To eliminate the risk of burns or fire
by reaching over heated surfaces,
cabinet storage space above the
cooktop should be avoided. If cabinet
storage is necessary, the risk can be
reduced by installing a venting hood to
project horizontally a minimum of 5"
beyond the bottom of the cabinets.
Because of the heat radiated it is
not recommend to install the
cooktop above a drawer. It should be
installed above a cabinet base unit with
a dummy drawer front. A protective
base should also be installed between
the dummy drawer and the cooktop.
This appliance is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
installation in these applications. Please
contact the Miele Technical Service
Department with specific requirements.
The cooktop must not be
permanently sealed into the
countertop when installed. The sealing
strip under the edge of the cooktop
provides a sufficient seal for the
countertop. See "Sealing".
Safety distance above the
appliance
As a general rule there must be a safety
distance of at least 30" (760 mm)
between the appliance and any
objects above it, e.g. cabinetry, venting
hood, etc. If the manufacturer of these
items states a different figure, always
adhere to the greater distance. These
measurements should be given in their
operating and installation instructions.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath a hood, e.g. wok burner
and electric cooktop and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.
