Warning and Safety instructions

Protection from burning and scalding

The appliance gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a

while after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the residual heat indicators go out.

For added protection, it is advisable to use heat-resistant pot

holders or gloves when using the appliance. Do not let them get damp or wet, as this causes heat to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding or burning yourself.

Do not heat up unopened tins of food on the hob, as pressure will build up in the tin and it can explode.

This could result in injury and scalding or damage.

Do not use the appliance as a resting place for anything else.

Take particular care never to place cutlery or other metal objects on the hob. When the appliance is switched on either deliberately or by mistake, or when there is residual heat present, there is the risk of metal objects heating up, with a danger of burning. Depending on the material, other objects left on the hob could also melt or catch fire.

Damp pan lids might adhere to the ceramic surface and be difficult to dislodge.

Switch the cooking zones off after use.

Do not cover the appliance, e.g. with a cloth, kitchen foil, etc. This could be a fire hazard if the appliance

is switched on by mistake.

Never leave the appliance unattended when cooking with oil

or fat as these are fire hazards if overheated. Very hot oil can catch fire and could even set a cooker hood above on fire. Always heat fat slowly, watching as it heats.

If, despite this, oil or fat does catch fire, do not attempt to put out the

flames with water. Use a suitable fire blanket, saucepan lid, damp towel or similar to smother the flames.

Do not flambé under a cooker hood. The flames could set the

cooker hood on fire.

KM5773 specifications

The Miele KM5773 is a premium induction cooktop that embodies the brand's commitment to quality, innovation, and user-centric design. As one of Miele’s flagship models, the KM5773 combines advanced cooking technologies with a sleek aesthetic, making it a popular choice for both culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs.

One of the standout features of the KM5773 is its induction cooking technology. Induction cooktops use electromagnetic fields to heat pans directly, allowing for precise temperature control and rapid heating. This results in faster cooking times and increased energy efficiency compared to traditional gas or electric burners. With the KM5773, users can enjoy immediate response to temperature adjustments, which provides more control when cooking delicate dishes or searing meats.

The cooktop is equipped with four induction zones of varying sizes, designed to accommodate different pot and pan dimensions. The Flex Zone feature enables users to combine two cooking zones into one larger cooking area, ideal for using oversized cookware or multiple pots simultaneously. This flexibility enhances the user experience and maximizes the versatility of the cooktop.

The KM5773 also includes advanced safety features such as a residual heat indicator, which alerts users when the surface is still hot, and a child lock function that prevents accidental activation. These features not only provide peace of mind but also ensure a safe cooking environment for families.

Another impressive characteristic of the Miele KM5773 is its intuitive touch control interface. The sleek, minimalistic design is complemented by an easy-to-use control panel, allowing for seamless adjustment of settings and timer functions. Users can easily set cooking times, adjust power levels, and switch between different cooking zones with a simple touch.

Additionally, the KM5773 features Miele’s innovative CleanCover design, which ensures that the cooktop remains easy to clean. The smooth glass surface is resistant to scratches and stains, while the absence of protruding elements reduces food buildup, facilitating quick wipe-down after cooking.

In summary, the Miele KM5773 induction cooktop showcases cutting-edge technology, versatile cooking options, and user-friendly features. Its efficient performance, safety attributes, and elegant design make it an excellent addition to any modern kitchen, elevating the cooking experience for everyone from home cooks to culinary professionals. Miele continues to set the standard for quality appliances, and the KM5773 is a testament to their dedication to excellence in cooking technology.
