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. Do
not install and use a damaged
appliance. It could be 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
household 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 if it
is correctly earthed. It is most important
that this basic safety requirement is
observed 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 strict
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.
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.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
During installation, maintenance and
~
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply.
Do not connect the appliance to the
~
mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension
lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
For appliances with an external fan
~
motor (...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.
The 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.
Using at the same time as other
heating appliances that depend on
the air from the room
Warning - danger of toxic fumes
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
This also applies to recirculation mode
if the air is being directed out of the
kitchen.
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.
If the hood is being operated in
recirculation mode and the air is being
directed back into the kitchen, the
above restrictions do not apply.
,
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 (GasSafe
registered in the UK) must be
sought.

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Do not 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. 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 using the hob, 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.
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".
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. Steam could reach
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Important information on the
~
handling of the battery in the remote
control:
– Do not short circuit or recharge the
battery, or throw it into a fire. Danger
of explosion.
–
Dispose of the used battery in your
recycling bin. Do not dispose of it
with the normal household waste.

Warning and Safety instructions
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.
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.
Accessories
Only use genuine Miele original
~
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.
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.

Description of the functions
The cooker hood works with
. . . air extraction:
The cooker hood draws in the cooking
vapours. First, the air is drawn in via the
edge extraction panels. It is then
guided through and cleaned by the
grease filters before being directed
outside.
The cooker hood operates with a
non-return flap.
This flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off, so that no
exchange of room air and outside air
can take place.
When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
. . . air recirculation:
(DUU 2900 conversion kit for
recirculation required)
The air is drawn in through the edge
extraction panels and then cleaned by
the grease filters. It is then directed into
the recirculation unit where it is also
cleaned by the charcoal filters. The
cleaned air is then recirculated back
into the kitchen.
Before using the cooker hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filters are in place. See
Cleaning and care.
...anexternal motor:
(EXT models only)
EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external motor located
outside the room.
12
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.
