which depends on the 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.

vermin, pay particular attention to  
keeping the appliance and its  
surroundings in a clean condition at all  
times. Any damage which may be  
caused by cockroaches or other vermin  
will not be covered by the guarantee.  
When used in extraction mode, with or  
without an external motor fitted, the  
appliance draws air in from the room in  
which it is installed and from  
neighbouring rooms.  
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.

kitchen.  
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.  
Ventilation can be maintained by air  
inlets which must not 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.  
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.

Description of the functions  
The cooker hood works with  
. . . air extraction:  
. . . air recirculation:  
(DUU 2900 conversion kit for  
recirculation required)  
The cooker hood draws in the cooking  
vapours. First, the air is drawn in via the  
edge extraction panels. It is then  
guided through and cleaned by the  
grease filters before being directed  
outside.  
The air is drawn in through the edge  
extraction panels and then cleaned by  
the grease filters. It is then directed into  
the recirculation unit where it is also  
cleaned by the charcoal filters. The  
cleaned air is then recirculated back  
into the kitchen.  
The cooker hood operates with a  
non-return flap.  
Before using the cooker hood in  
recirculation mode, ensure that the  
charcoal filters are in place. See  
Cleaning and care.  
This flap is closed when the cooker  
hood is switched off, so that no  
exchange of room air and outside air  
can take place.  
When the cooker hood is switched on,  
the non-return flap opens for the  
cooking vapours to be blown directly  
outside.  
. . . an external motor:  
(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.

(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen  
vapours, preventing soiling of the  
cooker hood.  
Important for appliances with  
lacquered housing  
Clean the panels and grease filters  
regularly but always clean them imme-  
diately if the Grease filter symbol [ of  
the operating hours button lights up.  
(Special order finish)  
It is very difficult to clean this type of  
surface without causing minor marks to  
the surface material. This can become  
particularly noticeable with darker  
colours and if there is halogen lighting  
in the kitchen.  
We recommend cleaning them at least  
every 3-4 weeks. Otherwise grease  
which builds up on the panels and  
grease filters over a long period of time  
can harden, making cleaning more  
difficult.  
Controls  
,An oversaturated filter is a fire  
hazard.  
The controls may suffer  
discolouration or damage if soiling is  
left on them for too long.  
Remove soiling straight away.  
Please observe the General notes on  
cleaning earlier in this section.  
Do not use stainless steel cleaning  
agents on the controls.

Cleaning and care  
Cleaning the panels by hand  
^ After cleaning, leave the filters to dry  
on an absorbent surface before  
replacing them.  
^ See the notes under "Housing".  
Cleaning the grease filters by hand  
^ When removing the panels and  
grease filters for cleaning, also clean  
off any residues of oil or fat from the  
now accessible housing to prevent  
the risk of these catching fire.  
^ Clean the filters with a soft nylon  
brush in a mild solution of hot water  
and a little washing-up liquid.  
Do not use "neat" washing-up liquid.  
^ Replace the grease filters, making  
sure that the locking clips are facing  
down towards the hob.  
Avoid:  
– cleaning agents containing  
descaling agents,  
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or  
abrasive all-purpose cleaners.  
– oven sprays.  
Cleaning the grease filters and  
panels in the dishwasher  
^ Place the filters and panels as  
upright as possible in the lower  
basket, with the short sides upright.  
Make sure that the spray arm can  
move freely.  
^ If a grease filter is inadvertently  
replaced upside down, insert a small  
screwdriver blade into the slit to  
disengage the clip.  
^ 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.  
However, this will not affect the  
functioning of the filters in any way.

Installation  
4) If the cooker hood is being installed  
near to a wall, a minimum distance of at  
least 50 mm must be observed so that  
the edge extraction panels and the  
grease filters can be removed easily.  
,Before installation, it is important  
to read the information given on the  
following pages as well as the  
"Warning and Safety instructions" at  
the beginning of this booklet.  
This is particularly crucial when  
using the cooker hood at the same  
time as a heating appliance that  
relies on oxygen from the same  
room to avoid the danger of toxic  
fumes building up.  
5) The cooker hood is secured in the  
cut-out by clamps.  
This requires that the ceiling is made of  
a solid material, such as wood.  
,Make sure the material is strong  
enough to bear the weight of the  
cooker hood.

Connection for air extraction  
– Only use smooth pipes or flexible  
hoses 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 building  
– When using an external motor, make  
sure that the exhaust ducting is  
sufficiently rigid. The external motor  
can cause an underpressure which  
could result in the exhaust ducting  
distorting.  
To achieve the greatest possible air  
extraction with the lowest noise level,  
please note the following:  
regulations. Seek approval from the  
building inspector where necessary.  
– 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.  
– All ducting, pipework and fittings  
must be of non-flammable materials.  
– 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 by 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 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.  
Important  
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  
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.

Connection for air extraction  
Silencer  
...with air extraction:  
(optional accessory)  
The silencer not only reduces noise  
from the fan, 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.  
...with 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  
b if possible, or if the ducting is long,  
then in the ducting above the cooker  
hood itself c.  
To achieve even further reductions in  
noise levels, a special silencer can be  
fitted in the ducting system.  
In the case of an external motor located  
inside the house, fitting a silencer  
behind the external motor d 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.
