Warning and Safety instructions

This appliance meets statutory safety requirements. Inappropriate use could however lead to risk of accidents to the user and damage to the appliance.

Read the operating instructions before using this machine for the first time. They contain important information about the safety, use and maintenance of the machine. This will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.

Appropriate use of the cooker hood

The appliance is intended for do-

mestic use only. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper use or by non-observance of these instructions.

Technical safety

Before connecting the cooker

hood to the mains supply make sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.

The electrical safety of this ap-

pliance can only be guaranteed 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).

Installation work and repairs may

only be carried out by suitably qualified and competent persons to ensure safety. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.

The appliance is only completely

isolated from the electricity supply when: – it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed, (do not pull on the cable, only on the plug) – the mains fuse is withdrawn; – or the screw-out fuse is removed, (in countries where this is applicable). Ensure current is not restored to the appliance while 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)

Warning and Safety instructions

Use of the appliance

Never use an open flame beneath

the cooker hood - to avoid the danger of fire do not flambé or grill dishes. 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 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. Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood on fire.

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. Any damage which might be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the appliance guarantee.

Do not use the cooker hood with-

out the grease filter 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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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 – 65 cm above gas hobs. (Australia: 60 cm for electric and gas

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 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 con-

nected 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 professional advice.

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 techical measures, such as ensuring that the extractor can only be switched on when the heating appliance is switched off or vice-versa.

Disposal of an old machine / appliance

Before discarding an old machine

unplug it. Render the plug useless. Cut off the cable directly behind 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.

If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a “Corgi” installer must be sought. If the cooker hood is operated in recirculation mode (with active charcoal filter) then this is not a factor.

Operation

Pull out the deflector plate.

After cooking

If, after finishing cooking, there are still cooking vapours in the kitchen, it is recommended that the cooker hood be left on for some minutes longer.

Then switch the cooker hood off by:

moving the slide switch for the fan and the hob illumination to the ”0“ position.

Drop down the front facia panel or lightshield.

Set the slide switch for the fan to position ”l“.

The cooker hood will operate at the setting the power selector is set to.

Select a power setting strong enough to clear the air:

1 2 3 IS

Setting 1/2 = for normal operation

Setting 3/Intensive setting (IS) = for removing heavy cooking odours

Switch on the hob illumination if required.

push the deflector plate in.

Cleaning and care

Before any cleaning or maintenance work the cooker hood must be disconnected from the mains supply by – switching it off at the wall socket and removing the plug (do not pull on the cable, only on the plug), or – the mains fuse is withdrawn, or – the screw-out fuse is removed, (in countries where this is applicable).

Cleaning and care

To remove the grease filters push the filter holder retainers towards the middle.

Housing

The cooker hood housing may be cleaned using hot water to which a little mild detergent has been added. Dry with a soft cloth.

Never use a cleaner which scours or contains chlorine, acids or soda. These would damage the surface of the cooker hood. A mild, non-abrasive proprietary stainless steel cleaner is suitable.

Grease filters

Re-usable metal grease filters are builtin which remove solid particles (oil, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of the cooker hood. The grease filters can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by hand.

The grease filters should be cleaned regularly to ensure a trouble free operation of the extractor fan, at least every 1 or 2 months, or when they are visibly saturated or no longer effective.

An over-greasy filter can lead to danger or fire.

Take out the grease filters.

DA 272 i, DA 292 i only:

Press the clips at the side in using a blunt instrument and remove the retainers. Pull the filter cassettes and link pieces out for cleaning. Clean the edges of the frame by hand. The other parts can be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Clean the grease filters

– by hand: with a scrubbing brush in

hot water with detergent.

– in a dishwasher: place the filters

with the short side upright in the lower basket, ensuring the spray arm is not obstructed.

After cleaning leave the filters to dry for a while on an absorbent surface before putting back in place.

Cleaning and care

When removing the filters for cleaning also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the filter housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.

DA 272 i, DA 292 i only:

Put the filters back together. When re-inserting the filters ensure

that the locking device faces down towards the hob.

If a filter is inadvertently replaced the wrong way round, use a small screwdriver blade to unlock the filter through the slots.

Changing the light tube and/or starter

Unscrew the fixing screws at the left and right hand side. Whilst doing so hold the light cover securely and then take it out.

Release the light tube and the starter by turning them and then lifting them out of their holders.

Replace the fluorescent tube or starter.

Inserting or changing the active charcoal filter.

If the cooker hood is connected for recirculation, active charcoal filters must be inserted, in addition to the grease filters. These filters absorb normal kitchen odours.

Pull out the deflector plate and remove the rear grease filter.

When removing or changing the active charcoal filter push the filter holder retainers towards the middle. When inserting the active charcoal filters ensure that the locking device faces down towards the hob.

Cleaning and care

The active charcoal filter should be replaced when kitchen odours are not being absorbed, at least every 3-4 months.
