~ Repair of the cooktop during the warranty period should be performed only by a service who is authorized by the manufacturer; otherwise, should damage result, it will not be covered by the warranty. ~ Defective components should be replaced by genuine Miele replacement parts only.
~ Protect your hands when working with a hot appliance - wear oven mitts, and use potholders, etc. Make sure the material is not wet or damp. This would increase the transfer of heat to your skin, and could cause burns. ~ Never flambé food under an exhaust hood.
~ If sugar, sugary foods, plastic, or aluminum foil fall onto a hot cooking zone, switch the appliance off. Immedi - ately, while the zone is still hot, use a glass scraper to thoroughly eliminate the spill from the cooking zone. Failure to do so can lead to damage to the glass ceramic as it cools down.

Calibrating the sensors Automatic calibration To ensure continuing trouble-free operation, the sensors – are recalibrated after the appliance is connected and after every power interruption, such as an electricity outage. The safety lock indicator light comes on during automatic calibration and the cooktop cannot be switched on.
How induction works Under each induction cooking zone, there is an induction coil. When the cooking zone is switched on, the coil generates a magnetic field that acts directly on the bottom of the pot/pan to heat it up. The cooking zone heats up indirectly, only from the heat given off by the pot/pan.
Noise When you use an induction cooking zone, the following noises may occur, depending on the the type and shape of the cookware bottom: – The zone may hum at the higher power settings. The humming will become quieter or disappear if you lower the power setting.
Cookware Type of cookware Suitable cookware is made of: – Stainless steel with a magnetizable bottom – enamel-coated steel – Cast iron Unsuitable cookware is made of: – Stainless steel with a .

Auto heat When automatic heat-up is activated, the cooking zone switches on automatically to full power (boil setting) and then switches to the continued cooking setting you have selected. The warm-up time depends on the continued cooking setting chosen (see Table).
Activate auto heat ^ Switch the cooking zone on by touching the - sensor switch. Touch - the sensor switch until the desired power level appears in the display.
Booster function The cooking zones are equipped with a Single (I) or Twin Boosters (I/II) (see Guide to the Appliance). The booster function boosts power so that large quantities can be quickly heated, such as water for cooking pasta.
Activating Booster I ^ If necessary, switch on the desired cooking zone. ^ Touch the B sensor switch of the relevant cooking zone. I will appear in the cooking zone display, and the Booster function indicator light will also come on. Activating Booster II ^ If necessary, switch on the desired cooking zone.
