Energy and environment
Sustainability is one of the most important
topics of our generation. For years, Miele
has been producing household appliances,
such as washing machines and
dishwashers as the most obvious examples
with low consumption gures in mind. As a
further proof of our ability and commitment,
Miele now also oers a low consumption
rangehood, the DA 6390 with the ECO
package. In comparison to other models
in the range, this model saves up to 70%
energy.
Energy saving Motor
The heart of every rangehood is its motor.
For the rst time ever, Miele is using a direct
current motor as part of the ECO package.
In comparison to other types of motors, it
is more energy-saving by up to 70% and
is particularly quiet in operation, without
compromising on performance.
Miele high-power LED lighting
LED lights are a "highlight" in the truest
sense of the word from many perspectives.
Not only because they are visually
appealing, but because of their inherent
ecological advantages, Miele decided to
pool engineering resources with the
German lighting specialist Hella, with a view
to developing a rangehood specic high-
performance LED light globe.
The outcome; Miele high-performance LED
lights oer great energy savings potential,
using only 2 Watts per hour. In
comparison to o-the-shelf LED lights,
Miele high performance LED lights oer a
warm and natural light tone and an even
cooktop illumination.
In addition, Miele high-performance LED
lights are tested for a useful life of 20 years
of average household use (whch is dened
as 10 operating hours per week or 10,000
operating hours in total) which means
that there aren't any light globe changes
required over the designed life of the
rangehood.
Mains switch for 0 Watt stand-by energy
consumption
The Miele ECO package oers another
feature that helps saving energy – an easily
accessible mains switch to reduce energy
consumption down to 0 Watt. This switch
allows you to switch the rangehood from
stand-by to O-mode, thus disconnecting it
from the power supply altogether and
preventing any stand-by energy
consumption.
Intelligent PowerManagement
With their intelligent PowerManagement
feature, the electronic controls on the ECO
package save power automatically, without
any input from the user. Based on pre-set
intervals, the power settings are reduced
automatically based on common
requirements, because a lower power set-
ting also means a lower energy
consumption.
