IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future user.

Read these instructions carefully before installing or using the Ventilation System.

This appliance is intended for

residential use only. Use the appliance only for its intended purpose.

This appliance complies with current

safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can lead to personal injury and material damage.

,CAUTION For General Ventilating Use Only. Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous Or Explosive Materials And Vapors.

This appliance is designed to vent

cooking smoke and odors only.

This appliance is suitable for

installation above gas or electric cooking surfaces.

,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a) Use this appliance only in the

manner intended by the manufacturer. If you have questions, contact Miele.

b) Before servicing or cleaning the

appliance, switch power off at the service panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally. If the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service panel.

c) Be certain your appliance is

properly installed and grounded by a qualified technician. To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is not intended for

outdoor use.

This appliance must not be used in

a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

d) Before connecting the appliance

to the power supply make sure that the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent appliance damage. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.

e) Installation work and repairs

should only be performed by a qualified technician in accordance with all applicable codes and standards. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.

f) Only open the housing as

described in the enclosed "Installation diagram" and in the "Cleaning and care" section of this manual. 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 operation faults.

g) Before discarding an old

appliance, disconnect it from the power supply and remove the power cord to prevent hazards.

Use

,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A COOKTOP GREASE FIRE:

a) Never leave surface units

unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings.

b) Always turn the hood on when

cooking at a high heat.

c) Clean the ventilation hood

frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter.

d) Use the proper pan size. Always

use cookware appropriate for the size of the cooking area.

e) Do not flambé or grill with an

open flame beneath the hood. Flames could be drawn up into the hood by the suction and the grease filters may catch fire.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A COOKTOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING

a) SMOTHER FLAMES with a close

fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal tray then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not go out immediately,

EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING

PAN - You may be burned.

c) DO NOT USE WATER, including

wet dishcloths or towels - a violent steam explosion will result.

d) Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:

1) You have a class ABC extinguisher, and you know how to operate it.

Do not allow children to play with or

operate the appliance or its controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.

Always turn on the hood when using

the cooktop to prevent damage from condensation.

Never operate gas burners without

cookware. Turn the burner off when not in use. Adjust the burner so that the flames do not extend beneath the cookware. Do not overheat the cookware, e.g. when using a wok. The hood can be damaged due to excessive heat from the burners and the cookware.

Do not use the hood without the

grease filters in place.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean

the hood. Steam could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit.

2) The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

3) The fire department is being called.

4)You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Installation

,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

a) Installation work and electrical

wiring must be done by qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards, including fire-rated construction.

b) Sufficient air is needed for

combustion and exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney of fuel burning equipment to prevent back drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’s guideline and safety standards such as those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

c) When cutting or drilling into the

wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

g) Do not install this hood over

cooktops that burn solid fuel.

h) Provided a larger distance is not

given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood given in the "Appliance dimensions" section of this manual.

If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.

If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.

i) Never connect an exhaust hood to

an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork.

j) Seek professional advice before

connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.

k) Any fittings, sealant, or materials

used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable materials.

d) Ducted hoods must always be

vented to the outdoors.

e) Do not use this hood with any

solid-state speed control device.

f) 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).

,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE USE ONLY METAL DUCTWORK.

The ventilation system can be operated

Description of functions

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

The recirculation mode requires a conversion kit and odor-free filter (optional accessories for the DA 6590 W only, see "Technical data")

Air is drawn in and cleaned by the glass or stainless steel panels, grease filters as well as an odor-free filter. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen through a vent at the top of the hood’s chimney.

In air recirculation mode, please ensure that the odor-free filter is in place, see "Cleaning and care".

–

If you often roast and fry foods, choose a shorter operating time.

Press the On/Off button K to turn the

fan off

Press the delayed shut down button

5 ¢15 and the filter button [ at the same time.

The grease filter symbol [ of the filter button and one of the power level indicators flash.

The 1 to IS indicators show the programmed time:

Indicator 1 ................20hours

–

If you tend to cook fat-free, choose a longer operating time.

–

If you cook only occasionally, it is better to choose a shorter operating time. This is because accumulated grease will harden over time, making cleaning difficult.

The factory setting for the grease filter timer is 30 hours. You can adjust the time to 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours.
