Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check the appliance
~
for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if it
~
is 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.
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, the connection data
~
(frequency and voltage) on the data plate must correspond to the
mains electricity supply. Check that this is the case before
connecting the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any
doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a
~
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has
~
been fully installed.
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.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
~
considerble danger to users. Installation, maintenance and repair
work must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
A damaged connection cable must only be replaced by an
~
approved and suitably qualified technician.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
~
original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must
only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
~
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Using at the same time as other heating appliances that
depend on the air from the room
Danger of poisoning by 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 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.
Cooker hoods draw air in from the room in which they are installed
and from neighbouring rooms. This applies to extraction mode
cooker hoods and to recirculation mode cooker hoods with a
recirculation box located outside the room. If there is insufficient air,
an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may 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.
8
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 of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible in
the room.
This can be achieved by providing adequate ventilation such as air
inlets which cannot be blocked, in windows, doors and 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.
The ventilation must have the appropriate cross-sectional area to
ensure an adequate supply of air.
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 (GasSafe registered in the UK)
must be sought.
If the hood is being operated in recirculation mode and the air is
being directed back into the kitchen, the above restrictions do not
apply.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Danger of burning with open flames. Never use an open flame
~
beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé
or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the cooker hood
could draw flames into the filter. Fat particles sucked into the cooker
hood present a fire hazard.
When cooking with a gas hob, a build-up of heat can damage the
~
cooker hood.
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 pans which are suitable for the size of the cooking zone.
– Control the flame so that it does not spread out beyond the sides
of the pan.
– Do not allow the pans to overheat excessively (e.g. when using a
wok).
Always switch the cooker hood on when using the hob, otherwise
~
condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood
~
on fire. 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.
10
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.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could
~
reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Correct installation
Check with the manufacturer of your cooking appliance whether it
~
is safe to install a hood above it.
The minimum safety distance between the top of the cooker or
~
hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Appliance
dimensions" section of this booklet must be maintained, unless the
manufacturer states that a greater safety 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.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid
~
fuel stoves.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
~
material. These can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts
department or from builders' merchants.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent 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.
Accessories
Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this appliance.
~
Using spare parts or 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 packaging reduces the use
of raw materials in the manufacturing
process and also reduces the amount
of waste in landfill sites.
Packaging e.g. cling film, polystyrene
and plastic wrappings must be kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation!
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.
