Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check the appliance
~
for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed if it
~
is correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety
requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, the connection data
~
(frequency and voltage) on the data plate must correspond to the
mains electricity supply. Check that this is the case before
connecting the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any
doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a
~
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has
~
been fully installed.
Tampering with electrical connections or components and
~
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults. Only open the housing as described in the
instructions given in the installation sheet and in the Cleaning and
care section of this booklet. Under no circumstances should any
other parts of the housing be opened.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
~
considerble danger to users. Installation, maintenance and repair
work must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

Warning and Safety instructions
Using at the same time as other heating appliances that
depend on the air from the room
Danger of poisoning by toxic fumes.
Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood at the
~
same time and in the same room or area of the house as another
heating appliance which depends on air in the room.
Such appliances include gas, oil, wood or coal-fired boilers and
heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs, cookers
or ovens which draw air in from the room and duct exhaust gases
out through a chimney or extraction ducting.
Cooker hoods draw air in from the room in which they are installed
and from neighbouring rooms. This applies to extraction mode
cooker hoods and to recirculation mode cooker hoods with a
recirculation box located outside the room. If there is insufficient air,
an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved
of oxygen, impairing combustion. Harmful gases could be drawn
out of the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with
potentially fatal consequences.

Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given off by
the heating appliances from being drawn back into the room when
the cooker hood and the heater are in operation simultaneously, an
underpressure of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible in
the room.
This can be achieved by providing adequate ventilation such as air
inlets which cannot be blocked, in windows, doors and outside wall
vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the
cooker hood can only be switched on when the heating appliance is
switched off or vice versa.
The ventilation must have the appropriate cross-sectional area to
ensure an adequate supply of air.
A ventilation brick alone is not generally sufficient to ensure safe
ventilation.
,The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken
into account. If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder
or, for gas, a qualified gas fitter (GasSafe registered in the UK)
must be sought.
If the hood is being operated in recirculation mode and the air is
being directed back into the kitchen, the above restrictions do not
apply.

Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
Danger of burning with open flames. Never use an open flame
~
beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé
or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the cooker hood
could draw flames into the filter. Fat particles sucked into the cooker
hood present a fire hazard.
When cooking with a gas hob, a build-up of heat can damage the
~
cooker hood.
– When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any
burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking
zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time.
– Select pans which are suitable for the size of the cooking zone.
– Control the flame so that it does not spread out beyond the sides
of the pan.
– Do not allow the pans to overheat excessively (e.g. when using a
wok).
Always switch the cooker hood on when using the hob, otherwise
~
condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood
~
on fire. When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers
etc, do not leave the pans unattended. Never leave an open grill
unattended when grilling.

Warning and Safety instructions
Do not use the cooker hood without the filters in place. This way
~
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance
and hindering its smooth operation.
The filters should be regularly cleaned or changed as
~
appropriate. Saturated filters are a fire hazard.
The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat
~
rising from the hob.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood
has cooled down.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could
~
reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Correct installation
Check with the manufacturer of your cooking appliance whether it
~
is safe to install a hood above it.
The minimum safety distance between the top of the cooker or
~
hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Appliance
dimensions" section of this booklet must be maintained, unless the
manufacturer states that a greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the cooker
hood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the
cooker hood, select the greater distance.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid
~
fuel stoves.

Warning and Safety instructions
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
~
material. These can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts
department or from builders' merchants.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue
~
which is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which
ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct
~
no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.
Accessories
Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this appliance.
~
Using spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers will
invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Modes of operation
The cooker hood works with
. . . air recirculation:
(requires a conversion kit and charcoal
filter, available as optional extras: see
"Technical Data")
. . . air extraction:
The air is drawn in, cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by a
charcoal filter. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen
through grilles in the top of the cooker
hood extension piece.
If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, then the
non-return flap supplied with the
appliance must be fitted in the exhaust
socket of the motor unit.
Before using the cooker hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
charcoal filter is in place. See
"Cleaning and care".
Having a non-return flap fitted in the
ducting ensures that air, once ducted
to the outside, cannot get back into the
room again.
The flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off.
. . . an external motor:
When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
(EXT models only)
EXT models are designed to be
connected to an external motor located
outside the room.
The external motor is connected to the
cooker hood by means of a control cable,
and is operated by the controls on the
cooker hood.

Modes of operation
Con|ctivity 2.0
Automatic control
This cooker hood is fitted with a
communication module which enables
the operation of the cooker hood to be
automatically controlled by the
operating status of a Miele electric hob
with onset controls.
The hob transmits information about its
operating status to the cooker hood via
radio.
For communication to take place, the
hob must be fitted with the Con|ctivity
2.0 stick a.
– When the hob is switched on, the
cooker hood hob lighting switches on
and after a short time the cooker
hood fan switches on.
The Con|ctivity 2.0 stick for the hob is
supplied with this cooker hood. Please
refer to the installation instructions for
the Con|ctivity 2.0 stick to check
whether connection is possible.
– During cooking the cooker hood
automatically sets its power level
according to the number of cooking
zones in operation and their power
levels.
To use the Con|ctivity 2.0 function a
radio connection between the hob and
the cooker hood must be established
(see "Activating the Con|ctivity 2.0
function").
– After the hob has been switched off,
the cooker hood fan and hob lighting
will switch off automatically after a
period of time.
For more detailed information about this
function, please see "Operation".

Operation (Automatic mode)
When Con|ctivity 2.0 is activated, the
cooker hood always operates in
automatic mode (see "Activating the
Con|ctivity 2.0 function").
To operate the cooker hood manually,
see "Cooking without the Con|ctivity
2.0 function".

Reaction time
(Automatic mode)
The reaction of the cooker hood is
slightly delayed because altering the
power settings on the hob will not
necessarily result in an increase or
decrease in cooking vapours.
^ Switch on the hob and select a
setting.
The cooker hood lighting will come on.
After a few seconds the fan will come
on, first at level 2, then switching
immediately to level 1.
A delay in the reaction of the cooker
hood can also be because the hob
transmits information to the cooker
hood at intervals.
During cooking the cooker hood
automatically sets its power level
according to the number of cooking
zones in operation and their power
levels.
The cooker hood can react within
seconds or a few minutes.
^ If a higher setting for a hob cooking
zone is selected or more cooking
zones are switched on, the hood will
then operate at a higher fan power
level as well.
^ Similarly, if a lower setting is selected
for a cooking zone or cooking zones
are switched off, the fan power level
of the cooker hood will be adjusted
accordingly.
The power level is adjusted according
to the total number of cooking zones
and power settings in use on the hob.

mainentance and care (see
"Warning amnd Safety").
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
using Miele's non-abrasive cleaning
agent for stainless steel, following the
instructions on the packaging.
Housing
To help prevent re-soiling, Miele
conditioning agent for stainless steel
can also be used. Follow the
General
instructions on the packaging.
The surfaces and controls are
susceptible to scratches and
abrasion. Please observe the
following cleaning instructions.
Important for appliances with
lacquered housing
Please follow the information given in
“General notes" earlier in this section. It
is very difficult to clean this type of
surface without causing minor marks to
the surface material.
^ All external surfaces and controls can
be cleaned using a microfibre cloth
or with warm water and a little
washing-up liquid applied with a well
wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
This can become particularly
noticeable with darker colours and if
there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.
^ Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft
cloth.
^ Glass surfaces can be cleaned with a
proprietary cleaning agent for glass.
Avoid:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides or solvents,
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners or cream cleaners,
and abrasive sponges, as well as pot
scourers or sponges which have
been previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents. These will damage
the surface material.
– sharp metal tools,
– oven sprays.

– oven sprays.
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
,An oversaturated filter is a fire
hazard.
^ Place the filters as upright as
possible in the lower basket, with the
short sides upright, and wash using a
65°C programme, ensuring the spray
arm is not obstructed.
^ Select a programme with a maximum
temperature of 65° C. If a Miele
dishwasher is being used, select the
Sensor wash programme.
^ Use a mild dishwasher detergent.
Depending on the dishwasher
detergent used, cleaning the filters
in a dishwasher can cause
permanent discolouration to the
surface.
^ To take out the grease filters, release
the locking clip on the filters, lower
the filters 45°, unhook them at the
back and remove them.
However, this will not affect the
functioning of the filters in any way.

– When deciding on the safety
distance between the hob and
cooker hood, please note that a
distance of 650 mm above electric
cookers/hobs may be preferable to
give more working space under the
hood.

– Account should also be taken of the
height of the person who will be
using the hood most often. The
person should have sufficient space
to work comfortably at the hob, and
also be able to reach the hood
controls with ease.
– Please be aware that if positioned
too high, extraction will be inefficient.
– If you want the top of the cooker
hood to be mounted flush with the
ceiling, make sure there is adequate
space below it for working. See
maximum/minimum appliance height.

Connection for air extraction
– Only use smooth pipes or flexible
hoses and fittings made from
non-flammable materials for the
extraction ducting.
Important: To avoid the danger of
toxic fumes, please observe the
Warning and Safety instructions.
This is especially crucial when using
the cooker hood at the same time as
another heating appliance which
relies on air from the same room.
The cooker hood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
– When using an external motor, make
sure that the exhaust ducting is
sufficiently rigid. The external motor
can cause an underpressure which
can result in the exhaust ducting
distorting.
To achieve the greatest possible air
extraction with the lowest noise level,
please note the following:
– To ensure efficient air extraction, the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 150 mm.
– If flat ducting is being used, the
cross-sectional area must not be
smaller than the cross-sectional area
of the exhaust connection.
– The exhaust ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
– Only use wide radius bends.
– The exhaust ducting should not be
kinked or compressed.
– Ensure that all connections are
strong and airtight.
– Where ducting is horizontal, it must
be laid to slope away at at least 1 cm
per metre. This is to ensure that
condensate cannot drain back into
the cooker hood.

Connection for air extraction
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into Condensate trap
the open air, the installation of a
telescopic wall vent or roof vent
(available as an optional accessory)
is recommended.
(optional accessory)
– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be
directed in the flow direction of the
flue.
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to
collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur. Condensate traps
are available for C 125 mm or
Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the
problem of condensation will need to
be addressed. The exhaust ducting will
need to be suitably insulated.
C 150 mm ducting.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and if possible directly above the
exhaust connection. The arrow on the
housing indicates the direction of
air-flow.
Cooker hoods designed for use with an
external motor (...EXT models) have an
integrated condensate trap.

Connection for air extraction
Silencer
...with air extraction:
(optional accessory)
The silencer not only reduces noise
from the motor outside the house, but
also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic
noise).
For this reason the silencer must be
positioned as close as possible to the
ducting exit a.
...in recirculation mode:
The silencer needs to be positioned
between the exhaust connection and
the directional unit b. Ensure there is
adequate space in the tower for fitting
it.
To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer can be
fitted in the ducting system.
...air extraction with external motor:
To minimise noise from the motor in the
kitchen, the silencer should be
positioned in front of the external motor
c if possible, or if the ducting is long,
above the exhaust connection on the
cooker hood d.
In the case of an external motor located
inside the house, fitting a silencer
behind the external motor e reduces
the noise of the motor outside the
house.
In all modes of operation, the most
effective noise reductions are
achieved if two silencers are fitted
one behind the other in the system.
