Miele Induction Cooktops
Induction Heating KM 5700 Series
Miele's
induction cooktops offer a distinctive, non-contact method of heating
using magnetic fields to transfer energy directly to cookware.
The induction element stays cool, while the target object heats up rapidly
for extremely efficient cooking.
Like gas, induction is exceptionally easy and quick to control. The ability
to precisely control the power makes induction perfect for all types of
cooking. It is highly reactive and exceedingly safe.
The cooking surface is cool in operation and only generates heat where
the pan sits. As soon as the pan is removed, the flow of heat stops immediately.
Induction Functions
Designated cooking zones on Miele induction cooktops are fitted with
a Booster function. If activated, the selected zone or zones will operate
on power setting 9 for ten minutes.
The different cook zone sizes allows the booster to be used for a variety
of pan sizes and ensure reduced heat-up times. For ultimate cooktop responsiveness,
the Auto Heat-up function gives an initial thrust to the normal power
output to bring the pan up to temperature rapidly.
The heat then reduces automatically to the chosen output level for continued
cooking.
Miele also offers a convenient Stop and Go function that, when activated,
automatically reduces the power level to the lowest setting for all active
zones.
This allows you to leave the kitchen quickly for brief periods'to answer
the door, for example'safe and sure that your meal is simmering'not boiling
over!
Sensor Controls
Individual heat levels are easily selected by simply touching the sensor
controls. As the electronic controls are located underneath the ceramic
surface, the control area has a smooth, flat finish that is very easy
to keep clean.
In several ways, Miele's induction cooktops can be modified to meet your
individual requirements. These include timer and power range settings,
audible tones and safety lock operation.
For instance, the timer can be used to select a time from 1-99 minutes
for any of the zones. The zone switches off automatically at the end of
the selected time duration, making cooking easy and safe.
Cookware / Size Recognition
A cooking zone will only heat up when a suitable magnetic metal pan is
placed on it. Proper cookware to be used on an induction surface needs
to be able to support a magnetic field.
The rule of thumb is that if a magnet readily clings to the base of the
cookware, that piece is induction ready. High grade magnetizeable stainless
steel, enameled cast iron is usually induction-friendly, while copper,
glass and aluminum are not.
The size of the pan is recognized, and heat is only generated where the
pan is detected, saving energy and time. The zone will automatically switch
off when the pan is removed and no more energy will be released, guaranteeing
safe, easy operation.
Safe and Sure
Miele induction cooktops deliver you total peace of mind to safeguard
your family while you create culinary delights. For example, if something
spills over into the control panel or you place something like a dish
towel over the controls, the cooktop will switch itself off automatically,
to prevent accidental burning or igniting.
As an extra safety precaution, the cooktop has pre-programmed maximum
operating times which depend on the power level being used. The cooktop
will switch itself off automatically if this duration is exceeded, when
a pan is in place and the power setting has not been altered.
You can also disable the cooktop by simply touching the lock symbol when
the cooktop is in use. This acts as a safety lock, preventing any unwanted
changes to settings. It can also be activated as a system lock when the
cooktop is not in use to prevent children from operating it.
