Warning and Safety instructions
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
it is switched off at the wall socket
–
and the plug removed. (Pull on the
plug, not the cable). Or
the fuse from the fused spur
–
connection unit is withdrawn. Or
the screw-out fuse is removed (in
–
countries where this is applicable).
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
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.
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 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).
Under no circumstances should a
steam-cleaner be used to clean
this appliance. Pressurised steam
could reach the electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
In countries where there are 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 appliance guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
The minimum safety distance
between the top of a cooker or hob
from our range and the bottom of the
cooker hood should be at least:
– 450 mm above electric hobs and
cookers,
– 650 mm above gas hobs and
cookers,
– 650 mm above an open grill
from our range
For cooking appliances not in our range
please maintain the safety distance as
recommended by the manufacturer in
their Installation and Operating
instructions.
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.
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 (see back
cover for contact details) 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.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
When using the cooker hood at the
same time as another heating
appliance which depends on the air in
the room (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired
heaters, continuous flow or other water
heaters, gas cooker, gas hob or gas
oven), special care must be taken as
the action of the cooker hood extracts
air from the room in which it is installed
and from neighbouring rooms, which
these type of heaters need for
combustion.
They could also draw exhaust air back
in from chimneys or ducting in
contravention of fire safety regulations.
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.
Appliances with external motors
For appliances with an external
motor fitted (EXT models) the
connection of the two units must be
made using the connection cable and
the plug connectors.
Make sure the correct combination of
the two appliances has been selected.
Separate instructions are supplied with
the external motor.
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.
Note: 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.
If the cooker hood is operated in
recirculation mode (with a charcoal
filter), the above restrictions do not
apply.

Description of the functions
The cooker hood works with
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter and then directed outside.
If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, the non-
return flap supplied must be fitted.
The flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off. No exchange of
room and outside air can take place.
When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking smells to be blown directly
outside.
. . . air recirculation:
(with air recirculation conversion kit as
an accessory)
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filter and then cleaned by
active charcoal filters. The cleaned air
is then recirculated back into the
kitchen.
. . . an external fan:
The EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external fan located
outside the room.
The external fan is connected to the
cooker hood by means of a control
cable and is operated by the controls
on the cooker hood.
Before using the cooker hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
active charcoal filters are in place,
see "Cleaning and care".
