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, or
the mains fuse is withdrawn, or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connection unit is withdrawn, or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).
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.
These models may only be combined
with a Miele external motor.
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 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".
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean this appliance. Pressurised
steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.

Warning and Safety instructions
Installation
The minimum safety distance
between the top of the cooker/hob
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 non-Miele cooking appliances,
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 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.
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 exraction mode and also
when an external motor is fitted, 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.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
Harmful gases such as carbon
monoxide could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room with potentially fatal
consequences.
If adequate ventilation can only be
achieved through an open window, a
window contact switch must be fitted.
This ensures that the hood can only be
operated when the window is opened
wide enough.
The advice of a competent builder must
be sought. 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.
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.
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 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 vapours 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
charcoal filters. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen.
. . . an external motor:
(...EXT models only)
The ...EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external motor located
outside the room.
The external motor 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
charcoal filters are in place, see
"Cleaning and care".
