When used in extraction mode, with or  
without an external motor fitted, the  
appliance draws air in from the room in  
which it is installed and from  
neighbouring rooms.  
If there is insufficient air, an

the chimney or extraction ducting back  
into the room, with potentially fatal  
consequences.

Warning and Safety instructions  
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 cooker  
hood and the heater are in operation  
simultaneously, an underpressure of  
0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum  
permissible in the room.  
Ventilation can be maintained by air  
inlets which must not be blocked, in  
windows, doors and outside wall vents,  
or by other technical measures, such  
as ensuring that the cooker hood 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  
qualified gas fitter (Corgi registered  
in the UK) must be sought.  
If the hood is being operated in  
recirculation mode, the above  
restrictions do not apply.

Modes of operation  
The cooker hood works with  
. . . air extraction:

(available as an optional extra with a  
conversion kit and charcoal filter: see  
"Technical Data")  
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the  
stainless steel outer filter and the  
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by  
the stainless steel outer filter and the  
grease filter and then by a charcoal  
filter. The cleaned air is then  
grease filter, and then directed outside.  
If the on-site ventilation system does  
not have a non-return flap, then the  
non-return flap supplied with the  
appliance must be fitted  
recirculated back into the kitchen  
through grilles in the top of the cooker  
hood extension piece.  
Having a non-return flap fitted in the  
ducting ensures that air, once ducted  
to the outside, cannot get back into the  
room again.  
Charcoal filters are available to order  
through your Dealer / Chartered Agent  
or the Miele Spare Parts Department.  
(See back cover for contact details and  
"Technical Data" for model number).  
The flap is closed when the cooker  
hood is switched off.  
When the cooker hood is switched on,  
the non-return flap opens for the  
cooking vapours to be blown directly  
outside.  
Before using the cooker hood in  
recirculation mode, ensure that the  
charcoal filter is in place. See  
"Cleaning and care".  
. . . an external motor:  
(EXT models only)  
EXT models are designed to be  
connected to an external motor located  
outside the room.  
The external motor is connected to the  
cooker hood by means of a control  
cable, and is operated by the controls  
on the cooker hood.

Aluminium is affected by the way that  
light falls on it, by the surrounding  
environment and by the angle you  
observe it from.  
The stainless steel outer filter and the  
re-usable metal grease filter remove  
solid particles from the kitchen vapours  
(grease, dust, etc), preventing soiling of  
the cooker hood.  
Aluminium surfaces and controls  
may suffer discolouration or damage  
if soiling is left on for too long.  
Remove any soiling straight away.  
Observe the General notes on cleaning  
earlier in this section.  
The stainless steel outer filter and  
grease filter should be cleaned  
regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to  
avoid a built-up of grease, but always  
clean them immediately if the grease  
filter indicator light comes on.  
Do not use:  
– stainless steel cleaning agents,  
– cleaning agents containing  
descaling agents,  
Both the outer filter and the grease filter  
should be cleaned.

Installation  
Dismantling  
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 cooker hood at the same  
time as a heating appliance that  
relies on oxygen from the same  
room to avoid the danger of toxic  
fumes building up.  
Should the appliance need to be  
dismantled, follow the installation  
instructions in reverse order as  
described on the Installation sheet.  
A lever is supplied to assist with the  
removal of the tower.  
Installation instructions  
See enclosed Installation sheet for  
instructions on how to install this  
appliance.  
Protective foil  
^ After loosening the fixing screws on  
the tower, push the lever between the  
tower and the extension piece to  
lever the tower out of its fixings.  
(on stainless steel appliances)  
The tower and extension piece have  
protective foil around them to prevent  
them being damaged during transport.  
Please remove this foil before fitting  
them. It can be peeled off easily.

Connection for air extraction  
– Only use smooth pipes or flexible  
hoses made from non-flammable  
materials for the extraction ducting.  
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.  
– When using an external motor, make  
sure that the exhaust ducting is  
sufficiently rigid. The external motor  
can cause an underpressure which  
could result in the exhaust ducting  
distorting.  
To achieve the greatest possible air  
extraction with the lowest noise level,  
please note the following:  
– To ensure efficient air extraction, the  
diameter of the exhaust ducting  
should not be less than 150 mm.  
– If flat ducting is being used, the  
cross-sectional area must not be  
smaller than the cross-sectional area  
of the exhaust connection.  
– The exhaust ducting should be as  
short and straight as possible.  
– Only use wide radius bends.  
– The exhaust ducting should not be  
kinked or compressed.  
– Ensure that all connections are  
strong and airtight.  
– 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.  
33

Connection for air extraction  
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into Condensate trap  
the open air, the installation of a  
(optional accessory)  
telescopic wall vent or roof vent is  
recommended.  
– 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.  
In addition to insulating the exhaust  
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  
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  
problem of condensation will need to  
be addressed. The exhaust ducting will  
need to be suitably insulated.  
C 150 mm ducting.  
When installing a condensate trap,  
ensure that it is positioned vertically  
and if possible directly above the  
exhaust connection. The arrow on the  
housing indicates the direction of  
air-flow.  
Cooker hoods designed for use with an  
external motor (...EXT models) have an  
integrated condensate trap.

Silencer  
...with air extraction:  
(optional accessory)  
The silencer not only reduces noise  
from the fan, but also sounds from  
outside (e.g. traffic noise).  
For this reason the silencer must be  
positioned as close as possible to where  
the ducting leaves the building a.  
...air extraction with external motor:  
To minimise noise from the motor in  
the kitchen, the silencer should be  
positioned in front of the external  
motor b if possible, or if the ducting is  
long, then in the ducting above the  
cooker hood itself c.  
To achieve even further reductions in  
noise levels, a special silencer can be  
fitted in the ducting system...  
In the case of an external motor placed  
inside the house, fitting a silencer  
behind the external motor d reduces  
the noise of the motor outside the  
house.  
In all modes of operation, the most  
effective noise reductions are  
achieved if two silencers are fitted  
one behind the other in the system.
