object could cause damage in certain  
circumstances.  
underneath the hob, ensure that there  
is sufficient space between the drawer  
and its contents and the underside of  
the appliance in order to ensure  
sufficient ventilation for the hob. Do not  
store small items or paper in the  
drawer. They could get in through the  
ventilation slots or be sucked into the  
housing by the fan and damage the fan  
or impair cooling.  
Do not use pots or pans on the  
ceramic hob with bases with  
pronounced edges or or ridges, e.g.  
cast iron pans. These could scratch or  
scour the hob surface permanently.  
Grains of salt and sand can also  
scratch.  
Do not allow either solid or liquid  
sugar, or pieces of plastic or  
In countries where there are areas  
which may be subject to infestation  
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay  
particular attention to keeping the

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.  
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.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Futher safety notes  
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil  
containers. These melt at high  
temperatures and could damage the  
ceramic surface. Fire hazard.  
For people fitted with a heart  
pacemaker:  
Please note that the area immediately  
surrounding the hob is  
electromagnetically charged, and that  
this could affect a pacemaker.  
If in any doubt, consult the  
manufacturer of the pacemaker or your  
doctor.  
To prevent damage to items which  
are susceptible to magnetic fields,  
e.g. credit cards, diskettes, pocket  
calculators etc, do not leave them in the  
immediate vicinity of the hob.  
Spray canisters, aerosols and other  
inflammable substances must not  
be stored in a drawer under the hob.  
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.  
Ensure pans are placed centrally  
over the cooking zone to prevent  
unnecessary exposure to the  
electromagnetic field.  
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 your  
old appliance 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.  
Packaging, e.g. cling film, polystyrene  
and plastic wrappings, must be kept  
out of the reach of babies and young  
children. Danger of suffocation.  
Dispose of or recycle all packaging  
materials safely as soon as possible.  
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 unplugged or  
disconnected from the mains electricity  
supply by a competent person. The  
plug must be rendered useless, and the  
cable cut off directly behind it to  
prevent misuse. See the "Warning and  
Safety" section of this booklet for further  
details.

Before using for the first time  
Cleaning and heating up for  
the first time  
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 will  
dissipate after a short time, and do not  
indicate a faulty connection or  
appliance.  
Before using for the first time, clean the  
appliance with a damp cloth only and  
then wipe dry.  
Do not use washing up liquid to  
clean the ceramic surface as it can  
leave a blue sheen which may be  
difficult to remove.  
14  
 
Induction  
How it works  
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 objects heating up, with a  
danger of burning.  
Induction cooking zones only work  
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.  
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 .  
15  
 
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.  
16  
 
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.

Cleaning and care  
Clean the appliance regularly,  
preferably after each use. Allow the hob  
to cool down before cleaning.  
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean  
this appliance. The steam could  
reach electrical components and  
cause a short circuit. Pressurised  
steam could also cause permanent  
damage to the surface and to

manufacturer cannot accept liability.  
Do not use any sharp objects which  
could damage the seal between the  
ceramic surface and the  
surrounding frame and between the  
frame and the worktop.  
After cleaning, dry thoroughly with a  
soft cloth to prevent a build-up of  
limescale deposits  
To remove any limescale deposits,  
caused for example by water boiling  
over as well as metallic marks e.g. from  
saucepan bases, the ceramic surface  
can be cleaned using a proprietary  
cleaning agent for ceramic surfaces  
(available from the Miele Spare Parts  
Department). Follow the manufacturer's  
instructions on the packaging.  
Never use cleaners containing sand,  
soda, alkalis, acids or chlorides,  
oven sprays, dishwasher  
detergents, 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 hob surface with a  
damp cloth and then dry it with a clean  
soft cloth. Ensure that every trace of  
cleaner has been removed from the  
surface. Any remaining trace could  
have a corrosive effect on the hob  
when it is next heated up.  
Do not use washing up liquid to  
clean the ceramic surface as it can  
leave a blue sheen which may be  
difficult to remove.  
E-Cloth  
Note that some cleaning agents contain  
a protective additive designed to  
prevent water marks and smears  
adhering to the surface.  
A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from  
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department  
which is suitable for cleaning surfaces  
such as stainless steel, glass, plastic  
and chrome without the use of  
chemicals.  
27  
 
Cleaning and care  
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.  
Appliances with aluminium frames  
(see data plate) are prone to  
scratching, alkali and acid damage.  
Take great care when cleaning the  
aluminium frame. Do not use cleaning  
agents for stainless steel or descaling  
agents on aluminium surfaces. Soiling  
should be wiped off as soon as  
possible after using the appliance. If  
the soiling is left for a long time it can  
have a damaging effect on the  
aluminium surfaces. Intensive cleaning  
with proprietary ceramic cleaners can  
cause the frames to take on a shiny  
appearance.

Safety instructions for  
installation  
After installing the hob, ensure that  
the connection cable cannot come  
into contact with the underside of the  
appliance. Make sure that there is no  
mechanical obstruction, such as a  
drawer, which could damage it.  
Fit wall units and extractor hood  
before fitting the hob to avoid  
damaging the surface.  
If a protective shelf is installed  
under the built-in hob, there must  
be a minimum distance of 190 mm  
between it and the top of the worktop to  
allow for ventilation to the appliance. A  
gap of 10 mm is required at the back  
for feeding the electrical cable through.  
The veneer or laminate coatings of  
worktops (or adjacent kitchen  
units) must be treated with 100 °C  
heat-resistant adhesive which will not  
dissolve or distort.  
Any backmoulds must be of  
heat-resistant material.  
Observe carefully the safety  
distances given on the following  
pages.  
This equipment may only be used  
in mobile installations such as  
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk  
assessment has been carried out by a  
suitably qualified engineer.  
Do not use any sealant except  
where expressly instructed to do  
so. The seal underneath the appliance  
provides a sufficient seal for the  
worktop (see "Sealant").  
The hob may not be built in over a  
fridge, fridge freezer, freezer,  
dishwasher, washing machine or  
tumble dryer.  
All dimensions in this instruction booklet  
are given in mm.  
These hobs must not be installed  
above ovens or cookers unless  
these have a built-in cooling down fan.  
33  
 
Installation  
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.  
34  
 
Installation  
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 stand  
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.

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.

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.  
39  
 
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.  
40  
 
Installation  
Electrical connection  
Connection should be made via a  
suitable isolator which complies with  
national and local safety regulations,
