IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct usage

Do not operate the cooktop until it is properly installed in the

countertop.

This appliance is intended for residential cooking only.

Use the appliance only for its intended purpose. The

manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by improper use of the cooktop.

Take care that drafts do not blow flammable material toward the

flames or push the flames so that they extend beyond the edges of the pan.

Never use the cooktop to warm the room.

Install the cooktop in a room that has sufficient ventilation.

This appliance must not be operated outdoors.

Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop.

For proper lighting and performance of the burners, keep

the igniters clean and dry.

Make sure all components of the gas burners are assembled

correctly before using the cooktop.

Ensure that any burners in use are always covered with a pan.

Do not use pans with too large of a bottom diameter. Using larger pans

may cause the flames to spread out and damage the surrounding countertop or other countertop appliances.

For safety and stability, do not use pans with a bottom diameter

smaller than the pan support.

Do not store aerosols, combustibles and/or any other

easily flammable materials underneath or adjacent to the cooktop.

Only certain types of glass/ceramic or other glazed cookware are

suitable for use on a cooktop without breaking due to a sudden temperature change.

Protection from damage

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance. Steam could

penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Spills containing salt or sugar should be removed immediately.

Do not drop anything on the ceramic surface of the appliance.

Although the ceramic glass is shock and scratch resistant, it is not shock or scratch proof.

KM 404 specifications

The Miele KM 404 is an exemplary induction cooktop that showcases the fusion of innovative technology and user-friendly design. Known for its high-quality performance and sleek aesthetics, it is a stellar addition to any modern kitchen.

One of the pivotal features of the KM 404 is its induction cooking technology. This method of cooking uses electromagnetic fields to directly heat the cookware rather than the cooktop surface itself, ensuring rapid heating and precise temperature control. As a result, water boils faster, and simmering sauces becomes an effortless task. This technology not only enhances cooking efficiency but also promotes safety, as the cooktop remains cool to the touch, significantly reducing the risk of burns.

The KM 404 boasts a generous cooking surface with multiple zones, providing ample space for various pots and pans. The cooktop includes a powerful dual-zone feature that allows users to utilize larger cookware, making it highly versatile for different culinary needs. Each cooking zone is equipped with a booster function, ensuring that high heat is delivered quickly when needed, perfect for searing meats or boiling large quantities of water.

Another noteworthy characteristic is Miele’s user-centric design. The KM 404 is equipped with intuitive touch controls that allow for effortless operation. Users can easily adjust settings, including temperature levels and timer functions, ensuring that cooking is not only efficient but also enjoyable. The clear LCD display provides real-time feedback, making it easy to monitor cooking progress.

Miele has also incorporated smart technology into the KM 404, which includes features like pan detection and automatic shut-off. This ensures that energy is used efficiently and that the cooktop is safe, as cooking zones deactivate when no cookware is detected. Additionally, the cooktop's sleek surface is easy to clean, requiring only a simple wipe to maintain its pristine appearance.

In conclusion, the Miele KM 404 is a top-tier induction cooktop that combines advanced features with a user-friendly interface. Its innovative cooking technology, versatile cooking zones, safety features, and elegant design make it an ideal choice for both novice cooks and seasoned chefs alike. With Miele’s commitment to quality and performance, the KM 404 represents an investment in culinary excellence for any kitchen.
