IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Technical safety
Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by a Miele authorized service technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician.
Before installing the cooktop, check for externally visible damage. Do not operate a damaged appliance.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician.
Before installation, make sure that the voltage and frequency listed on the rating label correspond with the household electrical supply. To prevent injury and appliance damage, these data must match. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Do not use an extension cord to connect this appliance to the electrical supply. Extension cords do not ensure the required safety of the appliance.
Install the appliance so that the power cord does not come into contact with any portion of the cooktop which may become hot during use.
Do not use the appliance until it has been properly installed in the countertop.
Before servicing, disconnect the appliance from the main power supply.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or if the appliance has been damaged in any manner. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department.
Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance.
While the appliance is under warranty repairs should only be performed by an authorized service technician. Otherwise the warranty is void.
In the event of any damage to the appliance, it must be turned off immediately and disconnected from the main power supply. Contact Miele’s Technical Service Department.
Do not use the appliance until it has been repaired. Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until repair work is completed.
Defective components should be replaced by Miele original spare parts only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance.
Do not cook on a broken cooktop. Any breakages or cracks in the ceramic surface of the appliance are defects and must be treated as such. If the cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spills may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Do not use the appliance until it has been repaired.
