Installing The Hob - Miele KM 6113 Operating And Installation Instructions

Installing the hob

Preparing the worktop
^ Make the worktop cut-out according
to the dimensions given in the
building-in diagram. Remember to
maintain the minimum safety
distances (see "Safety instructions
for installation").
^ Seal the cut surfaces on
wood/laminated worktops with a
suitable heat-resistant sealant to
avoid swelling caused by moisture.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
No spring clamps are needed to
install the hob. The sealing strip
underneath the hob positions it
securely in the cut-out.
Any gap between the frame and
worktop will reduce with time.
Connecting the mains cable to the
appliance
The mains cable must only be
connected to the appliance by a
qualified and competent electrician
in strict accordance with current
local and national safety regulations
(BS 7671 in the UK).
^ Follow the instructions in the wiring
diagram (see "Electrical connection -
Wiring diagram").

Installing the hob
^ Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
^ Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal under the hob sits flush with the
worktop on all sides. This is important
to ensure an effective seal all round.
Do not use sealant (e.g. silicone).
If the corners of the frame are not
flush with the worktop surface, the
corner radius (ß R4) can be carefully
scribed to fit.
^ Connect the hob to the mains.
^ Check that the hob works.
