Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material

The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.

Packaging (e.g. cling film, polystyrene)
and plastic wrappings must be kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation!

Dispose of or recycle all packaging
materials safely as soon as possible.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances
often 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 your
old appliance with your household
waste.

Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by a
competent person. If connected by a
plug, the plug must be rendered
useless and the cable cut off directly
behind the appliance to prevent
misuse. See the "Warning and Safety"
section of this booklet for further details.

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,
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connection unit is withdrawn, or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 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

Safety with children

The appliance is only intended for
use by adults who have read these

operating instructions.

This appliance is not a toy! To

avoid the risk of injury keep
children well away and do not let them
play with it or use the controls. They will
not understand the potential dangers
posed by it. They should be supervised
whenever you are working in the
kitchen.

Older children may use the

appliance only when its operation
has been clearly explained to them,
and they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.

Supervise its use by the elderly or
infirm.

Please be aware that on

appliances with halogen lighting,
the lamps will get very hot during use
and remain hot for some time after
switching off. To safeguard against
burning, keep children well away from
the lamps at all times.

Packaging (e.g. cling film,

polystyrene) and plastic wrappings
must be kept out of the reach of babies
and young children. Danger of
suffocation! Dispose or recycle all
packaging materials safely as soon as
possible.

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
materials. 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.

6

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 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.

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.

Harmful gases such as carbon
monoxide could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room with potentially fatal
consequences.

7

Warning and Safety instructions

If the only way of ensuring adequate
ventilation is via an open window, then
a window contact switch should be
fitted.

The window contact switch ensures that
the cooker hood can only operate when
the window is opened sufficiently. 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.

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.

The cooker hood works with

Modes of operation

. . . air extraction:

The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.

If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, the
non-return flap supplied with the
appliance must be fitted in the exhaust
socket in the motor unit.

Having a non-return flap fitted in the
ducting ensures that air, once ducted to
the outside, cannot get back into the
room again.

The flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off.

. . . air recirculation:

(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 filters and then by a
charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through grilles in the top of the cooker
hood extension piece.

Before using the cooker hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filter is in place. See
"Cleaning and care".

When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be ducted away.

j Sliding switch for the fan

To switch on, slide the switch to the
required setting.

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

For short periods of intensive cooking
vapours, e.g. when searing meat, you
may wish to select the Intensive
Setting "IS".

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

To switch the fan off, slide the switch to
position “0”.

11

Cleaning and care

Before any cleaning or maintenance
work is carried out, disconnect the
cooker hood from the mains supply.
Ensure that:
– it is switched off at the wall socket

and the plug is withdrawn, or

– the fuse is withdrawn from the

fused spur connection unit, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn,or
– the screw-out fuse is removed

(in countries where this is

applicable).

Housing

General notes

The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasions. Please observe the
following cleaning instructions.

^ All external surfaces and controls can

be cleaned using warm water with a
little washing-up liquid applied with a
well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.

^

Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft
cloth.

Do not use too much water when
cleaning the controls. Water could
penetrate into the electronics and
cause damage.

E-Cloth

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available

^

from the Miele UK Spare Parts
Department, which is suitable for
cleaning surfaces such as stainless
steel, glass, plastic and chrome
without the use of chemicals.

Avoid:

cleaning agents containing soda,

–

acids, chlorides or solvents,
abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.

–

powder cleaners or cream cleaners
and abrasive sponges, as well as pot
scourers or sponges which have
been used previously with abrasive
cleaning agents.
These will damage the surface
material.

Important for appliances with
stainless steel housing

(This infomation does not apply to the
controls).

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using the Miele E-Cloth, or with a
proprietary non-abrasive cleaning
agent designed specifically for use on
stainless steel.

To help prevent re-soiling, proprietary
conditioning agents for stainless steel
can also be used. Apply sparingly with
an even pressure in the direction of the
"grain".

12

Important for appliances with
lacquered housing

(special finish)
It is very difficult to clean this type of

surface without causing minor marks to
the surface material. This can become
particularly noticeable with darker
colours and if there is halogen lighting
in the kitchen.

Cleaning and care

Controls

The controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is
left on them for too long. Remove
soiling straight away.

Observe the General notes on cleaning
earlier in this section.

Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the controls.

Grease filters

Re-usable metal filters are fitted which
remove solid particles (oil, dust, etc.)
from the kitchen vapours, preventing
soiling of the cooker hood.

To avoid the build-up of grease, the
grease filters should be cleaned every
3-4 weeks.

An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.

To take out the grease filters, release

^

the catch on the filter, lower the filter
45°, unhook it at the back and
remove it.

To avoid damaging the filter or the
hob below, make sure you hold the
filter securely at all times when
handling it.

^ Clean the filters

- by hand: with a soft nylon brush,
warm water and a little washing up
liquid.

- in a dishwasher: place filters with
the short side upright in the lower
basket, and wash on a 65°
programme, ensuring that the spray
arm is not obstructed.

Depending on the cleaning agent
used, cleaning the filters in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discolouration to the surface.
However, this will not affect the
functioning of the filters in any way.

13

Cleaning and care

After cleaning, leave the filters to dry

^

on an absorbent surface before
replacing them.

When removing the filters for cleaning,
also clean off any residues of oil or fat
from the now accessible housing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.

When putting the grease filters back in
position, ensure that the locking clips
are facing down towards the hob.

If the grease filters are inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slits to
disengage the clip.

Fitting and replacing the
charcoal filter

If the cooker hood is connected for
recirculation, a charcoal filter must be
inserted in addition to the grease filters.
It is designed to absorb cooking
odours, and is fitted in the canopy
above the grease filters.

New filters can be purchased from
your Miele dealer or from the Miele
Spare Parts Department.
See back cover for contact details,
and "Technical data" for the model
number of the filter.

^ Before fitting or replacing a charcoal

filter, the grease filters must first be
taken out (see previous section for
instructions on how to do this).

^ Take the charcoal filter out of its

packaging.

14

^

Fit the charcoal filter into the bracket.
Pull on the tab at the front to remove it.

Replace the charcoal filter when it no
longer absorbs kitchen odours
effectively.

It should, however, be replaced at least
every 6 months.

Used charcoal filters can be disposed
of with the normal household waste.

Cleaning and care

Changing a halogen lamp

Before any cleaning or maintenance
work, disconnect the cooker hood
from the mains supply. Ensure that
– it is switched off at the wall socket

and the plug is withdrawn, or
– the fuse is withdrawn from the

fused spur connection unit, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn,or
– the screw-out fuse is removed

(in countries where this is

applicable).

Exercise caution when changing
halogen lamps. They get very hot
during use, and remain hot for some
time after being switched off. Do not
touch the surface directly when
changing a lamp, as grease
particles from your fingers will
adhere to the surface and damage
it. Please follow the manufacturer’s
instructions.

First remove the grease filters from

^

the cooker hood.

Now turn the thumb screw

^

anti-clockwise. This releases the
halogen lamp partially from its
housing.

^

Turn the halogen lamp anti-clockwise
and pull it downwards to remove.

Replace with a halogen lamp of the
same specification:
PHILIPS GZ 10, 230V, 50 W, 50°.

^

Fit the new halogen lamp by
reversing the above procedure.

All electrical work should be
undertaken by a suitably qualified
and competent person in strict
accordance with national and local
safety regulations.

Installation, repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be
dangerous, for which the
manufacturer cannot be held liable.

Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance until after installation or
repair work has been carried out.

Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an

guarantee the required safety of the
appliance.

The voltage and connected load are
given on the data plate. This is visible

when the grease filters have been
removed. Ensure that these match the
household mains supply.

Electrical connection

For extra safety it is advisable to install
a residual current device (RCD) with a
trip current of 30 mA.

Important

U.K., IRL, NZ, ZA: This appliance is
supplied for connection to an a.c.
230 V single phase 50 Hz supply.

AUS: This appliance is supplied for
connection to an a.c. single phase
240 V, 50 Hz supply.

The wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the
following code:

Green/yellow = earth
Blue = neutral
Brown = live

WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
EARTHED

Connection of this appliance should be
made via a suitable isolator or a double
pole fused spur connection unit which
complies with national and local safety
regulations and the On-Off switch
should be easily accessible after the
appliance has been built in.
When switched off there must be an
all-pole contact gap of 3 mm in the
switch (including switch, fuses and
relays according to EN 60 335).

If the switch is not accessible after
installation (depending on country), an
additional means of disconnection must
be provided for all poles.

21

Connection for air extraction

Important: To avoid the danger of
toxic fumes, please observe the
Warning and Safety instructions.
This is especially crucial when using
the cooker hood at the same time as
another heating appliance which
relies on air from the same room.
The cooker hood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.

– All ducting, pipework and fittings

must be of non-flammable materials.

– The exhaust ducting should be as

short and straight as possible.

– To ensure efficient air extraction, the

diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150 mm.

Where ducting is horizontal, it must

–

be laid to slope away at at least 1 cm
per metre.

This is to ensure that condensate
cannot drain back into the cooker
hood.

If the exhaust air is to be ducted into

–

the open air, the installation of a
telescopic wall vent is
recommended.

If exhaust ducting with a diameter of
less than 150 mm, or if flat ducting is
used, the noise level of the cooker
hood will increase and extraction will
be less efficient.

Only reduce the diameter of the
ducting if absolutely necessary, e.g.
where narrower ducting has already
been installed.

–

Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.

–

Only use smooth pipes or flexible
hoses made from non-flammable
materials for extraction connection.

22

–

If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be
directed in the flow direction of the
flue.

Important:

If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the
problem of condensation will need to
be addressed. The exhaust ducting will
need to be suitably insulated.

Condensate trap

(optional extra)

Connection for air extraction

In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to
collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur. Condensate traps are
available for C 125 mm or C 150 mm
ducting.

When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the
