IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS , WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE: Never leave surface units unattended at high settings. Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers may ignite. Heat oils slowly on low or medium settings. Always turn the hood “ON” when cooking at high heat or when cooking flaming foods. Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the fan or filter. Use proper pan size.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Installation , WARNING To reduce the risk of fire only use metal ductwork. When installing the hood, follow the recommended minimum safety distances between a Miele cooktop and the hood: – 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops, – 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops, – 26" (65 cm) above an open grill. If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.
Functional description The ventilation hood offers two modes of operation: . . . Air extraction: . . . Recirculation mode: The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside. Air is drawn through the grease filters and active charcoal filters. The filtered air is then recirculated back into the kitchen through a vent at the top of the hood’s chimney. The hood comes equipped with a non-return flap.

Guide to the hood a Joystick h Grease filter button The fan and light can be operated with the joystick. The indicator above the grease filter button lights when the grease filters need to be cleaned. b Overhead lighting c Grease filter d Charcoal filters additional accessory DA 362-75 two filters DA 362-110 four filters The button is also used: – to reset the grease filter timer after cleaning the grease filters (see "Cleaning and Care").
Operation Main power switch Joystick only for the DA 362-110 Press the main power switch to "l" to use the fan and lighting. If the appliance is not going to be used for a long period of time (e.g. while vacationing) it should be turned off ("0") at the main power switch. The next time it is turned on, the hood will operate at the level previously used. The joystick controls the fan power and overhead lighting.
Operation Turning on the fan Intensive setting ^ Press the joystick once to the right. The fan runs at power level “lI” and the second indicator of the fan power scale lights. Selecting the power level ^ Press the joystick to the right, to increase the fan speed. The corresponding indicator of the fan power scale lights. Level "1" to "3" (green indicators) are usually sufficient for normal cooking.
Operation Delayed Shut Down Overhead lighting If odors or smoke remain in the kitchen after cooking has been completed, the Delayed Shut Down feature can be selected to allow the hood to continue running for either 5 or 15 minutes. The overhead lighting can be turned on and off independently of the fan.
Operation Filter timers Checking the filter timers Grease filter timer To check the percentage of time set already used: A timer monitors the hours of operation. The indicator for the grease filter will light after 30 hours of fan operation. The grease filters must then be cleaned. ^ Press the joystick to the left to turn the fan on. After the grease filter has been cleaned and put back in place, the grease filter timer must be reset. ^ To do this press the grease filter button for about 3 seconds.
Operation Reprogramming the timers 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. – A time of 20 hours should also be programmed if the kitchen is only used occasionally. Otherwise grease which has accumulated over a long period of time will harden on the filters making cleaning more difficult.
Operation Reprogramming the charcoal filter timer The active charcoal filter can only be used in recirculation mode and can not be used to exhaust fumes. The charcoal filter timer is not preset. Before using the hood in recirculation mode, the charcoal filter timer must be programmed. ^ Press the joystick to the left to turn the fan off. ^ Use the joystick to select the desired time. Press it to the left for a shorter operating time, to the right for a longer operating time.
Cleaning and care Stainless steel 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 cleansers, scouring pads, steel wool or caustic (oven) cleaners on the hood. They will damage the surface. ^ All external surfces and controls can be cleaned with warm water and liquid dish soap applied with a soft sponge.
Cleaning and care Grease filters Cleaning the grease filters The reusable metal grease filters remove solid particles from the vented kitchen air (grease, dust, etc). ^ Clean the filters: The grease filters should be cleaned every 3-4 weeks or whenever the grease filter indicator lights. A dirty filter is a fire hazard. – by hand: use a scrub brush in warm water with a mild detergent. – in a dishwasher: place the filters vertically and diagonally in the lower basket.
Cleaning and care Inserting the grease filters When putting the grease filters back make sure that the locking clips are visible facing down towards the cooking surface. If the filters are 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 Active charcoal filters Before using: In recirculation mode four active charcoal filters must be used in addition to the grease filters. The charcoal filters are designed to absorb cooking odors. They are located in the canopy above the grease filters. ^ Program the charcoal filter timer, see "Operation/Reprogramming the charcoal filter timer". Active charcoal filters can be ordered from Technical Service.
Cleaning and care Changing the light bulb Before changing the light bulb, 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.

Installation The hood is designed to be installed within cabinetry and kitchen islands. The top half (motor and fan assembly) should be accessible after installation. If the motor and fan assembly are not accessible, assemble the ductwork and the electical connection before the installation. ^ Insert and align the hood from the bottom up in the cut out as seen in the illustration. ^ Secure the hood through the frame with 12 screws (3.5 x 16 mm).
Installation Air extraction mode Non-return flaps Exhaust connection ^ Connect the ductwork to the exhaust connection using appropriate measures for the type of ductwork being installed (hose clamp, duct tape, etc.). Note: A Y- adapter is supplied with the DA 362-110. It may be used to feed the exhaust from both connections to a common duct. ^ Place the non-return flaps into the exhaust connections at the top of the motor assembly so that the flaps open in the "up" direction.
Installation Recirculation mode Reducing collar If site conditions are not suitable for the hood to be used for air extraction, the appliance must be converted for recirculation. For recirculation mode the following accessories can be ordered from your Miele dealer or the Technical Service Department: For DA 362-75: – 1 conversion kit for recirculation mode – 2 active charcoal filters ^ The reducing collar must be used in recirculation mode.
Installation Recirculation connection ^ DA 362-75: In recirculation mode, one cut out must be made, where the ducting ends, for the installation of the recirculation vents, b. If installing the hood over an island or in a cabinet at ceiling height, a suitable cut-out has to be made in the front panel, d. ^ DA 362-110: In recirculation mode, 2 cut outs must be made, where the ducting ends, for the installation of the recirculation vents, b.
Installation Installing the joystick Joystick extension The joystick can be extended for an easier reach. ^ Insert the lower half of the desired joystick into the socket, loosely secure it in place with the included screw and spring washer. The screws have different lengths. Make sure the respective screw for the desired joystick is used. ^ Turn the printed part of the joystick so that the m-symbol faces front. ^ Attach the lower part of the joystick to the extension with a spring washer.

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. – The extraction ducting should be as short and straight as possible, and the number of sharp bends should be minimized. – Only use wide radius bends. Tight bends reduce the air flow of 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. Important: If the ductwork runs through rooms, ceilings, garages, etc. where temperature variations exist, it may need to be insulated to reduce condensation. In some cases, a condensate trap may also be required to collect and evaporate any condensate which may occur.
