Miele KM 344 - Manual (Page 9)

The cooktop must not be perma-
nently sealed into the countertop
when installed.
If the cooktop is sealed into position,
the countertop or appliance could be
damaged if the cooktop needs to be re-
moved for maintenance or service. The
sealing strip under the edge of the top
part of the cooktop provides a sufficient
seal for the countertop.
