Technical safety
Failure to observe the information contained in the installation in-
structions can lead to serious or fatal injuries for children and adults.
Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.
Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work may only be performed by a qualified technician.
A damaged rangetop can be dangerous. Always check for visible
signs of damage. Never use a damaged appliance.
Reliable and safe operation of the rangetop can only be guaran-
teed if it is connected to the public power supply.
The electrical safety of the rangetop can only be guaranteed when
it is properly grounded. Compliance with this essential safety re-
quirement is absolutely mandatory. If in any doubt, please have the
building's wiring system inspected by a qualified electrician.
Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been in-
stalled correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified techni-
cian.
Do not operate the appliance until it has been properly installed.
To avoid damaging the rangetop, make sure that the information
(voltage and frequency) on the data plate correspond to the build-
ing's power supply before connecting the appliance.
When in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Installation and maintenance of the gas connection must be per-
formed by qualified installers, service agencies or gas providers.
Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range-
top to electricity (risk of fire).
