Gas Connection - Miele KMR 1124 G Operating And Installation Instructions


Connection to the gas supply
and any switchover to a different gas
type may only be performed by a du‐
ly authorized gas company techni‐
cian. This technician is responsible
for proper function at the installation
site.
In Massachusetts installation must
be performed by a licensed
plumber/gas fitter.
The rangetop must be connected
with its own shut-off valve.
The shut-off valve must be accessi‐
ble and visible, after the opening of a
cabinet door, if necessary.
The gas connection of the rangetop
can be to natural gas or liquid gas
(propane) according to the model.
Ask your gas company what kind of
gas is used and compare it with the
specifications on the data plate.
The rangetop is not connected to an
exhaust vent.
During the setup and connection of
the rangetop, observe the applicable
installation conditions, especially
suitable ventilation measures.
The gas connections must be ar‐
ranged in such a way that they are
not heated and damaged by the op‐
eration of the range.
In particular, make sure that the gas
hose lines and connection fittings on
the rangetop do not come into con‐
tact with hot exhaust gases.

Gas connection

The gas hose and power cord could
be damaged by hot spots on the
rangetop.
Make sure that the gas hose and
power cord do not come into con‐
tact with hot spots on the rangetop.
Flexible connection lines can be
damaged by incorrect routing.
Attach flexible connecting lines in
such a way so that they do not come
into contact with any moving kitchen
parts (e.g., a drawer) and are not ex‐
posed to mechanical stress.
The rangetop and the shut-off valve
must be disconnected from the gas
supply during gas pressure tests.
Disconnect the rangetop and the
shut-off valve from the gas supply
before performing a gas pressure
test at a pressure of more than
1/2 psi (3.5 kPA). Close the shut-off
valve of the gas supply before per‐
forming a gas pressure test at a
pressure of less than or equal to
1/2 psi (3.5 kPA).
Incorrectly sealed gas lines can lead
to a gas leak and thus to an explo‐
sion.
Seal all gas lines with a suitable
thread sealant.
Seal tightness tests on the rangetop
must be performed according to
manufacturer specifications.
