Miele KM 2030 User manual

Installation Instructions
KM 2030, KM 2050 en - CA
Installation, repair and maintenance work should be performed by
a Miele authorized service technician in accordance with national
and local safety regulations and the provided installation instructions.

To avoid damage to the appliance, it
should not be installed until the
upper cabinet and exhaust hood
have already been mounted.
~This appliance is not connected to
an exhaust vent. It must be installed
and connected to the power supply in
compliance with the applicable
installation requirements.
~The room will need to be at least 20
m3in volume, with at least one door or
window opening to the outside.
~The countertop veneers must be
affixed with heat-resistant glue
(100 °C), so that they do not become
deformed or detached.
The wall strips must be heat-resistant
as well.
~Installation and assembly of this
appliance in non-stationary locations
(for example, aboard ships) should be
performed only by specialized
companies/technicians, to ensure that
the requirements for safe use are met.
~Because there is the risk of
flameover, a gas cooktop should
NEVER be installed next to a
deep-fryer. A minimum distance of 12"
(300 mm) must be maintained between
these appliances. Other appliances
may be build in directly next to the gas
cooktop.
~Storage cabinets above the cooktop
present a fire hazard.
~This gas cooktop is not authorized
for installation atop
refigerators/freezers, dishwashers, or
washers/dryers.
~Check to be sure that the gas line
and power cord will not come into
contact with any hot spots after
installation. Hot spots can cause heat
damage to the gas line and power
cord.
~The power cord and a flexible gas
line must be arranged in such a way
that they will not come into contact with
moveable parts in the cabinetry (e.g., a
drawer) or be subject to any
mechanical strain.
~Be sure to carefully observe the
clearance distances listed on the
following pages.
~Never use caulking unless it is
explicitly called for in the instructions.
The sealing tape for the appliance
provides an adequate seal with the
countertop (see the section on "General
installation notices").
SAFETY NOTICES FOR INSTALLATION
26

Upper clearance
For an exhaust hood above the
appliance, the safe clearance distance
indicated by the hood manufacturer
must be maintained.
If there are no specifications from the
hood manufacturer or if flammable
materials (e. g., a hanging cabinet) are
installed above the appliance, the
clearance distance must be at least 30"
(760 mm).
The maximum depth of cabinets
installed above the cooktop must be
13" (330 mm).
If there are various appliances with
different recommended clearance
distances beneath the exhaust
hood, e. g., a gas stovetop and an
electric cooktop, always choose the
greatest distance.
SAFETY NOTICES FOR INSTALLATION
27

When installing a gas stovetop, the
cabinetry or walls to ONE side and to
the rear of the appliance can be as tall
as you wish. However, on the other side
there must not be any appliance or
furniture that is taller than the installed
gas stovetop (see illustrations).
You must ensure that the following
minimum safety clearances are kept:
– 4" (100 mm) to the right or left of the
countertop cut-out to the next closest
piece of furniture (e.g., tall
cupboard).
– 2" (50 mm) from the countertop
cut-out to the rear wall.

How to make the countertop
cut-out
^Use the template to make a
countertop cut-out.
Be sure to observe the minimum
distance from the rear wall and from
the left or right to a side wall.
See the section on "SAFETY
NOTICES FOR INSTALLATION".
^Seal any wooden countertop
surfaces with a special varnish,
silicone rubber, or resin, to help
prevent swelling from moisture.
The materials used must be
temepature-stable.
If, during installation, you find that
the frame is not tightly sealed to the
countertop at the corners, then the
corner edges, ßR4, can be carefully
trimmed with a jigsaw.
How to install the gas stovetop
^Feed the appliance power cord
downward through the countertop
cut-out.
^Set the appliance loosely into place
in the cut-out.
^Connect the appliance to the power
supply (see the section on "Electrical
connection").
^Establish the gas connection (see the
section on "Gas connection").
^Use the supplied brackets to hold the
appliance in place.
Installation
31

Sealing
NEVER use sealing unless it is explicitly
called for in the instructions. The
sealing strip under the edge of the
upper part of the appliance provides a
sufficient seal against the countertop.
NEVER use sealing between the
upper appliance frame and the
countertop!
It will hinder access to the appliance
during servicing, and the frame and
countertop can be damaged as a
result.
Tiled surfaces
The grouting aand shaded area under
the cooktop frame must be flat and
even, so that the frame will lie evenly
and the sealing strip under the edge of
the upper part of the appliance can
provide an adequate seal against the
countertop.
General installation information
32

This appliance must be grounded
according to local or national codes.
All electrical work should be
performed by a qualified electrician
in accordance with local codes and
with the:
- National Electrical Code
ANSI / NFPA 70
for the USA
or
- Canadian Electrical Code Part I
for Canada
(CSA Standard C 22.1)
,WARNING
Disconnect the appliance from the
main power supply before
installation or service. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, make sure that
the appliance is properly grounded
after installation.
Power supply
The automatic ignition requires that the
appliance be connected to a 120 VAC,
60 Hz power supply. The supply line
should be protected by a 15 A fuse.
Actual power consumption (during
ignition only) is 25 W.
This appliance is equipped with a
78 3/4" (2000 mm) long power cord that
is ready for connection to the
appropriate outlet.
Place the power outlet so that it is
accessible after the appliance has
been installed in the countertop.
This appliance is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug to
prevent shock hazards. It should be
plugged directly into a properly
grounded outlet. Do not cut or
remove the grounding prong from
the plug. If the plug does not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a licensed electrician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of
this appliance, continuity must exist
between the appliance and an
effective grounding system. It is
imperative that this basic safety
requirement be met. If there is any
doubt, have the electrical system of
the house checked by a qualified
electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damages caused by
the lack, or inadequacy, of an
effective grounding system.
Note to the installer
Please leave these instructions with the
consumer or the appliance.

Installation and service must be
performed by a qualified installer,
service agency or the gas supplier.
This appliance must be installed
with its own shut off valve and the
included gas pressure regulator.
Both the valve and the regulator
must be easily accessible to the
consumer to turn on or shut off the
gas supply after the appliance is
installed.
This appliance and its individual
shut off valve must be disconnected
from the gas supply during any
pressure testing performed in
excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa), or
isolated from the gas line by closing
its individual manual shut off valve at
test pressures equal to or less than
½ psi (3.5 kPa).
Any pipe connections must be
made using a thread sealant
approved for gas connections.
Failure to correctly install these
items could lead to a gas leak and
subsequent explosion.
Leak testing of the appliance shall
be conducted according to the
manufacturer's instructions.
The gas connection must be made
in accordance with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, with
- the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA 54
for the USA
or
- the current Can/CGA B 149.1
and .2 Installation Codes for
gas
burning appliances for Canada.
Make sure that the maximum gas
supply pressure before the gas
pressure regulator is never more than
½ psi for both natural gas or LP gas.
The minimum supply pressure to get
the required gas input is
4" w.c. for natural gas:
10" w.c. for LP gas.
