Functional description The 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 an active charcoal filter. 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.

Operation If the power level indicators flash the automatic switch back is not activated. Fan performance ^ To activate the automatic switch back press the "+" button. Level 1 operates at 40% capacity Level 2 operates at 60% capacity Level 3 operates at 80% capacity Level 4 operates at 100% capacity The power level indicators light. ^ To deactivate the automatic switch back press the "–" button. The maximum air flow capacity is 625 cfm.
Operation Delayed Shut Down 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. Turning off the fan ^ Press the On/Off button to turn the fan off. The indicator will go out. ^ Press the Delayed Shut Down button while the fan is still running.

Operation Filter timers Checking the filter timers Grease filters ^ Press the On/Off button to turn the fan on. 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. After the grease filters have been cleaned and put back in place, the grease filter timer must be reset. ^ To do this, press the grease filter button for approx. 3 seconds. ^ Press and hold the grease or charcoal filter button.
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 to prevent grease which has accumulated over a long period of time from hardening 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 cannot 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.
Cleaning and Care ,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: Before cleaning or servicing the hood, disconnect it from the power supply, see "Important Safety Instructions". Avoid: – cleaning agents containing soda, acids or chlorides, – abrasive cleaning agents e.g. powder or cream cleansers, – abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents. These will damage the surface.
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 when the grease filter indicator lights. ,A dirty filter is a fire hazard. ^ In a dishwasher: place the filter vertically in the lower basket, making sure that the spray arm is not blocked. Use a wash program with a max. temperature of 150°F (65°C). In a Miele dishwasher use the "Normal" program.
Cleaning and Care Active charcoal filter In recirculation mode an active charcoal filter must be used in addition to the grease filters. It is designed to absorb cooking odors. The active charcoal filter will be replaced in the canopy above the grease filters. Replacement active charcoal filters can be ordered from Miele. ^ Remove the grease filters to access the charcoal filter. See "Cleaning and Care". ^ Insert the charcoal filter.
Cleaning and Care Changing the light bulbs ,WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: Before changing the light bulbs, disconnect the hood from the power supply, see "Important Safety Instructions". When in use halogen bulbs become extremely hot, and can burn your hands. Do not attempt to change the bulbs until they have had sufficient time to cool. Do not touch the bulb surface. Fingerprints or body oils deposited on the bulb will decrease its life.
After Sales Service Repairs MieleCare In the event of a fault which you cannot easily fix yourself, please contact the Miele Technical Service Department. (USA only) ^ When contacting the Technical Service Department, please quote the model and serial number of your appliance. These are shown on the data plate which is visible when the grease filters are removed.

Appliance dimensions Distance between cooktop and hood (S) Do not install this exhaust hood over cooktops burning solid fuel. Provided a larger distance is not given by the manufacturer of the cooktop, follow the minimum safety distances between a cooktop and the bottom of the hood: Miele Cooktops Non-Miele Cooktops Electric Cooktops 24" (610 mm) Electric Barbeques and Fryers 26" (660 mm) Multiburner Gas cooktops < 43,000 BTU (12.6 KW) and no burner > 15,000 BTU (4.
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. Failure to adequately support the weight as stated may result in the ventilation system falling off the wall, causing personal injury and property damage.

(S8 wall anchors included in the packaging are not for use in USA / CDN.
Installation Protective film Dismantling The casing is covered with a protective film to prevent scratching during transport. If the hood needs to be disassembled, follow the instructions on the "Installation diagram" in the reverse order. ^ Peel off the film before installing the casing parts. A lever is enclosed for easier removal of the chimney extension.
Air extraction ,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.
Air extraction Condensate trap optional accessory – If the exhaust is ducted into an inactive flue, the air must be expelled parallel to the flow direction of the flue. Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer 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.
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.
