Residual heat indicator
Miele cooktops have a three-stage residual heat indicator for
each cooking zone, to remind you not to touch the cooking zones
when they are still hot, or to put anything heat-sensitive down on
them. It also allows you to make more efficient use of residual
heat to save energy.
Safety and system lock
The safety lock prevents power settings being inadvertently
changed during cooking.
The system lock prevents accidental or unauthorised switching on
of the cooktop, by children, for example. This function can be
activated when the cooktop is switched off.
Pan recognition
On electric cooktops with induction: if there is no pan on a zone
when the cooktop is switched on, or if the pan is unsuitable, the
power supply will not switch on, or will be interrupted.
Safety switch-off
A maximum operating duration is defined for each power setting.
If a cooking zone has been operating on the same power setting
for an unusually long time, it will switch itself off automatically.
Stop & Go
Someone at the door? With the Stop & Go function all
cooking zones can be reduced to power level 1 at the
touch of a single button, allowing you to leave the
cooktop unattended for a short time without something burning
or boiling over. When you come back to the cooktop, the previous
settings can be restored with another press of the button.
Timer
The cooktop timer helps to take some of the stress out of
cooking. You can, for example, set a duration for a cooking zone,
after which it will switch off automatically; or even use the minute
minder independently of cooktop functions.
