Miele KM 5993 Cooktop User Manual


 
~
Protect your hands when working
with a hot appliance - wear oven mitts,
and use potholders, etc. Make sure the
material is not wet or damp. This would
increase the transfer of heat to your
skin, and could cause burns.
~
Never flambé food under an exhaust
hood. The flames can set fire to the
exhaust hood.
~
Do not use the appliance as a
storage surface.
Do NOT use the appliance as a resting
place for cutlery or other items made of
metal
If the cooktop is on or accidentally
switched on or there is residual heat,
metallic objects can heat up and cause
burns.
Other items may melt or catch fire.
Damp lids can become attached to the
cooktop by suction.
Always switch the cooking zone(s) off
after use.
~
NEVER cover the grill with a cloth or
foil stovetop protector. It could be hot
enough to set objects on fire.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminum foil
or cookware. It can melt at high
temperatures. There is also the danger
of fire.
~
NEVER use the appliance to heat up
closed containers, e.g., canned foods.
The increased pressure can cause the
containers/cans to explode, and this
carries the danger of injury and burns.
~
Choose pots and pans with a
smooth bottom only. Rough cookware
can scratch the glass ceramic cooktop.
~
Never heat dishware when it is
empty, unless expressly permitted by
the manufacturer. Because induction
heating works so quickly, the
temperature of the cookware bottom
can quickly reach the ignition point of
oils and fats.
~
Keep the cooktop clean. Salt, sugar,
and grains of sand or dirt (for example,
from fresh vegetables) can cause
scratches.
~
Never place hot cookware near the
control panel. The electronic unit
underneath might be damaged.
~
Be careful that no objects or
cookware fall onto the glass ceramic
surface. Even a light object, such as a
salt shaker, can cause cracks and
chips in the glass ceramic.
