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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – 4) You can fight the fire with your back to an exit. *Based on “Kitchen Fire Safety Tips” published by NFPA. The ventilation hood may become damaged if exposed to excessive heat from a gas cooktop. - When using the ventilation hood over a gas cooktop, ensure that any burners in use are always covered by cookware. Turn burners off when removing the cookware, even if doing so for just a short time. - Select cookware that is suitable for the size of the burner.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Proper 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.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The information provided in “Installation” must be observed when installing the ventilation hood. Components can have sharp edges which may cause injury. Wear gloves to protect your hands. When installing the exhaust duct, only use pipes or tubes made of non-flammable material. These can be obtained from your Miele dealer or from Miele Technical Service. Always observe local building code requirements when selecting duct material.

Description of functions The following functions are available on your ventilation hood, depending on the model: Extraction mode Air entering through the intake is cleaned by the grease filters and conducted out of the building. Recirculation mode (only with conversion kit and charcoal filters as optional accessories, see “Technical data”) The air is drawn in and cleaned first by the grease filter and then by charcoal filters. The air is then circulated back into the kitchen.
Operation Turning on the fan Switch the fan on as soon as you start cooking. This is to ensure that vapors are captured right from the start. It also reduces the risk of residues accumulating in the ventilation hood and any resulting odors. Turning off the blower Turn off the blower by pushing the deflector plate back in. The next time the deflector plate is pulled out, the blower will switch on at setting 2 again. Press the On/Off control to turn the blower off. Pull out the canopy.
Operation Power management The ventilation hood is equipped with a power management system. Power management helps to save energy. It ensures that the blower power level is reduced automatically and that the lighting is switched off. - If the booster level is selected, the blower automatically switches to level 3 after 5 minutes. - If the blower is set to level 3, 2, or 1, it switches back one blower setting after 2 hours and then in 30-minute intervals until the blower eventually switches off.
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 extraction mode, the hood cannot operate efficiently, causing increased operating noise levels. - Always cook with the lowest possible setting.
Cleaning and care Before proceeding with any maintenance or cleaning task, the ventilation hood must be disconnected from the power supply, see “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”. Stainless steel housing General information Unsuitable cleaning agents can damage the surfaces and control elements. Do not use any cleaning agents containing soda, acid, chloride, or solvent. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
Cleaning and care Grease filter Pull out the canopy. Risk of fire An oversaturated grease filter is a fire hazard. Clean the grease filter at regular intervals. The re-usable metal grease filter in the appliance removes solid particles from the kitchen vapors (grease, dust, etc.), preventing soiling of the ventilation hood. The grease filter must be cleaned at regular intervals.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the grease filter in a dishwasher Place the grease filter upright or slightly inclined in the lower basket. Ensure the spray arm is not obstructed. Use a commonly available household dishwashing detergent. In a Miele dishwasher use the “Normal” program. Depending on the detergent used, cleaning the filter in a dishwasher may cause the inside filter surfaces to become discolored. However, this will not affect the functioning of the grease filter in any way.
Cleaning and care OdorFree Charcoal Filter Reinsert the grease filter. With recirculation mode, two charcoal filters must be inserted in addition to the grease filter. These are designed to absorb cooking odors. To remove the charcoal filters, press the holder clip forward slightly and pull the filters down to remove them. The charcoal filters are fitted in the canopy above the grease filter. Charcoal filters are available to order via the Miele website or from your Miele dealer.

Please also observe the information contained in the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” section.
*INSTALLATION* Installation 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.
*INSTALLATION* Installation Condensate If the ducting is to run through cool rooms or ceiling space, for example, the significant variations in temperature between the different areas can cause condensate to form. Insulate the ducting to reduce temperature variations. Miele will not accept warranty claims for any functional defects or damage caused by inadequate ducting.
*INSTALLATION* Installation 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.
