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. Under no circumstances should you 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 when 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).

Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a Miele authorised person in 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.

During installation, maintenance and

repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.

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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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).

This 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, 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.

Warning and Safety instructions

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.

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.

If the hood is being operated in recirculation mode, the above restrictions do not apply.

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 a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.

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.

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".

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.

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.

If exhaust air is to be extracted into

a chimney or ventilation duct no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.

Accessories

Only use genuine Miele 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.

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.

i Fan switch

To switch the fan on, pull out the deflector plate.

Depending on the intensity of the cooking vapours, levels "1" to "3" are usually sufficient for normal cooking.

For short periods of strong vapours and cooking odours, e.g. whilst searing meat, select the Intensive setting "IS". Pull the deflector plate out to its full extent to gain maximum extraction whilst avoiding excessive noise levels.

It is advisable to run the fan for a few minutes after cooking has finished to neutralise any lingering odours in the air, whether you are using air extraction or recirculation mode.

To switch the fan off

^ Set the fan switch to position “0”.

Push the deflector plate back in. The next time the deflector plate is pulled out the cooker hood will operate at the power level it was previously at.

Set the sliding switch for the fan to the required power level.
