Read these Operating Instructions carefully before installing or
using the Ventilation System.
This appliance is intended for
residential use only. Use the
appliance only for its intended
purpose. The manufacturer cannot
be held responsible for damages
caused by improper use of the
hood.
This appliance complies with current
safety requirements. Improper use of
the appliance can lead to personal
injury and material damage.
READ AND SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
,CAUTION
For General Ventilating Use Only.
Do Not Use To Exhaust Hazardous
Or Explosive Materials And Vapors.
This appliance is designed to vent
cooking smoke and odors only.
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this
appliance, continuity must exist
between the appliance and an effective
grounding system. It is imperative that
this basic safety requirement be met. If
there is any doubt, have the electrical
system of the house checked by a
qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or
inadequacy, of an effective grounding
system.
Before connecting the appliance to
the power supply make sure that
the voltage and frequency listed on the
data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. This data
must correspond to prevent machine
damage. If in doubt consult a qualified
electrician.
Installation work and repairs should
only be performed by a qualified
technician in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous and the
manufacturer will not be held

This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
installation in these applications. Please
contact the nearest Miele dealer or the
Technical Service Department with
specific requirements.
Before servicing or cleaning the
unit, disconnect the hood from the
power supply by either removing the
fuse, unplugging it, or manually
"tripping" the circuit breaker.
Before discarding an old
appliance, unplug it from the
power supply and remove the power
cord and any doors to prevent hazards.
Use
Do not allow children to play with
or operate the appliance or its
controls. Supervise its use by the
elderly or infirm.
The halogen lamps become hot
during use. Keep children away.
Danger of burns.
Do not flambé or grill with an open
flame beneath the hood.
Flames could be drawn up into the
hood by the suction and the grease
filters may catch fire.
Never operate gas burners without
cookware. Turn the burner off when
not in use. Adjust the burner so that the
flames do not extend beneath the
cookware. Do not overheat the
cookware, e.g. when using a wok. The
hood can be damaged due to
excessive heat from the burners and
the cookware.
Do not use the hood without the
grease filters in place.
Clean the grease filters regularly.
Dirty filters are a fire hazard.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the hood. Steam could
penetrate the electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
Always turn on the hood when
using the cooktop to prevent
damage from condensation.

,WARNING - TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF A COOKTOP
GREASE FIRE:
Never leave surface units
unattended at high settings.
Boilovers cause smoking and greasy
spillovers may ignite. Heat oils slowly
on low or medium settings.
Always turn the hood on when
cooking at high heat.
Clean ventilation fans frequently.
Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on the fan or filter.
Use the proper pan size. Always
use cookware appropriate for the
size of the surface element.
,WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY
TO PERSONS IN THE EVENT OF A
COOKTOP GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE
THE FOLLOWING:
SMOTHER FLAMES with a close
fitting lid, cookie sheet, or metal
tray, then turn off the burner.
BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS.
If the flames do not go out immediately,
EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE
DEPARTMENT.
NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING
PAN - You may be burned.
DO NOT USE WATER, including
wet dishcloths or towels - a violent
steam explosion may result.
Use a fire extinguisher
ONLY if:
– You have a Class ABC extinguisher,
and know how to operate it.
– The fire is small and contained in the
area where it started.
–The fire department has been called.
–You can fight the fire with your back
to an exit.

Installation
,WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire only
use metal ductwork.
Provided a larger distance is not
given by the manufacturer of the
cooktop, follow the recommended
minimum safety distances between a
cooktop and the bottom of the hood:
- 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.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.
When installing a custom front panel,
regard the cooktop manufacturer’s
advice on the use of easily flammable
material above the cooktop.
Be careful not to damage hidden
electrical wiring or plumbing when
cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect the appliance to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance, (e.g.
danger of overheating).
Do not install this hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.
Any fittings, sealant, or materials
used to install the ductwork must
be made of approved non-flammable
materials.
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, flue,
or room ventilating ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connecting
an exhaust hood vent to an existing,
inactive chimney or flue.
Ducted fans must always be
vented outdoors.
Make sure that the airflow in the
room is sufficient for combustion
and exhausting of all non-electric
heating appliances (water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise
backdrafts may occur. Follow the
heating manufacturer’s guidelines and
safety standards or those published by
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), or the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
If in doubt, consult an experienced
professional.

The ventilation hood offers two modes
of operation:
Air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a
non-return flap. The flap automatically
closes when the hood is turned off so
that no exchange of outside air and
room air can occur.
When the hood is turned on, the air
pressure of the exhaust fan
automatically opens the flap blowing
the inside air and cooking odors
outside.
Recirculation mode
(recirculation installation kit available as
an optional accessory)
Air is drawn through the grease filters
and an active charcoal filter. The
filtered air is then recirculated back into
the kitchen through a vent at the top of
the hood’s chimney.
Active charcoal filters may be
purchased from your Miele dealer or
Miele.
Before using the hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
active charcoal filter is in place, see
"Cleaning and care".

Turning the fan on
^Pull the deflector out.
The hood will operate at power level "2".
The On/Off indicator and the second
"-/+" indicator will light.
Selecting the power level
Depending on how much the air needs
to be filtered, there are four power
levels available.
^Use the "-/+" buttons to select the
power level required.
The indicators show which power level
has been chosen.
For normal cooking a low to medium
level is usually sufficient.
For frying or cooking food with a strong
aroma use the highest level.
Pull the deflector all the way out to
ensure an optimal intake of cooking
odors.
Fan performance
The maximum air flow capacity is
625 cfm. Factors such as narrow duct
diameter and bends will affect this
value.
Level 1 operates at 40% capacity
Level 2 operates at 60% capacity
Level 3 operates at 80% capacity
Level 4 operates at 100% capacity
There will also be a slight decrease in
airflow for hoods operated in
recirculation mode due to the active
charcoal filter.
Turning the fan off
^Push the deflector back in.
The next time the deflector is pulled
out, the hood will operate on power
level "2".
or
^Press the On/Off button to turn the
fan off.
The indicators go out.
