metal ductwork.
Any fittings, sealant, or materials used
to install the ductwork must be made of
approved non-flammable materials.
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent
flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connecting
an exhaust hood vent to an existing, in
active chimney or vent flue.
Never operate gas burners without
pots. Heat generated by prolonged
operation of gas burners without pots
could damage the hood.
Do not flambé beneath the exhaust
hood. Flames could be drawn up
into the hood by the suction or the
grease filters may ignite.
Do not allow children to play with
the hood or its controls.
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE
TOP GREASE FIRE:
Keep the fan, filters and grease
laden surfaces clean.
Always turn hood "ON" when cook
ing at high heat.
Use high range settings on range
only when necessary. Heat oil
slowly on low to medium setting.

WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
Use this unit only in the manner in
tended by the manufacturer. If you
have questions, contact the manufacturer.
Before servicing or cleaning the
unit, turn power off at circuit
breaker and lock the service discon
necting means to prevent power from

must be performed by qualified
technicians in accordance with all applicable codes and standards.
Make sure that the airflow in the
room is sufficient for combustion
and exhausting of all non-electric heat
ing appliances (water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise
back drafts may occur. Follow the heat
ing maunfacturer's guidelines and
safety standards or those published by
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), or the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Condi
tioning Engineers (ASHRAE).

Warning and Safety Instructions
When connecting the hood to an ex
ternal vent, make sure that there is
adequate ventilation in the room
where the exhaust hood is to be
used.
When using the hood in the same area
as other appliances requiring room air
(e.g. non-electric water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.) make cer
tain that the air extracted by the hood
does not hinder their operation. These
appliances need air for combustion.
Adequate ventilation can be maintained
by installing air vents in windows or
walls or by ensuring that the hood can
only be turned on when the other appliances are off, or vice versa.
To prevent combustion gases being
drawn back into the room by the exhaust hood, the underpressure in the
room must be no greater than 0.0006
psi (0.04 mbar) when the hood and
these appliances are running simulta
neously.

-
Disposal of old appliances
Before discarding an old appliance, re
move its power cord and any doors to
prevent it from becoming a hazard.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY
Throughout the manual, important
safety items will be highlighted in
boxes and should be read in con
junction with these "Warning and
Safety instructions".

Description of the functions
The hood works
...by air extraction:
The air is drawn in, cleaned by an ex
ternal filter and then passed through an
internal filter before being directed out
side.
The hood has a non-return flap , (see
"Installation").
This flap is closed when the hood is off.
No exchange of room air and outside
air can take place. When the hood is
turned on the non-return flap opens for
the cooking odors to be blown outside.
...by air recirculaton:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the external filter, then by the internal filter before passing through an active
charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through a vent in the top of the hood.
Before using the hood for the first
time in recirculation mode, make
sure that the active charcoal filter is
in place. See Section on "Cleaning
and care".

Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release car
bon monoxide that can be harmful
or fatal if inhaled. The exhaust
gases extracted by the hood
should be vented outside of the
building only
Do not terminate the exhaust
ducts in attics, garages,
crawlspaces, etc.
Please read and follow the "Warning
and Safety Instructions" to reduce the
risk of personal injury, and follow all lo
cal building codes when installing the
hood.
Exhaust ducting and connections
– The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible, and the number
of sharp bends should be minimized.
.
-
Air extraction
into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.
Use smooth or flexible pipes made
–
from approved non-flammable mate
rials for exhaust ducting.
Where the ductwork is horizontal, it
–
must slope away from the hood at
least 1/8" per foot (1cm per meter) to
prevent condensation dripping into
the appliance.
If the exhaust is ducted through an
–
outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall
Vent can be used.
-
– For most efficient air extraction, the
diameter of the ductwork should not
be less than 6" (150 mm). Use of flat
ducts also reduces the air extraction
efficiency.
–
Noise levels of the hood will increase
if flat ducts or round ducts of less
than 6" (150 mm) in diameter are
used.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, Use only
metal ductwork.
CAUTION
To reduce risk of fire and to properly
exhaust air, be sure to duct air out
side - Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings or
-
–
If the exhaust is ducted into an inac
tive flue, the air must be expelled
parallel to the flow direction of the
flue.

35
Page 36
Air extraction
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent
flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connect
ing an exhaust hood vent to an exist
ing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Ductwork with a diameter of less
than 6" (150 mm) should only be
used when absolutely necessary. As
duct diameter decreases, the hood
performance and sound levels will
be affected.
Note:
If the ductwork runs through rooms,
ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may be necessary to use insulation to reduce condensation. In some cases, a condensate trap may also be required.
