Description of functions The following functions are available on your ventilation hood, depending on the model: Extraction mode The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside. 16 Recirculation mode The recirculation mode requires a recirculation kit and OdorFree Charcoal Filter (available as optional accessories, see “Technical Data” for more information) The air is drawn in and first cleaned by the grease filters and then by an OdorFree Charcoal Filter.
Operation Turning on the blower Turning off the blower Switch the blower on as soon as you start cooking. This is to ensure that vapors are captured right from the start. Press the On/Off control to turn the blower off. Press the On/Off control . The blower turns on at level 2. The symbol and 2 will light up in the blower level display. Selecting the power level Power levels 1 to 3 are available for light to heavy cooking vapors and odors.
Operation Turning power management on/off Safety shut-off You can deactivate power management. Keep in mind that this may increase energy consumption. If power management has been deactivated, the ventilation hood will switch itself off automatically after 12 hours if it has been left on (blower and overhead lighting). To set this option, turn off the fan and the overhead lighting first. Press the and buttons at the same time for approx. 10 seconds, until 1 lights up.
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 filters Risk of fire Oversaturated grease filters are a fire hazard. Clean the grease filters at regular intervals. The re-usable metal grease filters in the appliance remove solid particles (grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapors, preventing soiling of the ventilation hood. The grease filters must be cleaned at regular intervals. Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air extraction and will lead to increased levels of soiling in the ventilation hood and in the kitchen.
Cleaning and care In a Miele dishwasher use the “Normal” program. Depending on the detergent used, cleaning the filters in a dishwasher may cause the inside filter surfaces to become discolored. However, this will not affect the functioning of the grease filters in any way. After cleaning After cleaning, leave the filters on an absorbent surface to dry. When removing the filters for cleaning, also clean off any accessible oil or fat buildup from the housing. Doing so will prevent a fire hazard.
Cleaning and care When to change the OdorFree Charcoal Filter Replace the charcoal filter when it no longer absorbs kitchen odors effectively. It should be replaced at least every 6 months. Disposing of charcoal filters Used charcoal filters can be disposed of with normal household waste. Turn off the blower and the lighting. The light bulbs can get very hot when in use. Allow the bulbs to cool down for a few minutes before changing them.
*INSTALLATION* Installation Before installation Before installation, it is important to read the information contained in this chapter and in the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” chapter. The screws and plugs are designed for use in solid walls only. Use different fasteners for other wall construction types. Make sure that the wall can support the load. Removing the protective film The housing components are covered by a protective film to prevent them from damage during transport.

*INSTALLATION* Installation a Extraction mode b Recirculation c Air vent positioned at the top for recirculation de Installation area (only d is required for recirculation operation). Wall or ceiling area for the ducting cutout and for the electrical outlet. For recirculation operation, only an electrical outlet needs to be installed.
*INSTALLATION* Installation Installation recommendations - A distance of at least 26" (660 mm) is recommended above electric cooktops to provide more workspace and easier cooking under the hood. Drilling diagram for wall mounting When drilling, please follow the directions contained on the accompanying installation sheet. - When selecting an installation height, always take the user height into consideration.
*INSTALLATION* 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.
*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. If the ducting is to be laid horizontally, it must be laid with a downwards sloping gradient of at least ³/₈" (1 cm) per meter. This is to ensure that condensate cannot drain back into the ventilation hood.
*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. 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.
