way, use is made of the residual heat.
– Cooking times are greatly reduced when using a pressure
cooker.

Safety features
Overheating protection
Each zone is equipped with overheating protection (internal
temperature limiter). This switches off the heating elements in
the cooking zone before the ceramic surface overheats.
If the heating element switches on and off even when the
highest power level is selected, this indicates that the
overheating protection mechanism has triggered.
Once the ceramic surface has cooled down to a safe level,
the heating element will automatically switch back on again.
Overheating can be caused by:
– a cooking zone being switched on without a pan on it.
– heating up an empty pan.
– the base of a pan not sitting evenly on the cooking zone.
– the pan not conducting heat properly.

Cleaning and care
Do not use washing-up liquid to clean the ceramic surface.
Washing-up liquid will not remove all soiling and deposits.
It will form an invisible coating which will cause permanent
discolouration of the ceramic surface.
Clean the hob regularly with a suitable ceramic hob
cleaner.
Wipe all coarse soiling off using a damp cloth. Stubborn
soiling may need to be removed with a shielded scraper
blade.
Then clean the hob with Miele ceramic and stainless steel
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.
Finally, wipe the hob with a damp cloth, then polish with a
soft, dry 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.
Spots caused by limescale, water and aluminium residues
(spots with a metallic appearance) can be removed using
Miele's ceramic and stainless steel hob cleaner.
Should any sugar, plastic or aluminium foil spill or fall onto
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 appliance to cool down, and then clean as
described above.

To test the power level
You can test the power level of a cooking zone by measuring
how long it takes to bring a specific amount of water to the
boil.
The pan (and lid) must be stainless steel or enamel. The
diameter of the pan must match the cooking zone, and be
flat-bottomed or slightly concave.
^ Take a note of the diameter and wattage of the cooking
zone to be tested (see "Guide to the appliance - Cooking
zones").
^ Fill the pan with the quantity of water given in the table. The
temperature of the water should be approx. 20°C.
^ Put the lid on the pan and place the pan on the cooking
zone.
^ Switch on the cooking zone at the highest power level.
^ Note the time it takes for the water to boil.
The power level for the cooking zone is correct if the water
boils within the time given in the table.
The time can vary if:
- there is low or excess voltage.
- very cold water is used.
- an unsuitable pan is used.
- the pan is not covered.

Safety instructions for installation
Safety distance when installing the appliance near a wall with additional
niche cladding
A minimum safety distance must be maintained between the worktop cut-out and
any niche cladding to protect it from heat damage.
If the niche cladding is made from a combustible material (e. g. wood) a
minimum safety distance e of 50 mm must be maintained between the cut-out

Installation
Worktops made of wood
The exact positions of the spring
clamps, and the safety brackets for
hobs with bevelled edges, are shown
in the building-in dimensions for the
particular hob.
^ Seal the cut surfaces with a suitable
heat-resistant sealant to avoid
swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
Hobs with bevelled edges:
The sealing strip will ensure that the
hob sits securely in the cut-out. Any
gap between the frame and worktop
will reduce with time.
^ Make the worktop cut-out according
to the dimensions given in the
building-in dimensions. Remember to
maintain the minimum safety
distances (see "Safety instructions
for installation").
^ Depending on model, place spring
clamps a (supplied) on the upper
edge of the cut-out or for hobs with
bevelled edges, safety brackets b
(supplied) flush with the upper edge
of the cut-out.
^ Secure the spring clamps a or
safety brackets b using the
3.5 x 25 mm wood screws supplied.

If the corners of the frame are not
flush with the worktop surface, the
corner radius (ß R4) can be carefully
scribed to fit.
^ Connect the hob to the mains.
^ Check that the hob works.
The hob can now only be removed
with a special tool.
