Operation

Auto heat-up

When Auto heat-up has been activated, the cooking zone switches on automatically at the highest power setting and then switches to the continued cooking setting selected. The heat-up time depends on which continued cooking setting has been chosen (see chart).

As the higher continued cooking settings are generally used for frying food, only a relatively short heat-up time is needed to heat up the pan initially.

Activating

￿Touch the sensor for selecting the cooking zone you want. The cooking zone display will flash.

￿Press the - sensor until the required continued cooking

setting appears, e.g. 6.

During the heat-up time an indicator lamp to the right of the continued cooking setting will light up, and go out at the end of it.

In the extended range of power settings (see "Programming"), A flashes alternately with the continued cooking setting during the heat-up time.

Altering the continued cooking setting will deactivate auto heat-up.

Deactivating

You can switch off auto heat-up before the auto heat-up time has finished.

￿Touch the sensor for selecting the cooking zone you want. The power level will flash.

￿Select a different power level.

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.
