Overheating protection

All of the induction coils and the cooling element for the electronics are fitted with an overheating protection mechanism. To prevent the induction coils and cooling element from overheating, the overheating protection mechanism works on the affected cooking zone or on the entire hob in the following ways:

–If the booster function is being used it will be switched off.

–If the power level has been set between 10 and 12 it will be reduced. The power level set and the reduced power level will alternate in the display. The reduced power level is also indicated by the number of lines in the light-ring.

–If an induction coil is affected, the relevant cooking zone switches itself off automatically. The display first shows a 0 and then the residual heat indicator.

The cooking zone can be used again as soon as it has cooled down to a safe level.

–If the cooling element is affected, all cooking zones will switch off automatically and a 0 will alternate in the display with the power level set.

As soon as the cooling element has cooled down sufficiently, the cooking zones will automatically continue to operate at the power level previously selected.

Overheating can be caused by:

–heating up an empty pan

–fats or oils being heated up on the highest power setting.

–there being insufficient ventilation to the underside of the appliance.

If the overheating protection mechanism triggers again, contact the Service department.

KM5773 specifications

The Miele KM5773 is a premium induction cooktop that embodies the brand's commitment to quality, innovation, and user-centric design. As one of Miele’s flagship models, the KM5773 combines advanced cooking technologies with a sleek aesthetic, making it a popular choice for both culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs.

One of the standout features of the KM5773 is its induction cooking technology. Induction cooktops use electromagnetic fields to heat pans directly, allowing for precise temperature control and rapid heating. This results in faster cooking times and increased energy efficiency compared to traditional gas or electric burners. With the KM5773, users can enjoy immediate response to temperature adjustments, which provides more control when cooking delicate dishes or searing meats.

The cooktop is equipped with four induction zones of varying sizes, designed to accommodate different pot and pan dimensions. The Flex Zone feature enables users to combine two cooking zones into one larger cooking area, ideal for using oversized cookware or multiple pots simultaneously. This flexibility enhances the user experience and maximizes the versatility of the cooktop.

The KM5773 also includes advanced safety features such as a residual heat indicator, which alerts users when the surface is still hot, and a child lock function that prevents accidental activation. These features not only provide peace of mind but also ensure a safe cooking environment for families.

Another impressive characteristic of the Miele KM5773 is its intuitive touch control interface. The sleek, minimalistic design is complemented by an easy-to-use control panel, allowing for seamless adjustment of settings and timer functions. Users can easily set cooking times, adjust power levels, and switch between different cooking zones with a simple touch.

Additionally, the KM5773 features Miele’s innovative CleanCover design, which ensures that the cooktop remains easy to clean. The smooth glass surface is resistant to scratches and stains, while the absence of protruding elements reduces food buildup, facilitating quick wipe-down after cooking.

In summary, the Miele KM5773 induction cooktop showcases cutting-edge technology, versatile cooking options, and user-friendly features. Its efficient performance, safety attributes, and elegant design make it an excellent addition to any modern kitchen, elevating the cooking experience for everyone from home cooks to culinary professionals. Miele continues to set the standard for quality appliances, and the KM5773 is a testament to their dedication to excellence in cooking technology.
