Technical safety
 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs (including
removal of any cover) can cause considerable danger for the user.
Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician.
 A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs
of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified
electrician.
 Reliable and safe operation of this rangehood can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
 The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the rangehood must match the mains electricity supply in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the rangehood.
Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains
electricity. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
 Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire
hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

Warning and Safety instructions
7
 For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
 This rangehood must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
 Tampering with electrical connections or components and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in the
installation sheet and in the “Cleaning and care” section of this
booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the
housing be opened.
 The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is

Using at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air
from the room
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the rangehood in the same
room or the same area of the house as another heating appliance
that depends on the air from the room.
Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct
exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They
include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and heaters,
continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooktops and ovens.
The rangehood draws in air from the kitchen and from
neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of
operation:
- extraction mode,
- extraction mode with an external motor,
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the
room.
If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating
appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction
ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences.
Risk of death!

Warning and Safety instructions
9
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by
a heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when
the rangehood and the heater are both operated simultaneously,
an underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot
be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The
diameter of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. 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 qualified gas fitter should be sought.
If the rangehood is being operated in recirculation mode, whereby
the air is redirected into the room in which it is installed, the above
restrictions do not apply.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
Correct use
 Open flames are a fire hazard!
Never use an open flame under the rangehood. To avoid the danger
of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on,
the rangehood could draw flames into the filter. Kitchen grease
deposits could ignite.
 The rangehood can become damaged when exposed to excessive
heat.
- When using the rangehood over a gas cooktop, ensure that any
burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking
zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time.
- Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
- Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the
pan.
- Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).
 Always switch the rangehood on when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in the rangehood, which could
cause corrosion.
 Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
rangehood.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc., do
not leave the pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an open grill
unattended when grilling.

Warning and Safety instructions
11
 Do not use the rangehood without the filters in place. This way
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance
and hindering its smooth operation.
 The rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising
from the cooktop.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the rangehood
has cooled down.
Correct installation
 Refer to the cooktop manufacturer's instructions as to whether a
rangehood may be operated above the cooktop.
 Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a rangehood over solid
fuel stoves.
 An insufficient safety distance between the cooktop and the
rangehood can result in damage to the rangehood.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooktop and
the bottom of the rangehood given in the “Installation” section of this
booklet must be observed, unless the cooktop manufacturer states
that a greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the rangehood,
and they have different minimum safety distances to the rangehood,
select the greater distance.
 The distances given in “Installation” must be observed when
fitting the rangehood.
 Metal parts can have sharp edges which may cause injury.
Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut.
 All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
material and comply with all relevant national and local building
regulations.

Warning and Safety instructions
12
 The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning
gas or other fuels. 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.
Cleaning and care
 There is a risk of fire if cleaning is not carried out as described in
these operating instructions.
 Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
 In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine 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 machine warranty.
 Important information on handling the remote control battery:
- Do not short circuit or recharge the battery, or throw it into a fire.
Danger of explosion!
- Do not throw old batteries away with your general household
waste. Please dispose of them in a designated battery collection
and recycling system.
Accessories
 Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be
invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Caring for the environment
13
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packaging
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for
disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also reduces
the amount of waste in landfill sites.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags
etc. are disposed of safely and kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. 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 for electrical and electronic
appliances. You are also responsible for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance prior to
disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children
while being stored prior to disposal.
Disposing of old batteries and
rechargeable batteries
Some electrical and electronic
appliances contain batteries and
rechargeable batteries which, when
depleted, must not be thrown away with
your household waste. You should
remove any removable batteries or
rechargeable batteries and dispose of
them immediately in a suitable recycling
box for batteries.
Batteries and rechargeable
batteries contain substances which
can be harmful to human health and
the environment and should be kept
out of the reach of children. Even flat
batteries can still be dangerous. If
you suspect a child has swallowed a
battery, seek medical advice
immediately.
Further instructions regarding disposal
are given on batteries and rechargeable
batteries. A crossed out bin means that
the battery or rechargeable battery
must on no account be disposed of
with your household waste. A crossed
out bin, which also has one or several
chemical symbols below it, indicates
that the battery or rechargeable battery
contains lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and/
or mercury (Hg).
3E&G+J
Old batteries and rechargeable batteries
contain important raw materials which
can be recycled. Disposing of batteries
and rechargeable batteries separately
makes them easier to handle and
recycle.

Depending on the model of the
rangehood, the following options are
available:
Air extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
Non-return flap
A non-return flap fitted in the exhaust
air system ensures that when the
rangehood is not in operation the duct
is closed and no exchange of room air
and outside air can take place.
The flap is closed when the rangehood
is switched off.
When the rangehood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
If the on-site exhaust air system does
not have a non-return flap, one is
supplied with the rangehood. It must be
fitted in the exhaust socket on the
motor unit.
Recirculation mode
(available as an optional extra with a
conversion kit and charcoal filter: see
