Warning and Safety Instructions
Read these Operating Instructions carefully before installing or
using the Ventilation System.
This appliance is intended for
residential use only. Use the ap-
pliance only for its intended pur-
pose. The manufacturer cannot be
held responsible for damages
caused by improper use of the
hood.
Read all the instructions before in-
stalling or using for the first time.
SAVE HESE INS RUC IONS AND
REVIEW HEM PERIODICALLY
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 \ 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 impera-
tive 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 manufac-
turer cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or inade-
quacy of, an effective grounding system.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electrical supply using an
extension cord. Extension cords do not
meet the safety requirements of this ap-
pliance.
Do not turn on the hood until it has
been properly installed.
Repairs on electric appliances
should only be performed by quali-
fied technician. Do not repair or re-
place any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in this ma-
nual.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by either removing
the fuse or unplugging the unit or ma-
nually “tripping” the circuit breaker.
When installing the hood, make
sure that the minimum safety
distances between cooktops and the
hood are maintained.
– For electric cooktops: 18" (45 cm)
– For gas cooktops: 26" (65 cm)
– For a Miele open grill: 26" (65 cm)
Do not install this exhaust hood
over cooktops burning solid fuel.
Warning and Safety Instructions

WARNING
o reduce the risk of fire, use only
metal ductwork.
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, in-
active chimney or vent flue.
Never operate gas burners without
pots. Heat generated by pro-
longed operation of gas burners with-
out pots could damage the hood.
Do not flambébeneath the exhaust
hood. Flames could be drawn up
into the hood by the suction or the
grease filters may ignite.
Do not allow children to play with
the hood or its controls.
Do not leave cooking surfaces un-
attended while in use. Overheated
food can ignite.
Do not use the exhaust hood with-
out 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. The steam could
penetrate to electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
WARNING
O REDUCE HE RISK OF A RANGE
OP GREASE FIRE:
Keep the fan, filters and grease
laden surfaces clean.
Always turn hood "ON" when cook-
ing at high heat.
Use high range settings on range
only when necessary. Heat oil
slowly on low to medium setting.
Don’t leave range unattended
when cooking.
Always use cookware and utensils
appropriate for the type and
amount of food being prepared.

WARNING
O REDUCE HE RISK OF INJURY
O PERSONS IN HE EVEN OF A
RANGE OP GREASE FIRE,
OBSERVE HE FOLLLOWING:
Smother flames with a close fit-
ting 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 occur.
Use an extinguisher
only if:
–You know you have a Class ABC ex-
tinguisher, 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.
WARNING
O REDUCE HE RISK OF FIRE,
ELEC RIC SHOCK, OR INJURY O
PERSONS,
OBSERVE HE FOLLOWING:
Use this unit only in the manner in-
tended by the manufacturer. If you
have questions, contact the manufacturer.
Before servicing or cleaning the
unit, turn power off at circuit
breaker and lock the service discon-
necting means to prevent power from
being turned on accidentally. When the
service disconnecting means cannot
be locked, securely fasten a prominent
warning device, such as a tag, to the
service panel.
Installation and electrical work
must be performed by qualified
technicians in accordance with all ap-
plicable codes and standards.
Make sure that the airflow in the
room is sufficient for combustion
and exhausting of all non-electric heat-
ing appliances (water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise
back drafts may occur. Follow the heat-
ing maunfacturer’s guidelines and
safety standards or those published by
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA), or the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Condi-
tioning Engineers (ASHRAE).
If in doubt, consult an experienced pro-
fessional.
Be careful not to damage hidden
electrical wiring or plumbing when
cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.
Ducted fans must always be
vented outdoors.
Warning and Safety Instructions
6

When connecting the hood to an ex-
ternal vent, make sure that there is
adequate ventilation in the room
where the exhaust hood is to be
used.
When using the hood in the same area
as other appliances requiring room air
(e.g. non-electric water heaters, gas
cooktops, gas ovens, etc.) make cer-
tain that the air extracted by the hood
does not hinder their operation. These
appliances need air for combustion.
Adequate ventilation can be main-
tained by installing air vents in windows
or walls or by ensuring that the hood
can only be turned on when the other
appliances are off, or vice versa.
To prevent combustion gases being
drawn back into the room by the ex-
haust hood, the underpressure in the
room must be no greater than 0.0006 psi
(0.04 mbar) when the hood and these
appliances are running simultaneously.
If there are any doubts as to whether
there is adequate ventilation, consult
an experienced professional.
Disposal of old appliances
Before discarding an old appliance,
remove its power cord and any doors
to prevent it from becoming a hazard.
SAVE HESE INS RUC IONS AND
REVIEW HEM PERIODICALLY
Throughout the manual, important
safety items will be highlighted in
boxes and should be read in con-
junction with these “Warning and

Description of the functions
The hood works
. . . by air extraction:
The air is drawn in, cleaned by an exter-
nal filter and then passed through an in-
ternal filter before being directed out-
side.
The hood has a non-return flap , (see
"Installation").
This flap is closed when the hood is
off. No exchange of room air and out-
side air can take place. When the
hood is turned on the non-return flap
opens for the cooking odors to be
blown outside.
. . . by air recirculaton:
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the external filter, then by the internal fil-
ter before passing through an active
charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through a vent in the top of the hood.
Before using the hood for the first
time in recirculation mode, make
sure that the active charcoal filter is
in place. See Section on "Cleaning
and care".
