Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing material
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and should be recycled.
Recycling packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.
Packaging e.g. cling film, polystyrene and plastic wrappings must be kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain materials which, if handled or disposed of incorrectly, could be potentially hazardous to human health and to the environment. They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Before installation, check the cooker hood for visible signs of damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance is dangerous.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with current local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been fully installed.
Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in the installation sheet and in the Cleaning and care section of this booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the housing be opened. Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user, and can cause operational faults.
Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised person in accordance with current national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.
A damaged connection cable must only be replaced by an approved and suitably qualified technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from the room
Warning - danger of toxic fumes
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.
These models may only be combined with a Miele external motor.
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).
In 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 guarantee.
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 extraction ducting.
When used in extraction mode, with or without an external motor fitted, the appliance draws air in from the room in which it is installed and from neighbouring rooms.
If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of oxygen, impairing combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn out of the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
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 cooker hood and the heater are in operation simultaneously, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible in the room.
Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which must not be blocked, in windows, doors and outside wall vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the cooker hood can only be switched on when the heating appliance 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 account. If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a qualified gas fitter (Corgi registered in the UK) must be sought.
If the hood is being operated in recirculation mode, the above restrictions do not apply.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
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.
Do not use the cooker hood without the 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 regularly cleaned or changed as appropriate. Saturated filters are a fire hazard. See "Cleaning and care".
When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time. Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.
Do not allow the pans to overheat excessively (e.g. when using a wok). The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat.
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.
The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising from the hob.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood has cooled down.
Do not use a steam-cleaner to clean this appliance. Pressurised steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Correct installation
Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Appliance dimensions" section of this booklet must be maintained, unless the hob manufacturer states that a greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the cooker hood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the cooker hood, select the greater distance.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
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 connected 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.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele spare parts and accessories with this appliance. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, this will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

Modes of operation
The cooker hood works with
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the stainless steel outer filter and the grease filter, and then directed outside.
If the on-site ventilation system does not have a non-return flap, then the non-return flap supplied with the appliance must be fitted
Having a non-return flap fitted in the ducting ensures that air, once ducted to the outside, cannot get back into the room again.
The 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:
(available as an optional extra with a conversion kit and charcoal filter: see "Technical Data")
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by the stainless steel outer filter and the grease filter 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 / Chartered Agent or the Miele Spare Parts Department. (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".
. . . an external motor:
(EXT models only)
EXT models are designed to be connected to an external motor located outside the room.
The external motor is connected to the cooker hood by means of a control cable, and is operated by the controls on the cooker hood.
