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.
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.
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.
Operation Switching on The hob must be switched on before any of the zones can be used. Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is being used. To switch the hob on ^ Touch the s sensor. All the sensors will light up. The "0" on the numerical keypad will light up more brightly than the other numbers. If no further entry is made, the hob will switch itself off after a few seconds for safety reasons.
Operation Power level range The appliance is delivered with 9 power levels programmed in. If you wish to fine tune a setting, you can extend the power level range (see "Programming"). Cooking process Power levels* Standard factory settings (9 power levels) Extended settings (17 power levels) Melting butter, chocolate etc.
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.
Operation Continued cooking setting* Heat-up time in minutes and seconds (approx.) 1 1 : 20 1+ 2 : 00 2 2 : 45 2+ 3 : 25 3 4 : 05 3+ 4 : 45 4 5 : 30 4+ 6 : 10 5 6 : 50 5+ 7 : 10 6 1 : 20 6+ 2 : 00 7 2 : 45 7+ 2 : 45 8 2 : 45 8+ 2 : 45 9 - * *The continued cooking settings with + after the number are only available if the power level range has been extended (see "Programming").
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.
Operation Triple circle zone (depending on model) ^ Touch the "0" on the numerical keypad for the cooking zone you wish to use. ^ Set the power level you want by touching the appropriate number. ^ Touch the sensor for the extended zone repeatedly until the number of circles you want is switched on. Switching off the extended cooking area ^ Touch the sensor for the extended area repeatedly until the indicator lamp goes out.
Operation Switching off and residual heat indicators Switching off a cooking zone ^ Touch the "0" on the numerical keypad for the cooking zone you wish to use. The numbers 1 to 9 will go out after a few seconds. If the cooking zone is still hot, residual heat will then be indicated in the display. Switching off the hob ^ Touch the s sensor. This switches off all cooking zones. The numbers 1 to 9 will go out after a few seconds.
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.
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.
Timer The hob must be switched on to use the timer. The timer can be used for two different functions: – to set the minute minder – to set a cooking zone to switch off automatically. You can select a time from 1 minute (01) to 9 hours (9^). A time of up to 99 minutes is set and displayed in minutes. Example: To set a time of more than 99 minutes, the timer must be set to hours (h). The time is then set in half hour stages. The half hour is indicated by a dot after the number.
Timer Minute minder To set the minute minder time Minutes Example: You want to set 15 minutes. ^ Switch the hob on. ^ Touch the m sensor. The m indicator lamp will flash. 00 will appear in the timer display. The 0 on the right will flash. h Enter the tens first and then the units. ^ Touch the number on the numerical keypad which corresponds to the tens position (1 in this case). The timer display will change and 1 will start flashing.
Timer Hours Whole hours are set by touching the relevant number on the numerical keypad. Half hours are set by touching the area between the relevant two numbers. Example: You want to set 2 hours 30 minutes. ^ Switch the hob on. ^ Touch the m sensor. The m indicator lamp will flash. 00 will appear in the timer display. The 0 on the right will flash. h ^ Touch the h sensor, to change the display to show the hours. h ^ Touch the area between the numbers 2 and 3 on the numerical keypad.
Timer To change the minute minder time ^ Touch the m sensor. ^ Set the time you want, as described above. To delete the minute minder time ^ Touch the m sensor. ^ Touch 0 on the numerical keypad.
Timer To switch a cooking zone off automatically You can set a time at the end of which a cooking zone will switch off automatically. All the cooking zones can be programmed at the same time. If the time programmed is longer than the maximum operational time allowed, the cooking zone will switch off after the maximum time allowed (see "Safety switch-off"). ^ Select a power level for the cooking zone you want. ^ Touch the m sensor repeatedly until the indicator lamp for this cooking zone flashes.
Timer To use both timer functions at the same time The minute minder and automatic switch-off functions can be used at the same time. If you have programmed in one or more switch-off times, and would like to use the minute minder as well: Touch the m sensor repeatedly until the indicator lamps for the cooking zones you have programmed light up constantly and 00 appears in the timer display.
Safety features Safety lock / System lock Keep children away from the hob for their own safety. Your appliance is equipped with a safety lock to prevent the hob and the cooking zones being switched on or any settings being altered. The safety lock is activated when the hob is switched on. If the safety lock is activated: – The cooking zone power levels and the timer settings cannot be changed. – The cooking zones, the hob and the timer can be switched off, but once switched off cannot be switched on again.
Safety features Stop and Go Your appliance has a Stop and Go feature which, when activated, reduces the power of all cooking zones in use to power level 1. When Stop and Go activated, the cooking zone power levels and the setting of the timer cannot be altered and the hob can only be switched off. When Stop and Go is deactivated, the cooking zones resume at the power level which was last set. If Stop and Go is not deactivated, the hob switches off after 1 hour.
Safety features Safety switch-off Safety switch-off with an over-long cooking time If one of the cooking zones is heated for an unusually long period of time (see chart) and the power level is not altered, the hob will switch itself off automatically and the relevant residual heat indicator will light up. To use the cooking zone again, switch it back on in the usual way.
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.
Cleaning and care For Miele branded cleaning and conditioning products see "Optional accessories". ,Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. The appliance should be cleaned after each use. Let it cool down to room temperature before cleaning. To avoid water marks and limescale deposits, use a soft cloth to dry surfaces that have been cleaned with water.
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.
Programming You can change the default settings of programme options (see chart). Several settings can be altered in succession. After programming mode has been called up, P (Programme) and S (Status) will appear in the timer display. On hobs with 3 cooking zones, an additional indicator will appear at the rear left. The programme is shown in the numerical keypad displays at the front left and rear left.
