Surface-Mounted Installation - Miele KM 7999 FL Manual

Surface-mounted installation

 Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see "Installation –
Safety distances").
 Seal the cut surfaces of wooden
worktops with a suitable sealant to
avoid swelling caused by moisture.
The sealant must be heat-resistant.
Make sure the sealant does not
come into contact with the top
surface of the worktop.
 Attach the sealing strip provided
underneath the edge of the cooktop.
Do not apply the sealing strip under
tension.
 Feed the mains connection cable
down through the worktop cut-out.
 Place the cooktop centrally in the
cut-out. When doing this, make sure
that the seal of the appliance sits
flush with the worktop on all sides.
This is important to ensure an
effective seal with the worktop.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone).
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner
radius (≤ R4) can be carefully scribed
to suit.
 Connect the cooktop to the mains
electricity supply.
 Check that the cooktop works.
