Warning and safety instructions
Warning and safety instructions
This appliance conforms to current
safety requirements. Inappropriate
use could, however, prevent a risk
of both personal injury and material
damage to the appliance.
Before installation and before using
for the first time read the operating
instructions carefully. They contain
important information on safety, use
and maintenance of the appliance.
This way you will avoid the risk of
accidents and damage to the appliance.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and pass them on to
any future user.
Correct usage
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by
improper use or or by non-observance
of these instructions.
Technical safety
sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply. If in doubt consult a qualified
electrician.
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is tested by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
qualified and competent persons to ensure safety. Repairs and other work by
unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not
be held responsible.

4
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and the plug has been withdrawn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– the mains fuse is withdrawn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".

Operation
Selecting the power level
Depending on how much the air needs
to be filtered, there are four power levels available. For normal cooking a
low to medium level is usually sufficient. For frying or cooking food with a
strong aroma the highest setting or "intensive level" is recommended.
The cooker hood is set to run on a medium level when it is switched on using
the On/Off touch control.
However, when the main switch is used
or after an interruption to the power
supply, the cooker hood will operate on
the power level last selected.
