Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before installation, check the
~
rangehood for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. A damaged appliance is
dangerous.
Before connecting the appliance to
~
the mains supply, make sure that the
voltage and frequency details given on
the data plate correspond to the on-site
electricity supply, otherwise the
appliance could be damaged. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this
~
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with current
local and national safety regulations. It
is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested
regularly and, where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
For safety reasons, this appliance
~
may only be used when it has been
fully installed.
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.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user, and can
cause operational faults.
Installation, maintenance and
~
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
Faulty components must only be
~
replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
During installation, maintenance and
~
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
– it is switched off at the mains fuse,
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
–
it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn from the
socket, or it is switched off at the
isolator.
If the appliance is connected via a
plug: Do not pull the mains
connection cable but the mains plug
to disconnect your appliance from
the mains electricity supply.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not connect the appliance to the
~
mains electricity supply via a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
For appliances with an external fan
~
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.
This rangehood must not be
~
installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
In areas which may be subject to
~
infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all
times. Any damage which may be
caused by cockroaches or other vermin
will not be covered by the warranty.
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 rangehood 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 cooktops 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, 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 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.
6
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 extractor
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 and outside wall vents,
or by other technical measures, such
as ensuring that the extractor 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 must be
sought.
If the rangehood is being operated in
recirculation mode, the above
restrictions do not apply.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Never use an open flame beneath
~
the rangehood. To avoid the danger of
fire, do not flambé or grill over an open
flame.
When switched on, the rangehood
could draw flames into the filter. Fat
particles drawn into the rangehood
present a fire hazard.
When using the rangehood over a
~
gas cooktop, 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.
Regulate the flame so that it does not
burn up the sides of the pan.
Do not allow the pans to overheat
excessively (e.g. when using a wok).
The rangehood can become damaged
when exposed to excessive heat.
Always switch the rangehood on
~
when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in
the hood, which could cause corrosion.
Do not use the rangehood 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. See
"Cleaning and care".
The rangehood can get very hot
~
during cooking due to heat rising from
the cooktop.
Do not touch the housing or the grease
filters until the rangehood has cooled
down.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
~
this appliance. Pressurised steam
could reach the electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
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 rangehood on fire.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct installation
Refer to the rangehood or cooktop
~
manufacturer's instructions as to
whether a rangehood may be operated
above the cooktop.
The minimum safety distances
~
between the top of the cooktop and the
bottom of the rangehood given in the
"Appliance dimensions" section of this
booklet must be maintained, unless the
cooktop manufacturer states that a
greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is
fitted beneath the rangehood, and they
have different minimum safety
distances to the rangehood, select the
greater distance.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting
~
of a rangehood over solid fuel stoves.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
~
must be of non-flammable material.
These can be obtained from Miele or
from builders' merchants.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts
~
and accessories with this rangehood. If
spare parts or accessories from other
manufacturers are used, this will
invalidate the warranty, and Miele
cannot accept liability.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
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.

11
Description of the functions
The rangehood works with
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, the
non-return flap supplied with the
appliance must be fitted in the exhaust
socket in the motor unit.
Having a non-return flap fitted in the
ducting ensures that air, once ducted
to the outside, cannot get back into the
room again.
The flap is closed when the rangehood
is switched off.
. . . air recirculation:
(available as an optional extra with a
conversion kit and charcoal filter: see
"Technical Data")
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filter and then by a charcoal
filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through grilles in the top of the
rangehood extension piece.
Before using the rangehood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filter is in place. See
"Cleaning and care".
...anexternal motor:
When the rangehood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
Please note, the performance of
this rangehood hinges greatly on
the installed ducting to vent the
vapours. Poor choice of ducting
results in poor rangehood
performance. For ducting
recommendations, please refer to
the relevant section in these
operating instructions or contact a
specialised installer.
12
(Models ...EXT)
The EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external motor located
outside the room.
The external motor is connected to the
rangehood by means of a control cable,
and is operated by the controls on the
rangehood.

Cleaning and care
Before carrying out any cleaning
,
or maintenance work, disconnect
the rangehood from the mains
supply. Ensure that:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug withdrawn, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Exercise caution when changing
,
halogen lamps. They get very hot
during use, and remain hot for some
time after being switched off. Do not
touch the surface directly when
changing a lamp, as grease particles
from your fingers will adhere to the
surface and damage it.
The halogen lamps can also be
damaged if water is used to clean
them.
Wait several minutes after switching
off before beginning cleaning.
All external surfaces and controls can
^
be cleaned using the Original Miele
all purpose microfibre cloth, or with
water and a small amount of
washing-up liquid applied with a well
wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft
^
cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides or solvents,
– abrasive cleaning agents e.g.
powder cleaners or cream cleaners,
and abrasive sponges, e.g. pot
scourers or sponges which have
been previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents. These will damage
the surface material.
A range of Miele branded cleaning and
conditioning agents are available to
order through your Miele Chartered
Agent, from Miele or via the internet at
www.miele-shop.com.

General notes
The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasions. Please observe the
following cleaning instructions.
20
Important for appliances with
stainless steel housing
(This infomation does not apply to the
controls)
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using the Original Miele all purpose
microfibre cloth, or with a proprietary
non-abrasive cleaning agent designed
specifically for use on stainless steel.
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary
conditioning agent for stainless steel
can also be used. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions on the
packaging.
Cleaning and care
Important for appliances with special
finish
(Titanium and special order finishes)
Please follow the information given in
“General notes" earlier in this section.
However, please be aware that it is very
difficult to clean this type of surface
without causing minor marks to the
surface material.
This can become particularly
noticeable with darker colours and if
there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.
Controls
The controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is
left on them for too long. Remove
soiling straight away.
Please observe the "General notes" on
cleaning.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the controls.
Grease filters
The re-usable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen
vapours, preventing soiling of the
rangehood.
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to
avoid a build-up of grease but always
clean immediately if the grease filter
touch control lamp comes on.
An oversaturated filter is a fire
,
hazard.
^
To take out the grease filters, release
the locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter 45°, unhook it at the back and
remove it.
To avoid damaging the filter or the
cooktop below, make sure you hold
the filter securely at all times when
handling it.
21
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the filters with a soft nylon
^
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and a small amount of washing-up
liquid.
Do not use:
cleaning agents containing
–
descaling agents,
powder cleaners, cream cleaners or
–
abrasive all-purpose cleaning
agents,
oven sprays.
–
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
^ Place the filters as upright as
possible in the lower basket, with the
short sides upright, and wash on a
65°C programme, ensuring the spray
arm is not obstructed. If a Miele
dishwasher is being used, select the
Sensor wash programme.
^
Use a mild dishwasher detergent.
Depending on the cleaning agent
used, cleaning the filters in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discolouration to the surface.
However, this will not affect the
functioning of the filters in any way.
When removing the filters for cleaning,
also clean off any residues of oil or fat
from the now accessible housing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
When putting the grease filters back in
position, ensure that the locking clips
are facing down towards the cooktop.
If the grease filters are inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slits to
disengage the clip.
^ After replacing the grease filters,
press the grease filter touch control
for approximately 3 seconds to re-set
the operating hours counter.
The indicator lamp will go out.
If the grease filters are cleaned before
the operating hours counter has
reached its maximum, the grease filter
touch control should be pressed for
approximately 6 seconds to reset the
counter.
^
After cleaning, leave the filters to dry
on an absorbent surface before
replacing them.
22
Cleaning and care
Fitting and replacing the
charcoal filter
If the rangehood is connected for
recirculation, a charcoal filter must be
inserted in addition to the grease filters.
It is designed to absorb cooking
odours.
It is fitted in the canopy above the
grease filters.
New filters can be purchased from
your Miele Chartered Agent or from
Miele.
See back cover for contact details,
and "Technical data" for the model
number of the filter.
^ Before fitting or replacing a charcoal
filter, the grease filters must first be
taken out (see previous section for
instructions on how to do this).
^ Take the charcoal filter out of its
packaging.
Always replace the charcoal filter im
mediately if
the indicator lamp for the charcoal
–
filter touch control lights up,
or
if it is no longer effective in absorbing
–
kitchen odours.
It should, however, be replaced at least
every 6 months.
Used charcoal filters can be disposed
of with the normal household waste.
^ After fitting the new charcoal filter,
press the charcoal filter touch control
for approximately 3 seconds to re-set
the operating hours counter.
The indicator lamp will go out.
If a charcoal filter is replaced before the
operating hours counter has reached
its maximum, the charcoal filter touch
control should be pressed for
approximately 6 seconds to reset the
counter.
-
^
Insert the charcoal filter into the back
of the charcoal filter frame, then push
up into the frame at the front.
When fitting for the first time:
^
Set the operating hours counter to
suit your requirements (see
"Operation").
23
Cleaning and care
Changing a halogen lamp
Before any cleaning or maintenance
^
work, disconnect the rangehood from
the mains supply. Ensure that:
it is switched off at the isolator, or
–
it is switched off at the wall socket
–
and the plug is withdrawn, or
the mains fuse is disconnected, or
–
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
–
countries where this is applicable).
Exercise caution when changing
,
halogen lamps. They get very hot
during use and remain hot for some
time after being switched off. Let
them cool down before you change
them.
^ To access the halogen lamp, push
the lamp cover gently upwards. The
cover will open and can be pulled
down.
24
^
Pull the old halogen lamp out of the
connection socket.
^
Using a cloth or glove, push the new
lamp (12 V, 20 W, G4 cap) carefully
into the connection socket. Please
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
^
Push the cover back up and make
sure it clicks into place.
In the event of a fault which you cannot
correct yourself, please contact:
your Miele Chartered Agent or

Safety distance (S)
When planning the installation height
of your rangehood, the minimum
safety distance between the top of a
cooker or cooktop and the bottom of
the rangehood are as follows, unless
a greater distance is specified by
the manufacturer of your cooking
appliance:
600 mm above electric cooktops
650 mm above an open grill or deep
fat fryer,
650 mm above gas cooktops.
If this rangehood is installed above a
Miele Wok CS 1028 CombiSet
appliance, a minimum safety
distance of 760 mm must be
maintained between the burner and
the lower edge of the rangehood.
See "Warning and Safety" instructions
for further information.
When deciding on the safety
–
distance, please note that 650 mm
may be preferable above electric
cooktops to give more working space.
Account should also be taken of the
–
height of the person who will be
using the rangehood most often.
They should have sufficient space to
work comfortably at the cooktop, and
be able to reach the rangehood
controls with ease.
If positioned too high, extraction will
–
be inefficient.
– The height of the cooking appliance
below must be taken into account
when planning the installation height
of the rangehood.

Installation instructions
29
Installation
Before installation, it is important to
read the information given on the
following pages as well as the
"Appliance dimensions" and the
"Warning and Safety instructions" at
the beginning of this booklet.
This is particularly crucial when
using the rangehood at the same
time as a heating appliance that
relies on oxygen from the same
room, which could result in the
build-up of toxic fumes.
Installation instructions
See enclosed Installation sheet for
instructions on how to install this
appliance.
Dismantling
Should the appliance ever need to be
dismantled, follow the installation
instructions in reverse order as
described on the installation sheet.
A lever is supplied to assist with the
removal of the tower.
Protective foil
(on stainless steel appliances)
The housing components have
protective foil around them to prevent
them from transport damage.
Please remove this foil before fitting the
housing components. It can be peeled
off easily.
30
^ After loosening the fixing screws on
the tower, push the lever between the
tower and the extension piece to
lever the tower out of its fixings.
Important: To avoid the danger of
toxic fumes, please observe the
Warning and Safety instructions.
This is especially crucial when using
the rangehood at the same time as
another heating appliance which
relies on air from the same room.
The rangehood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
Connection for air extraction
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
–
hoses made from non-flammable
materials for the extraction ducting.
When using an external motor, make
–
sure that the exhaust ducting is
sufficiently rigid. The external motor
can cause an underpressure which
can result in the exhaust ducting
distorting.
To achieve the greatest possible air
extraction with the lowest noise level,
please note the following:
To ensure efficient air extraction, the
–
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150 mm.
– If flat ducting is being used, the
cross-sectional area must not be
smaller than the cross-sectional area
of the exhaust connection.
If exhaust ducting with a diameter of
less than 150 mm, or if flat ducting is
used, the noise level of the
rangehood will increase and
extraction will be less efficient.
–
All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable materials.
–
The exhaust ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
–
Only use wide radius bends.
–
The exhaust ducting should not be
kinked or compressed.
–
Ensure that all connections are
strong and airtight.
31
Connection for air extraction
Where ducting is horizontal, it must
–
be laid to slope away at at least 1 cm
per metre. This is to ensure that
condensate cannot drain back into
the rangehood.
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
–
the open air, the installation of a
telescopic wall vent or roof vent
(available as an optional accessory)
is recommended.
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be
directed in the flow direction of the
flue.
Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the
problem of condensation will need to
be addressed. The exhaust ducting will
need to be suitably insulated.
Condensate trap
(optional accessory)
For installations in areas where the
exhaust ducting is exposed to cold
temperatures, we recommend
insulating the exhaust ducting and
installing a condensate trap to collect
and evaporate any condensate which
may occur. Condensate traps are
available for C 125 mm or C 150 mm
ducting.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and, if possible, directly above the
exhaust connection. The arrow on the
housing indicates the direction of
air-flow.
32
rangehoods designed for use with an
external motor (...EXT models) have an
integrated condensate trap.
Connection for air extraction
Silencer
(DASD 150, optional accessory)
To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer can be
fitted in the ducting system.
...with air extraction:
The silencer not only reduces noise
from the motor outside the house, but
also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic
noise).
For this reason, the silencer must be
positioned as close as possible to the
ducting exit a.
...in recirculation mode:
The silencer needs to be positioned
between the exhaust connection and
the deflector b. Ensure there is
adequate space in the tower for fitting
it.
...air extraction with external motor:
To minimise noise from the motor in the
kitchen, the silencer should be
positioned in front of the external motor
c if possible, or if the ducting is long,
above the exhaust connection on the
rangehood d.
In the case of an external motor located
inside the house, fitting a silencer
behind the external motor e reduces
the noise of the motor outside the
house.
In all modes of operation, the most
effective noise reductions are
achieved if two silencers are fitted
one behind the other in the system.
33
Electrical connection
All electrical work should be
undertaken by a suitably qualified
and competent person in strict
accordance with current national
and local safety regulations.
Installation, repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be
dangerous, for which the
manufacturer cannot be held liable.
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance until after installation or
repair work has been carried out.
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. These do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance.
The connection data is given on the
data plate. This is visible when the
grease filters have been removed.
Ensure that this data matches the
household mains supply.
If the switch is not accessible after
installation, an additional means of
disconnection must be provided for all
poles.
For extra safety, it is advisable to install
a suitable residual current device
(RCD). Contact a qualified electrician
for advice.
Important
This appliance is supplied for
connection to an AC 230 V single
phase 50 Hz supply.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED
Connection of this appliance should be
made via a suitable isolator which
complies with national and local safety
regulations and the On-Off switch
should be easily accessible after the
appliance has been built in.
34
Operation with control module DSM 400
The Miele DSM 400 can be used to
combine the rangehood with other
components.
It enables the following:
Potential free connection
This is used for controlling another
appliance with the help of the
rangehood's On/Off button s.
The components of the central
extraction system are not supplied as
standard by Miele.
If in any doubt, the advice of a
competent builder must be sought.
Connection to a light switch
The control module can be used to
switch on the cooktop lighting on the
rangehood and also to dim it,
depending on model, via a light switch
in the house.
Installation
The potential free contact of the
DSM 400 a can be installed in an
...EXT model, for instance, which is
connected to a central extraction
system.
The contact can be used to activate a
motorised shut-off flap b which is
installed before the central extraction
system c.
The tower needs to be removed before
the control module can be fitted to the
fan unit.
All electrical work must be carried
out by a competent, qualified
electrician.
