Warning and Safety instructions
8
Correct use
 Never use an open flame beneath 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.
Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
 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.
 When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc.,
do not leave the pans unattended. Never leave an open grill
unattended when grilling. Overheated oil and fat can ignite and
could set the rangehood on fire.
 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.
 There is a risk of fire if the rangehood is not cleaned as described
in these operating instructions.
 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
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.
 Insufficient 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 must
be maintained, unless the cooktop manufacturer states that a
greater 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
Cleaning and care
 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.
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
11
Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
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 materials which, if
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Therefore, please do not dispose of
your old appliance with your household
waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre.
Ensure that your old appliance presents
no danger to children while being
stored for disposal.

Description of the functions
12
Recirculation mode
This rangehood operates solely in
recirculation mode.
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by four
charcoal filters. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through ventilation grilles in the top of
the rangehood.

Description of the functions
13
Con@ctivity 2.0 function
Automatic control
The rangehood has a communication
facility which enables the automatic
operation of the rangehood depending
on the operational state of a Miele
electric cooktop.
For communication to take place, the
cooktop must be fitted with an
appropriate Con@ctivity 2.0 dongle .
Please consult the installation
instructions for the Con@ctivity 2.0
dongle to see if connection to your
cooktop is possible.
In order to be able to use the
Con@ctivity 2.0 function, radio contact
between the cooktop and the
rangehood must be established (see
"Activating Con@ctivity 2.0").
The cooktop transmits information
about its operational status via a radio
signal to the rangehood.
– When the cooktop is switched on,
the cooktop lighting on the
rangehood comes on independently
and, then after a short time, the fan
also comes on.
– During cooking the rangehood
automatically sets the power level
according to the number of cooking
zones in operation and their power
levels.
– After switching the cooktop off, the
fan and the cooktop lighting will
switch off automatically after a
specified period of time.
See "Operation" for detailed
information about this function.

Operation (automatic mode)
16
If Con@ctivity 2.0 is activated, the
rangehood always operates in
automatic mode (see "Activating
Con@ctivity 2.0").
To operate the rangehood manually,
see "Cooking without Con@ctivity 2.0
(manual mode)".
Cooking with Con@ctivity 2.0
(automatic mode)
Switch a cooking zone on at the
power setting you want.
The rangehood lighting will come on.
After a few seconds the fan will come
on, first at power setting 2, then it will
switch immediately to power setting 1.
The rangehood selects the power
setting automatically during cooking.
This is determined by the total output of
the cooktop, i.e. the number of cooking
zones in operation and the power
settings selected.
If you select a higher power setting or
are using several cooking zones, the
rangehood will switch to a higher
power setting.
When you reduce the power setting
or the number of cooking zones on
the cooktop, the rangehood power
setting will also be reduced.
Examples for power levels 1to 4
Reaction time
The rangehood reacts with a slight
delay because altering the power
setting on the cooktop does not
immediately result in a reduction or
increase in cooking vapours.
Because the cooktop transmits the
information to the rangehood at
intervals, this can also cause delays.
The reaction can vary from a few
seconds to a few minutes.

Operation (automatic mode)
17
Cooking process
If, for example, you switch on a
cooking zone at the highest power
setting to heat a pan for frying and
reduce the power level after approx.
60 to 90 seconds*, a cooking process
is recognised (*60 seconds to 5
minutes for a HiLight cooktop).
The rangehood switches itself on and
when the cooktop power level has been
reduced, the rangehood switches to
power setting 3 and remains at that
level for approx. 5 minutes.
After that the rangehood power setting
is determined automatically by the
Con@ctivity function.
You can select another power setting
manually before then.
Switching off
Switch off all cooking zones.
The rangehood fan will reduce its
power level over the next few minutes
and will eventually switch itself off.
This helps to neutralise any lingering
vapours and odours in the air.
– From the Intensive setting IS the fan
switches immediately to setting 3.
– If the fan is operating at setting 3, it
will switch to setting 2 after approx. 1
minute.
– From setting 2, the fan switches to
setting 1 after 2 minutes.
– After 2 minutes at setting 1, the fan
switches itself off.
– After another 30 seconds, the lighting
switches off.
The cooking process is then finished.

Operation (automatic mode)
