Safety features

Safety lock / System lock

Keep children away from the hob for their own safety. Your appliance is equipped with a safety lock and a system lock to prevent the hob and the cooking zones being switched on or any settings being altered.

The safety lock is activated when the hob is switched on. If the safety lock is activated:

–The cooking zone power levels and the timer settings cannot be changed.

–The cooking zones, the hob and the timer can be switched off, but once switched off cannot be switched on again.

The system lock is activated when the hob is switched off. If the system lock is activated, the hob cannot be switched on and the timer cannot be used.

The hob is programmed in such a way that activating the system lock has to be done manually. The setting can be changed so that the system lock is activated automatically five minutes after the hob has been switched off (see "Programming").

When the safety lock or the system lock is activated and a sensor which is not permitted is touched,

–L will appear in the display for the front left cooking zone and C will appear in the display for the front right cooking zone for approx. 3 seconds.

–the tone (which sounds when a sensor is touched) sounds for longer than normal (hobs with a double circle/extended zone)

–the indicator lamp lights up (hobs with single circle zones only)

If there is an interruption to the power supply, the safety lock and the system lock will be deactivated.

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.
