Correct application

 This cooker hood is intended for use in domestic households and

similar working and residential environments.

 The cooker hood is not intended for outdoor use.  It must only be used as a domestic appliance to extract vapours

and remove odours from cooking. Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.

 The cooker hood can only be used by people with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children

 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the cooker

hood unless they are constantly supervised.

 Children 8 years and older may only use the cooker hood

unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the cooker

hood unsupervised.

 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the cooker hood and

do not let them play with it.

 Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be

kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause

considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

 A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs

of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed

when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

 Reliable and safe operation of this cooker hood can only be

assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

 Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, ensure that

the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

 Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a

multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

 For appliances with an external motor fitted (...EXT models) the

connection of the two units must be made using the connection cable and the plug connectors. These models may only be combined with a Miele external motor.

Warning and Safety instructions

 For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has

been built in.

 The cooker hood must not be used in a non-stationary location

(e.g. on a ship).

 Tampering with electrical connections or components and

mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in the installation sheet and in the Cleaning and care section of this booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the housing be opened.

 The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is

not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.

 Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when

genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

 If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced

by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from danger.

 During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance

must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.

Warning and Safety instructions

Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from the room

 Warning - danger of toxic fumes Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood at the same time and in the same room or area of the house as another heating appliance which depends on the air in the room. Such appliances include gas, oil, wood or coal-fired boilers and heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs, cookers or ovens which draw air in from the room and duct exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting.

When used in extraction mode, with or without an external motor fitted, or in recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the room, the appliance draws air in from the room in which it is installed and from neighbouring rooms.

If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance will be starved of oxygen, impairing combustion. Harmful gases could be drawn out of the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences.

Warning and Safety instructions

In order to ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given off by the heating appliances from being drawn back into the room when the cooker hood and the heater are in operation simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible.

Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, in windows, doors or outside wall vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the cooker hood can only be switched on when the heating appliance is switched off or vice versa. A ventilation brick alone is not generally sufficient to ensure safe ventilation.

The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken into account. If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas a qualified gas fitter (registered with an official gas safety body in accordance with national safety regulations, GasSafe in the UK) must be sought.

If the cooker hood is used in recirculation mode, where the air is directed back into the room in which it is located, operating a heating appliance which depends on the room air at the same time is no cause for concern.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

 Never use a naked flame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the

danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over a naked flame. When switched on, the cooker hood could draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.

 The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to

excessive heat.

– When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any

burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking

zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time. – Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner. – Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the

pan. – Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).

 Always switch the cooker hood on when a cooking zone is in use,

otherwise condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.

 When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc, do

not leave the pans unattended. Never leave an open grill unattended when grilling. Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood on fire.

Warning and Safety instructions

 Do not use the cooker hood without the filters in place. This way

you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance and hindering its smooth operation.

 The filters should be regularly cleaned or changed as appropriate.

Saturated filters are a fire hazard.

 The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat

rising from the hob. Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood has cooled down.

Correct installation

 Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to

whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob.

 Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid

fuel stoves.

 Insufficient distance between the cooker or hob and the cooker

hood can result in damage to the hood. The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Installation" section must be maintained, unless the hob manufacturer states that a greater distance is required. If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the cooker hood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the cooker hood, select the greater distance.

 The distances given in "Installation" must be observed when

fitting the cooker hood.

Warning and Safety instructions

 Exhaust ducting must be of non-inflammable material. Suitable

material is available from Miele specialist dealers or the Miele Spares Dept.

 The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or flue which

is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.

 If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct

no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.

Cleaning and care

 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.

The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Accessories

 Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this appliance.

Using accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your Dealer for advice.

Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
