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.

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 also be used.  
Apply sparingly with even pressure.  
Cleaning the casing  
Stainless steel colored controls  
,Never use abrasive cleaners,  
scouring pads, steel wool or caustic  
(oven) cleaners on the hood. They  
will damage the surface.  
These controls may become  
discolored or damaged if not  
cleaned regularly.  
Do not use a stainless steel cleaner  
on these controls.  
^ All external surfaces and controls can  
be cleaned with warm water and  
liquid dish soap applied with a soft  
sponge.

Cleaning and Care  
Grease filters  
^ Clean the filters  
- 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.  
The reusable metal grease filters  
remove solid particles from the vented  
kitchen air (grease, dust, etc).  
The grease filters should be cleaned  
every 3 - 4 weeks or whenever the  
grease filter indicator lights.  
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.  
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  
visible facing down towards the  
cooking surface.  
^ To remove the grease filters press the  
locking clips in towards the middle of  
the filter. Holding carefully, lower and  
remove the filter.  
If the filters are incorrectly installed,  
insert a small screwdriver into the slit  
along its edge to disengage it from the  
casing.  
^ After returning the grease filters,  
press 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, the grease  
filter button should be pressed for  
6 seconds to reset the counter to  
zero.

Plywood backing  
^ Find the studs to the left and right of  
the mounting location by tapping the  
wall or using a stud finder.  
The majority of the weight of the  
installed ventilation system will be  
supported by the canopy. Its  
mounting bracket must be firmly  
attached to the stud framing behind  
the drywall. If studs are not located  
in the required locations, a plywood  
backing (min. 1/2" (13 mm) thick)  
spanning at least two studs must be  
installed. Failure to adequately  
support the weight as stated may  
result in the ventilation system falling  
off the wall, causing personal injury  
and property damage.  
^ Mark the center of each of the studs  
with a vertical line.  
Be careful not to damage any wiring  
or plumbing that may be located  
behind the wall. Make sure that the  
power supply to the area being  
worked in has been turned off at the  
breaker panel before cutting into the  
wall.  
^ Cut out the drywall along the marked  
lines and replace it with plywood of a  
matching thickness (min. 1/2" (13 mm)  
thick). Tape the joints and refinish the  
wall.  
(If plywood backing is not needed,  
proceed to "Appliance dimensions and  
Installation")  
^ See enclosed installation sheet for  
instructions on how to install the  
appliance.  
To install a plywood backing board  
^ Determine and mark the location of

Air extraction  
Exhaust ducting and connections  
,WARNING  
The ducting should be as short and  
straight as possible, and the number  
of sharp bends should be minimized.  
Danger of toxic fumes.  
Gas cooking appliances release  
carbon monoxide that can be  
harmful or fatal if inhaled.  
For most 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.  
The exhaust gases extracted by  
the hood should be vented  
outside of the building only.  
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 (1cm per meter) to  
prevent condensation 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  
Important:  
If the ductwork runs through rooms,  
ceilings, garages, etc. where  
temperature variations exist, it may  
need to be insulated to reduce  
condensation. In some cases, a  
condensate trap may also be required  
to collect and evaporate any  
condensate which may occur.  
When installing a condensate trap,  
ensure that it is positioned vertically  
and if possible directly above the  
exhaust outlet.  
If the exhaust is ducted into an  
inactive flue, the air must be expelled  
parallel to the flow direction of the  
flue.  
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.
