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 under the cooker
hood. 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. 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 filter in place. This way
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt
getting into the appliance and
hindering its smooth operation.

Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for your cooking
appliance concerning the use of a
cooker hood over the particular
appliance.
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.
Safety distance between cooking
appliance and cooker hood
The minimum safety distances
between the top of a cooker or hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood are
as follows, unless a greater distance is
specified by the manufacturer of your
cooking appliance:
- 450 mm above electric hobs and
cookers,
- 650 mm above gas hobs and cookers,
- 650 mm above an open grill or deep
fat fryer.
If more than one appliance is fitted
beneath the cooker hood, and they
have different minimum safety
distances to the cooker hood, select
the greater distance.
Follow the cooker or hob
manufacturer’s instructions on the use
of flammable materials over the
cooker/hob when installing a wood or
laminate lightshield onto the cooker
hood.

Warning and Safety instructions
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, 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 such as carbon
monoxide could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room, with potentially fatal
consequences.
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.
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
"Corgi" installer, must be sought.
8
Page 9
Warning and Safety instructions
If the only way of ensuring adequate
ventilation is via an open window, then
a window contact switch should be
fitted.
The window contact switch ensures that
the cooker hood can only operate when
the window is opened sufficiently. A
window contact switch kit is available
from good builders’ merchants.
Take care when ventilating the room
through an open window that ventilation
is not impaired by a closed blind or
curtain.
If the hood is being operated in
recirculation mode, the above
restrictions do not apply.
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
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

Description of the functions
The cooker hood works with
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in, cleaned by 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 in the exhaust
socket in the motor unit.
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:
(air recirculation conversion kit
required)
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filter and then by a charcoalfilter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen.
Charcoal filters are available to order
through your Dealer 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".
12
Page 13
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work is carried out, disconnect the
cooker hood from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or
– the fuse is withdrawn from the
fused spur connection unit, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn,or
– the screw-out fuse is removed
(in countries where this is
applicable).
A microfibre “E-Cloth” is available from
the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,
which is suitable for cleaning surfaces
such as stainless steel, glass, plastic
and chrome without the use of
chemicals. It can be washed 300 times.

General notes
Warning: The surfaces and controls
are susceptible to scratches and
abrasions. Please observe the
following cleaning instructions.
Cleaning and care
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.
Important for appliances with
stainless steel housing
(This infomation does not apply to the
controls).
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with a proprietary non-abrasive
cleaning agent designed specifically
for use on stainless steel.
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary
cleaning agent for stainless steel such
as Neoblank (available from the Miele
UK Spare Parts Department) can also
be used. Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions, and apply sparingly with
an even pressure in the direction of the
"grain".
^
All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using warm water with a
little washing-up liquid applied with a
well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
^
Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft
cloth.
Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.
Controls
The controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is
left on them for too long. Remove
soiling straight away.

– cleaning agents containing
The re-usable metal grease filter in the
appliance removes solid particles from
the kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc)
preventing soiling of the cooker hood.
To avoid a build-up of fat, it should be
cleaned every 3-4 weeks on average,
but sooner if necessary.
An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
To avoid damaging the filter or the
hob below, make sure you hold the
filter securely at all times when
handling it.
^ Slide the switch for the fan to position
“0”.
^ Clean the filter
– by hand: with a soft nylon brush,

on a 65°C programme, ensuring that
the spray arm is not obstructed.
14
Page 15
Depending on the cleaning agent
used, cleaning the grease filter in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discolouration to the surface.
However, this will not affect the
functioning of the filter in any way.
After cleaning, leave the filter to dry
^
for a while on an absorbent surface
before putting it back in place.
When removing the filter for cleaning,
^
also clean off any residues of oil or fat
from the now accessible housing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
Cleaning and care
Fitting and replacing the
charcoal filter
If the cooker hood is connected for
recirculation, a charcoal filter (optional
accessory) must be inserted in addition
to the grease filter.
This is designed to absorb cooking
smells.
It is fitted in the canopy above the
grease filter.
Replacement charcoal filters can be
obtained from your dealer or the
Miele Spare Parts department.
See back cover for contact details,

Set up for extraction mode
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 in the
exhaust socket in the motor unit.
Set up for recirculation mode
If site conditions are not suitable for the
cooker hood to be used with air
extraction, the appliance must be set
up for recirculation.
For this, we recommend using the
conversion kit available from your Miele
dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Dept
(see "Technical data").
You will also need a charcoal filter (see
“Technical data”).
^
The appliance is set up for use with
C 150 mm ducting. If C 125 mm
ducting is required, the reducing
collar supplied must be fitted to the

27
Page 28
Connection for air extraction
Important: To avoid the danger of
toxic fumes, please observe the
Warning and Safety instructions.
This is especially crucial when using
the cooker hood at the same time as
another heating appliance which
relies on air from the same room.
The cooker hood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
–
must be of non-flammable materials.
– The exhaust ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
– To ensure efficient air extraction, the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150 mm.
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 cooker
hood.
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
–
the open air, the installation of a
telescopic wall vent is
recommended.
If exhaust ducting with a diameter of
less than 150 mm, or if flat ducting is
used, the noise level of the cooker
hood will increase and extraction will
be less efficient.
Only reduce the diameter of the
ducting if absolutely necessary, e.g.
where narrower ducting has already
been installed.
–
Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
–
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
hoses made from non-flammable
materials for extraction connection.
28
–
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be
directed in the flow direction of the
flue.
Page 29
Connection for air extraction
Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where 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.
Condensate trap
(optional extra)
Silencer
To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer can be
fitted in the ducting system.
On extraction models, it can be fitted
nearest the ducting outlet to the outside
to reduce neighbourhood noise, and on
recirculation models it can be fitted in
between the fan and the canopy.
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to
collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur. Condensate traps are
available for C 125 mm or C 150 mm
ducting.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the
exhaust connection. The arrow on the
housing indicates the direction of
