IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Note to the installer:  
Please leave this instruction book  
with the consumer for the local  
electrical inspector’s use.  
The minimum distances given in  
these Installation Instructions must  
be observed in order to ensure safe  
operation. Failure to do so increases  
the risk of fire.  
recommended  
The cabinetry and venting hood  
should be installed first, to prevent  
damage to the cooktop.  
The countertop must be bonded  
with heat resistant (212 °F/100 °C)

not recommended.  
a A minimum distance of 2"  
(50 mm) from the cooktop to the rear  
wall and a side wall or cabinet must  
be maintained for safety reasons.  
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"  
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of the  
cabinets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
This equipment has not been  
designed for maritime use or for  
use in mobile installations such as  
aircraft or recreational vehicles.  
However, under certain circumstances  
it may be possible for installation in  
these applications. Please contact the  
nearest Miele Dealer or the Miele  
Technical Service Department with  
specific requirements.  
Safety distance above the  
appliance  
Because of the heat radiated  
downwards from this type of  
appliance we do not recommend  
installing it over a drawer. It should be  
installed in a cabinet base unit with a  
dummy drawer front and an additional  
protective barrier beneath the unit.  
If, in spite of this, there is a drawer  
directly underneath the cooktop, do not  
store aerosols, combustible liquids or  
easily flammable materials in it. If  
cutlery inserts are placed in the drawer,  
they must be heat resistant.  
As a general rule there must be a safety  
distance of at least 30" (760 mm), b,  
between the appliance and any  
flammable objects above it, e.g.  
cabinetry, venting hood or utensil rail.  
The minimum distance of combustible  
surfaces located above and to the side  
of the cooktop, c, is 18" (457 mm).  
If the manufacturer of these items  
states a different figure, follow that  
manufacturer’s recommendation.  
The cooktop must not be installed  
over a dishwasher, washer, dryer,  
refrigerator or freezer. The high  
temperatures radiating downwards from  
this type of cooktop could damage  
these appliances.  
If more than one appliance is  
installed beneath a venting hood,  
e.g. an electric cooktop and a gas  
wok cooktop, and they have different  
minimum safety distances to the  
hood, select the larger safety  
distance of the two.  
Make sure that the power cord to  
the cooktop does not come in  
contact with any mechanical parts once  
the cooktop has been installed.
