Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

 

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be

dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical
appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service
technician.

 

A damaged appliance is dangerous. Check it for any visible

damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.

 

Reliable and safe operation of this cooktop can only be assured if

it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

 

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified
electrician.

 

To avoid the risk of damage to the cooktop, make sure that the

connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the
mains electricity supply before connecting it to the mains. 
Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

 

Do not connect the cooktop to the mains electrical supply by a

multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

 

For safety reasons, this cooktop may only be used after it has

been built in.

 

This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile

installations (e.g. on a ship).

 

Never open the casing of the cooktop.

Touching or tampering with electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
