Installing A Surface-Mounted Hob - Miele KM 7404 FX Operating And Installation Instructions

Installation
Installing a surface-mounted
hob
 Create the worktop cut-out.
Remember to maintain the minimum
safety distances (see "Installation –
Safety distances").
 Seal any cut surfaces on wooden
worktops with a special varnish,
silicone sealant or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
 Attach the sealing strip provided
underneath the edge of the hob. Do
not apply the sealing strip under
tension.

Risk of damage from incorrect
connection.
The hob electronic module may be
damaged if a short circuit occurs.
The mains connection cable must be
connected to the hob by a qualified
electrician.
 Connect the mains connection cable
to the hob by following the
instructions in the wiring diagram (see
"Installation – Electrical connection").
 Feed the mains connection cable for
the hob down through the worktop
cut-out.
 Place the hob centrally in the cut-out.
When doing this, make sure that the
seal of the appliance sits flush with
92
the worktop on all sides. This is
important to ensure an effective seal
all round.
 If the seal does not sit flush with the
worktop in the corners, the corner
radius (≤ R4) can be carefully cut to fit
using a jigsaw.
 If an air intake-optimised base panel
is installed, position the hob so that
the fans are located above the cut-
outs.
 Connect the hob to the electricity
supply (see "Installation – Electrical
connection").
 Check that the hob is working.
