~d) 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
appliance damage. If in doubt consult a
qualified electrician.

highly dangerous to the user and can
cause operation faults.
~g) Before discarding an old
appliance, disconnect it from the power
supply and remove the power cord to
prevent hazards.
Use
,WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A
COOKTOP GREASE FIRE:
~a) Never leave surface units
unattended at high settings. Boilovers
cause smoking and greasy spillovers
may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or
medium settings.
~b) Always turn the hood on when
cooking at a high heat.
~c) Clean the ventilation hood
frequently. Grease should not be
allowed to accumulate on the fan or
filter.
~d) Use the proper pan size. Always
use cookware appropriate for the size
of the cooking area.
~e) 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.

,WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE
EVENT OF A COOKTOP
GREASE FIRE, OBSERVE THE
FOLLOWING*:
~a) 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.
~b) NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING
PAN - You may be burned.
~c) DO NOT USE WATER, including
wet dishcloths or towels - a violent
steam explosion will result.
~d) Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:
1) You have a class ABC
extinguisher, and you know how to
operate it.
2) The fire is small and contained in
the area where it started.
3) The fire department is being
called.
4)You can fight the fire with your
back to an exit.
*Based on "Kitchen Firesafety Tips"
published by NAFTA
~Do not allow children to play with or
operate the appliance or its controls.
Supervise its use by the elderly or
infirm.
~Always turn on the hood when using
the cooktop to prevent damage from
condensation.
~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.
~Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the hood. Steam could penetrate
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.

Installation
,WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR
INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
~a) Installation work and electrical
wiring must be done by qualified
person(s) in accordance with all
applicable codes and standards,
including fire-rated construction.
~b) Sufficient air is needed for
combustion and exhausting of gases
through the flue (chimney of fuel
burning equipment to prevent back
drafting. Follow the heating equipment
manufacturer’s guideline and safety
standards such as those published by
the National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) and the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), and
the local code authorities.
~c) When cutting or drilling into the
wall or ceiling, do not damage electrical
wiring and other hidden utilities.
~d) Ducted hoods must always be
vented to the outdoors.
~e) Do not use this hood with any
solid-state speed control device.
~f) 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).
~g) Do not install this hood over
cooktops that burn solid fuel.
~h) Provided a larger distance is not
given by the manufacturer of the
cooktop, follow the minimum safety
distances between a cooktop and the
bottom of the hood given in the
"Appliance dimensions" section of this
manual.
If local building codes require a greater
safety distance, follow their
requirement.
If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.
~i) Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue,
or room ventilating ductwork.
~j) Seek professional advice before
connecting an exhaust hood vent to an
existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.
~k) Any fittings, sealant, or materials
used to install the ductwork must be
made of approved non-flammable
materials.
,WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
FIRE USE ONLY METAL
DUCTWORK.

(Ceiling fixing viewed from above)
1) Cut-out for ductwork and power cord
In recirculation mode, only the power
cord is necessary.
2) Position of recirculation vent
Exhaust connection 6" (150 mm)
(not needed for recirculation mode)
The exhaust connection in the ceiling plate
is not secured in the center. This makes
installation possible if the connection in the
ceiling is not centered above the cooktop.
A max. variance of 1 3/16" (30 mm) in any
direction is possible.

Distance between cooktop and hood (S)
Do not install this exhaust hood over cooktops burning solid fuel.
Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow
the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood:
Miele Cooktops Non-Miele
Cooktops

INJURY TO PERSONS,
OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:
All electrical work should be
performed by a qualified electrician
in strict accordance with national
regulations (for USA: ANSI-NFPA 70)
and local safety regulations.
Installation, repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be
dangerous.
Ensure that power to the appliance
is off while installation or repair work
is performed.
^Verify that the voltage, load and
circuit rating information found on the
data plate (located behind the
grease filter), match the household
electrical supply before installing the
hood.
If there is any question concerning the
electrical connection of this appliance
to your power supply, please consult a
licensed electrician or call Miele’s
Technical Service Department. See
back cover for contact information.
WARNING:
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
GROUNDED
Important
To increase security before the
machine is installed, it is
recommended to install a protective
switch (30 mA).
Important
The hood must be hard wired
accordingly:
Black/Red wire:....connect to L1 (live)
White wire: .....connect to N (neutral)
Green wire: . . connect to GND (ground)
Electrical connection

,WARNING
Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release
carbon monoxide that can be
harmful or fatal if inhaled.
To reduce the risk of fire and to
properly exhaust air, the exhaust
gases extracted by the hood
should be vented outside of the
building only.
Do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls or ceilings or
in attics, crawl spaces or garages.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal ductwork.
Please read and follow the
"IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Follow all local building
codes when installing the hood.
Exhaust ducting and connections
Use smooth or flexible pipework made
from approved non-flammable
materials for exhaust ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air
extraction and quietest noise levels,
consider the following:
– The diameter of the ductwork should
not be less than 6" (150 mm).
– If flat ducting is used, the cross
section must not be smaller than the
cross section of the ventilation
exhaust.
– The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible.
– Use ductwork with a wide radius.
– The exhaust duct must not be bent
or compressed.
– Make sure all connections are
secure.
– Where the ductwork is horizontal, it
must slope away from the hood at
least 1/8" per foot (1 cm per meter) to
prevent condensation dripping into
the appliance.
– If the exhaust is ducted through an
outside wall, a Telescopic Wall Vent
can be used.
Air extraction
24

– If the exhaust is ducted into an
inactive flue, the air must be expelled
parallel to the flow direction of the
flue.
Never connect an exhaust hood to
an active chimney, dryer vent, flue,
or room venting ductwork. Seek
professional advice before
connecting an exhaust hood vent to
an existing, inactive chimney or vent
flue.
Important
If the ductwork runs through rooms,
ceilings, garages, etc. where
temperature variations exist, it may
need to be insulated to reduce
condensation.
Condensate trap
optional accessory
In some cases, a condensate trap may
also be required to collect and
evaporate any condensate which may
occur. This optional accessory is
available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and 6"
(150 mm) in diameter.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the
exhaust outlet.
