Description of functions
The cooktop transmits information
about its operational status to the hood
using a radio signal.
Con@ctivity 2.0 function
Automatic control
This hood features a communication
function which enables the automatic
control of the hood based on the
operational status of a Miele induction
cooktop.
– When a burner is turned on, the
cooktop lighting on the hood turns
on automatically. After a brief delay,
the ventilation hood fan also comes
on.
– During cooking, the hood
automatically selects the fan level
based on the number of burners in
operation and their power levels.
– Once you have turned off the
cooktop, the fan and the lighting will
turn off automatically after a
predetermined delay.
Detailed information about this function
can be found under "Operation."
To enable the communication function,
the cooktop must be equipped with the
corresponding Con@ctivity 2.0 stick .

Operation (Automatic mode)
When Con@ctivity 2.0 is active, the
hood always operates in Automatic
mode (see "Activating Con@ctivity
2.0").
Reaction time
Changing the power setting on the
cooktop does not lead to an immediate
increase or decrease in cooking vapors.
For this reason, the hood reacts with a
slight delay.
See "Cooking without Con@ctivity 2.0"
for information on manually operating
the hood.
Delays can also result from the fact that
the cooktop transmits the information
to the hood in intervals.
Cooking with Con@ctivity 2.0
(Automatic mode)
Turn on a burner to the desired power
setting.
The reaction time can vary from a few
seconds to a couple of minutes.
The hood lighting will come on.
After a few seconds, the fan will come
on, briefly operating at power level 2
before immediately switching to level 1.
The hood selects the fan level
automatically during cooking.
This level is determined by the total
output of the cooktop, i.e. the number
of burners in operation and the power
settings selected.
If you select a higher power setting
on the cooktop or switch on multiple
burners, the hood will switch to a
higher fan level.
If you select a lower power setting on
the cooktop or turn off a burner, the
hood will accordingly switch to a
lower fan level.

Operation (Automatic mode)
Cooking process
Turning off
If, for example, you switch on a
burner at the highest power setting to
heat cookware in preparation for
searing and then reduce the power
level after approx. 60 to 90 seconds,
a cooking process is recognized.
Turn off all burners.
Over the next few minutes, the
ventilation hood fan setting will
decrease one level at a time until the
hood eventually turns off.
This helps to neutralize any lingering
vapors and odors in the air.
The hood turns on automatically and,
after the cooktop power level has been
reduced, switches back to fan level 3,
where it remains for approx. 5 minutes.
– From the intensive setting IS, the fan
immediately switches to level 3.
After this, the fan level is once again
determined by the Con@ctivity function.
– If the fan is operating at level 3, it will
switch to level 2 after approx. 1
minute.
You can also manually select a
different fan level before then.
– From level 2, the fan switches to level
1 after 2 minutes.
– After 2 minutes at level 1, the fan
automatically turns off.
– After another 30 seconds, the lighting
turns off.
The cooking process is now finished.

Cleaning and care
Important for the controls
Grease filters
The reusable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove the solid particles
contained in kitchen vapors (fat, dust,
etc.), thereby preventing the ventilation
hood from becoming dirty.

Installation recommendations
Structural support
– When selecting an installation height,
always take the user height into
consideration. Users should have
ample space to work comfortably on
the cooktop and reach the ventilation
hood controls with ease.
– Please note that the greater the
distance from the cooktop, the less
effective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
– To achieve optimal vapor extraction,
make sure that the hood covers the
cooktop. The hood should be
positioned centrally over the
cooktop, not to the side or rear.
– The cooktop should be no wider than
the hood. Preferably, it should be
narrower.
The hood must be attached to rigid
structural framing that is supported
in its entirety by the ceiling joists, or
to the ceiling joists directly. Do not
attach the plate directly to the ceiling
with anchors, toggle bolts, etc.
– The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
should be easy to reach and
disassemble in case a service call is
necessary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cupboards, shelves,
ceilings or decorative elements in the
vicinity of the ventilation hood.
Removing the protective film
The housing components are covered
by a protective film to prevent them
from becoming damaged during
transport.
Please remove this film before
installing the housing components. It
can be peeled off easily without any
additional tools.

Use a knife to release the four
spacers and the two covers from the
spacer frame supplied.
Drill four holes ³/8" (10 mm),
approx. 4 ¹/2" (115 mm) deep for the
plugs supplied.
Use the spacer frame as a drilling
template. Place it on the ceiling with
the arrows pointing forwards. Using
the notches, align the spacer frame
on the intersecting lines and make
pencil marks for the drill holes.
Place the four plugs in the holes and
screw in the four screws so that they
protrude by approx. 1 ³/16" (30 mm).

Installation
Loosen the two telescopic extension
piece holders from the installation
frame.
The spacer frame can be installed
between the chimney and the ceiling.
This creates a shadow which gives the
illusion of a gap between the ceiling
and the chimney. This is useful if the
ceiling is not level or is uneven. The
hood is aligned vertically with the
spacers supplied. Visual irregularities
between the chimney and the ceiling
are then concealed by the shadow.
If you wish to install the hood with the
spacer frame, remove the four inserts
from the fixing holes.

Exhaust duct
– Make sure that all connections are
secure and airtight.
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.
Remember that any constriction of
the airflow will reduce extraction
performance and increase operating
noise.
If the exhaust duct is to be routed
through an outside wall, we
recommend installing a telescopic
wall vent or a rooftop vent (available
as an optional accessory).
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.
Please read and follow the
"IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk
of personal injury. Follow all local
building codes when installing the
hood.
If the exhaust air is to be conducted
into a vent flue, the intake piece must
be aligned with the flow direction of
the flue.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
duct hoses made from non-
flammable materials for exhaust
ductwork.
When installing the exhaust duct
horizontally, you must slope it away
from the source by at least ³/8" per
3 ³/8" (1 cm per meter). This ensures
that condensate cannot drain back
into the ventilation hood.
To achieve the greatest possible air
extraction with the lowest noise
levels, please note the following:
– The diameter of the exhaust duct
should not be less than 6" (150 mm).
If the exhaust duct is to be routed
through rooms, ceiling space etc., the
temperatures in these different areas
may differ greatly, which means that
the problem of condensation will
need to be addressed. The exhaust
duct will need to be insulated.
– If flat exhaust ducts are used, the
cross section should not be smaller
than that of the exhaust connector.
– The exhaust duct should be as short
and straight as possible.
– If elbows are needed, make sure they
have a large radius.
– The exhaust duct itself must not be
kinked or compressed.

Exhaust duct
Condensate trap
In addition to insulating the exhaust
duct, we recommend installing a
condensate trap to collect and
evaporate any condensate which might
accumulate.
Condensate traps are available for
exhaust ducts with a diameter of 5"
(125 mm) or 6" (150 mm).
When installing a condensate trap,
make sure that it is positioned
vertically and, if possible, directly
above the hood outlet duct collar.
The arrow on the housing indicates
the direction of airflow.
