Description of the appliance
The cooker hood is suitable for . . .
. . . Air extraction:
Air is drawn in through the grease
filter fcleaned and directed outside.
. . . Air recirculation:
Air is drawn in through the grease
filter fand then through the active
charcoal filters for cleaning. It is
passed back into the kitchen through
the top of the kitchen cabinet.
Before using for the first time check
to see whether the active charcoal
filter is in place (see ”Cleaning and
Care“).
b- Slide switch for hob
illumination n
This is used to switch the hob illumina-
tion gon and off, regardless of
whether the cooker hood is in operation
or not. The deflector plate must be
pulled out a few centimetres for the
lighting to work.

Warning and Safety instructions
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.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug removed, (do not pull on
the cable, only on the plug)
– the mains fuse is withdrawn;
– or the screw-out fuse is removed, (in
countries where this is applicable). En-
sure 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)
Warning and Safety instructions

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 always covered by a pan.
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 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.
The filters should be regularly
cleaned, or changed, as appropri-
ate.
Saturated 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.
Warning and Safety instructions

Installation
The distance between the top of
the hob and the bottom of the
cooker hood (when the vapour guide is
completely retracted) must measure at
least:
– 45 cm above electric hobs
– 65 cm above gas hobs.
(Australia: 60 cm for electric and gas
hobs)
Only for U.K.: The distance of
65 cm between the cooker hood
and a gas hob is a minimum, which is
only permissible if the nominal heat
ratings given in the table below are not
exceeded:
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

When using the cooker hood at the
same time as another heating ap-
pliance which depends 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 recir-
culation mode (with active charcoal fil-
ter) then this is not a factor.
Disposal of an old machine /
appliance
Before discarding an old machine
unplug it. Render the plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the ap-
pliance to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for any damage caused
by non-observance of these instruc-
tions.

Operation
Pull out the deflector plate.
Drop down the front facia panel or
lightshield.
Set the slide switch for the fan to
position ”l“.
The cooker hood will operate at the set-
ting the power selector is set to.
Select a power setting strong
enough to clear the air:

Setting 1/2 =
for normal operation
Setting 3/Intensive setting (IS) =
for removing heavy cooking odours
Switch on the hob illumination if re-
quired.
After cooking
If, after finishing cooking, there are still
cooking vapours in the kitchen, it is rec-
ommended that the cooker hood be left
on for some minutes longer.
Then switch the cooker hood off by:
moving the slide switch for the fan
and the hob illumination to the ”0“ po-
sition.
or
push the deflector plate in.
