Functional description  
The ventilation hood works by air ex-  
traction. The air is drawn in and  
cleaned by the grease filters and di-  
rected outside.  
The hood comes equipped with a  
non-return flap. This flap automatically  
closes when the hood is turned off so  
that no exchange of outside air and  
room air can occur. When the hood is  
turned on, the air pressure of the ex-  
haust fan automatically opens the flap  
blowing the inside air and cooking  
odors outside.

Cleaning and care  
Stainless steel  
Before cleaning or servicing the  
hood, disconnect it from the power  
supply by either removing the fuse,  
unplugging it from the outlet or man-  
ually "tripping" the circuit breaker.  
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned  
using a non-abrasive stainless steel  
cleaner.  
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner  
for stainless steel can also be used.  
Apply sparingly with even pressure.  
Cleaning the casing  
,Never use abrasive cleaners,  
scouring pads, steel wool or caustic  
(oven) cleaners on the hood. They  
will damage the surface.  
Stainless steel colored controls  
These controls may become discol-  
ored or damaged if not cleaned reg-  
ularly.  
Do not use a stainless steel cleaner  
on these controls.  
^ All external surfaces and controls can  
be cleaned with warm water and liq-  
uid dish soap applied with a soft  
sponge.  
^ Wipe dry using a soft cloth.  
Do not use too much water when  
cleaning the controls. Water could  
penetrate into the electronics and  
cause damage.  
Avoid:  
– cleaning agents containing soda, ac-  
ids or chlorides,  
– abrasive cleaning agents e.g. pow-  
der or cream cleansers,  
– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers  
or sponges which have been previ-  
ously used with abrasive cleaning  
agents.  
These will damage the surface.

Cleaning and care  
Grease filters  
^ Clean the filters  
- by hand: use a scrub brush in  
warm water with a mild detergent.  
- in a dishwasher: place the filters in  
the lower basket, making sure that  
the spray arm is not blocked.  
The reusable metal grease filters re-  
move solid particles from the vented  
kitchen air (grease, dust, etc).  
Depending on the detergent, clean-  
ing the grease filters in a dishwasher  
may cause permanent discoloration  
of the filter surface. Performance of  
the filter will not be affected by this  
discoloration.  
The grease filters should be cleaned  
every 3-4 weeks or whenever the  
grease filter timer indicator lights.  
A dirty filter is a fire hazard.  
^ After cleaning, the filters can be  
placed on a towel to air dry.  
^ While the filters are removed, clean  
any dirt or grease from the filter cas-  
ing to prevent the risk of fire.  
When putting the grease filters back  
make sure that the locking clips are vis-  
ible facing down towards the cooking  
surface.  
If the filters are incorrectly installed, in-  
sert a small screwdriver into the slit  
along its edge to disengage it from the  
casing.  
^ To remove the grease filters press the  
locking clips in towards the middle of  
the filter. Holding carefully, lower and  
remove the filter.  
^ After returning the grease filters,  
press the grease filter button for  
3 seconds to reset the timer. The indi-  
cator light will go out.  
^ If the grease filters are cleaned be-  
fore the timer has reached its maxi-  
mum, the grease filter button should  
be pressed for 6 seconds to reset the  
counter to zero.

Cleaning and care  
Changing the light bulb  
To change a bulb:  
Before changing the light bulbs, dis-  
connect the hood from the power  
supply by either removing the fuse,  
unplugging it, or manually "tripping"  
the circuit breaker.  
When in use halogen bulbs become  
extremely hot, and they can burn  
your hands. Do not attempt to  
change the bulbs until they have  
had sufficient time to cool down.  
^ Remove the outer ring, a.  
Do not touch the bulb surface. Fin-  
gerprints or body oils deposited on  
the bulb will decrease the life of the  
bulb. Please follow the bulb manu-  
facturer’s instructions.  
^ Support the glass, c, while detach-  
ing the circlip, b. Be careful not to let  
the glass fall out.  
^ Pull the old bulb, d, out of its socket  
and replace it with a new one.  
^ Reinstall the glass, circlip and outer  
ring.  
Never use the lights without the  
glass, c, installed. The glass is spe-  
cially made to filter harmful light  
rays.

Air extraction  
– Use smooth or flexible pipes made  
from approved non-flammable mate-  
rials for exhaust ducting.  
Danger of toxic fumes.  
Gas cooking appliances release  
carbon monoxide that can be harm-  
ful or fatal if inhaled. The exhaust  
gases extracted by the hood  
should be vented outside of the  
building only.  
Do not terminate the exhaust  
ducts in attics, garages,  
crawlspaces, etc.  
– Where the ductwork is horizontal, it  
must slope away from the hood at  
least 1/8" per foot (1cm per meter) to  
prevent condensation dripping into  
the appliance.  
– If the exhaust is ducted through an  
outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall  
Vent can be used.  
Please read and follow the "Warning  
and Safety Instructions" to reduce the  
risk of personal injury. Follow all local  
building codes when installing the  
hood.  
Exhaust ducting and connections  
– The ducting should be as short and  
straight as possible, and the number  
of sharp bends should be minimized.  
– For most efficient air extraction, the  
diameter of the ductwork should not  
be less than 6" (150 mm). Use of flat  
ducts also reduces the air extraction  
efficiency.  
– Noise levels of the hood will increase  
if flat ducts or round ducts of less  
than 6" (150 mm) in diameter are  
used.  
– If the exhaust is ducted into an inac-  
tive flue, the air must be expelled  
parallel to the flow direction of the  
flue.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of fire, only use  
metal ductwork.  
CAUTION  
To reduce risk of fire and to properly  
exhaust air, be sure to duct air out-  
side. Do not vent exhaust air into  
spaces within walls or ceilings or  
into attics, crawl spaces, or garages.

Air extraction  
Never connect an exhaust hood to  
an active chimney, dryer vent, vent  
flue, or room venting ductwork. Seek  
professional advice before connect-  
ing an exhaust hood vent to an exist-  
ing, inactive chimney or vent flue.  
Ductwork with a diameter of less  
than 6" (150 mm) should only be  
used when absolutely necessary. As  
duct diameter decreases, the hood’s  
performance and sound levels will  
be affected.  
Important:  
If the ductwork runs through rooms,  
ceilings, garages, etc. where tempera-  
ture variations exist, it may need to be  
insulated to reduce condensation. In  
some cases, a condensate trap may  
also be required to collect and evapo-  
rate any condensate which may occur.  
When installing a condensate trap,  
ensure that it is positioned vertically  
and if possible directly above the ex-  
haust outlet.
