Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.
Packaging (e.g. cling film, polystyrene)
and plastic wrappings must be kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation!
Dispose of or recycle all packaging
materials safely as soon as possible.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often 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 your
old appliance with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by a
competent person. If connected by a
plug, the plug must be rendered
useless and the cable cut off directly
behind the appliance to prevent
misuse. See the "Warning and Safety"
section of this booklet for further details.

Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
This appliance conforms to current
safety requirements. Incorrect use
can lead to injury and 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
domestic use only.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
the voltage and frequency details on
the data plate correspond with the
on-site electricity supply. This data
must correspond in order to avoid risk
of damage to the appliance. Consult a
qualified electrician if in doubt.
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national 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.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply make sure that
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
Installation work and repairs may
only be carried out by suitably
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk
assessment of the installation being
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.

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 removed (pull on the
plug, not the cable), or
the fuse from the fused spur
–
connection unit is withdrawn, or
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 whilst 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
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 using the hob.
Other 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 without
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 regularly
cleaned, or changed, as
appropriate. Saturated filters are a fire
hazard.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this
appliance. Pressurised steam could
reach the electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
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 cooker/hob and the bottom of
the cooker hood must measure at least:
450 mm above electric hobs and
–
cookers,
650 mm above gas hobs and
–
cookers,
650 mm above an open grill from our
–
range
For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain 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
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, take
seek 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 types of
heater need for combustion.
They could also draw exhaust air back
in from chimneys or ducting in
contravention of fire safety regulations.
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
Before discarding an old appliance
switch off and disconnect it from
the power supply. Cut off and render
any plug useless. Cut off the cable
directly behind the appliance to prevent
misuse.
This should be done by a competent
person.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by noncompliance with 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.
