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.
The downdraft extractor must only be installed and operated in
combination with those SmartLine elements and hob units specified
by Miele.
Damage to the downdraft extractor can compromise your safety.
Check it for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged
downdraft extractor.
Reliable and safe operation of this downdraft extractor can only
be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The countertop extractor must not be connected to the inverter of
an autonomous power supply, e.g. a solar power system. When the
countertop extractor is switched on, power surges could result in a
safety switch-off. This could damage the electronic module.
The electrical safety of the downdraft extractor can only be guar-
anteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly. If in doubt, the electrical installation should be checked by a qualified electrician.
Before connecting the downdraft extractor 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 downdraft extractor.
Compare this data before connecting the appliance to the mains.
Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Multi-socket adapters and extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (fire hazard). Do not use these to
connect the downdraft extractor to the mains electricity supply.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
For safety reasons, this downdraft extractor may only be used
after it has been built in.
This downdraft extractor 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 downdraft extractor will endanger
your safety and may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Only open the casing 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 casing be opened.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the downdraft
extractor is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components
must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
The downdraft extractor is not intended for use with an external
timer switch or a remote control system.
If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is
supplied without a plug, the downdraft extractor must be connected
to the electrical supply by a suitably qualified electrician.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced
with a special mains connection cable by a qualified electrician (see
“Electrical connection” in the “Installation” chapter).
8
Warning and Safety instructions
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the downdraft
extractor must be completely disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply
when:
- the mains fuse has been disconnected or
- the screw-out fuses have been fully unscrewed or
- the plug (if present) is removed from the socket. To do this, pull
the plug not the mains connection cable.

Warning and Safety instructions
Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air
from the room
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the downdraft extractor 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 hobs and ovens.
The downdraft extractor draws in air from the kitchen and from
neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of operation:
- extraction mode,
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the
room.
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.
This could have potentially fatal consequences!
10
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 downdraft extractor 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.
If the downdraft extractor is being operated 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 not hazardous.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Open flames are a fire hazard.
Never use an open flame beside the downdraft extractor. To avoid
the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When
switched on, the downdraft extractor could draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
downdraft extractor.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers, etc, do
not leave the pots and pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an
open grill unattended when grilling.
Deposits of grease and dirt will prevent the downdraft extractor
from working properly.
Do not use the downdraft extractor without the grease filters in
place. Otherwise cooking vapours will not be cleaned.
Hot cooking vapours during cooking can cause the downdraft ex-
tractor to get hot.
Do not touch the casing or the grease filters until the downdraft extractor has cooled down.
Do not use the downdraft extractor for resting objects on.
Liquids can damage the downdraft extractor if they get into it.
Keep liquids away from the downdraft extractor.
Light objects can be drawn into the downdraft extractor and im-
pair its operation.
Do not place any light objects (e.g. paper towels) within close proximity of the downdraft extractor.
If you are operating a gas cooking element directly next to the
downdraft extractor, the FlameGuard must be placed between the
downdraft extractor and the element.
12
Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
The steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach live elec-
trical components and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the downdraft extractor.
There is a risk of fire if the cooker hood is not cleaned as de-
scribed in these operating instructions.
Accessories
Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty and Miele cannot accept liability.
13
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.
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, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that
may be stored on the appliance being
disposed of. Please ensure that your
old appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.

Depending on the model of the
downdraft extractor, the following options are available:
Extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter and directed outside.
Recirculation mode
(DUU 1000(-1) conversion kit required)
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter. The air is then directed into
the recirculation box where it is also
cleaned by the charcoal filters. The
cleaned air is then recirculated back
into the kitchen.
Modes of operation

Tips on saving energy
This downdraft extractor operates very
efficiently and economically. The following will help you to save even more energy when using it:
- It is important to ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated during operation. In extraction mode if there is insufficient air flow, the downdraft extractor cannot operate efficiently and
this causes increased operating noise
levels.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
power level and therefore benefit
from reduced energy consumption.
- Check the selected power level on
the downdraft extractor. A low power
level is usually sufficient. Only use the
Booster setting when necessary.
- When a large volume of cooking vapours are being produced, switch to
a high power level in good time. This
is more efficient than operating the
downdraft extractor for longer to try
to capture cooking vapours which
have already been distributed
throughout the kitchen.
- Switch the downdraft extractor off
after cooking.
- Clean or replace the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
20
Operation
Switching the downdraft extractor on
Insert the extraction grille.
Touch the sensor control.
The sensor controls light up.
If no further entry is made, the
downdraft extractor will switch itself
off after a few seconds.
Setting/changing the power
level
For light to heavy cooking vapours and
odours, select from power levels 1 to 3.
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapours and a strong aroma,
e.g. when searing meat, select Booster
setting B.
Switching the downdraft extractor off
Touch the sensor control.
The sensor controls go out.
If the downdraft extractor is not
switched off, it will switch itself off
12hours after the last automatic operation.
Run-on time
In order to rid kitchen air of steam and
odours, the downdraft extractor continues to run for 5minutes on the power
level that was set last. The power level
is gradually reduced during the run-on
time. The current power level pulsates
during the run-on time.
Touch the desired power level.
Booster
The maximum duration for the Booster
is 10minutes.
To switch it off early, set a different
power level.
Tip: To help release vapours effectively
with pans over 15cm high, place a
wooden spoon between the lid and the
pot.
21
Cleaning and care
Danger of burning due to hot
surfaces.
The surfaces will be hot after cook-
ing.
Switch the countertop extractor and
the cooking elements off.
Allow the surfaces to cool down be-
fore cleaning the countertop extractor.
Risk of damage due to moisture
ingress.
The steam from a steam cleaning ap-
pliance could reach live electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the countertop extractor.
All surfaces could be discoloured or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. All surfaces are
susceptible to scratching.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Never use abrasive sponges or
cleaning agents.
Allow the SmartLine element to cool
down before cleaning.
Clean the SmartLine element and ac-
cessories after each use.
Dry the SmartLine element thoroughly
after every cleaning to avoid limescale residue.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of the
appliance, do not use:
- washing-up liquid
- cleaning agents containing soda, alkalines, ammonia, acids or chlorides
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- stain and rust removers
- abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
- solvent-based cleaning agents
- dishwasher cleaner
- oven sprays
- glass cleaning agents
22
- hard, abrasive brushes or sponges
(e.g. pot scourers) or sponges which
have been previously used and still
contain abrasive cleaning agents
- melamine eraser blocks
Cleaning and care
Ceramic surface
Risk of damage by pointed ob-
jects.
The seal between the SmartLine ele-
ment and the worktop could suffer
damage.
Do not use pointed objects for cleaning.
Not all soiling and residues can be
removed using a solution of washing-up liquid. An invisible film can
develop that can lead to discolouration of the glass ceramic surface.
This discolouration cannot be removed.
Clean the ceramic surface regularly
with a proprietary ceramic glass
cleaning agent.
Remove any coarse soiling with a
damp cloth and more stubborn soiling with a shielded scraper blade
suitable for use on glass.
Then clean the ceramic glass surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel hob cleaner (see “optional accessories”) or with a proprietary
ceramic glass cleaner applied with
kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Please
follow the cleaning agent manufacturer's instructions.
Drip tray
Clean the drip tray if liquids have boiled
over or spilled into the downdraft extractor.
Remove and clean the grease filter as
described in the “Grease filter” section.
Hold the drip tray and open the
2clips (1x front, 1x rear). Carefully remove the tray from the casing, making sure it is kept horizontal.
Pour out the liquid.
Clean and dry the drip tray.
Clean and dry the accessible inside
of the downdraft extractor.
Fasten the drip tray back onto the
casing.
Replace the grease filter and the
cover on top.
Clean the ceramic surface with a
damp cloth, and then wipe dry. Ensure that all cleaning agent residues
are removed.
Spots caused by limescale and water
residues can be removed using
Miele's ceramic and stainless steel
hob cleaner.
23
Cleaning and care
Grease filter/extraction grille
The extraction grille and the reusable
metal grease filter in the vapour extraction fan collect solid matter from kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc.) and
therefore prevent soiling of the
downdraft extractor. Accumulated
grease solidifies over a longer period of
time and makes cleaning more difficult.
The grease filter should therefore be
cleaned at least every 3–4weeks.
Risk of fire due to soiled grease
filter.
Grease collected in the grease filter
can ignite.
Clean the grease filter regularly.
Removing the grease filter
Remove the FlameGuard if neces-
sary.
Lift up the extraction grille.
Carefully remove the grease filter. En-
sure that you do not tilt the grease filter.
Pour out any liquid which has collec-
ted at the bottom of the grease filter.
Cleaning the extraction grille and the
grease filter by hand
Clean the extraction grille and the
grease filter with a soft nylon brush in
a mild solution of hot water and a
little washing-up liquid. Do not use
concentrated washing-up liquid.
Cleaning the extraction grille and the
grease filter in the dishwasher
Place the extraction grille upright in
the lower basket.
Place the grease filter with its base
facing upwards in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not obstructed.
Use a standard household dish-
washer detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a maximum wash temperature of:
- 55°C for the extraction grille
- 65°C for the grease filter
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the grease filter in a dishwasher can cause permanent discolouration to the internal surfaces of the
filter. However, this will not affect the
functioning of the grease filter in any
way.
