Guide to the appliance Chimney extension Chimney Canopy Overhead lighting Main power switch Grease filter Grease filter button The indicator below the grease filter button lights when the grease filters need to be cleaned. This button is also used: – to reset the grease filter timer after cleaning the grease filters (see "Cleaning and Care"). – to show how long the grease filter has been in use (see "Operation / Grease filter timer").
Functional description The ventilation hood works by air extraction. The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside. The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap. This flap automatically closes when the hood is turned off so that no exchange of outside air and room air can occur. When the hood is turned on, the air pressure of the exhaust fan automatically opens the flap blowing the inside air and cooking odors outside.
Operation Main power switch Intensive setting Level "4" (yellow indicator) should be used for a short period when frying or cooking food with a strong aroma. Press the main power switch to "I". The fan and the lighting can now be operated. If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time (e.g. while vacationing) turn the appliance off by pressing the main power switch to "0". Fan performance The maximum air flow capacity is 625 cfm.
Operation Turning off the fan Turning the lighting on / off The overhead lighting can be turned on and off independently of the fan. ^ Press the On/Off button to turn the fan off. The indicator goes out. ^ Press the light button to turn on the lighting. Automatic Safety Shut Off The light button indicator illuminates. The fan will be turned off automatically 10 hours after the last button was activated. The lighting however, will remain on. ^ Press the light button again to turn off the lighting.
Operation Grease filter timer Checking the grease filter timer A timer monitors the hours of fan operation. The indicator for the grease filter will light after 30 hours of operation. The grease filters must then be cleaned. To check the percentage of time already used: After the grease filters have been cleaned and put in place, the grease filter timer must be reset. ^ To do this, press the grease filter button for about 3 seconds. The indicator will go out.
Operation Reprogramming the grease filter timer The grease filter timer is preset to 30 hours. This time can be lengthened or shortened to 20, 30, 40 or 50 hours. – A time of 20 hours should be programmed in kitchens with frequent pan or deep frying. The indicator for the grease filter and one of the pm indicators will flash. The lit pm indicator shows the programmed time: – A time of 20 hours should also be programmed if the kitchen is only used occasionally.
Cleaning and Care Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it from the outlet or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker. Cleaning the casing Warning: Never use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface. ^ All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
Cleaning and Care Grease filters The reusable metal grease filters remove solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc). The grease filters should be cleaned every 3-4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights. A dirty filter is a fire hazard. ^ To remove the grease filters press the locking clips in towards the middle of the filter. Holding carefully, lower and remove the filter. ^ Clean the filters - by hand: use a scrub brush in warm water with a mild detergent.
Cleaning and Care When putting the grease filters back make sure that the locking clips are visible facing down towards the cooking surface. If a filter is incorrectly installed, insert a small screwdriver into the slit along its edge to disengage it from the casing. ^ After returning the grease filters, press the grease filter button for 3 seconds to reset the timer. The indicator light will go out.
Cleaning and Care Changing the light bulb Before changing the light bulbs, disconnect the hood from the power supply by either removing the fuse, unplugging it, or manually "tripping" the circuit breaker. When in use halogen bulbs become extremely hot, and they can burn your hands. Do not attempt to change the bulbs until they have had sufficient time to cool down. Do not touch the bulb surface. Fingerprints or body oils deposited on the bulb will decrease the life of the bulb.

Appliance dimensions 26
Appliance dimensions Do not install this exhaust hood over cooktops burning solid fuel. When installing the hood, make sure that the following minimum distance (S) between the top of a Miele cooking surface and the bottom of the hood is: - 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops - 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops - 26" (65 cm) above an open grill For non-Miele cooking appliances maintain the safety distances recommended by the cooktop manufacturer in their installation and operating instructions.
Installation Retaining plates The ventilation system will be mounted to the wall through the use of retaining plates. Plate A is installed first, followed by plate B. Plate C should ony be used if the distance between plate A and plate B is greater than 14 3/8 " (365 mm). 28 Attaching the retaining plates to the wall ^ Before fitting the retaining plate draw a vertical line centrally above the cooktop on the rear wall. ^ Mark measurement S from the cooktop surface upwards (see "Appliance dimensions").
Installation Retaining plate A ^ Drill two 1/8" (3 mm) holes, one at S + 3" (75 mm) and one at S + 15 3/4" (400 mm) on the center line (see "Appliance dimensions"). ^ Screw four 5 x 40 mm screws into the upper and lower set of holes to secure retaing plate A. ^ Lightly secure retaining plate A into position using 5 x 40 mm screws through the two holes and use the notches to align with the center line. ^ Drill 6 more 1/8" (3 mm) holes through the now fitted retaining plate.
Installation Retaining plate B ^ Hold retaining plate B to the wall and push up until it is directly below the ceiling. Use the notches and the center line to align it horizontally. Mark the 2 drill holes on the wall. ^ Drill two 1/8" (3 mm) holes into the wall. ^ Secure the retaining plate with two 5 x 40 mm screws. Retaining plate C Retaining plate C should only be used if dimension Y is greater than 14 3/8" (365 mm). It provides additional stability for the chimney extension.
Installation Attaching the canopy Adjusting the canopy If the canopy is not perpendicular to the wall it can be adjusted. ^ Hang the canopy on the angled brackets on retaining plate A. ^ Secure the canopy with two screws 5 x 60 mm. ^ Loosen the two securing screws, a. ^ Slightly loosen the adjusting screws, b. ^ Adjust the canopy so that it is level and perpendicular to the wall. ^ Tighten the adjusting screws, b and the securing screws, a.
Installation Inserting the non-return flap Attaching the motor assembly ^ If a non-return flap is not present in the venting system, the non-return flap supplied must be fitted into the exhaust connection on the motor. The flaps must open upwards. ^ First loosely screw the two locking nuts onto the threaded bolts on retaining plate A. Leave a gap of 1/8" (3 mm) for hanging the motor on. ^ The hood is designed for 6" (150 mm) exhaust ducting.
Installation Electrical connection Exhaust connection Before connecting the appliance read the "Warning and Safety Instructions" and the "Electrical data" sections. ^ Conect the ductwork to the exhaust connection using whatever means are appropriate for the type of ductwork being installed (hose clamp, duct tape, etc.). ^ Direct the duct through the back wall or ceiling. ^ Plug the connectors on the canopy into the corresponding receptacles left and right of the motor assembly.
Installation Attaching the chimney extension The use of a chimney extension, allows the hood to be installed at various distances from the ceiling. ^ Remove the protective foil from the chimney extension. ^ Secure the chimney extension to the upper retaining plate with two 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws. ^ Bend the top hanging tabs 45° inwards. This will make installing the chimney extension easier. Be careful of sharp edges. ^ Fold the protective shield at the top. ^ Remove the adhesive backing from the shield.
Installation Attaching the chimney ^ Secure the chimney to retaning plate A on both sides with two 3.9 x 7.5 mm screws. ^ Remove the protective foil from the canopy. ^ Remove the protective foil from the chimney. If the chimney is not tall enough an optional chimney extension can be ordered. See "Appliance dimensions". ^ Pull the chimney apart slightly and slide it over the chimney extension. Do this carefully to prevent scratching the two pieces.
Air extraction Danger of toxic fumes. Gas cooking appliances release carbon monoxide that can be harmful or fatal if inhaled. The exhaust gases extracted by the hood should be vented outside of the building only. Do not terminate the exhaust ducts in attics, garages, crawlspaces, etc. Please read and follow the "Warning and Safety Instructions" to reduce the risk of personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.
Air extraction Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue. Ductwork with a diameter of less than 6" (150 mm) should only be used when absolutely necessary. As duct diameter decreases, the hood’s performance and sound levels will be affected. Important: If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc.
