IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
Installation  
Any fittings, sealant, or materials  
used to install the ductwork must  
be made of approved non-flammable  
materials.  
, WARNING  
To reduce the risk of fire only  
use metal ductwork.  
Never connect an exhaust hood to  
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent  
flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek  
professional advice before connecting  
an exhaust hood vent to an existing,  
When installing the hood, follow the  
recommended minimum safety  
distances between a Miele cooktop and  
the hood:  
– 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops, inactive chimney or vent flue.  
– 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops,  
– 26" (65 cm) above an open grill.  
Ducted fans must always be  
vented outdoors.  
Make sure that the airflow in the  
room is sufficient for combustion  
and exhausting of all non-electric  
heating appliances (water heaters, gas  
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise  
backdrafts may occur. Follow the  
heating manufacturer’s guidelines and  
safety standards or those published by  
the National Fire Protection Association  
(NFPA), or the American Society for  
Heating, Refrigeration and Air  
If local building codes require a greater  
safety distance, follow their  
requirement.  
For non-Miele cooking appliances  
maintain the safety distances  
recommended by the appliance  
manufacturer.  
If there is more than one appliance  
beneath the hood and they have  
different minimum safety distances  
always select the greater distance.  
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).  
If in doubt, consult an experienced  
professional.  
Be careful not to damage hidden  
electrical wiring or plumbing when  
cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.  
Do not use an extension cord to  
connect the appliance to electricity.  
Extension cords do not guarantee the  
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.  
danger of overheating).  
Do not install this hood over  
cooktops burning solid fuel.

Functional description  
The ventilation hood works by air  
extraction. The air is drawn in and  
cleaned by the grease filters and  
directed outside.  
The hood comes equipped with a  
non-return flap. This flap automatically  
closes when the hood is turned off so  
that no exchange of outside air and  
room air can occur. When the hood is  
turned on, the air pressure of the  
exhaust fan automatically opens the  
flap blowing the inside air and cooking  
odors outside.

Cleaning and Care  
Stainless steel  
Before cleaning or servicing the  
hood, disconnect it from the power  
supply by either removing the fuse,  
unplugging it from the outlet, or  
manually "tripping" the circuit  
breaker.  
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned  
using a non-abrasive stainless steel  
cleaner.  
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner  
for stainless steel can be applied.

cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool  
or caustic (oven) cleaners on the  
hood. They will damage the surface.  
^ All external surfaces and controls can  
be cleaned with warm water and  
liquid dish soap applied with a soft  
sponge.  
^ Wipe dry using a soft cloth.  
Do not use too much water when  
cleaning the controls. Water could  
penetrate the electronics and cause  
damage.  
^ Glass surfaces can be cleaned using  
a glass cleaner.  
Avoid:  
– cleaning agents containing soda,  
acids or chlorides,  
– abrasive cleaning agents  
e.g. powder or cream cleansers,  
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers  
or sponges which have been  
previously used with abrasive  
cleaning agents.  
These will damage the surface.

Cleaning and Care  
Grease filters  
Cleaning the grease filters  
The reusable metal grease filters  
remove solid particles from the vented  
kitchen air (grease, dust, etc).  
^ - By hand: use a scrub brush in  
warm water with a mild detergent.  
- In a dishwasher: place the filters  
vertically in the lower basket, making  
sure that the spray arm is not  
blocked. Wash using the "Sani Wash"  
or "Normal Plus" programs.  
Depending on the detergent,  
cleaning the grease filters in a  
dishwasher may cause permanent  
discoloration of the filter surface.  
Performance of the filter will not be  
affected by this discoloration.  
The grease filters should be cleaned  
every 3 - 4 weeks or when the grease  
filter indicator lights.  
A dirty filter is a fire hazard.  
^ After cleaning, the filters can be  
placed on a towel to air dry.  
^ While the filters are removed, clean  
any dirt or grease from the filter  
casing to prevent the risk of fire.  
When putting the grease filters back  
make sure that the locking clips are  
visibly facing the cooking surface.  
If the filters are incorrectly installed,  
insert a small screwdriver into the slit  
along its edge to disengage it from the  
casing.  
^ To remove the grease filters pull the  
locking clips, 1, forward. Lower the  
filter 45°, 2, unhook it at the rear, 3,  
and take it out. Support the grease  
filter so that it does not fall onto the  
cooktop.  
^ After returning the grease filters,  
press and hold the grease filter  
button for 3 seconds to reset the  
timer. The indicator light will go out.  
^ If the grease filters are cleaned  
before the grease filter timer has  
reached its maximum, press the  
grease filter button for 6 seconds to  
reset the counter to zero.

Cleaning and Care  
Changing the light bulb  
Before changing the light bulbs,  
disconnect the hood from the power  
supply by either removing the fuse,  
unplugging it, or manually "tripping"  
the circuit breaker.  
When in use halogen bulbs become  
extremely hot, and they can burn  
your hands. Do not attempt to  
change the bulbs until they have  
had sufficient time to cool.  
^ To change the halogen bulb first  
remove the lamp cover, a.  
^ Pull the bulb, b, out of its socket and  
replace with a new one.  
Do not touch the bulb surface.  
Fingerprints or body oils deposited  
on the bulb will decrease the life of  
the bulb.  
Follow the bulb manufacturer’s  
instructions.  
^ Return the lamp cover, a.  
Never use the lighting without the  
lamp cover, a, in place. The glass is  
specially made to filter harmful light  
rays.

The exhaust gases extracted by  
the hood should be vented  
outside of the building only.  
For efficient air extraction, the  
diameter of the ductwork should not  
be less than 6" (150 mm). Use of flat  
ducts also reduces the air extraction  
efficiency.  
Noise levels of the hood will increase  
if flat ducts or round ducts of less  
than 6" (150 mm) in diameter are  
used.  
Do not terminate the exhaust  
ducts in attics, garages,  
crawlspaces, etc.  
Use smooth or flexible pipes made  
from approved non-flammable  
materials for exhaust ducting.  
To reduce the risk of fire, only use  
metal ductwork.  
Where the ductwork is horizontal, it  
must slope away from the hood at  
least 1/8" per foot (1 cm per meter) to  
prevent condensation from dripping  
into the appliance.  
Please read and follow the  
"IMPORTANT SAFETY  
INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of  
personal injury. Follow all local building  
codes when installing the hood.  
If the exhaust is ducted through an  
outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall  
Vent can be used.

Air extraction  
Condensate trap  
(optional accessory)  
If the exhaust is ducted into an inactive  
flue, the air must be expelled parallel to  
the flow direction of the flue.  
In some cases, a condensate trap may  
also be required to collect and  
evaporate any condensation which may  
occur. This optional accessory is  
available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and  
5 7/8" (150 mm) in diameter.  
Never connect an exhaust hood to  
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent  
flue, or room venting ductwork.  
Seek professional advice before  
connecting an exhaust hood vent to  
an existing, inactive chimney or vent  
flue.  
When installing a condensate trap,  
ensure that it is positioned vertically  
and if possible directly above the  
exhaust outlet. The arrow on the casing  
shows the venting direction.  
Important!  
If the ductwork runs through rooms,  
ceilings, garages, etc. where  
temperature variations exist, it may  
need to be insulated to reduce  
condensation.
