Energy-saving tips This hood operates in a very efficient and energy-saving manner. The following will help you to save even more energy when using it: – Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the kitchen when cooking. If there is insufficient air flow during vented mode, the hood cannot operate efficiently, causing increased operating noise levels. – Always cook with the lowest possible setting.
Cleaning and care Stainless steel housing Special instructions for stainless steel surfaces General information Stainless steel surfaces can also be cleaned using a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. The surfaces and control buttons are susceptible to scratching and chipping. Observe the following cleaning instructions. Clean all surfaces and control buttons using warm water and liquid dish soap. Apply with a sponge cloth. After cleaning, dry the surfaces with a soft cloth.
Cleaning and care Grease filter Removing the grease filters The reusable metal grease filter in the appliance removes solid particles from the kitchen vapors (grease, dust, etc.) preventing soiling of the hood. A dirty filter is a fire hazard! Cleaning intervals Over longer periods of time, fat buildup on the grease filter hardens and makes cleaning more difficult. Therefore, we recommend cleaning the grease filters once every 3-4 weeks.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the grease filter by hand Clean the filters with a soft nylon brush in a mild solution of hot water and dish soap. Do not use undiluted dish soap. Unsuitable cleaning agents Unsuitable cleaners can cause damage to the filter surfaces if used regularly.
Cleaning and care Replace the grease filter, making sure that the locking clip is facing outward. OdorFree Charcoal Filter Recirculation ventilation hoods must be fitted with a charcoal filter in addition to the grease filter. This is designed to absorb cooking odors. It is fitted in the top of the ventilation hood. Charcoal filters are available from your Miele dealer or from Miele. See "Technical data" for the type and reference number.
Cleaning and care When to change the OdorFree Charcoal Filter Disposing of the OdorFree Charcoal Filter Always replace the OdorFree Charcoal Filter whenever it no longer absorbs kitchen odors effectively. Replace the filter at least once every 6 months. Used OdorFree Charcoal Filters can be disposed of with normal household waste. The OdorFree Charcoal Filter saturation counter will light up to remind you to change the charcoal filter regularly.
Installation Before installation Before installing the appliance, read all of the information contained in this chapter and also in the "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" section.

Installation d Ventilation outlet for recirculation mode. A gap of at least 11 11/16" (300 mm) must be maintained between the top of the ventilation hood and the ceiling or any furniture above it. Vent collar 6" (150 mm), with adapter 5" (125 mm). Please observe installation positions for the socket and for the ducting outlet shown on the relevant drawings when using the DADC 6000 canopy.
Installation Installation recommendations – When selecting an installation height, always take the user height into consideration. Users should have ample space to work comfortably on the cooktop and reach the ventilation hood controls with ease. Drilling diagram for wall mounting When drilling, please follow the directions contained on the accompanying installation sheet. – Please note that the greater the distance from the cooktop, the less effective the hood is at drawing in the cooking vapors.
Installation Plywood backing The majority of the weight of the installed ventilation system will be supported by the lower retaining plate. It must be firmly attached to the stud framing behind the drywall. If studs are not available in the required locations, a plywood backing (min. ½" (13 mm) thick) spanning at least two studs must be installed. Failure to adequately support the weight as stated may result in the ventilation system falling off the wall, causing personal injury and property damage.
Air venting 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.
Air venting Condensate trap Reducing Collar (optional accessory) In addition to insulating the exhaust duct, we recommend installing a condensate trap to collect and evaporate any condensate which might accumulate. Condensate traps are available for exhaust ducts with a diameter of 5" (125 mm) or 6" (150 mm). A condensate trap can only be fitted in extraction ducting which is directed upwards out of the ventilation hood.
Electrical connection WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR 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.
