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.
Temporary or permanent operation with a self-sufficient or non-
mains synchronous energy supply system (e.g. isolated networks,
back-up systems) is possible. A requirement for the operation is that
the energy supply system complies with all current local and national
requirements that apply to stand-alone, solar and/or battery systems.
The protective measures provided in the installation and in this Miele
product must also be assured in their function and operation in
isolated operation or in non-mains synchronous operation, or
replaced with equivalent measures in the installation.
The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the rangehood must match the mains electricity supply in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the rangehood.
Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains
electricity. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
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.
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).
6
Warning and Safety instructions
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 authorised service technician.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably qualified and
competent electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
The lamps are a built-in component of the lighting. Replacement
lamps may only be installed by a Miele authorised technician.
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
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the rangehood in the same
room or the same area of the house as another heating appliance
that depends on the air from the room.
Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct
exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They
include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooktops and ovens.
The rangehood draws in air from the kitchen and from neighbouring
rooms. This applies to the following modes of operation:
- extraction mode
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the
room.
If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating
appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction
ducting back into the room.
This could have potentially fatal consequences. Risk of death!
8
Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by
a heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when the
rangehood and the heater are both operated simultaneously, an
underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot
be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The
diameter of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. 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 being operated in recirculation mode, whereby
the air is redirected into the room in which it is installed, the above
restrictions do not apply.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Open flames are a fire hazard!
Never use an open flame under 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. Kitchen grease deposits
could ignite.
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.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
rangehood.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc., do
not leave the pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an open grill
unattended when grilling.
10
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
To determine whether a rangehood may be operated above your
cooking appliance, please refer to the information provided by the
appliance’s manufacturer.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a rangehood over solid
fuel stoves.
An insufficient safety distance between the stovetop 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 of
these instructions must be observed, unless the cooktop
manufacturer states that a greater safety 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 information provided in “Installation” must be observed when
installing the rangehood.
There may be a risk of injury due to protruding parts and sharp
edges.
Wear gloves that offer protection against cuts during assembly.
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
material and comply with all relevant national and local building
regulations.
11
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
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.
Accessories and spare parts
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.
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.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation
of your appliance.
12
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.

Before using for the first time
Setting up Con@ctivity
Con@ctivity is the direct
communication system between an
electric Miele cooktop and a Miele
rangehood. It enables the rangehood to
operate automatically depending on the
operational state of a Miele cooktop
with onset controls.
- When the cooktop is switched on, the
cooktop lighting on the rangehood
comes on independently and, after a
short time, the fan also switches on.
- The rangehood selects the power
level automatically during cooking.
The power level selected by the
rangehood depends on the number of
cooking zones being used and their
power levels.
- After switching the cooktop off, the
fan and the cooktop lighting will
switch off automatically after a
specified period of time.
See “Operation” for detailed information
about this function.
21
Before using for the first time
Con@ctivity via the home Wi-Fi
network (Con@ctivity 3.0)
Prerequisites:
- Home Wi-Fi network
- Wi-Fi enabled Miele cooktop
Connect the rangehood and cooktop
to your home Wi-Fi network (see
"Setting up Miele@home").
The Con@ctivity function will be
activated automatically.
Con@ctivity via a direct Wi-Fi
connection (Con@ctivity 3.0)
Prerequisite:
- Wi-Fi enabled Miele cooktop
If you do not have a home network, you
can establish a direct connection
between the cooktop and the
rangehood.
Manually switch the rangehood off.
Press and hold the control.
Press the control at the same time.
2 will light up constantly, 3 will flash on
and off.
The rangehood is ready for connection
during the next twominutes.
22
Start the Wi-Fi connection on the
cooktop. For further details, see the
cooktop operating instructions.
When successfully connected 2 and 3
will light up constantly.
Quit connection mode on the
rangehood by pressing the run-on
control.
Con@ctivity has now been activated.
With a direct Wi-Fi connection, it is
not possible to connect the cooktop
and the rangehood to a home network.
Should this be required at a later date,
the direct Wi-Fi connection between
the cooktop and the rangehood must
be disconnected first (see "Signing out
of Wi-Fi").
Before using for the first time
Reattempting the connection
If it is not possible to connect, 2 and 3
flash or the rangehood cancels the
process.
Disconnect the connection to the
rangehood (see “Signing out of WiFi”) and to the cooktop.
Attempt to make the connection
again.
23
Operation (automatic mode)
When Con@ctivity is active, the
rangehood always operates in
automatic mode (see “Before using for
the first time – Setting up
Con@ctivity”).
If you wish to manually operate the
rangehood, see “Operation (manual
mode) – Cooking without
Con@ctivity”.
Cooking with Con@ctivity
(automatic mode)
Switch on a cooking zone at any
power level.
The rangehood lighting will come on.
Pull out the deflector plate.
The fan will come on at power level 2.
The rangehood selects the power level
automatically during cooking.
This is determined by the total output of
the cooktop, i.e. the number of cooking
zones in operation and the power levels
selected.
Examples for power levels 1 to B
Reaction time
The rangehood reacts with a slight delay
because altering the power level on the
cooktop does not immediately result in
a reduction or increase in cooking
vapours.
Because the cooktop transmits the
information to the rangehood at
intervals, this can also cause delays.
The reaction can vary from a few
seconds to a few minutes.
If you select a higher power level on
the cooktop or are using several
cooking zones, the rangehood will
switch to a higher power level.
When you reduce the power level on
the cooktop or the number of cooking
zones being used, the rangehood
power level will also be reduced.
24
Operation (automatic mode)
Cooking process
For example, you switch on a cooking
zone at the highest power level to
heat a pan for frying. After approx.
10seconds to 4minutes, you then
reduce the power level (60seconds
to 5minutes for a radiant cooktop).
The rangehood recognises a cooking
process.
The rangehood switches itself on and
when the cooktop power level has been
reduced, the rangehood switches to
power level 3 and remains at that level
for approx. 5 minutes.
After that the rangehood 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 rangehood 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 level3.
- 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
cooktop lighting switches off.
The cooking process is then finished.
If the deflector plate remains pulled out,
the rangehood will be switched on
automatically the next time the cooktop
is switched on:
The fan switches on a few seconds after
the cooktop switches on, initially at level
2, before immediately changing to level
1. Operation then continues
automatically.
25
Operation (automatic mode)
Leaving automatic mode
temporarily
To leave automatic mode temporarily
during cooking:
Manually select a different power
level, or
Manually switch the rangehood off, or
Activate the run-on function on
the rangehood. The fan will switch
itself off after the selected run-on
time, and the lighting will remain on.
The rangehood functions are now
operated manually (see “Operation
(manual mode)”).
Returning to automatic mode
The rangehood returns to automatic
mode:
- if the rangehood has not been used
for approx. 5 minutes after selecting a
power level manually, or
- if the manually selected power level
corresponds to the automatic one
again, or
You can also operate the rangehood
manually for a complete cooking
process.
To do so switch the rangehood fan on
before the cooktop.
If the rangehood fan and the cooktop
have been switched off for at least 30
seconds after cooking, automatic mode
will resume next time the cooktop is
switched on.
- the rangehood fan and the cooktop
have been switched off for at least 30
seconds.
Automatic mode will resume next
time the cooktop is switched on.
26
Operation (manual mode)
Cooking without Con@ctivity
(manual mode)
The rangehood can be operated
manually if:
- the Con@ctivity function is not
activated.
- You have temporarily deactivated the
Con@ctivity function (see “Operation
(manual operation) – Leaving
automatic mode temporarily”).
Switching the fan on
Switch the fan on as soon as you start
cooking. This is to ensure that vapours
are captured right from the start.
Pull out the deflector plate. To ensure
optimum extraction and a low noise
level, pull the canopy all the way out.
The fan will switch on at power level 2.
Selecting a power level
For light to heavy cooking vapours and
odours, select from power levels 1 to 3.
Reducing power down from the
Booster setting
If Power management is activated
(default setting), the fan automatically
switches back to level 3 after 5minutes.
Selecting the run-on time
It is advisable to run the fan for a few
minutes after cooking has finished. This
helps to neutralise any lingering vapours
and odours in the air.
It also reduces the risk of residues
accumulating in the rangehood and any
resultant odours.
The run-on function allows the fan to
continue to run for a pre-determined
time before switching itself off
automatically.
After cooking has finished, press the
run-on control while the fan is still
running:
- Once: the fan will switch itself off
after 5minutes (5 lights up).
- Twice: the fan will switch itself off
after 15minutes (15 lights up).
- If you touch the run-on control
again, the fan will remain switched on
( will go out).
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapours and a strong aroma,
e.g. when searing meat, select Booster
settingB.
Select the power level you want by
pressing the or controls.
27
Operation (manual mode)
Switching the fan off
Push in the deflector plate.
The next time the deflector plate is
pulled out, the fan will operate at power
level 2 again.
Or switch the fan off with the On/Off
control.
The symbol will go out.
Dimming/Switching the
cooktop lighting on/off
You can switch the cooktop lighting
on and off by pulling the deflector
plate out and pushing it in or by
pressing the lighting control .
The lighting will switch on at maximum
brightness.
To change the brightness, press and
hold the lighting control with the
lighting switched on. The brightness
will gradually dim until you release the
control.
To increase the brightness, press and
hold the lighting control again until
the desired level has been reached
and then release it.
Power management
The rangehood is fitted with a Power
management system. The Power
management system is designed to help
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 setting 3 after 5minutes.
- From fan power levels 3, 2 and 1, the
power will be reduced by one level
after 2hours and then in 30-minute
stages until the fan finally switches
off.
- The cooktop lighting will switch off
automatically after 12hours.
Safety switch-off
If Power management has been
deactivated, the rangehood will switch
itself off automatically after 12hours if it
has been left on (fan and cooktop
lighting).
To switch it back on press the On/
Off control or the lighting
control.
28
Energy saving tips
This rangehood operates very efficiently
and economically. The following will
help you to save even more energy
when using it:
- Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when
cooking. In extraction mode, if there
is insufficient air flow the rangehood
cannot operate efficiently and this
causes increased operating noise
levels.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
rangehood 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
rangehood will switch on and off
automatically. The rangehood will
select the optimum power level for
the cooking you are doing, which
ensures low energy consumption.
- If you are operating the rangehood
manually, please note the following:
– Check the power level selected on
the rangehood. 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 rangehood for
longer to try to capture cooking
vapours which have already been
distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the
rangehood 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.

General information
Unsuitable cleaning agents can
damage the surfaces and control
elements.
Do not use any cleaning agents
containing soda, acid, chloride, or
solvent.
Do not use any abrasive cleaning
agents, e.g. powder cleaners or
cream cleaners and abrasive
sponges, or pot scourers or sponges
which have been used previously
with abrasive cleaning agents.
Moisture in the rangehood can
cause damage.
Make sure that water does not get
into the rangehood.
Clean all surfaces and control
elements using a small amount of
warm water and dishwashing liquid.
Apply with a soft sponge.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Important information for appliances
with stainless steel surfaces
This information does not apply to the
control elements.
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 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 information for the control
elements
If soiling is not removed promptly, it
could cause the control elements to
alter or discolor.
Remove any soiling immediately.
The surface of the control elements
can be damaged if they are cleaned
using stainless steel cleaning agents.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the control elements.
32
Cleaning and care
Operating hours counter
The rangehood 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
replaced.
You can set the operating hours counter
to suit the type of cooking you do (see
“Changing settings”).
Reading the filter operating hours
counter
You can check the percentage of time
set already used before the filters need
replacing.
Switch the fan on with the On/Off
touch control.
Press and hold the operating hours
control :
- Once, to read the grease filter
operating hours. The grease filter
symbol lights up.
- Twice, to read the charcoal filter
operating hours. The charcoal filter
symbol lights up.
One or more of the fan power level
indicators will flash.
The number of flashing indicators shows
the percentage of the operating time
which has already been used up.
The number of operating hours used
remains in the memory even when the
appliance is switched off or there is a
power cut.
Grease filter
Fire hazard!
An oversaturated grease filter is a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filter at regular
intervals.
The re-usable metal grease filter in the
appliance removes solid particles from
the kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc.),
preventing soiling of the rangehood.
The grease filter must be cleaned at
regular intervals.
A heavily soiled grease filter hinders air
extraction and will lead to increased
levels of soiling in the rangehood and
in the kitchen.
Grease filter cleaning intervals
Accumulated grease solidifies over a
longer period of time and makes
cleaning more difficult. The grease filter
should therefore be cleaned at least
every 3 to 4 weeks.
The operating hours control reminds you
to regularly clean the grease filters by
illuminating the grease filter symbol.
be careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the cooktop below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
Pull out the deflector plate.
Support the grease filter with your
right hand. Press down on the lock on
the left-hand side. The filter slides
down.
Push the grease filter from the right-
hand side slightly to the left.
Pull the grease filter down to remove
it.
Cleaning the grease filter by hand
Clean the grease filter with a soft
nylon brush in a mild solution of hot
water and a small amount of washingup liquid. Do not use undiluted
washing-up liquid.
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 or cream cleaners,
- aggressive all-purpose cleaning
agents or spray cleaners for grease,
- oven sprays.
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
Risk of damage due to
excessively high temperatures in the
dishwasher.
Excessively high temperatures can
render the grease filter unusable (due
to being warped out of shape, for
example).
Select a programme that does not
exceed the recommended
temperature.
Also follow the information provided
in the operating instructions for the
dishwasher.
Place the grease filter upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
34
Use a standard household cleaning
detergent.
Cleaning and care
Select a programme with a maximum
wash temperature of 65°C.
Depending on the detergent used, the
internal filter surfaces may become
discoloured. This will not affect the
functioning of the grease filters in any
way.
After cleaning
After cleaning, leave the grease filter
to dry on an absorbent surface before
refitting it.
When removing the filter for cleaning,
also clean off any residues of oil or fat
from the now accessible casing to
prevent the risk of these catching fire.
Resetting the grease filter operating
hours counter
After cleaning, the operating hours
counter needs to be reset.
While the fan is switched on, press
the operating hours control for
approx. 3 seconds until only 1 is
flashing.

Installation
Connection for air extraction
Before installation, it is important
to read the information given on the
following pages as well as the
“Appliance dimensions” and the
“Warning and Safety instructions” at
the beginning of this booklet. This is
particularly crucial when using the
rangehood at the same time as a
heating appliance that relies on
oxygen from the same room, which
could result in the build-up of toxic
fumes.
The rangehood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
ducting made from approved nonflammable materials for exhaust
ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air
extraction with the lowest noise levels,
please note the following:
- If the ducting has flaps, these must
be opened when the rangehood is
switched on.
Any constriction of the airflow will
reduce extraction performance and
increase operating noise.
Vent flue
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a
vent flue, the ducting must be directed
in the flow direction of the flue.
If the flue is used by several ventilation
units, the cross-section of the flue must
be large enough.
- The diameter of the exhaust ducting
must not be smaller than the crosssection of the exhaust connection
(see "Appliance dimensions"). This is
particularly applicable when using flat
ducting.
- The exhaust ducting must be as short
and straight as possible.
- Only use wide radius bends.
- The exhaust ducting must not be
kinked or compressed.
- All connections must be strong and
airtight.
46
*INSTALLATION*
Non-return flap
Make sure you use a non-return flap
in the exhaust air system.
A non-return flap ensures that when the
rangehood is not in operation, the duct
is closed and no exchange of room and
outside air can take place.
If the exhaust air is ducted through an
outside wall, a Miele wall vent or a
Miele roof vent (available as an optional
accessory) is recommended. These are
fitted with an integrated non-return flap.
If the on-site exhaust air system does
not have a non-return flap, one is
supplied with the rangehood.
The non-return flap is fitted to the fan's
exhaust connection.
Condensed water
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc., condensate
may form in the ducting due to
variations in temperature between the
different areas. To minimise temperature
variations, the exhaust ducting will need
to be suitably insulated.
Where ducting is horizontal, it must be
laid to slope away at at least 1 cm per
metre. The gradient ensures that
condensate cannot drain back into the
rangehood.
Installation
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
125mm or 150mm ducting.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and, if possible, directly above the
exhaust socket. The arrow on the
housing indicates the direction of
airflow.
Miele will not accept warranty claims
for any functional defects or damage
caused by inadequate ducting.
47
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Silencer
To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer (optional
accessory) can be fitted in the ducting
system.
In recirculation mode the silencer needs
to be positioned between the exhaust
connection and the exhaust grille.
Please ensure there is adequate
installation space.
In extraction mode the silencer not only
reduces noise from the fan outside the
house, but also sounds from outside
which reach the kitchen via the vent
ducting (e.g. traffic noise). For this
reason, the silencer must be positioned
as close as possible to the ducting exit
.
48
*INSTALLATION*
Installation
Electrical connection
The rangehood is supplied with a mains
connection cable with moulded plug
ready for connection to a suitable
earthed socket.
If the socket is not easily accessible or if
the appliance is to be hard-wired,
ensure that a suitable means of
disconnection is provided on the
installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the rangehood to multisocket adapters or extension cables
can overload the cables.
For safety reasons, do not use an
extension cable or multi-socket
adapter.
All electrical work must be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with
national and local safety regulations.
For safety reasons, we recommend
using a suitable residual current device
(RCD) in the relevant electrical
installation for connecting the
rangehood.
data of the on-site electrical connection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation with
a self-sufficient or non-mains
synchronous energy supply system (e.g.
isolated networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A requirement for the
operation is that the energy supply
system complies with all current local
and national requirements that apply to
stand-alone, solar and/or battery
systems. The protective measures
provided in the domestic installation
and in this Miele product must also be
assured in their function and operation
in isolated operation or in non-mains
synchronous operation, or replaced with
equivalent measures in the installation.
If the mains connection cable is
damaged, it must only be replaced with
a specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from Miele). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent electrician or a
Miele authorised service technician, in
order to avoid a hazard.
