Installing The Surface-Mounted Cooktop - Miele KM 7404 FX Operating And Installation Instructions

Installation
Installing the surface-mounted
cooktop
 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.

Risk of damage from incorrect
connection.
The electronics of the cooktop may
be damaged if a short-circuit occurs.
The mains connection cable must be
connected to the cooktop by a
qualified electrician.
 Connect the mains connection cable
by following the instructions in the
wiring diagram on the cooktop (see
"Installation – Electrical connection").
 Feed the mains connection cable for
the cooktop 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.

 If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner
radius (≤ R4) can be carefully scribed
to suit.
 If a base panel optimised for air
intake has been installed, position the
cooktop so that the fans sit above the
cut-outs.
 Connect the cooktop to the electricity
supply (see "Installation – Electrical
connection").
 Check that the cooktop works.
