IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

￿Make certain that the power cords of small appliances do not come in contact with the appliance. The insulation of the cable could become damaged. Danger of electric shock!

￿To prevent damage to the cooktop do not use pots and pans with thin bases on the cooktop. Never heat an empty pan unless the pan manufacturer states that you can do so.

￿The control panel and/or the areas around the cooktop (the cooktop frames or surrounding (in the case of facet cooktops) may become hot due to the following factors: operating time, high output settings, large cook ware, and number of burners in operation.

￿Be careful not to drop anything on the ceramic surface of the cooktop. Even lightweight objects may cause damage.

￿Use the proper pan size. Select cookware with flat bottoms large enough to cover the heating element. Using undersized cookware will expose a portion of the heating element and may result in ignition of clothing or handles becoming hot. The proper size pot or pan will also improve efficiency.

￿Do not use pots or pans with pronounced edges or ridges on the ceramic cooktop. These could scratch the cooktop permanently. See "Selecting cookware" for more information. Grains of salt and sand can cause scratches. Make sure that the bases of any pots and pans are clean, free of any fat or oils and are dry.

￿Before using glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware or other glazed cookware verify that they can be used on a cooking surface.

￿Do not use plastic or aluminum foil cookware. It melts at high temperatures. Fire hazard.

￿To prevent burns and breathing difficulty, allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning. Some cleaners may produce toxic fumes if applied to a hot surface.

￿Keep the cooktop clean. Grains of salt and sand can cause scratches.

￿When wiping spills on a hot cooktop with a wet sponge or cloth, be careful to avoid steam burns.

￿Do not let flammable materials,

i.e. cooking grease, accumulate on the appliance.

￿Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

￿Do not allow either solid or liquid sugar, pieces of plastic or foil to fall on the burners when they are hot. If these residues are allowed to cool on the ceramic surface pitting or even cracking may occur.

KM 5820 specifications

The Miele KM 5820 is a high-performance induction cooktop designed for modern kitchens where efficiency and ease of use are paramount. With its sleek appearance and cutting-edge technology, this model is engineered to cater to both amateur cooks and professional chefs alike.

One of the standout features of the Miele KM 5820 is its powerful induction technology. Induction cooking uses electromagnetic energy to heat cookware directly, resulting in quicker cooking times and enhanced energy efficiency. Compared to traditional gas or electric cooking methods, induction delivers precise temperature control, allowing for perfect searing, frying, and simmering. The KM 5820 heats up in seconds and can go from a gentle simmer to a rolling boil with remarkable rapidity, which significantly optimizes meal preparation.

The cooktop boasts a generous cooking area with up to four cooking zones, providing ample space to accommodate multiple pots and pans simultaneously. Each zone features a residual heat indicator, ensuring safety by alerting users when the surface is still hot. The intuitive TouchControls make it easy to adjust settings quickly, while the sleek surface is simple to clean, as spills do not burn onto the cooktop.

Another notable technology featured in the Miele KM 5820 is its Smart Select functionality. This feature allows users to easily select a cooking zone and adjust the power level with a simple swipe across the control panel, making it user-friendly even for those who may be less experienced with high-tech kitchen equipment. Additionally, the cooktop includes a timer function for each cooking zone, enabling precise cooking times without the risk of overcooking.

Safety is also a key consideration in the design of the KM 5820. It includes a lock function that prevents unintended use, along with an automatic shut-off feature that activates after a certain period of non-use or if a zone is accidentally left on.

Overall, the Miele KM 5820 combines innovative technology with elegant design, making it a top choice for anyone looking to elevate their cooking experience. Its commitment to energy efficiency, safety, and ease of use exemplifies Miele's reputation for producing premium kitchen appliances that stand the test of time while delivering exceptional performance.
