damage caused by non-compliance with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.

Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical
appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service
technician.
A damaged external motor could be dangerous. Check the
appliance for visible signs of damage. Do not use the external motor
if it is damaged.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is essential that this basic safety requirement is present
and tested regularly. If in doubt, consult a suitably qualified
electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this external motor can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate
must match the mains electricity supply in order to avoid the risk of
damage to the motor.
Compare this data before connecting the appliance to the mains. If
in doubt, consult a suitably qualified electrician.
Do not connect the downdraft extractor 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
For safety reasons, the external motor may only be used when it
has been fully installed.
This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the external motor will endanger your
safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Only open the housing as described in the installation instructions
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.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be
replaced by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably
qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
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:
– the mains circuit breaker is switched off, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is
applicable), or
– the plug is withdrawn from the socket. Do not pull on the cable,
but pull the plug to do this.

Warning and Safety instructions
Using at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air
from the room
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the external motor in the
same room or the same area of the house as another heating
appliance that depends on the air from the room.
Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct
exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They
include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooktops and ovens.
The external motor draws in air from the kitchen and from
neighbouring rooms.
If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating
appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction
ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences.
Risk of death!
6
Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by
the heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when
the external motor and the heater are both operated
simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa)
is the maximum permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot
be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The
diameter of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. 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 should be sought.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct installation
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
material. These can be obtained from builders' merchants.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning
gas or other fuels. Neither should it be connected to ducting which
ventilates rooms with fireplaces.

Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packaging
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally 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. Ensure that any plastic
wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of
babies and young children. Danger of
suffocation.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances. You are also responsible for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance prior to
disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.
