Functional description
The ventilation hood works by air ex-
traction. The air is drawn in and
cleaned by the grease filters and di-
rected 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 ex-
haust 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 man-
ually "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
Warning: Never use abrasive clean-
ers, scouring pads, steel wool or
caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood.
They will damage the surface.
Stainless steel colored controls
These controls may become discol-
ored or damaged if not cleaned reg-
ularly.
Do not use a stainless steel cleaner
on these controls.
^ All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned with warm water and liq-
uid 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 into the electronics and
cause damage.
^ Glass surfaces can be cleaned using
glass cleaner.
Avoid:
– cleaning agents containing soda, ac-
ids or chlorides,
– abrasive cleaning agents e.g. pow-
der or cream cleansers,
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers
or sponges which have been previ-
ously used with abrasive cleaning
agents.
These will damage the surface.

Cleaning and Care
Grease filters
The reusable metal grease filters re-
move 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.
^ To remove the grease filters press the
locking clips in towards the middle of
the filter. Holding carefully, lower and
remove the filter.
A dirty filter is a fire hazard.
^ Clean the filters
- by hand: use a scrub brush in
warm water with a mild detergent.
- in a dishwasher: place the filters in
the lower basket, making sure that
the spray arm is not blocked.
Depending on the detergent, clean-
ing 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.
^ 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 cas-
ing to prevent the risk of fire.

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 indi-
cator light will go out.

Plywood backing
^ Hold retaining plate A against the
wall so that the marks are visible
through the holes of the plate (see
"Installation / Retaining plate A").
Draw a line around the plate’s perim-
eter, then set aside the plate.
The majority of the weight of the in-
stalled ventilation system will be
supported by retaining plate A. It
must be firmly attached to the stud
framing behind the drywall. If studs
are not available in the required lo-
cations, 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 dam-
age.
^ Make a cutting line 3" (76 mm) above
and 3" (76 mm) below the outline of
plate "A".
^ Find the studs to the left and right of
the mounting location by tapping the
wall or using a stud finder.
^ Mark a vertical cutting line along the
center of each stud.
Be careful not to damage any wiring
or plumbing that may be located be-
hind the wall. Make sure that the
power supply to the area where this
installation is being performed has
been turned off at the breaker panel
before cutting into the wall.
(If plywood backing is not needed, pro-
ceed to "Attaching the retaining plates
to the wall." )
To install a plywood backing board
^ Remove the drywall between the cut-
ting lines and replace it with plywood
of a matching thickness (min. 1/2"
(13 mm) thick). Tape the joints and
refinish the wall.
^ Proceed to "Attaching the Retaining
plates to the wall" to complete the in-
stallation.
^ Make a mark, S + 16 3/4" (425 mm)
above the cooktop and on the center-
line.

Installation
Attaching the chimney
extension
The use of a chimney extension, allows
the hood to be installed at various dis-
tances from the ceiling.
^ Remove the protective foil from the
chimney extension.
^ Secure the chimney extension to the
upper retaining plate with two
3.9 x 7.5 mm screws.
^ Bend the top hanging tabs 45° in-
wards. This will make installing the
chimney extension easier. Be careful
of sharp edges.
^ Fold the protective shield at the top.
^ Remove the adhesive backing from
the shield.
^ Stick the shield to the chimney exten-
sion so that it is smooth and flush
with the bottom.
^ Pull the chimney extension slightly
outwards and snap over the upper
retaining plate B.

Installation
Attaching the chimney
^ Secure the chimney to retaning plate
A on both sides with two 3.9 x 7.5
mm screws.
^ Remove the protective foil from the
canopy.
If the chimney is not tall enough an
optional chimney extension can be
ordered. See "Appliance dimen-
sions".
^ Remove the protective foil from the
chimney.
^ Pull the chimney apart slightly and
slide it over the chimney extension.
Do this carefully to prevent scratch-
ing the two pieces.
^ Slide the chimney down about 3/4"
(2 cm) into the canopy.
^ Align and adjust the chimney.
^ Remove the protective shields.
^ Before using the appliance remove
the grease filter and remove the pro-
tective foil from the filter frame. Re-
turn the filter.

Air extraction
– Use smooth or flexible pipes made
from approved non-flammable mate-
rials for exhaust ducting.
Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release
carbon monoxide that can be harm-
ful or fatal if inhaled. The exhaust
gases extracted by the hood
should be vented outside of the
building only.
Do not terminate the exhaust
ducts in attics, garages,
crawlspaces, etc.
– 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.
– If the exhaust is ducted through an
outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall
Vent can be used.
Please read and follow the "Warning
and Safety Instructions" to reduce the
risk of personal injury. Follow all local
building codes when installing the
hood.
Exhaust ducting and connections
– The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible, and the number
of sharp bends should be minimized.
– 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.
– Noise levels of the hood will increase
if flat ducts or round ducts of less
than 6" (150 mm) in diameter are
used.
– If the exhaust is ducted into an inac-
tive flue, the air must be expelled
parallel to the flow direction of the
flue.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal ductwork.
CAUTION
To reduce risk of fire and to properly
exhaust air, be sure to duct air out-
side. Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings or
into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

Air extraction
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent
flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connect-
ing an exhaust hood vent to an exist-
ing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
Ductwork with a diameter of less
than 6" (150 mm) should only be
used when absolutely necessary. As
duct diameter decreases, the hood’s
performance and sound levels will
be affected.
Important:
If the ductwork runs through rooms,
ceilings, garages, etc. where tempera-
ture variations exist, it may need to be
insulated to reduce condensation. In
some cases, a condensate trap may
also be required to collect and evapo-
rate any condensate which may occur.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the ex-
haust outlet.
