Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous
Or Explosive Materials And Vapors.
This appliance is designed to vent cooking smoke / odors only.
Be certain your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this appliance, continuity must exist between the appliance and an effective grounding system. It is imperative that this basic safety requirement be met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused by the lack, or inadequacy of, an effective grounding system.
Before connecting the appliance to the power supply make sure that
the voltage and frequency listed on the data plate correspond with the household electrical supply. This data must correspond to prevent machine damage. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.

Warning and Safety instructions
This equipment is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans or aircraft. However, under certain conditions it may be possible for an installation in these applications. Please contact the nearest Miele dealer or the Miele Technical Service Department with specific requirements.
Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging the unit or manu-
ally "tripping" the circuit breaker.
Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it from the power supply and remove the power cord and
any doors to prevent hazards.
Use
Do not allow children to play with or operate the appliance or its con-
trols. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.
Be careful when preparing a flambé beneath the hood.
Flames may be drawn up into the hood by the suction or grease filters may catch fire.
Never operate gas burners without pots.
Do not leave cooking surfaces unattended while in use. Overheated
food, oil and grease can catch fire.
Do not use the hood without the grease filters in place.
Clean the grease filters regularly. Dirty filters are a fire hazard.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the hood. Steam could pene-
trate electrical components and cause a short circuit.
In areas subject to infestation by cockroaches or other pest, keep
the appliance and its surroundings clean at all times. Any damage caused by cockroaches or other pest will not be covered under warranty.
Installation
When installing the hood, make sure that the following minimum
safety distances between Miele cooktops and the hood are maintained.
–22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
–26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
–26" (65 cm) above an open grill
For non-Miele cooking appliances maintain the safety distances recommended by the cooktop manufacturer in their installation and operating instructions.
If there is more than one appliance beneath the hood and they have different minimum safety distances always select the greater distance.

Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not install this hood over cooktops burning solid fuel.
Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable
materials.
Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, in-
active chimney or vent flue.
Make sure that the airflow in the room is sufficient for combustion
and exhausting of all non-electric heating appliances (water heaters, gas cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise backdrafts may occur. Follow the heating manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards or those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), or the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). If in doubt, consult an experienced professional.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

Be careful to prevent burns.
If the flames do not go out immediately, evacuate and call the fire department.
Never pick up a flaming pan -
You may be burned.
Do not use water, including wet dishcloths or towels - a violent
steam explosion will result.
Use an extinguisher only if:
–You know you have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.
–The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.
–The fire department is being called.
–You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-com- pliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Functional description
The ventilation hood works by air extraction. The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.

1 indicator = less than |
25 % |
2 indicators = less than |
50 % |
3 indicators = less than |
75 % |
4 indicators = less than 100 %
This information will remain stored in memory in the event of a power failure.

Operation
Reprogramming the grease filter timer
The grease filter timer is preset to 30 hours. This time can be lengthened or shortened to 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours.
–A time of 20 hours should be programmed in kitchens with frequent pan or deep frying.
–A time of 20 hours should also be programmed if the kitchen is only used occasionally. Otherwise grease which has accumulated over a long period of time will harden on the filters making cleaning more difficult.
^Press the On/Off button to turn off the fan.
^Press the Delayed Shut Down and grease filter buttons at the same time.
The indicator for the grease filter and one of the pmindicators will flash.
The lit pmindicator shows the programmed time:
1st indicator from the left |
= 20 hours |
|
2nd indicator from the left |
= 30 hours |
|
3rd indicator from the left |
= |
40 hours |
4th indicator from the left |
= |
50 hours. |
^Use the por mbutton to select the desired time.
^Store the selection by pressing the grease filter button.
If the procedure is not stored within 4 minutes of programming, the hood will automatically default to the "old" data.
