Functional description
The ventilation hood offers two modes
of operation:
Air extraction
Recirculation mode
Air is drawn through the grease filter
and active charcoal filter. The filtered
air is then recirculated back into the
kitchen through a vent at the top of the
hood’s chimney.
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter 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.
The active charcoal filter and the
installation kit may be purchased from
your Miele.
When the hood is turned on, the air
pressure of the exhaust fan auto-
matically opens the flap blowing the
inside air and cooking odors outside.
Before using the hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
active charcoal filter is in place, see
"Cleaning and Care".

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 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 dis-
colored or damaged if not cleaned
regularly.

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 lower retaining
plate. It must be firmly attached to
the stud framing behind the drywall.
If studs are not available in the
required locations, a plywood
backing (min. ½" (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 a vertical cutting line along the
center of each stud.
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 where this
installation is being performed has
been turned off at the breaker panel
before cutting into the wall.
^ Remove the drywall between the
cutting lines and replace it with
plywood of a matching thickness
(min. ½" (13 mm) thick). Tape the
joints and refinish the wall.
(If plywood backing is not needed,
proceed to the included installation
sheet.)
To install a plywood backing
^ Proceed to the included installation
sheet to complete the installation.
^ Determine and mark the location of
the retaining plate for the canopy as
outlined on the installation sheet.

hood (S)
Do not install this exhaust hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.
The installation procedure differs
depending on the model and venting
method.
Provided a larger distance is not
given by the manufacturer of the
cooktop, follow the minimum safety
distances between a cooktop and
the bottom of the hood:
Before beginning the installation:
^ Read all instructions.
^ Determine height (S), regarding the
user’s body height, i.e. a comfortable
height for the user.
- 22" (550 mm) above electric
cooktops,
- 30" (762 mm) above gas cooktops,
- 26" (650 mm) above an open
electric grill or an open electric
boiler/fryer.
However, the greater the distance the
less effectively cooking odors are
drawn in.
^ If the hood is fitted flush to the
ceiling, regard the possible unit
height when selecting the installation
height.
If local building codes require a
greater safety distance, follow their
requirement.
Standard unit height H
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.

Installation instructions
Dismantling
^ See the enclosed installation
instruction sheet.
If the hood needs to be disassembled,
follow the instructions on the installation
sheet in the reverse order.
^ Please read the "Important Safety
Instructions" and Installation
instructions before installing this
hood.
A lever is enclosed for easier removal
of the chimney extension.
Protective film
The casing is covered with a protective
film to prevent scratching during
transport.
^ Peel off the film before installing the
casing parts.
^ After removing the screws from the
chimney, slide the lever between the
chimney and the chimney extension
and gently apply pressure to ease
the chimney from its hooks.

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 (1 cm 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
optional accessory
In some cases, a condensate trap may
also be required to collect and
evaporate any condensate which may
occur. This optional accessory is
available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and
5 7/8" (150 mm) in diameter.
– 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, 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.
Important
If the ductwork runs through rooms,
ceilings, garages, etc. where
temperature variations exist, it may
need to be insulated to reduce
condensation.
