Before using for the first time
Setting up Con@ctivity
Con@ctivity is the direct communication
system between an electric Miele hob
and a Miele cooker hood. It enables the
cooker hood to operate automatically
depending on the operational state of a
Miele hob with onset controls.
- When the hob is switched on, the
cooker hood lighting comes on
automatically and then after a short
time the fan also comes on.
- The cooker hood selects the power
level automatically during cooking.
The power level selected by the
cooker hood depends on the number
of cooking zones being used and
their power levels.
- After switching the hob off the fan
and the hob lighting will switch off
automatically after a specified period
of time.
See “Operation” for detailed information
about this function.
Con@ctivity via the home WiFi
network (Con@ctivity 3.0)
Prerequisite:
- Home WiFi network
- WiFi-enabled Miele hob
Connect the cooker hood and hob to
your home WiFi network (see “Setting
up Miele@home”).
The Con@ctivity function will be
activated automatically.
19
Page 20
Before using for the first time
Con@ctivity via a direct WiFi
connection (Con@ctivity 3.0)
Prerequisite:
- WiFi enabled Miele hob
If you do not have a home network, you
can establish a direct connection
between the hob and the cooker hood.
See the Hob instruction manual for
details on how to connect them.
Instructions on how to connect the
cooker hood are repeated in detail
below.
Switch the cooker hood off.
Press and hold the B control.
Touch the 1 control at the same time.
Start the WiFi connection on the hob.
For further details, see the hob
operating instructions.
When successfully connected, 2and
3will light up constantly.
Quit connection mode on the cooker
hood by touching the run-on
control.
Con@ctivity is now activated.
With a direct WiFi connection, it is not
possible to connect the hob and the
cooker hood to a home network.
Should this be required at a later date,
the WiFi connection between the hob
and the cooker hood must be
disconnected (see “Sign out of WiFi”).
2will light up constantly, 3will flash on
and off.
The cooker hood will be ready for
connection in the next 2minutes.
20
Page 21
When Con@ctivity is active, the
cooker hood always operates in
automatic mode (see “Before using for
the first time” – “Setting up
Con@ctivity”).
If you wish to manually operate the
cooker hood, see “Operation (Manual
mode)” – “Cooking without
Con@ctivity”.
Cooking with Con@ctivity
(Automatic mode)
Switch a cooking zone on at the
desired power level.
The hob lighting will come on.
After a few seconds the fan will come
on, first at power level 2, then it will
switch immediately to power level 1.
The cooker hood selects the fan power
level automatically during cooking.
Operation (Automatic mode)
Examples for power levels 1 to B
Reaction time
The cooker hood reacts with a slight
delay because altering the power level
on the hob does not immediately result
in a reduction or increase in cooking
vapours.
Because the hob transmits the
information to the cooker hood at
intervals, this can also cause delays.
The reaction can vary from a few
seconds to a couple of minutes.
This is determined by the total output of
the hob, i.e. the number of cooking
zones in operation and the power levels
selected.
If you select a higher power level or are
using several cooking zones, the cooker
hood will switch to a higher fan power
level.
When you reduce the power level or the
number of cooking zones on the hob,
the fan power level is also reduced.
21
Page 22
Operation (Automatic mode)
Cooking process
For example, you switch on a cooking
zone at the highest power level to
heat a pan for frying. You reduce the
power level after approx. 10seconds
to 4minutes (60seconds to
5minutes for a for a HiLight hob).
The cooker hood recognises a cooking
process.
The cooker hood switches itself on and
when the hob power level has been
reduced, the hood switches to fan
power level 3 and remains at that level
for approx. 5minutes.
After that, the cooker hood power level
is determined automatically by the
Con@ctivity function.
You can select another power level
manually before then.
Switching off
Switch off all cooking zones.
The cooker hood fan will reduce its
power level in stages over the next few
minutes and will then switch itself off.
This helps to neutralise any lingering
vapours and odours in the air.
- From the Booster setting, the fan
switches immediately to Level 3.
- From Level 3, it will switch to Level 2
after approx. 1minute.
- From Level 2, it will switch to Level 1
after 2minutes.
- After 2minutes at Level 1 the fan
switches itself off.
- After another 30 seconds, the hob
lighting switches off.
The cooking process is then finished.
22
Page 23
Operation (Automatic mode)
Leaving automatic mode
temporarily
To leave automatic mode temporarily
during cooking:
Manually select a different fan power
level, or
Manually switch the cooker hood off,
or
Activate the run-on function on
the cooker hood. The fan will switch
itself off after the selected run-on
time, and the lighting will remain on.
The cooker hood functions are now
operated manually (see “Operation
(Manual mode)”).
Returning to automatic mode
The cooker hood will resume automatic
mode:
- If the cooker hood has not been used
for approx. 5minutes after selecting
a fan power level manually, or
You can also operate the cooker hood
manually for a complete cooking
process.
Switch the cooker hood fan on
before the hob.
If the cooker hood fan and the hob have
been switched off for at least
30seconds after cooking, automatic
mode will resume next time the hob is
switched on.
- If the manually selected fan power
level corresponds to the automatic
one again, or
- The cooker hood fan and the hob
have been switched off for at least
30seconds.
Automatic mode will resume next
time the hob is switched on.
23

Operation (Manual mode)
Cooking without Con@ctivity
(Manual mode)
The cooker hood can be operated
manually if:
- The Con@ctivity function is not
activated.
- You have temporarily deactivated the
Con@ctivity function (see “Operation

are captured right from the start.
Touch the On/Off control.
The fan will come on at power level 2.
To select a power level
For light to heavy cooking vapours and
odours, select from power levels 1 to 3.
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapours and a strong aroma,
e.g. when searing meat, select Booster
settingB.
Selecting the run-on time
It is advisable to run the fan for a few
minutes after cooking has finished. This
helps to remove any lingering vapours
and odours from the air.
It also reduces the risk of residues
accumulating in the cooker hood and
any resultant odours.
The run-on function enables the fan to
continue running for a pre-determined
time before switching itself off
automatically.
After you have finished cooking,
touch the run-on option control.
- Once: the fan will switch itself off
after 5minutes (5 lights up).

management helps to save energy. It
ensures that the fan power level is
reduced automatically and that the
lighting is switched off.
- If the Booster setting has been
selected, the fan will automatically
switch to level 3 after 5minutes.
- From fan power levels 3, 2 or 1, the
power will be reduced by one level
after 2hours and then in 30-minute
stages until the fan finally switches
off.
- The hob lighting will switch off
automatically after 12hours.
You can deactivate power
management.

Page 27
Operation (Automatic and Manual modes)
Operating hours counter
The cooker hood registers the length of
time it has been operated.
When the grease filter symbol or the
charcoal filter symbol lights up, the
operating hours counters are signalling
that the filters need to be cleaned or
changed. Further information about
cleaning and replacing the filters and
resetting the operating hours counter
can be found under “Cleaning and
care”.
Altering the operating hours counter
for the grease filter(s)
You can set the operating hours counter
to suit the type of cooking you do.
The factory default setting is a cleaning
interval of 30hours.
- Select a shorter time of 20hours if
you fry a lot.
- If you only cook occasionally, we
recommend that you still select a
short time. This is to prevent grease
hardening on the filter(s) and making
cleaning more difficult.
Switch off the fan and the lighting.
Touch the run-on option control
and the Grease filter control at the
same time.
The Grease filter symbol and one of
the fan power level indicators will flash.
Fan power level indicators 1 to B show
the time set:
The number of operating hours used
remains in the memory, even when the
appliance is switched off or there is a
power cut.
If you don't confirm your selection
within 4minutes, the cooker hood will
automatically revert to the original
setting.

Energy saving tips
This cooker hood operates very
efficiently and economically. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
- It is important to ensure that the
kitchen is well ventilated during
operation.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
cooker hood power level and
therefore benefit from reduced
energy consumption.
- Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
- Use the Con@ctivity function. The
cooker hood will switch on and off
automatically at the optimum power
level for the cooking you are doing,
which ensures low energy
consumption.
- If you are operating the cooker hood
manually, please note the following:
– Check the power level selected on
the cooker hood. A low power
level is usually sufficient. Only use
the Booster setting when
necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapours are being produced,
switch to a high power level in
good time. This is more efficient
than operating the cooker hood for
longer to try to capture cooking
vapours which have already been
distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the
cooker hood off after use.
If cooking vapours and odours still
need to be removed from the
kitchen air after cooking, use the
run-on function. The fan will switch
off automatically after the selected
run-on time.
29
Page 30
Cleaning and care
Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the
cooker hood must be disconnected
from the power supply (see “Warning
and Safety instructions”).
Housing
General information
The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasion.
Please observe the following
cleaning instructions.
All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using hot water with a
small amount of washing-up liquid
applied with a well wrung-out soft
sponge or cloth.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Do not use:
- cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides or solvents,
Important information for appliances
with stainless steel surfaces
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with a non-abrasive cleaning agent
designed specifically for use on
stainless steel.
To prevent the surfaces from quickly
becoming dirty again, we recommend
treating them with a stainless steel care
product (available from Miele).
Important information for appliances
with lacquered casing
Minor scratches on the surface are
inevitable when cleaning the casing;
they may be visible depending on the
lighting in the kitchen.
Important for appliances with glass
surfaces
Glass surfaces can be cleaned using
a proprietary non-abrasive cleaning
agent designed specifically for use on
glass.
- 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.
30
Page 31
Cleaning and care
Grease filters
Fire hazard
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular
intervals.
The re-usable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen
vapours, preventing soiling of the
cooker hood.
The grease filters must be cleaned at
regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air
extraction and will lead to increased
levels of soiling in the cooker hood
and in the kitchen.
Cleaning interval
Accumulated grease solidifies over a
longer period of time and makes
cleaning more difficult. The grease
filters should therefore be cleaned every
3 to 4 weeks.
The filter operating hours control
reminds you to regularly clean the
grease filters by illuminating the grease
filter symbol.
Removing a grease filter
When handling a grease filter, be
careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the hob below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
To take out a grease filter, release the
locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter approx. 45°, unhook it at the
back and remove it.
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and a small amount of washing-up
liquid. Do not use “neat” washing up
liquid.
You can set the operating hours counter
interval to suit the type of cooking you
do (see “Operation (Automatic and
Manual modes)”).
31
Page 32
Cleaning and care
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaning agents can cause
damage to the surface of the filters if
used regularly.
Do not use:
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- powder cleaners, cream cleaners
- aggressive multi-purpose cleaning
agents or spray cleaners for grease
- oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
Place the grease filters upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
Use a commercially available
household dishwasher detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a wash temperature between 50°C
and 65°C.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the filters in a dishwasher
may cause the inside filter surfaces to
become discoloured. This will not
affect the functioning of the grease
filters in any way.
After cleaning
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.
Replace the grease filters, making
sure that the locking clips are facing
down towards the hob.
If a grease filter is inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slit to
disengage the clip.

Installation recommendations
- When deciding on the safety distance
between the hob and cooker hood,
please note that a distance of
650mm above electric cookers/hobs
may be preferable to give more
working space under the hood.
- Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be
using the hood most often. They
should have sufficient space to work
comfortably at the hob, and be able
to reach the cooker hood controls
with ease.
- Please be aware that if positioned too
high, extraction will be inefficient.
- To achieve optimum vapour
extraction, the cooker hood must be
centred over the hob, not to the side
or behind it.
- The hob should be no wider than the
cooker hood, and if possible, it
should be narrower.
- The installation area must be easily
accessible. The cooker hood should
be easily accessible and easy to
dismantle in the event that service is
required. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cupboards, shelves,
ceilings or features in the vicinity of
the cooker hood.
Electrical connection
All electrical work should be
undertaken by a suitably qualified
and competent electrician in strict
accordance with current national and
local safety and building code
regulations.
Please ensure the connection data
(voltage and frequency) quoted on the
data plate match the household mains
supply. Please consult a qualified
electrician if you are in any doubt.

suitable switched socket which is easily
accessible after installation.
For extra safety it is advisable to
operate the appliance via a suitable
residual current device (RCD). Contact
a qualified electrician for advice.
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by a
multisocket adapter or an extension
lead. These are a fire hazard and do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance.
The wires in the mains lead are
coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Blue .............................................neutral
