Read these O erating 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
can not 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. Consult a qualified electrician
if in doubt.
Installation work and repairs should
only be performed by a qualified

This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans or
aircraft. However, under certain
conditions it may be possible for an
installation in these applications. Please
contact the nearest Miele dealer or the
Technical Service Department with
specific requirements.
Before servicing or cleaning the
unit, switch power off at the service
panel and lock the service
disconnecting means to prevent power
from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means
can not be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a
tag, to the service panel.
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.
Be careful when preparing a
flambé beneath the hood.
Flames may be drawn up into the hood
by the suction or grease filters may
catch fire.
Never operate gas burners without
pots.
Do not leave cooking surfaces
unattended while in use.
Overheated food, oil and grease can
catch fire.
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 electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
In areas subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other pest, keep
the appliance and its surroundings
clean at all times. Any damage caused
by cockroaches or other pest will not
be covered under warranty.
Always turn on the hood when
using the cooktop to prevent
damage from condensation.

,WARNING - TO REDUCE
THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP
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 or when
cooking flaming foods.
Clean ventilating fans frequently.
Grease should not be allowed to
accumulate on the fan or filter.
Use 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
RANGE TOP 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 will result.
Use an extinguisher
ONLY if:
– You know you have a Class ABC
extinguisher, and you already know
how to operate it.
–The fire is small and contained in the
area where it started.
–The fire department is being called.
–You can fight the fire with your back
to an exit.

Installation
,WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire only
use metal ductwork.
When installing the hood, follow the
recommended minimum safety
distances between a Miele cooktop and
the hood:
–22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops,
–26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops,
–26" (65 cm) above an open grill.
If local building codes require a greater
safety distance, follow their
requirement.
For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain the safety distances
recommended by the appliance
manufacturer in their instructions.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.
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, vent
flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek
professional advice before connecting
an exhaust hood vent to an existing,
inactive chimney or vent 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 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 fla . This 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
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.
Before using the hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
active charcoal filters are in place,
see "Cleaning and care".
