Warning and Safety instructions

Pans must be the correct size for the burner they are used on (see
“Suitable cookware”). A pan which is too small will be unstable on
the pan support. If the pan diameter is too large, flames can spread
out to the sides and damage or burn the worktop, wall claddings or
surrounding units and also parts of the cooktop. Miele cannot be
held liable for this type of damage.
Ensure that the flames from the burner do not spread out beyond
the base and up the sides of the pan.
Do not use pans with very thin bases on this cooktop, and never
heat up empty pans as they could get damaged. This could also
damage the appliance.
The pan supports supplied with the appliance must always be
used. Never place a pan on the burner itself.
Replace the pan supports carefully to avoid scratching the surface
of the cooktop.
Remove all grease spatters and other combustible (food) residues
from the wok burner as soon as possible. They are a fire hazard.
Avoid allowing liquids or foods containing salt to spill onto the
cooktop. If salty foods or liquids do get on the cooktop, they should
be removed as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.
The use of the wok burner creates heat, moisture and combustion
products in the room where it is installed. Make sure that the
appliance is installed in a location with sufficient ventilation. Natural
ventilation openings should not be blocked. Alternatively, a
mechanical ventilation device (e.g. a rangehood) can be installed.
If the wok burner is used for very long periods of time, additional
ventilation of the room may be necessary, e.g. by opening windows
or doors, or running the rangehood on the highest setting.
