Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be
recycled.
Packaging e.g. cling film, polystyrene
and plastic wrappings must be kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation!
Dispose of or recycle all packaging
materials safely as soon as possible.
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Please do not therefore dispose of your
old appliance with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre and ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
It should be unplugged or disconnected
from the mains electricity supply by a
competent person. If connected by a
plug, the plug must be rendered
useless and the cable cut off directly
behind the appliance to prevent
misuse. See the "Warning and Safety"
section of this booklet for further details.
Caring for the environment

This appliance complies with all
relevant local and national safety
requirements. Inappropriate use
can, however, lead to personal injury
and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and
damage to the appliance, please
read these instructions carefully
before using it for the first time. They
contain important information on the
safety, installation, use and
maintenance of the appliance.
Keep these operating instructions in
a safe place and ensure that all
users are familiar with the contents.

Correct usage
This appliance is intended for
domestic use only.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for damage caused by improper or
incorrect use of the appliance.
Technical safety
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply, make sure that
the voltage and frequency details given
on the data plate correspond with the
on-site electricity supply; otherwise the
appliance could get 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 local and
national safety regulations. It is most
important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly
tested, and where there is in 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).
Installation, maintenance and
repair work may only be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with national and
local safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for unauthorised
work.
Ensure that current is not supplied to
the appliance until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
This equipment may only be used
in mobile installations such as
ships, caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk
assessment of the installation has been
carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
Warning and Safety instructions
4

The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
–it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug withdrawn,
–the fuse from the fused spur
connection unit is withdrawn, or
–the mains fuse is withdrawn.
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).
For appliances with an external
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.
In countries where there are 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 guarantee.
Use
Never use an open flame beneath
the cooker hood. To avoid the
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill
over an open flame under the cooker
hood. 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. Never
leave an open grill unattended when
grilling. Overheated oil and fat can
ignite and could set the cooker hood on
fire.
Do not use the cooker hood without
the grease filter in place. This way
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt
getting into the appliance and
hindering its smooth operation.
Warning and Safety instructions
5

The filter should be regularly
cleaned or changed as
appropriate. A saturated filter is a fire
hazard. See "Cleaning and care".
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean this appliance. Pressurised
steam could reach the electrical
components and cause a short circuit.
Safety with children
The appliance is only intended for
use by adults who have read these
instructions. Keep children well away
from the appliance at all times and
supervise them when you are using it.
Older children may use the
appliance only when its operation
has been clearly explained to them and
they are able to use it safely,
recognising the dangers of misuse.
Please be aware that on
appliances with halogen lighting,
the lamps will get very hot during use
and remain hot for some time after
switching off. To safeguard against
burning, keep children well away from
the lamps at all times.
Packaging (e.g. cling film,
polystyrene) and plastic wrappings
must be kept out of the reach of babies
and young children. Danger of
suffocation. Dispose of or recycle all
packaging safely as soon as possible.
Warning and Safety instructions

Installation
Follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for your cooking
appliance concerning the use of a
cooker hood over the particular
appliance.
Safety regulations prohibit the
fitting of a cooker hood over solid
fuel stoves.
All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable material.
These can be obtained from the Miele
Spare Parts department 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.
Safety distance between cooking
appliance and cooker hood
The minimum safety distances
between the top of a cooker or hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood are
as follows, unless a greater distance is
specified by the manufacturer of your
cooking appliance:
- 450 mm above electric hobs and
cookers,
- 650 mm above gas hobs and cookers,
- 650 mm above an open grill or deep
fat fryer.
If more than one appliance is fitted
beneath the cooker hood, and they
have different minimum safety
distances to the cooker hood, select
the greater distance.
Follow the cooker or hob
manufacturer’s instructions on the use
of flammable materials over the
cooker/hob when installing a wood or
laminate lightshield onto the cooker
hood.
Warning and Safety instructions

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 cooker hood 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 hobs, cookers 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 such as carbon
monoxide could be drawn out of the
chimney or extraction ducting back
into the room, with potentially fatal
consequences.
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 or, for gas, a
"Corgi" installer, must be sought.
Warning and Safety instructions
8

One of the following technical
measures may be necessary to ensure
safe operation.
–If the only way of ensuring adequate
ventilation is via an open window, a
window contact switch should be
fitted to ensure that the cooker hood
can only operate when the window is
opened sufficiently. A window
contact switch kit is available from
good builders’ merchants.
Take care when ventilating the room
through an open window that
ventilation is not impaired by a
closed blind or curtain.
– The cooker hood can be set up to
automatically switch on an air intake
fan or open a motorised inlet flap
when it is switched on.
– The cooker hood can be set up to
automatically switch off a heating
appliance which also depends on
the air from the room when it is
switched on.
The Miele DSM 400 offers the
possibility of combining other
components with the cooker hood (see
"Operation with a DSM 400 control
module").
It is available to purchase as an
optional extra.
If in any doubt, the advice of a
competent builder or, for gas, a
"Corgi" installer, must be sought.
If the hood is being operated in
recirculation mode, the above
restrictions do not apply.
Disposal of your old appliance
Before discarding an old
appliance, switch off and
disconnect it from the power supply.
Cut off and render any plug useless.
Cut off the cable directly behind the
appliance to prevent misuse.
This should be done by a competent
person.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
