Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. Installation, maintenance work and repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a Miele approved service technician.
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this rangehood can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, ensure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and frequency) matches the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.
This rangehood must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).
Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.
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.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably qualified electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
–the mains circuit breaker is switched off, or
–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from the socket. Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains plug to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity supply.

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 rangehood 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 cooktops, 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, or in recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the room, 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 will 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.
7
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 rangehood 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 or outside wall vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the rangehood 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 (registered with an official gas safety body in accordance with national safety regulations), must be sought.
If the rangehood is used in recirculation mode, where the air is directed back into the room in which it is located, operating a heating appliance which depends on the room air at the same time is not hazardous.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Never use an open flame beneath the rangehood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame.
When switched on, the rangehood could draw flames into the filter. Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
The rangehood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat.
–When using the rangehood over a gas cooktop, 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.
–Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
–Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.
–Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).
Always switch the rangehood on when a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the rangehood, 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 rangehood on fire.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use the rangehood 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 rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising from the cooktop.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the rangehood has cooled down.
Correct installation
Refer to the cooktop manufacturer's instructions as to whether a rangehood may be operated above the cooktop.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a rangehood over solid fuel stoves.
Insufficient distance between the cooktop and the rangehood can result in damage to the rangehood.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooktop and the bottom of the rangehood given in the "Installation" section must be maintained, unless the cooktop manufacturer states that a greater distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the rangehood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the rangehood, select the greater distance.
The distances given in "Installation" must be observed when fitting the rangehood.
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable material. These can be obtained from builders' merchants.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
Cleaning and care
There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out as described in these operating instructions.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine 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 machine warranty.
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
11
Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.

Description of the functions
Depending on the model of the rangehood, the following options are available:
Air extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filter and directed outside.
Non-return flap
The non-return flap is designed to prevent the exchange of room and outside air taking place.
The flap is closed when the rangehood is switched off.
When the rangehood is switched on, the non-return flap opens for the cooking vapours to be blown directly outside.
If the on-site ventilation system does not have a non-return flap, the nonreturn flap supplied must be fitted.
Recirculation mode
(available as an optional extra with a conversion kit and charcoal filter: see "Technical Data")
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by the grease filter and then by a charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then recirculated back into the kitchen.
