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.
