Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service technician.
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs
of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. 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.
Reliable and safe operation of this rangehood can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the rangehood must match the mains electricity supply in order to avoid the risk of damage to the rangehood. Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains electricity. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
EXT model rangehoods are connected to their external motor
using a special connection cable and plug connectors. These appliances may only be combined with a Miele external motor.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
This rangehood must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
Tampering with electrical connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. 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.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be
replaced by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard.

Warning and Safety instructions

Using at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room

Danger of toxic fumes! Great care should be taken when using the rangehood in the same room or the same area of the house as another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room. Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooktops and ovens.
The rangehood draws in air from the kitchen and from neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of operation:
- extraction mode,
- extraction mode with an external motor,
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the room. If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion. Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences. Risk of death!
8
Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by a heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when the rangehood and the heater are both operated simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa) is the maximum permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The diameter of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. 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 should be sought.
If the rangehood is being operated in recirculation mode, whereby the air is redirected into the room in which it is installed, the above restrictions do not apply.
9
Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

Never use an open flame beneath the rangehood. To avoid the
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the rangehood could draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
The rangehood can become damaged when exposed to excessive
heat.
– When using the rangehood over a gas cooktop, 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.
– Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
– Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the
pan.
– Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).
Always switch the rangehood on when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in the rangehood, which could cause corrosion.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
rangehood. When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc., do not leave the pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an open grill unattended when grilling.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use the rangehood 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 rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising
from the cooktop. Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the rangehood has cooled down.

Correct installation

Refer to the cooktop manufacturer's instructions as to whether a
rangehood may be operated above the cooktop.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a rangehood over solid
fuel stoves.
An insufficient safety distance between the stovetop and the
rangehood can result in damage to the rangehood. The minimum safety distances between the top of the stovetop and the bottom of the rangehood given in the “Installation” section of this booklet must be observed, unless the stovetop manufacturer states that a greater safety distance is required. If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the rangehood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the rangehood, select the greater distance.
The distances given in “Installation” must be observed when
fitting the rangehood.
Metal parts can have sharp edges which may cause injury.
Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut.
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
material. These can be obtained from builders' merchants.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct
no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.

Cleaning and care

There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out as described in
these operating instructions.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine 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 machine warranty.

Accessories

Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
12

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.

Disposing of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. 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 for electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

When Con@ctivity 2.0 is active, the rangehood always operates in automatic mode (see “Setting up Con@ctivity 2.0”).
If you wish to manually operate the rangehood, see “Cooking without Con@ctivity”.

Cooking with Con@ctivity (automatic mode)

Switch a cooking zone on at the
power setting you want.
The cooktop lighting will come on.
After a few seconds the fan will switch on, first at power setting 2, then it will switch immediately to power setting 1.
The rangehood selects the power setting automatically during cooking.
This is determined by the total output of the cooktop, i.e. the number of cooking zones in operation and the power settings selected.

Operation (automatic mode)

Examples for power levels 1 to B

Reaction time

The rangehood reacts with a slight delay because altering the power setting on the cooktop does not immediately result in a reduction or increase in cooking vapours.
Because the cooktop transmits the information to the rangehood at intervals, this can also cause delays.
The reaction can vary from a few seconds to a few minutes.
If you select a higher power setting or
are using several cooking zones, the rangehood will switch to a higher power setting.
When you reduce the power setting
or the number of cooking zones being used, the rangehood power setting will also be reduced.
27
Operation (automatic mode)

Cooking process

If for example you switch on a
cooking zone at the highest power level to heat a pan for frying and reduce the power level after approx. 10 seconds to 4 minutes *, a cooking process is recognised. (*60 seconds to 5 minutes for a HiLight cooktop.)
The rangehood switches itself on and when the cooktop power level has been reduced, the rangehood switches to power setting 3 and remains at that level for approx. 5 minutes.
After that the rangehood power setting is determined automatically by the Con@ctivity function.
You can select another power setting
manually before then.

Switching off

Switch off all cooking zones.
The rangehood fan will reduce its power level in stages over the next few minutes and will then switch itself off.
This helps to neutralise any lingering vapours and odours in the air.
– From the Booster setting, the fan
switches immediately to level3.
– From level 3, it will switch to level 2
after approx. 1minute.
– From level 2, it will switch to level 1
after 2minutes.
– After 2 minutes at Level 1, the fan
switches itself off.
– After another 30 seconds, the
cooktop lighting switches off.
The cooking process is then finished.
28
Operation (automatic mode)

Leaving automatic mode temporarily

To leave automatic mode temporarily during cooking:
Manually select a different power
setting, or
Manually switch the rangehood off, orActivate the run-on function on
the rangehood. The fan will switch itself off after the selected run-on time, and the lighting will remain on.
The rangehood functions can now be operated manually (see “Cooking without Con@ctivity”).

Returning to automatic mode

The rangehood returns to automatic mode:
if the rangehood has not been used
for approx. 5 minutes after selecting a power setting manually, or
You can also operate the rangehood manually for a complete cooking process.
To do so switch the rangehood fan on
before the cooktop. If the rangehood fan and the cooktop have been switched off for at least 30 seconds after cooking, automatic mode will resume next time the cooktop is switched on.
if the manually selected power setting
corresponds to the automatic one again, or
if the rangehood fan and the cooktop
have been switched off for at least 30 seconds. Automatic mode will resume next time the cooktop is switched on.
29

Operation (manual mode)

Cooking without Con@ctivity (manual mode)

The rangehood can be operated manually if:
– the Con@ctivity function is not
activated.
– you have temporarily deactivated the
Con@ctivity function (see “Temporarily exiting automatic mode”).

Switching the fan on

Switch the fan on as soon as you start cooking. This is to ensure that vapours are captured right from the start.
Press the On/Off touch control .
The fan will switch on at setting 2. The symbol and 2 will light up in the power setting display.

Selecting a power setting

For light to heavy cooking vapours and odours, select from power settings 1 to
3.
For short periods of cooking food with intensive vapours and a strong aroma, e.g. when searing meat, select Booster settingB.

Selecting the run-on time

It is advisable to run the fan for a few minutes after cooking has finished. This helps to neutralise any lingering vapours and odours in the air.
It also reduces the risk of residues accumulating in the rangehood and any resultant odours.
The run-on function allows the fan to continue to run for a pre-determined time before switching itself off automatically.
After cooking has finished, press the
run-on control while the fan is still running:
– Once: the fan will switch itself off
after 5minutes (5 lights up).
– Twice: the fan will switch itself off
after 15minutes (15 lights up).
– If you touch the run-on control

Energy saving tips

This rangehood operates very efficiently and economically. The following will help you to save even more energy when using it:
– Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when cooking. In extraction mode, if there is insufficient air flow the rangehood cannot operate efficiently and this causes increased operating noise levels.
– Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking vapours, so you can use a lower rangehood power level and therefore benefit from reduced energy consumption.
– Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce performance, increase the risk of fire and are unhygienic.
– Use the Con@ctivity function. The
rangehood will switch on and off automatically at the optimum power level for the cooking you are doing, which ensures low energy consumption.
– If you are operating the rangehood
manually, please note the following:
– Check the power level selected on
the rangehood. A low power level is usually sufficient. Only use the Booster setting when necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapours are being produced, switch to a high power level in good time. This is more efficient than operating the rangehood for longer to try to capture cooking vapours which have already been distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the
rangehood off after use. If cooking vapours and odours still need to be removed from the kitchen air after cooking, use the run-on function. The fan will switch off automatically after the selected run-on time.
35

Cleaning and care

Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the rangehood must be disconnected from the power supply (see “Warning and Safety instructions”).

Housing

General

The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and abrasion.
Please observe the following cleaning instructions.
All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using warm water with a small amount of washing-up liquid applied with a well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate into the
electronics and cause damage.

Important for appliances with stainless steel surfaces

(This information does not apply to the controls)
Stainless steel surfaces can be
cleaned with a proprietary non­abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel, e.g. Original Miele ceramic and stainless steel cooktop cleaner.
To help prevent re-soiling, a
proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel (Original Miele Care product for stainless steel) can also be used. Apply sparingly with a soft cloth following the instructions on the packaging.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides or solvents,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners or cream cleaners and abrasive sponges, as well as pot scourers or sponges which have been used previously with abrasive cleaning agents. These will damage the surface material.
36
Cleaning and care

Important for the controls

Do not leave soiling on the controls for any length of time.
Otherwise they may suffer discolouration or damage.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Observe the general notes on
cleaning earlier in this section.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning agents on the controls.

Grease filters and edge extraction panel

Fire hazard!
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular intervals.
The edge extraction panel and the re­usable metal grease filters in the appliance remove solid particles (grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of the rangehood.
The grease filters and the panel must be cleaned at regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air extraction and will lead to increased levels of soiling in the rangehood and in the kitchen.

Grease filter cleaning intervals

Grease which has collected in the rangehood hardens over time and makes cleaning more difficult. It is therefore recommended that the edge extraction panel and the grease filters should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3–4 weeks) to avoid a build-up of grease.
The operating hours counter will remind you to clean the edge extraction panel and the grease filters regularly via the grease filter symbol lighting up.
You can set the operating hours
counter to suit the type of cooking you do (see “Operation”).
37
Cleaning and care

Removing the panel and grease filters

The panel and grease filter can
fall out when you are handling them. This can result in damage. Make sure you hold the panel and
the grease filter securely at all times when handling them.
Open the grease filter retainer catch
and remove the grease filter.

Cleaning the panel(s) by hand

Follow the instructions under
“Housing”.
Hold the panel with one hand and
release the catch with the other hand. Lower the panel.
Lift the panel slightly upwards, and
then lift it forwards to remove it.
38

Cleaning the grease filters by hand

Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water and a small amount of washing-up liquid. Do not use undiluted washing up liquid.
Cleaning and care

Unsuitable cleaning agents

Unsuitable cleaning agents can cause damage to the surface of the filters if used regularly. Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents,
– powder cleaners or cream cleaners,
– aggressive all-purpose cleaning
agents or spray cleaners for grease,
– oven sprays.

Cleaning the panel and the grease filters in the dishwasher

Place the panel and the grease filters
upright or slightly inclined in the lower basket. Ensure the spray arm is not obstructed.
Use a standard household
dishwasher detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a wash temperature between 50°C and 65°C.
Depending on the detergent used, cleaning the filters in the dishwasher may cause the inside filter surfaces to become discoloured. This will not affect the functioning of the grease filters in any way.

After cleaning

After cleaning, leave the filters to dry
on an absorbent surface before refitting them.
When removing the filters and panel
for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.
Replace the grease filters, making
sure that the locking clips are facing down towards the cooktop.
If a grease filter is inadvertently
refitted upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slit to disengage the clip.
39
Cleaning and care

Resetting the grease filter operating hours counter

After cleaning, the operating hours counter needs to be reset.
While the fan is switched on, press
the operating hours control  for approx. 3 seconds until only 1 is flashing.
The grease filter symbol goes out.
If the grease filters are cleaned before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum:
Press the operating hours control
 for approx. 6 seconds until only 1 is flashing.
Lift the panel into the canopy and
hook it in at the back.
Tilt the panel upwards at the front
and press it into the locking clip.
The panel can also be turned 180° and fitted. Depending on where the rangehood is installed, this can make it easier to remove and refit the panel.
40
Cleaning and care

Installation recommendations

– When deciding on the safety distance
between the cooktop and rangehood, please note that a distance of 650 mm above electric cooktops may be preferable to give more working space under the rangehood.
– Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be using the rangehood most often. They should have sufficient space to work comfortably at the cooktop, and be able to reach the rangehood controls with ease.
– If positioned too high, extraction will
be inefficient.
– To achieve optimum vapour
extraction, the rangehood must be centred over the cooktop, not to the side or behind it.
Installation
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the rangehood and, if possible, it should be narrower, especially for safety distances greater than 750mm.
– The installation area must be easily
accessible. The rangehood should be easily accessible and easy to dismantle in the event that service is required. This should be taken into consideration when planning the position of cupboards, shelves, ceilings or features in the vicinity of the rangehood.
49

Connection for air extraction

Before installation, it is important
to read the information given on the following pages as well as the “Appliance dimensions” and the “Warning and Safety instructions” at the beginning of this booklet. This is particularly crucial when using the rangehood at the same time as a heating appliance that relies on oxygen from the same room, which could result in the build-up of toxic fumes.
The rangehood should be installed according to local and national building regulations. Seek approval from the building inspector where necessary.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible ducting made from approved non­flammable materials for exhaust ducting.
When using an external motor, make sure that the exhaust ducting is sufficiently rigid. The external motor can cause an underpressure which can result in the exhaust ducting distorting.
To achieve the greatest possible air extraction with the lowest noise level, please note the following:
– The diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150mm.
– If flat ducting is being used, the
cross-sectional area must not be smaller than the cross-sectional area of the exhaust connection.
– The exhaust ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
– Only use wide radius bends.
– The exhaust ducting must not be
kinked or compressed.
– Ensure that all connections are
strong and airtight.
Remember that any constriction of the airflow will reduce extraction performance and increase operating noise.
If the exhaust is ducted through an
outside wall, a telescopic wall vent or a roof vent (available as an optional accessory) 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.
Where ducting is horizontal, it must
be laid to slope away at at least 1cm per metre. This is to ensure that condensate cannot drain back into the rangehood.
If the exhaust ducting is to run
through rooms, ceiling space etc. there may be great variations in temperature between the different areas. The problem of condensation will need to be addressed. The exhaust ducting will need to be suitably insulated.
50
Connection for air extraction

Silencer

To achieve even further reductions in noise levels, a special silencer (optional accessory) can be fitted in the ducting system.

Air extraction mode

Air extraction with external motor

To minimise noise from the motor in the kitchen, the silencer should be positioned in front of the external motor if possible, or, if the ducting is long, above the exhaust connection inside the rangehood . In the case of an external motor located inside the house, fitting a silencer behind the external motor reduces the noise of the motor outside the house.
The silencer not only reduces noise from the motor outside the house, but also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic noise). For this reason, the silencer must be positioned as close as possible to the ducting exit .
51

Electrical connection

All electrical work must be undertaken by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety and building code regulations. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous, for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable. Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation or repair work has been carried out.
The rangehood must be connected to a suitably earthed socket (AC 230 V, 50Hz).
For extra safety it is advisable to install a residual current device (RCD) with a trip current of 30 mA.
Connection of this appliance must be made via a suitable isolator switch which provides disconnection on all poles and which complies with national and local safety regulations. The isolator switch should be easily accessible after the appliance has been built in.
If the mains socket is not accessible after installation, an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles. There must be an all-pole contact gap of 3 mm in the switch (including switch, fuses and relays).
The connection data is given on the data plate (See “After sales service”). Ensure that this data matches the household mains supply.
