This appliance meets statutory
safety requirements. Inappropriate
use could however lead to risk of ac-
cidents to the user and damage to
the appliance.
Read the operating instructions be-
fore using this machine for the first
time. They contain important infor-
mation about the safety, use and
maintenance of the machine. This
will avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the machine.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and ensure that new
users are familiar with the content.
Pass them on to any future owner of
the machine.
Appropriate use of the cooker
hood
The appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for any damage caused by
improper use or by non-observance of
these instructions.
Technical safety
Before connecting the cooker
hood to the mains supply make
sure that the voltage and frequency de-
tails given on the data plate corre-
spond with the on-site electricity sup-
ply. If in doubt consult a qualified
electrician.
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 re-
sponsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec-
tric shock).
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 dangerous.
Warning and Safety instructions

The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when, depending on the type of installa-
tion,
– 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tion unit (if accessible) is withdrawn, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed, (in
countries where this is applicable).
Ensure current is not restored to the ap-
pliance while maintenance or repair
work is being carried out.
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)
Use of the appliance
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood - to avoid the
danger of fire do not flambé or grill
dishes. When switched on the cooker
hood could draw flames into the filter.
Fat particles drawn into the cooker
hood present a fire hazard.
When using the cooker hood over
a gas hob ensure that any burners
in use are covered by a pan. Otherwise
flames could be drawn up by the suc-
tion of the cooker hood, parts of which
could then be damaged.
Always switch the cooker hood on
when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in
the hood, which could cause corrosion.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip
pans and deep fat fryers etc, do
not leave the pans unattended.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and
could set the cooker hood on fire.
Do not use the cooker hood with-
out the grease filter in place.
This way you will avoid the risk of
grease and dirt getting into the ap-
pliance and hindering its smooth oper-
ation.
Warning and Safety instructions
5

Clean or change the filters regu-
larly.
Over-greasy filters are a fire hazard.
Under no circumstances use a
steam cleaner to clean this ap-
pliance.
Pressurised steam could give rise to a
short circuit, or cause permanent dam-
age to the surface and to components,
for which the manufacturer of the
cooker hood cannot accept any respon-
sibility.
In countries which may be subject
to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its surround-
ings in a clean condition at all times.
Any damage which might be caused
by cockroaches or other vermin will not
be covered by the appliance guarantee.
Installation
The distance between the top of
the hob and the bottom of the
cooker hood must measure at least:
–45 cm above electric hobs
–65 cm above gas hobs.
Australia / New Zealand:
–60 cm for eletric and gas hobs.
(For U.K. only) - There must be a
minimum distance of 65 cm be-
tween a gas hob and the cooker hood
in order to avoid exceeding the maxi-
mum nominal (heat) ratings.
Gas cooker maximum
nominal rating
one burner 2.7 kW
all burners 7.5 kW
oven 3.5 kW
Gas hob maximum
nominal rating
one burner 3.5 kW
all burners 10.3 kW
Gas hob with ceramic cover plate
The data given for maximum nominal (heat)
ratings do not aply to a gas hob with a ceramic
cover plate. In this case it is essential to refer to
the hob manufacturer’s data.
Safety regulations prohibit the fit-
ting 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.
If exhaust air is to be extracted into
a chimney or ventilation duct no
longer used for other purposes, take
professional advice.
Warning and Safety instructions
6

When using the cooker hood in ex-
traction 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.
In order to ensure safe operation, and
to prevent the gases given off by the
heating appliances from being drawn
back into the room when the extractor
and the heater are in operation simulta-
neously, an underpressure in the room
of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by air in-
lets which cannot be blocked, in win-
dows, doors and outside wall vents, or
by other techical measures, such as en-
suring that the extractor can only be
switched on when the heating ap-
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 compe-
tent builder or, for gas, a “Corgi”instal-
ler must be sought.
If the cooker hood is operated in re-
circulation mode (with active char-
coal filter) then the above restrictions
do not apply.
Disposal of an old machine
or appliance
Before discarding an old machine
or appliance render it useless. En-
sure that disconnection from the mains
supply is carried out by a competent
person and that the cable is also
removed from the appliance to prevent
misuse. Render any plug useless.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for any damage caused
by non-observance of these instruc-
tions.
Warning and Safety instructions

Descripton of the functions
The cooker hood works with
. . . 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.
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 smells to be blown di-
rectly outside.
. . . Air recirculation:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters. In addition it is then
cleaned by the active charcoal filter.
The cleaned air is then recirculated
back into the kitchen through a vent in
the top of the cooker hood.
Before using the cooker hood for
the first time, ensure that the active
charcoal filter is in place, see sec-
tion on “Cleaning and care”.

Operation
Notes on the switches
The sliding switch iturns the hob light-
ing on and off.
The sliding switch jturns the fan on
and off.
The sliding switch kselects one of the
four power settings available (1 = low).
Selecting the power level
The sliding switch kcan be used to se-
lect one of four power levels available
depending on how much the air needs
to be filtered. For normal cooking a low
to medium level is usually enough. For
frying or cooking food with a strong
aroma the "IS" intensive level is recom-
mended.
To operate
Set the sliding switch for the fan jat
“1”.
N.B. The cooker hood will run at the
power setting most recently selected.
Alter the power setting with sliding
switch kif a different power setting
is required.
After cooking
If the air still needs to be cleared after
cooking, we recommend letting the
cooker hood continue to run for a fur-
ther ten minutes.
Switching off
Set the sliding switch for the fan jto
“0”
Switching the lighting on and off
The hob lighting ican be switched on
and off independently of the fan.
"0" - lighting off
"1" - lighting on

Cleaning and Care
Before any cleaning or maintenance
work the cooker hood must be dis-
connected from the mains supply.
Depending on type of installation
either:
–switch it off at the wall socket and
remove the plug (do not pull on the
cable, only on the plug), or
–withdraw the fuse from the fused
spur connection unit (if accessible),
or
–withdraw the mains fuse, or
–remove the screw out fuse (in
countries where this is applicable).
Housing
The cooker hood housing may be
cleaned using hot water to which a little
mild washing-up liquid has been
added. Dry with a soft cloth.
Never use a cleaner which scours
or contains chlorine, acids or soda.
These would damage the surface of
the cooker hood.
A mild, non-abrasive proprietary stain-
less steel cleaner is suitable.
Grease filters
Re-usable metal grease filters are fitted
which remove solid particles (oil, dust,
etc.) from the kitchen vapours, prevent-
ing soiling of the cooker hood.
The grease filters should be cleaned
regularly to avoid a build-up of fat, (ap-
prox. 3-4 weeks or more frequently if
necessary).
An over-greasy filter is a fire hazard.
To remove a grease filter press the
hand hold catch towards the middle
of the filter.
Remove the filter(s).
Cleaning and Care
11

Clean the filter(s)
–by hand: with a scrubbing brush in
hot water with washing-up liquid.
–in a dishwasher: place the filters
with the short side upright in the
lower basket, ensuring the spray
arm is not obstructed.
Depending on the cleaning agent
used, cleaning the grease filter in a
dishwasher can cause permanent
discoloration of the surface of the fil-
ter.
However, this will not affect the func-
tioning of the grease filter in any
way.
After cleaning leave the filters to dry
for a while on an absorbent surface
before putting 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.
When putting the grease filters back
ensure that the handhold catches
face towards the hob.
Should the grease filters be put
back upside down, insert a small
screwdriver into the slits to disen-
gage them. Do not let them drop on
to the hob below.
Active charcoal filters
If the cooker hood is connected for re-
circulation, an active charcoal filter
must be inserted in addition to the
grease filters. Charcoal filters absorb
normal kitchen odours.
Remove the grease filters.
Insert the active charcoal filters so
that the catch faces towards the hob.
Put the grease filters back again.
Replace the charcoal filters at least
every six months or more frequently if
necessary. Otherwise the cooker hood
will cease to absorb the kitchen odours
sufficiently.
Cleaning and Care
12

Changing the light tube
and / or starter
If the lighting is not working the light
tube and/or starter may need changing.
Disconnect the cooker hood from
the mains supply by
–switching it off at the wall socket
and removing the plug (do not pull
on the cable, only on the plug), or
–withdrawing the fuse from the
fused spur connection unit (if ac-
cessible), or
–withdrawing the mains fuse, or
–removing the screw-out fuse (in
countries where this is applicable).
Unscrew the fixing screw of either
the right or left hand holder for the
glass cover.
When doing this, push the glass
cover upwards so that it does not fall
on the hob surface.
Take off the glass cover holder.
Take out the glass cover, guiding it
downwards at an angle.
When changing the light tube also
unscrew the second glass cover
holder.
Replace the light tube or the starter.
Put the glass cover back into place
and secure with the glass cover
holders.
