Warning and Safety instructions
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess
ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
it is switched off at the wall socket
–
and the plug removed (pull on the
plug, not the cable),
the fuse from the fused spur connec
–
tion unit is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
-
Use
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood. To avoid the dan
ger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an
open flame under the cooker hood.
When switched on, the cooker hood
could draw flames into the filter. Fat
particles drawn into the cooker hood
present a fire hazard.
When using the cooker hood over
a gas hob, ensure that any burners
in use are always covered by a pan;
otherwise flames could be drawn up by
the suction of the cooker hood, parts of
-
which could then be damaged.
Always switch the cooker hood on
when a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the
hood, which could cause corrosion.
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 ig
nite and could set the cooker hood on
fire.
-
-
Do not use the cooker hood without
the grease filters in place. This way
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt
getting into the appliance and hinder
ing its smooth operation.
The filters should be regularly
cleaned or changed as appropri
ate. Saturated filters are a fire hazard.
(See Cleaning and care).
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean this appliance. Pressurised
steam could reach the electrical com
ponents and cause a short circuit.

Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
The minimum safety distance be
tween the top of the cooker/hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood
should be at least:
– 450 mm above electric hobs and
cookers,
– 650 mm above gas hobs and cookers,
– 650 mm above an open grill
from our range
For non-Miele cooking appliances,
maintain the safety distance as recom
mended by the manufacturer in their In
stallation and Operating instructions.
If more than one 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.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable material.
These can be obtained from the Miele
Spare Parts department or from build
ers’ merchants.
The appliance must not be con
nected 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.
-
-
-
Using at the same time as other heat
ing appliances that depend on the air
from the room
-
Warning - danger of 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 the 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 extrac
tion ducting. When used in extraction
mode, the appliance draws air in from
the room in which it is installed and
from neighbouring rooms. If there is in
sufficient air an underpressure will oc
cur. The heating appliance may be
starved of oxygen, impairing combus
tion.
Harmful gases such as carbon mon
oxide could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room with potentially fatal
consequences.

Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation, and
to prevent gases given off by the heat
ing appliances from being drawn back
into the room when the extractor and
the heater are in operation simulta
neously, 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 appli
ance 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 ac
count. If in any doubt, the advice of
a competent builder or, for gas, a
"Corgi" installer, must be sought.
-
-
-
If adequate ventilation can only be
achieved through an open window, a
window contact switch must be fitted.
This ensures that the hood can only be
operated when the window is opened
wide enough.
The advice of a competent builder must
be sought. The cooker hood is then
ready for use. A window contact switch
kit is available from good builders mer
chants.
Take care when ventilating the room
through an open window that ventilation
is not impaired by a closed blind or cur
tain.
If the hood is being operated in
recirculation mode, the above restrictions do not apply.
Disposal of your old appliance
Before discarding an old appli-
ance, switch off and disconnect it
from the power supply. Cut off and ren
der any plug useless. Cut off the cable
directly behind the appliance to prevent
misuse.
This should be done by a competent
person.
The manufacturer cannot be held lia
ble for damage caused by non-com
pliance with these Warning and
Safety instructions.

The cooker hood will run at the
powersetting most recently selected.
Selecting the power level
You can select one of four power levels
with the sliding switch j depending on
how much the air needs to be filtered.
Levels "1" to "3" are suitable for normal
use.
When frying or cooking food with a
strong aroma you can set the sliding
switch j to the Intensive "IS" setting for
a short period.
After cooking
If the air still needs to be cleared after
cooking, we recommend letting the
cooker hood continue to run for a further ten minutes.
Switching the lighting on and off
The hob lighting h can be switched on
and off independently of the fan.
"0" – lighting off
"1" – lighting off

Brief description
The cooker hood 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 must be fitted.
The non-return flap is designed to pre
vent the exchange of room and outside
air taking place.
This flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off.
When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the cooking vapours to be blown directly outside.
. . . air recirculation:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by a charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
-
through grilles in the top of the cooker
hood extension piece.
-
Charcoal filters are available to order
through your Dealer or the Miele Spare
Parts Dept (see back cover for contact
details and "Technical data" for model
number).
Before using the cooker hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filter is in place, see
"Cleaning and care".
