IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Installation
, WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire only use metal ductwork.
When installing the hood, follow the recommended minimum safety
distances between a Miele cooktop and the hood:
–22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops,
–26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops,
–26" (65 cm) above an open grill.
If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.
For non-Miele cooking appliances maintain the safety distances recommended by the appliance manufacturer in their instructions. If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.
Be careful not to damage hidden electrical wiring or plumbing when
cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.
Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not install this hood over cooktops burning solid fuel.
Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable
materials.
Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.
Make sure that the airflow in the room is sufficient for combustion
and exhausting of all non-electric heating appliances (water heaters, gas cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise backdrafts may occur. Follow the heating manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards or those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), or the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
If in doubt, consult an experienced professional.

Functional description
The hood offers two modes of operation:
Air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Recirculation mode
Air is drawn through the grease filters and an active charcoal filter. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen through a vent at the top of the hood’s chimney.
Before using the hood in recirculation mode, ensure that the active charcoal filters are in place, see "Cleaning and care".
10
Operation
Turning the fan on
^Pull the deflector plate out about 2" (5 cm).
The hood will operate at power level "II".
Selecting the power level
Depending on how much the air needs to be filtered, there are four power levels available.
For normal cooking a low to medium level is usually sufficient.
For frying or cooking food with a strong aroma use the highest level.
Fan performance
The maximum air flow capacity is 625 cfm. Factors such as narrow duct diameter and bends will affect this value.
There will also be a slight decrease in airflow for hoods operated in recirculation mode due to the active charcoal filter.
Level 1 operates at 40% capacity Level 2 operates at 60% capacity Level 3 operates at 80% capacity Level 4 operates at 100% capacity

Cleaning and care
Before servicing or cleaning the hood, disconnect it from the power supply by "tripping" the circuit breaker or unplugging it.
Make sure power is not restored to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is performed.
Cleaning the casing
Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface.
^All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
^Wipe dry using a soft cloth.
Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate the electronics and cause damage.
Stainless steel surfaces
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner.
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner for stainless steel can be applied.
Grease filter
The reusable metal grease filters remove solid particles from the vented kitchen air like grease and dust, etc.
The hood has an external filter which is visible from beneath. An internal filter is situated above the external filter within the casing.
The grease filters should be cleaned every 3-4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights.
Always clean both filters.
Dirty filters are a fire hazard.
13
Cleaning and care
Removing the filters
External filter
^To remove the external filter pull the deflector plate out slightly.
^ Turn the fan off. |
^Holding the external filter at the front tilt it approximately 1" (3 cm) downwards and then pull it towards you to remove.
Internal filter
^Pull the deflector plate out to its full extension.
The internal filter will now be visible.
^Holding it by the handle pull it downwards to remove.
^ Cleaning the filters
–by hand: with a nylon brush in a mild solution of warm water and liquid soap.
–in a dishwasher: place the filters vertically in the lower basket, checking that the spray arm is not blocked.
^DA 329-1 i
The external grease filter can be folded and cleaned in the dishwasher by turning the latches as shown.
Depending on the detergent, cleaning the grease filters in a dishwasher may cause permanent discoloration of the filter surface. Performance of the filter will not be affected by this discoloration.
^After cleaning, the filters can be placed on a towel to air dry.
^While the filters are removed, clean any dirt or grease from the filter casing to prevent the risk of fire.
