Sealing advice

The cooktop must not be permanently sealed into the countertop when installed. The sealing strip under the edge of the cooktop provides a sufficient enough seal.

If the cooktop is sealed into position, the countertop or the appliance may be damaged if the cooktop needs to be removed for maintenance or ser- vice.

Tiled countertop

Grout lines a and the hatched area underneath the cooktop frame must be smooth and even, so that the frame will sit flush with the countertop and the sealing strip underneath the edge of the upper part of the appliance provides a sufficient seal between the cooktop and the countertop.

KM 5987, KM 5993 specifications

Miele, a renowned German manufacturer known for its high-quality home appliances, has taken cooking to the next level with its KM 5987 and KM 5993 induction cooktops. These models are not just about modern aesthetics but are packed with advanced technologies and features, making them ideal for both amateur and professional chefs.

The KM 5987 and KM 5993 induction cooktops are designed with efficiency and precision in mind. Induction technology provides rapid heating and precise temperature control, allowing users to achieve the perfect cooking results. This innovative method heats pots and pans directly through electromagnetic energy, ensuring the cooktop surface remains cool and safe to touch, significantly reducing the risk of burns and ensuring easy clean-up.

One of the standout features of these cooktops is the Power Flex area. This unique design allows for flexible cooking configurations by merging two cooking zones into one larger area, accommodating larger pots or griddles. This versatility is particularly beneficial for preparing meals for family or entertaining guests.

Both models also boast Miele’s SmartSelect feature which intelligently adjusts the cook settings. Users can easily select the desired power level for each cooking zone by simply sliding their finger across the control panel. This intuitive interface enhances the cooking experience, making it easier to monitor and adjust the heat at a glance.

Another remarkable characteristic is the integrated timer function. Each cooking zone can be programmed with its own timer, allowing for synchronized cooking of multiple dishes. Once the time is up, the cooktop automatically switches off, ensuring food is cooked perfectly and preventing overheating.

Safety is also a top priority with the KM 5987 and KM 5993 models. The cooktops come equipped with features such as automatic shut-off, residual heat indicators, and child lock functions, providing peace of mind for households with children.
