Miele KM82-2 - Manual (Page 7)

Warning and Safety Instructions
Use pots and pans that are the
same size as the cooktop heating
elements.
When high settings are used, re-
main near the cooktop in case
splattering grease or liquid boil overs
cause smoke.
Only use dry potholders.
Only use cookware suitable for
range-top service. Unsuitable
cookware may break due to sudden
temperature changes.
Always position the handle of the
cookware toward the center of the
range to minimize burns, and spillage.
Before removing pots and pans,
be sure to turn the cooktop ”OFF“.
Always heat oil slowly, so it doesn’t
bubble over.
When frying foods, make sure that
the food is as dry as possible to
prevent moisture from causing hot oil to
bubble over.
When shallow or deep frying, do
not overfill the pan with oil.
Wear proper apparel. Loose fitting
or hanging garments should never
be worn while using the appliance.
Do not attempt to repair or replace
any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in this ma-
nual. All other servicing should be re-
fered to a qualified technician.
Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother any fire or flame or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above or be-
hind the cooktop – children climbing on
the cooktop to reach items could be
seriously injured.
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean the cooktop.
The steam could penetrate electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
Save these instructions and review
them periodically.
Disposal of an old appliance
Before disposing of an old ap-
pliance, turn it off at the main
power connection and disconnect and
remove the appliance cord. This is in-
tended to prevent the discarded ap-
pliance from becoming a hazard.
Text highlighted in boxes is of par-
ticular importance and should be
read in conjunction with the Warn-
ing and Safety instructions.
