Miele KM2355 Questions and Answers


#1 Why is my Miele cooktop beeping?

The unit sounds faulty (this beeping issue is very common with this stovetop). If it's new, then it should be under warranty.

#2 Where are the controls on a cooktop?

The knobs and controls of cooktops are found on top of the unit. This allows an increased level of safety since they are more difficult for young kids to reach
