Technical safety
~Before installation, check the
rangehood for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. A damaged appliance is
dangerous.
~Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply, make sure that the
voltage and frequency details given on
the data plate correspond to the on-site
electricity supply, otherwise the
appliance could be damaged. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
~The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with current
local and national safety regulations. It
is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and tested
regularly and, where there is any doubt,
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~For safety reasons, this appliance
may only be used when it has been
fully installed.
~Only open the housing as described
in the instructions given in the
installation sheet and in the Cleaning
and care section of this booklet. Under
no circumstances should any other
parts of the housing be opened.
Tampering with electrical connections
or components and mechanical parts is
highly dangerous to the user, and can
cause operational faults.
~Installation, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
national and local safety regulations.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
~Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
parts. The manufacturer can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance
when Miele replacement parts are
used.
~During installation, maintenance and
repair work, the appliance must be
disconnected from the mains electricity
supply. It is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
– it is switched off at the mains fuse,
– the screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable),
–it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn from the
socket, or it is switched off at the
isolator.
If the appliance is connected via a
plug: Do not pull the mains
connection cable but the mains plug
to disconnect your appliance from
the mains electricity supply.
Warning and Safety instructions
5

~Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply via a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
~For appliances with an external fan
motor fitted (...EXT models), the
connection of the two units must be
made using the connection cable and
the plug connectors.
These models may only be combined
with a Miele external motor.
~This rangehood must not be
installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
~In areas which may be subject to
infestation by cockroaches or other
vermin, pay particular attention to
keeping the appliance and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all
times. Any damage which may be
caused by cockroaches or other vermin
will not be covered by the warranty.
Using at the same time as other
heating appliances that depend on
the air from the room
Warning - danger of toxic fumes
~Great care should be taken when
using the rangehood at the same time
and in the same room or area of the
house as another heating appliance
which depends on the air in the room.
Such appliances include gas, oil, wood
or coal-fired boilers and heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters,
gas cooktops or ovens which draw air
in from the room and duct exhaust
gases out through a chimney or
extraction ducting.
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
underpressure will occur. The heating
appliance may be starved of oxygen,
impairing combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn out of
the chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room, with potentially fatal
consequences.
Warning and Safety instructions
6

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.
Ventilation can be maintained by air
inlets which cannot be blocked, in
windows, doors and outside wall vents,
or by other technical measures, such
as ensuring that the extractor 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 must be
sought.
If the rangehood is being operated in
recirculation mode, the above
restrictions do not apply.
Warning and Safety instructions
7

Correct use
~Never use an open flame beneath
the rangehood. To avoid the danger of
fire, do not flambé or grill over an open
flame.
When switched on, the rangehood
could draw flames into the filter. Fat
particles drawn into the rangehood
present a fire hazard.
~When using the rangehood over a
gas cooktop, ensure that any burners in
use are always covered by a pan.
Switch the cooking zone off when a pan
is removed, even for a short time.
Regulate the flame so that it does not
burn up the sides of the pan.
Do not allow the pans to overheat
excessively (e.g. when using a wok).
The rangehood can become damaged
when exposed to excessive heat.
~Always switch the rangehood 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. Never leave
an open grill unattended when grilling.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and
could set the rangehood on fire.
~Do not use the rangehood without
the filters in place. This way you will
avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting
into the appliance and hindering its
smooth operation.
~The filters should be regularly
cleaned or changed as appropriate.
Saturated filters are a fire hazard. See
"Cleaning and care".
~The rangehood can get very hot
during cooking due to heat rising from
the cooktop.
Do not touch the housing or the grease
filters until the rangehood has cooled
down.
~Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
this appliance. Pressurised steam
could reach the electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
Warning and Safety instructions
8

Correct installation
~Refer to the rangehood or cooktop
manufacturer's instructions as to
whether a rangehood may be operated
above the cooktop.
~The minimum safety distances
between the top of the cooktop and the
bottom of the rangehood given in the
"Appliance dimensions" section of this
booklet must be maintained, unless the
cooktop manufacturer states that a
greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is
fitted beneath the rangehood, and they
have different minimum safety
distances to the rangehood, select the
greater distance.
~Safety regulations prohibit the fitting
of a rangehood over solid fuel stoves.
~All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable material.
These can be obtained from Miele or
from builders' merchants.
~The appliance must not be
connected 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, seek
professional advice.
Accessories
~Only use genuine Miele spare parts
and accessories with this rangehood. If
spare parts or accessories from other
manufacturers are used, this will
invalidate the warranty, and Miele
cannot accept liability.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.

Guide to the appliance
11

The rangehood works with
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and 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 in the exhaust
socket in the motor unit.
The DA 2210 has two motors and
requires two non-return flaps to be
fitted.
Having a non-return flap fitted in the
ducting ensures that air, once ducted
to the outside, cannot get back into the
room again.
The flap is closed when the rangehood
is switched off.
When the rangehood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
Please note, the performance of
this rangehood hinges greatly on
the installed ducting to vent the
vapours. Poor choice of ducting
results in poor rangehood
performance. For ducting
recommendations, please refer to
the relevant section in these
operating instructions or contact a
specialised installer.
. . . air recirculation:
(requires a conversion kit and charcoal
filters: see "Technical Data")
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by the
charcoal filters (2 on the DA 2250, DA
2270 and 4 on the DA 2210). The
cleaned air is then recirculated back
into the kitchen.
Before using the rangehood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filters are in place. See
"Cleaning and care".
...anexternal 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 rangehood by means of a
control cable, and is operated by
the controls on the rangehood.
