Warning and Safety instructions  
Warning and Safety instructions  
Technical safety  
This appliance conforms to current  
safety requirements. Incorrect use  
can lead to injury and damage to  
the appliance.  
Before connecting the appliance  
to the mains supply, make sure  
that the voltage and frequency details  
on the data plate correspond with the  
on-site electricity supply. This data  
must correspond in order to avoid risk  
of damage to the appliance. Consult a  
qualified electrician if in doubt.  
Before installation and before using  
for the first time read the operating  
instructions carefully. They contain  
important information on safety, use  
and maintenance of the appliance.  
This way you will avoid the risk of  
accidents and damage to the ap-  
pliance.  
The electrical safety of this ap-  
pliance can only be guaranteed  
when continuity is complete between  
the appliance and an effective earthing  
system which complies with local and  
national regulations. It is most import-  
ant that this basic safety requirement is  
tested by a qualified electrician. The  
manufacturer cannot be held respon-  
sible for the consequences of an inade-  
quate earthing system (e.g. electric  
shock).  
Keep these operating instructions in  
a safe place and pass them on to  
any future user.  
Correct usage  
The appliance is intended for  
domestic use only.  
The manufacturer cannot be held  
responsible for damage caused by  
improper use of the appliance.  
Installation work and repairs may  
only be carried out by suitably  
qualified and competent persons to en-  
sure safety. Repairs and other work by  
unqualified persons could be dan-  
gerous and the manufacturer will not  
be held responsible.  
This equipment is not designed for  
maritime use or for use in mobile in-  
stallations such as caravans, aircraft  
etc. However, it may be suitable for  
such usage subject to a risk assess-  
ment of the installation being carried  
out by a suitably qualified engineer.

Warning and Safety instructions  
The appliance is only completely  
isolated from the electricity supply  
when:  
Otherwise flames could be drawn up  
by the suction of the cooker hood,  
parts of which could then be damaged.  
Always switch the cooker hood on  
when using the hob, otherwise con-  
densation may collect in the hood,  
which could cause corrosion.  
– it is switched off at the wall socket  
and the plug removed. (Do not pull  
on the cable, only on the plug), or  
– the fuse from the fused spur connec-  
tion unit is withdrawn or,  
When cooking with oil or fat, chip  
pans and deep fat fryers etc, do  
not leave the pans unattended. Never  
leave an open grill unattended when  
grilling. Overheated oil and fat can ig-  
nite and could set the cooker hood on  
fire.  
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or  
– the screw-out fuse is removed in  
countries where this is applicable.  
Ensure power is not supplied to  
the appliance while maintenance  
or repair work is being carried out.  
Do not use the cooker hood with-  
out the grease filters in place.  
This way you will avoid the risk of  
grease and dirt getting into the ap-  
pliance and hindering its smooth oper-  
ation.  
Do not connect the appliance to  
the mains electricity supply by an  
extension lead.  
Extension leads do not guarantee the  
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.  
danger of overheating).  
The filters should be regularly  
cleaned or changed as appropri-  
ate. Saturated filters are a fire hazard.  
Use  
Under no circumstances use a  
steam cleaner to clean this ap-  
pliance. Pressurised steam could  
reach the electrical components and  
cause a short circuit.  
Do not let small children play with  
the appliance or its controls or  
operate it. Supervise its use by the el-  
derly or infirm.  
Never use an open flame beneath  
the cooker hood. To avoid the  
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill  
over an open flame.  
When switched on, the cooker hood  
could draw flames into the filter. Fat par-  
ticles drawn into the cooker hood pres-  
ent a fire hazard.  
In countries where there are areas  
which may be subject to infesta-  
tion by cockroaches or other vermin,  
pay particular attention to keeping the  
appliance and its surroundings in a  
clean condition at all times. Any dam-  
age which may be caused by cock-  
roaches or other vermin will not be  
covered by the appliance guarantee.  
When using the cooker hood over  
a gas hob ensure that any burners  
in use are always covered by a pan.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Installation  
If exhaust air is to be extracted into  
a chimney or ventilation duct no  
longer used for other purposes, seek  
The distance between the top of  
the cooker/hob and the bottom of  
the cooker hood must measure at least:  
professional advice.  
– 450 mm above electric hobs and  
cookers  
– 650 mm above gas hobs and  
cookers  
– 650 mm above an open grill from our  
range  
When fitted above an open grill the  
cooker hood must not be used in recir-  
culation mode.  
For non-Miele cooking appliances  
maintain the safety distance as recom-  
mended by the manufacturer in their  
Installation and Operating instructions.  
If more than one appliance is fitted be-  
neath the cooker hood and they have  
different minimum safety distances to  
the cooker hood, select the greater  
distance.  
Safety regulations prohibit the  
fitting of a cooker hood over solid  
fuel stoves.  
All ducting, pipework and fittings  
must be of non-flammable ma-  
terial. These can be obtained from the  
Miele Spare Parts department or from  
builders’ merchants.  
The appliance must not be con-  
nected to a chimney or vent flue  
which is in use. Neither should it be  
connected to ducting which ventilates  
rooms with fireplaces.

Warning and Safety instructions  
Appliances with external fans  
When using the cooker hood in  
extraction mode at the same time  
as another heating appliance which de-  
pends on the air in the room, (e.g. gas,  
oil or coal fired heaters, continuous flow  
or other water heaters, gas cooker, gas  
hob or gas oven) special care must be  
taken, as the action of the cooker hood  
extracts air from the room, which these  
types of heater need for combustion.  
For appliances with an external fan  
motor fitted (EXT models) the con-  
nection of the two units must be made  
using the connection cable and the  
plug connectors. Make sure the correct  
combination of the two appliances has  
been selected.  
Separate instructions are supplied with  
the external fan.  
They could also draw exhaust air back  
in from chimneys or ducting in con-  
travention of fire safety regulations.  
Disposal of your old appliance  
Before discarding an old ap-  
pliance, switch off and disconnect  
it from the power supply. Cut off and  
render any plug useless. Cut off the  
cable directly behind the appliance to  
prevent misuse.  
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 extractor and the  
heater are in operation simultaneously,  
an underpressure in the room of 0.04  
mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible.  
This should be done by a competent  
person.  
Ventilation can be maintained by air in-  
lets which cannot be blocked, in win-  
dows, doors and outside wall vents, or  
by other technical measures, such as  
ensuring that the extractor can only be  
switched on when the heating ap-  
The manufacturer cannot be held  
liable for damage caused by non-  
compliance with these Warning and  
Safety instructions.  
pliance is switched off or vice-versa.  
N.B: The overall ventilation condition of  
the dwelling must be taken into ac-  
count. If in any doubt, the advice of a  
competent builder or, for gas, a "Corgi"  
installer must be sought.  
If the cooker hood is operated in recir-  
culation mode (with active charcoal  
filter) then the above restrictions do not  
apply.

The air is drawn in and cleaned first by  
grease filters and then cleaned by ac-  
tive charcoal filters. The cleaned air is  
then recirculated back into the kitchen  
through a vent in the top of the cooker  
hood extension piece.  
. . . air extraction  
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the  
grease filters and directed outside.  
The cooker hood is fitted with a  
non-return flap.  
Before using the cooker hood for  
the first time, ensure that the active  
charcoal filters are in place, see  
section on "Cleaning and care".  
This flap is closed when the cooker  
hood is switched off. No exchange of  
room air and outside air can take  
place. When the cooker hood is  
switched on, the non-return flap opens  
for the cooking vapours to be blown di-  
rectly outside.  
. . . an external fan  
The EXT models are designed to be  
connected to an external fan located  
outside the room.  
The external fan is connected to the  
cooker hood by means of a control  
cable and is operated by the control  
panel on the cooker hood.

Operation  
Altering the filter operating hours  
counter  
The indicator lamp above the grease fil-  
ter touch control and one of the lamps  
above the /+ touch controls will flash.  
The operating hours counter for the  
grease filters is set to 30 hours. This  
can be lengthened or shortened to suit  
the type of cooking you do. You can  
choose from 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours.  
The /+ touch control lamps show the  
time which has been set:  
1st lamp from the left = 20 hours  
2nd lamp from the left = 30 hours  
3rd lamp from the left = 40 hours  
4th lamp from the left = 50 hours  
Select a short time if you roast or fry  
a lot.  
If you use very little fat for cooking,  
select a longer time.  
If, however, you only cook occasion-  
ally we recommend that you select a  
short time because grease which  
has built up gradually over a long  
period of time will harden on the  
grease filters and make cleaning  
more difficult.  
Use the /+ touch controls to select  
the desired time.  
Confirm the selection by pressing  
the grease filter touch control.  
Procedure:  
If the procedure is not confirmed  
within 4 minutes of programming  
the steps, the cooker hood will auto-  
matically revert to the "old" data.

Cleaning and care  
Grease filters  
lower basket, ensuring the spray arm  
is not obstructed.  
Re-usable metal filters are fitted which  
remove solid particles (oil, dust, etc.)  
from the kitchen vapours, preventing  
soiling of the cooker hood.  
Depending on the cleaning agent  
used, cleaning the grease filters in  
a dishwasher can cause permanent  
discolouration to the surface of the  
filters.  
However, this will not affect the func-  
tioning of the grease filters in any  
way.  
The filters should be cleaned regularly  
(at least every 3-4 weeks) to avoid a  
build-up of fat, but always clean as  
soon as the grease filter touch control  
lamp comes on.  
After cleaning, leave the filters to dry  
on an absorbent surface before put-  
ting them back in place.  
When removing the filters for clean-  
ing also clean off any residues of oil  
or fat from the now accessible hous-  
ing to prevent the risk of these catch-  
ing fire.  
An over saturated filter is a fire  
hazard.  
When replacing the grease filters, en-  
sure the locking clips are visible facing  
down towards the hob.  
Should the grease filters be put back  
upside down:  
insert a small screwdriver into the slits  
to disengage them. Do not let them  
drop on to the hob below.  
After replacing the grease filters,  
press the grease filter touch control  
for approx. 3 seconds to re-set the  
operating hours counter. The indica-  
tor lamp will go out.  
To take out the grease filters press  
the locking clips in towards the  
middle of the filter. Holding carefully,  
lower and remove the filter.  
If the grease filters are cleaned be-  
fore the operating hours counter has  
reached its maximum, the grease fil-  
ter touch control should be pressed  
for approx. 6 seconds to reset the  
counter to zero.

Cleaning and care  
Fitting / replacing the active  
charcoal filters  
Always replace the filters immediately if  
the lamp for the active charcoal filter  
touch control comes on, or if they are  
no longer effective in absorbing kitchen  
odours.  
They should, however, be replaced at  
least every 6 months.  
After fitting new active charcoal fil-  
ters, press the active charcoal filter  
touch control for approx. 3 seconds  
to re-set the operating hours counter.  
The indicator lamp will go out.  
If the cooker hood is connected for re-  
circulation, two active charcoal filters  
must be inserted in addition to the  
grease filters. These filters absorb nor-  
mal kitchen odours.  
They are fitted in the canopy above the  
grease filters.  
If the active charcoal filters are re-  
placed before the operating hours  
counter has reached its maximum,  
the active charcoal filter touch con-  
trol should be pressed for approx. 6  
seconds to reset the counter to zero.  
Active charcoal filters can be ob-  
tained from your dealer or the Miele  
Spare Parts Department.  
Refer to the section "Technical data"  
for type and reference number.  
Before fitting or replacing the active  
charcoal filters, the grease filters  
must first be taken out, (see previous  
section for instructions on how to do  
this).  
The filters are supplied with fitting in-  
structions. Ensure these are carefully  
followed.  
When fitting for the first time:  
Set the operating hours counter to  
suit your requirements, (see "Oper-  
ation - Altering the filter operating

Installation  
Recirculation  
Extension piece  
If site conditions are not suitable for the  
cooker hood to be used for air extrac-  
tion the appliance must be connected  
for recirculation.  
An extension piece allows the cooker  
hood to be fitted at varying distances  
from the ceiling (see section appliance  
dimensions).  
The extension piece has openings at  
each side. These are needed for venti-  
lation when the appliance is being  
used in recirculation mode.  
Push the directional unit on to the  
top retaining plate.  
Recirculation  
Extraction  
For recirculation the extension piece is  
fitted with the openings at the top.  
For air extraction the openings are not  
required. In this case the extension  
piece is fitted with the openings at the  
bottom. They are then covered by the  
tower.  
Secure the flexible hose supplied to  
the directional unit and to the reduc-  
ing collar on the motor unit using  
hose clips.  
Insert the recirculation active char-  
coal filters (see section "Cleaning  
and care").  
The recirculation active charcoal fil-  
ters necessary for recirculation are  
available from the Spare Parts De-  
partment or your dealer.

remove the protective foil.  
Screw the extension piece firmly to  
the upper retaining plate at each  
side with two 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws.  
Bend the top hanging retainers ap-  
prox. 45° inwards. This makes fitting  
easier.  
Only with recirculation mode: Fit the  
recirculation grilles into the extension  
piece and into the directional unit be-  
hind so that the slats point down-  
wards.  
Recirculation  
Extraction  
Pull the extension piece slightly  
outwards and push over the upper  
retaining plate.

Fitting the tower  
The paper protective sheet protects the  
extension piece from being scratched  
when the tower is being fitted. It is  
removed when fitting is complete.  
Before fitting remove the protective  
foil.  
A protective cardboard sheet protects  
the tower from accidental scratching  
during fitting.  
Fold the protective sheet at the top.  
Remove the protective foil from  
around the sticking points.  
Remove the protective foil from  
around the sticking points.  
Stick the protective sheet to the ex-  
tension piece so that it is smooth at  
the sides and flush at the bottom.  
Attach the protective sheet to the  
front of the tower so that it protrudes  
slightly below the bottom edge.

Danger of toxic fumes.  
Please heed the "Warning and  
Safety instructions" to avoid the  
danger of toxic fumes.  
This is to ensure that condensate can-  
not drain back into the cooker hood.  
The cooker hood should be in-

scopic wall vent is recommended.  
stalled according to local building  
regulations. Seek approval from the  
building inspector where necessary.  
All ducting, pipework and fittings  
must be of non-flammable material.  
The extraction ducting should be as  
short and straight as possible.  
To ensure efficient air extraction the  
diameter of the exhaust ducting  
should not be less than 150 mm.  
If exhaust ducting with a diameter  
of less than 150 mm or flat ducting  
were to be used, the noise level of  
the cooker hood would increase  
and extraction would be less effi-  
cient.  
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into  
a vent flue, the ducting must be di-  
rected in the flow direction of the flue.  
Only reduce the diameter of the duct-  
ing if absolutely necessary, e.g.  
where narrower ducting has already  
been installed.  
Only use wide radius bends. Tight  
bends reduce the air throughput of  
the cooker hood.  
Only use smooth pipes or flexible  
hoses made from non-flammable ma-  
terials for extraction connection.

Connection for air extraction  
Important:  
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 prob-  
lem of sweating or condensation will  
need to be addressed. The exhaust  
ducting will need to be suitably insu-  
lated.  
Condensate trap  
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.  
When installing a condensate trap  
ensure that it is positioned vertically  
and if possible directly above the  
exhaust connection.

Electrical connection  
Electrical connection  
For extra safety it is advisable to install  
a residual current device (RCD) with a  
trip current of 30 mA (in accordance  
with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100 Section  
739).  
All electrical work should be under-  
taken by a suitably qualified and  
competent person in strict accord-  
ance with national and local safety  
regulations.  
Do not connect via an extension lead.  
Installation, repairs and other work  
by unqualified persons could be  
dangerous. The manufacturer can  
not be held responsible for unauth-  
orised work.  
Ensure power is not supplied to the  
appliance while installation or repair  
work is being carried out.  
Important UK  
If the appliance is fitted with a non-re-  
wireable plug (BS 1363 UK) and the  
socket outlets are not suitable for the  
plug supplied, or if the existing plug  
needs to be replaced by a new one,  
the old plug will need to be cut off and  
an appropriate plug fitted. The fuse car-  
rier and the fuse should be removed  
from the old plug and disposed of. The  
plug cut from the cable should then be  
disposed of, and on no account be in-  
serted into any socket elsewhere in the  
house (electric shock hazard).  
U.K., IRL, NZ, ZA: The cooker hood is  
supplied for connection to an a.c.  
230 V single phase 50 Hz supply.  
AUS: The cooker hood is supplied for  
connection to an a.c. single phase  
240 V, 50 Hz supply.  
The voltage, rated load and fusing are  
given on the data plate. This is visible  
when the grease filters have been  
removed. Ensure that these match the  
household mains supply.  
The fuse cover must be re-fitted when  
changing the fuse and if the fuse cover  
is lost the plug must not be used until a  
suitable replacement is obtained.  
The colour of the correct replacement  
cover is that of the coloured insert in  
the base of the plug or the colour that  
is embossed in words in the base of  
the plug (as applicable to the design of  
plug fitted).  
For U.K.: Connection should be made  
either by a double pole fused spur con-  
nection unit, or a fused plug and a suit-  
able switched socket. The On-Off  
switch should be easily accessible  
after the appliance has been built in.  
When switched off there must be an all-  
pole contact gap of 3 mm in the switch  
(including switch, fuses and relays ac-  
cording to EN 60 335).  
The correct fuse rating of the replace-  
ment fuses that are ASTA approved to  
BS 1362 should be fitted. Replacement  
fuse covers may be purchased from  
your local electrical suppliers or  
Service agent.  
If the socket is not accessible after in-  
stallation (depending on country) an ad-  
ditional means of disconnection must  
be provided for all poles.
