Induction

How induction works

Under each induction cooking zone, there is an induction coil. When the cooking zone is switched on, the coil generates a magnetic field that acts directly on the bottom of the pot/pan to heat it up. The cooking zone heats up indirectly, only from the heat given off by the pot/pan.

Cooking zones with induction only work with cookware that has a magnetizable bottom (see "Cookware").

The induction process automatically takes into account the size of the cookware being used. In other words, it only works in the area that is covered by the cookware bottom.

The cooking zone will not work

if there is no cookware, or unsuitable cookware (items without a magnetizable bottom) being used

if the bottom diameter of the cookware being used is too small

if the cookware is removed from a cooking zone that is on.

In such cases, the symbol ß will flash alternatingly in the matching cooking zone display with 0 or the selected power setting.

If suitable cookware is placed on the induction zone within 3 minutes, the ßgoes out, and you can continue as usual.

If no cookware or unsuitable cookware is used, the cooking zone will automatically switch off after 3 minutes.

Do NOT use the appliance as a resting place for cutlery or other items made of metal. If the appliance is on, or accidentally switched on or there is residual heat, there is the danger that these items will heat up (danger of burns!).

Always switch off the cooking zones after use.

Miele, a renowned German manufacturer known for its high-quality home appliances, has taken cooking to the next level with its KM 5987 and KM 5993 induction cooktops. These models are not just about modern aesthetics but are packed with advanced technologies and features, making them ideal for both amateur and professional chefs.

The KM 5987 and KM 5993 induction cooktops are designed with efficiency and precision in mind. Induction technology provides rapid heating and precise temperature control, allowing users to achieve the perfect cooking results. This innovative method heats pots and pans directly through electromagnetic energy, ensuring the cooktop surface remains cool and safe to touch, significantly reducing the risk of burns and ensuring easy clean-up.

One of the standout features of these cooktops is the Power Flex area. This unique design allows for flexible cooking configurations by merging two cooking zones into one larger area, accommodating larger pots or griddles. This versatility is particularly beneficial for preparing meals for family or entertaining guests.

Both models also boast Miele’s SmartSelect feature which intelligently adjusts the cook settings. Users can easily select the desired power level for each cooking zone by simply sliding their finger across the control panel. This intuitive interface enhances the cooking experience, making it easier to monitor and adjust the heat at a glance.

Another remarkable characteristic is the integrated timer function. Each cooking zone can be programmed with its own timer, allowing for synchronized cooking of multiple dishes. Once the time is up, the cooktop automatically switches off, ensuring food is cooked perfectly and preventing overheating.

Safety is also a top priority with the KM 5987 and KM 5993 models. The cooktops come equipped with features such as automatic shut-off, residual heat indicators, and child lock functions, providing peace of mind for households with children.
