Warning and safety instructions
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug has been withdrawn
(do not pull on the cable, only on the
plug)
– the mains fuse is withdrawn
– or the screw-out fuse is removed, (in
countries where this is applicable).
Ensure current is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.
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 of the appliance
Do not let small children play with
the appliance or its controls or
operate it. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood. To avoid the
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill
over an open flame.
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 ignite and could set the cooker hood on
fire.
Do not use the cooker hood with-
out the grease 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 cleaned regu-
larly. A saturated filter is a fire hazard.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could give
rise to a short circuit or cause permanent damage to the surface and components, for which the manufacturer of
the cooker hood cannot accept any responsibility.
In countries where there are 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 appliance guarantee.

Warning and safety instructions
Installation
The distance between the top of
the hob and the bottom of the
cooker hood must measure at least:
– 45 cm above electric hobs;
Australia/New Zealand: 60 cm
– 65 cm above gas hobs;
Australia/New Zealand: 60 cm
– 65 cm above a Miele Open grill.
When fitted above an open grill
this cooker hood must not be used
in recirculation mode.
For non-Miele cooking appliances main-
tain the safety distance as recommended by the manufacturer in their Installation 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 higher 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
builders’ 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, take
professional advice.
6
Warning and safety instructions
When using the cooker hood at the
same time as another heating appliance which depends on the air in the
room (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters,
gas cooker, gas hob or gas oven), special care must be taken as the action of
the cooker hood extracts air from the
room, which these type of heaters need
for combustion.
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.
Appliances with external fans
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. Make sure the correct combination of the two appliances
has been selected.
Disposal of your old appliance
Ensure that disconnection from the
mains supply is carried out by a
competent person. Render any plug
useless. Cut off the cable directly behind the appliance to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused
by non-observance of these Warning and safety instructions.
N.B: 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 “Corgi”
installer must be sought.
If the cooker hood is operated in recirculation mode only, with active charcoal filters, these restrictions do not
apply.

Description of the functions
Description of the functions
The cooker hood works with
... Air extraction:
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and then directed outside.
The cooker hood is fitted with a non-re-turn flap (see section on "Installation").
This flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off. No exchange of
room air and outside air can take
place. When the cooker hood is
switched on the non-return flap opens
for the cooking smells to be blown directly outside.
... Air recirculation:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by active
charcoal filters. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through vents on either side of the extension piece on the tower.
... an external fan
The ...EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external fan which is
located outside the room.
The external fan is connected to the
cooker hood by a control cable and is
operated by the control panel on the
cooker hood.
Before using the cooker hood for
the first time in recirculation mode,
ensure that the active charcoal filters are in place, see section on
"Cleaning and care".

filters is set at the factory for a certain
number of hours. These can be
changed if wished. See “Altering the filter operating hours counter / Grease filters”.
The operating hours counter for the active charcoal filter is set to "unlimited",
as this is only relevant if using your
cooker hood in recirculation mode with
active charcoal filters fitted. If using recirculation mode the hours counter for
the active charcoal filter must be set to
a specific time. See “Altering the filter
operating hours counter / Active charcoal filters”.
At the end of the set period the indicator light above the grease filter touch
control or the light above the active
charcoal filter touch control lights up.
The grease filters must then be cleaned
and the active charcoal filter needs to
be replaced if the cooker hood is set

operating hours counter to suit the type
of cooking you do.
Select a short time if you roast or fry a
lot.
If you use very little fat for cooking, select a longer time.
If, however, you only cook occasionally
we recommend that you select a short
time because grease which has built
up gradually over a long period of time
will harden on the grease filters and
make cleaning more difficult.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning and care
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be disconnected from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
- it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug has been withdrawn
(do not pull on the cable, only on
the plug), or
- the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
- the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
Grease filters
The re-usable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles from
the kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc)
preventing soiling of the cooker hood.
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly to avoid a build-up of fat. Always clean the filters immediately the
grease filter touch control light comes
on.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.
Housing
The cooker hood housing can be
cleaned using warm water with a little
mild washing up liquid. Dry with a soft
cloth.
Never use cleaners which scour or
contains chlorine, acids or soda.
These would damage the surface of
the cooker hood.
A mild, non-abrasive proprietary stainless steel cleaner is suitable for cleaning the stainless steel surfaces.
An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
To remove a grease filter, press the
locking clips towards the middle of
the filter.
Remove the filter.
16
Cleaning and care
Clean the filters –
– by hand: with a scrubbing brush in a
mild solution of warm water with a
little washing up liquid.
– in a dishwasher: place the grease fil-
ter with the short side upright in the
lower basket, ensuring the spray
arm is not obstructed.
Some dishwasher detergents may
cause the surface of the metal filters to discolour. This discolouration
will not affect the functioning of the
filters in any way.
After cleaning leave the filters to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface
before putting them back in place.
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 replacing the grease filters
make sure the locking clips are
visible facing down towards the hob.
Should a grease filter be put back upside down, insert a small screwdriver
blade into the slits to disengage the
clip. Do not let the filter drop onto the
hob below.
After replacing the grease filters,
press the grease filter touch control
for approx. 4 seconds to reset the
operating hours counter.
Active charcoal filters
If the cooker hood is connected for air
recirculation,
ters must be inserted in addition to the
grease filters. These filters absorb
odours from the kitchen.
Remove the grease filters.
Unwrap the active charcoal filters.
Insert the filters into the rear of the
vapour canopy by the extraction
vent and swing them upwards at the
front (see illustration).
When inserting them for the first time:
Set the operating hours counter to
the time you require (see relevant
section under "Operation").
Always change the active charcoal filters when the indicator light above the
charcoal filter touch control comes on
or if the cooker hood is no longer absorbing kitchen odours sufficiently. Replace the filters at least every 3-4
months.

Fit the non-return flap supplied into
the exhaust socket in the motor unit
(this does not apply to ... EXT
models).
Non ... EXT models cooker hood are
designed to take 150 mm ø exhaust
ducting.
If 125 mm ø exhaust ducting has to
be used the reducing collar needs to
be fitted into the exhaust socket on
the motor unit.
For extraction connection secure a
flexible hose or an extraction pipe
with a hose clip to the exhaust
socket of the motor unit or to the vapour canopy. Lead the top end to
the open air through the wall or ceiling cut-out.
Proceed to the “Connection for air extraction” section.
28
Installation
Recirculation connection
If site conditions are not suitable for the
cooker hood to be used for air extraction the appliance must be connected
for recirculation.
Push the directional unit on to the
top retaining plate.
Fit the reducing collar ø150 / ø125
mm into the exhaust socket of the
motor unit.
Extension piece
Insert the mains supply plug into the
socket before carrying out further installation.
An extension piece allows the cooker
hood to be fitted at varying distances
from the ceiling (see section on
“Appliance dimensions”).
The extension piece has an opening on
each side. These are needed when the
appliance is being used in recirculation
mode.
Recirculation Extraction
Secure the flexible hose supplied to
the directional unit and to the reducing collar on the motor unit using
hose clips.
Insert the active charcoal filters (see
section “Cleaning and care”).
The active charcoal filters necessary for recirculation are available
from the Miele Spare Parts Department or your Miele dealer.
For recirculation the extension piece is
fitted with the openings at the top.
For air extraction the openings are not
required. In this case the extension
piece is fitted with the openings at the
bottom. They are then covered by the
tower shaft.
29
Installation
Bend the top hanging retainers approx. 45° inwards. This makes fitting
easier.
Cover the screw heads with the
cover caps supplied.
Only for recirculation:
Fit the recirculation grilles into the extension piece and into the directional
unit behind so that the slats point
downwards.
Recirculation Extraction
Pull the extension piece slightly outwards and push over the upper retaining plate.
For recirculation make sure that the
openings in the extension piece are positioned at the same height as the air
vents in the directional unit.
Screw the extension piece firmly to
the upper retaining plate at each
side with two 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws.
30
Installation
The paper protective sheets protect the
extension piece from accidental scratches when the tower is being fitted.
They are removed when fitting is complete.
Fold each protective sheet at the top.
Remove the protective foil from
around the sticking points.
Stick the protective sheet to the ex-
tension piece so that it is flush at the
sides and at the bottom.
A protective cardboard sheet protects
the tower from accidental scratching
during fitting.
Remove the protective foil from
around the sticking points.
Attach the protective sheet to the
front of the tower so that it protrudes
slightly below the bottom edge.
31
Installation
Fitting the tower
Hold the main shaft gently apart and
fit it over the extension piece.
Then push the shaft downwards approx. 2 cm into the canopy.
Adjust the shaft.
Loosen and then remove the protec-
tive sheets from the extension piece
and the tower shaft.
Now secure the shaft on both sides
with two 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws.
Cover the screw heads with the caps
supplied.

Danger of toxic fumes.
Please heed the “Warning and
safety instructions” to avoid the
danger of toxic fumes.
The cooker hood should be installed according to local building
regulations. Seek approval from the
building inspector where necessary.
Air extraction ducting
– The extraction ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
– To ensure efficient air extraction the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 125 mm.
If extraction ducting with a diameter
of less than 125 mm or flat ducting
were to be used the noise level of
the cooker hood would increase
and extraction would be less efficient.
Only reduce the diameter of the ducting if absolutely necessary, e.g.
where narrower ducting has already
been installed.
– When ducting is horizontal it must be
laid to slope away at at least 1 cm
per metre to ensure no condensate
drains into the appliance.
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
the open air the installation of a telescopic wall vent 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.
– Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
– Only use smooth pipes or flexible
hoses made from non-flammable materials for extraction connection.

Connection for air extraction
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 sweating or condensation will
need to be addressed.
The exhaust ducting will need to be
suitably insulated.
Condensate trap
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.
Condensate traps are available from
the Miele Spare Parts Department.
When installing a condensate trap
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the
exhaust socket.
