Induction

How it works

An induction coil is located under each cooking zone. When a cooking zone is switched on, this coil creates a magnetic field which impacts directly on the base of the pan and heats it up. The cooking zone itself is heated up indirectly by the heat given off by the pan.

Induction cooking zones only work when a ferromagnetic pan is placed on it (see "Pans").

Induction automatically recognises the size of the pan, i.e. heat is only generated in the area covered by the base of the pan.

The cooking zone will not work:

–if it is switched on without a pan in place, or if the pan is unsuitable (non-magnetic base).

–if the diameter of the base of the pan is too small.

–if the pan is taken off the cooking zone when it is switched on.

If this happens, ß will flash in the relevant cooking zone display alternating with 0 or the last power setting selected .

If a suitable pan is placed on the cooking zone within 3 minutes, the ß will go out and you can continue as normal.

If no pan or an unsuitable pan is placed on the cooking zone, the cooking zone and the hob will switch off automatically after 3 minutes.

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. Switch the zones off after use.

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.
