Warning and Safety instructions

￿Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

￿Do not use the hob if it is faulty, or if the ceramic surface is cracked, chipped or damaged in any way. Switch it off immediately, and disconnect it from the mains electricity supply. Danger of electric shock.

￿In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Correct use

￿The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.

￿Do not leave the appliance unattended whilst it is in use.

Pans that have boiled dry can cause damage to the ceramic surface for which Miele cannot be held liable. Boiling fat or oil could ignite and cause a fire.

￿If oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to put out the flames with water. Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.

￿Do not use the appliance to heat up the room. Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects near the appliance could catch fire. The life of the appliance could also be reduced.

￿The control panel and the hob frame or hob edges (on hobs with bevelled edges) can become hot due to the influence of the following factors: operating duration, high power level(s), large pans and the number of cooking zones being used.

￿Use heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.

KM5617, KM5600 specifications

The Miele KM 5600 and KM 5617 are innovative induction cooktops that exemplify the brand's commitment to quality and advanced cooking technology, designed to enhance the modern kitchen experience. Both models showcase Miele’s dedication to precision, efficiency, and user convenience, making them excellent choices for home chefs and cooking enthusiasts.

One of the standout features of the KM 5600 and KM 5617 is the induction cooking technology. Induction cooking works by using magnetic fields to directly heat pots and pans, providing rapid and consistent cooking results. This method is not only faster than traditional electric or gas cooking but also offers improved energy efficiency. With the ability to heat up pans in seconds, users can boil water or cook a meal in less time, making it ideal for busy kitchens.

The KM 5600 features a sleek, minimalist design that fits seamlessly into any kitchen aesthetic. It boasts four cooking zones, allowing for multiple dishes to be prepared simultaneously. Each cooking zone is equipped with Miele’s powerful induction technology, which provides precise temperature control. The model also includes a TwinBooster feature, which allows for two cooking zones to combine their power for larger pots or extremely high heat settings, making it perfect for tasks that require an extra energy boost.

Meanwhile, the KM 5617 model offers additional functionalities such as a five-zone configuration, providing even more flexibility for cooking. With features like SensorTouch controls, users can easily adjust temperatures and settings with just a light touch, ensuring a user-friendly cooking experience. The automatic heat-up function is another highlight, enabling rapid preheating to quickly reach boiling temperatures before reverting to the desired cooking level.

Safety is a crucial aspect of both models, with features such as overheating protection and automatic shut-off when no cookware is detected. Moreover, the simple-to-clean surface allows for easy maintenance after cooking, as spills are less likely to burn onto the cooktop.

In conclusion, the Miele KM 5600 and KM 5617 induction cooktops bring together cutting-edge technology and superior craftsmanship. With their combination of efficiency, flexibility, and safety features, these models not only meet but exceed the demands of modern cooking, making them an ideal choice for anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen.
