Page 6
Warning and Safety instructions
The filters should be regularly
cleaned, or changed, as appropriate.
Saturated filters are a fire hazard.
Some washing-up liquids or dish-
washer detergents may cause the
metal filter to discolour. This discolouration will in no way affect the function
or fitness for use.
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 to components,
for which the manufacturer of the
cooker hood cannot accept any responsibility.
In countries 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.

by cockroaches or other vermin will not
be covered by the appliance guarantee.
Installation
The distance between the top of
the hob and the bottom of the
cooker hood (when the vapour guide is
completely retracted) must measure at
least:
– 45 cm above electric hobs
Only for U.K.: The distance of
65 cm between the cooker hood
and a gas hob is a minimum, which is
only permissible if the nominal heat
ratings given in the table below are not
exceeded:
Gas cooker maximum
nominal rating
one burner 2.7 kW
all burners 7.5 kW
oven 3.5 kW
Gas hob maximum
nominal rating
one burner 3.5 kW
all burners 10.3 kW
Gas hob with ceramic cover plate
The data given for maximum nominal (heat)
ratings do not aply to a gas hob with a ceramic
cover plate. In this case it is essential to refer to
the hob manufacturer’s data.
Safety regulations prohibit the fit-
ting of a cooker hood over solid
fuel stoves.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable material.
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.

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 types of
heater need for combustion.
In order to ensure safe operation, and
to prevent the 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.
only for 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 an old machine /
appliance
Before discarding an old machine
or appliance render it useless.
Ensure that disconnection from the
mains supply is carried out by a competent person and that the cable is
also removed from the appliance to
prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused
by non-observance of these instructions.
N.B.: The overall ventilation condition of
the dwelling must be taken into account.

Page 15
Cleaning and care
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be disconnected from the mains supply.
Depending on type of installation
either:
– switch it off at the wall socket and
remove the plug (do not pull on the
cable, only on the plug), or
– withdraw the fuse from the fused
spur connection unit (if accessible),
or
– withdraw the mains fuse, or
– remove the screw out fuse (in
countries where this is applicable).
Casing
The cooker hood casing may be
cleaned using hot water to which a little
mild detergent has been added.
Dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning and care
Grease filters
The re-usable metal grease filters in the
appliance absorb solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, thus preventing soiling of the
cooker hood.
At the latest, the grease filters should
be cleaned when the control lamp on
the grease filter switch comes on.
It is recommended that the grease filters are cleaned every 3 – 4 weeks to
prevent grease clogging the filter.
An oversaturated grease filter is a
fire risk.
Never use a cleaner which scours
or contains grit, soda, acid or
chloride. This would damage the
surface of the cooker hood.
A mild, non-abrasive stainless-steel
cleaner is suitable for cleaning the appliance.
To release the filters, press the catches towards the middle of the filter.
Remove the filters.
15
Page 16
Cleaning and care
Clean the grease filters
– by hand: with a scrubbing brush
in hot water with a mild detergent.
– in a dishwasher: place the
grease filters with the short side upright in the lower basket.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the grease filters in a dishwasher may cause discolouration of
the filter surface.
This has no detrimental effect on filter performance.
After cleaning, leave the filters to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface.
When removing the filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of
grease or fat from the filter casing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
When putting the grease filters back
in position, ensure that the catches
face towards the hob.
Should the grease be put back upside down:
Insert a small screwdriver into the
slits to disengage the filters.
Having reinserted the grease filters,
press the grease filter switch for approx. 4 seconds to re-set the operating hour counter to the time previously selected when the filter was
last used.

Installation
Motor unit
(only for appliances with an integrated
fan)
Fit the motor unit onto the screws.
Adjust the motor unit and secure.
Control unit
(only for EXT models)
With EXT models (external fan), the
control unit is fitted instead of the
motor unit.
Use the connection cable with 6 pole
plug to connect the cooker hood and
the external fan.
The non-return flap is integrated on
these models.
Only for DA 237:
If the height of the room requires utilisation of the maximum total height of the
cooker hood, the additional retaining
plate must also be fitted to ensure optimum unit stability.
With an 8 mm dia. bit, drill two holes
through the holes of the motor unit retaining plate in the wall and then
press the S 8 plugs into the holes.
24
Fit the retaining plate to the wall
350 mm above the motor unit, using
two S 8 plugs and two 5 x 40 mm
screws.

Installation
Deflector plate
Mount the deflector plate onto the
brackets of the motor unit.
Connection for extraction
Connect the vent ducting and secure to the exhaust connection with
a hose clip.
The top end of the vent ducting is directed outside through the wall or
through the ceiling.
Proceed with connection for air extraction (see section on "Air extraction").
Electrical connection
Secure the deflector plate by using
two 5 x 40 mm screws to screw the
enclosed fixing plate through the
motor unit retaining plate to the wall.
Connect the deflector plate plug to
the appropriate connector of the
motor unit or control unit.
Plug the mains lead into its socket.

Installation
Extension piece
An extension piece allows the cooker
hood to be fitted at varying distances
from the ceiling.
Slightly ease open the sides of the
extension piece and hook behind the
top retaining plate.
Chimney piece
A protective cover ensures that the extension piece is not inadvertently
scratched when the chimney piece is
fitted. This protective sheet is removed
following installation.
Remove the foil from the adhesive
strips.
Attach the protective sheet on the
side of the extension piece.
Push the extension piece flush
against the ceiling and screw from
both sides to the top retaining plate,
using 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws.
Cover the heads of the screws with
the caps supplied.

Ease open the sides of the chimney
piece, carefully slide it over the extension piece and hook behind the
extension piece and the retaining
plates.
Installation
Remove the grease filters from the
cooker hood.
Then slide the chimney piece down
approx. 1 cm into the deflector plate.
Adjust the chimney piece as necessary.
Remove the protective sheet by pulling upwards.
Secure the chimney piece from the
sides to the motor unit retaining plate
and, in the case of the DA 239, also
in the middle to the chimney piece
retaining plate. Use 3.9 x 7.5 mm
screws.
Cover the heads of the screws with
the caps supplied.
Secure the chimney piece to the deflector plate using the screw on the
interior of the deflector plate.
The screw also serves to adjust the incline of the deflector plate. Adjust as follows:
Turn the screw to the right to lift up
the deflector plate.
Reinsert the grease filter.

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.
Connection for air extraction
– All ducting, pipework and fittings must
be of non-flammable material.
– 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.
The use of flat ducting also reduces
the air extraction efficiency.
– 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.
The use of extraction ducting with a
diameter of less than 125 mm and of
flat ducting increases the noise level
of the cooker hood.
– Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
– Only use smooth or flexible pipes
made from non-flammable materials
for extraction connection.
– When ducting is horizontal it must be
laid to slope away at 1 cm per metre,
to ensure no condensate drains into
the appliance.

Connection for air extraction
Connection for extraction
Only use narrower diameter pipework where it is unavoidable, for
example where existing pipework
has to be used. The narrower the
diamater the lower the performance
and the noiser the operation.
Extraction connection should only
be carried out in accordance with
building regulations.
Connect the vent ducting and secure with a hose clip.
Proceed with the extraction connection.
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.
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 located vertically
and if possible directly above the
exhaust connection.

Connection to an external fan
Connection to an external fan
EXT model cooker hoods are designed
for use with an external fan, i.e. the fan
is fitted outside the room in a position
of your choice.
Electrical connection is made via a connecting lead with plug and coupling.
Separate fitting instructions are supplied with the external fan.
