Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing

material

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances

often contain materials which, if

handled or disposed of incorrectly,

could be potentially hazardous to

human health and to the environment.

They are, however, essential for the

correct functioning of your appliance.

Please do not therefore dispose of it

with your household waste.

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for

disposal, and can normally be

recycled.

Packaging e.g. cling film, polystyrene

and plastic wrappings must be kept out

of the reach of babies and young

children. Danger of suffocation!

Dispose of or recycle all packaging

materials safely as soon as possible.

Please dispose of it at your local

community waste collection / recycling

centre or contact your dealer for

advice. Ensure that it presents no

danger to children while being stored

for disposal.

It should be unplugged or disconnected

from the mains electricity supply by a

competent person.

Warning - danger of toxic fumes

For appliances with an external fan

motor fitted (...EXT models) the

connection of the two units must be

made using the connection cable and

the plug connectors.

These models may only be combined

with a Miele external motor.

This appliance may only be used in

mobile installations such as ships,

caravans, aircraft etc. if a risk

assessment of the installation has been

carried out by a suitably qualified

engineer.

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 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.

In areas which may be subject to

infestation by cockroaches or other

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.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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.

One of the following technical

measures may be necessary to ensure

safe operation.

– If the only way of ensuring adequate

ventilation is via an open window, a

window contact switch should be

fitted to ensure that the cooker hood

can only operate when the window is

opened sufficiently.

Take care when ventilating the room

through an open window that

ventilation is not impaired by a

closed blind or curtain.

– The cooker hood can be set up to

automatically switch on an air intake

fan or open a motorised inlet flap

when it is switched on.

– The cooker hood can be set up to

automatically switch off a heating

appliance which also depends on

the air from the room when it is

switched on.

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 Miele DSM 400 control module

offers the possibility of combining other

components with the cooker hood (see

"Operation with Control module

DSM 400").

It is available to purchase as an

optional extra.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety regulations prohibit the fitting

of a cooker hood over solid fuel stoves.

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 Miele spare parts

and accessories with this appliance. If

spare parts or accessories from other

manufacturers are used, this will

invalidate the guarantee, and Miele

cannot accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held

liable for damage caused by

non-compliance with these Warning

and Safety instructions.

Modes of operation

The cooker hood works with

. . . air recirculation:

(available as an optional extra with a

conversion kit and charcoal filter: see

"Technical Data")

. . . air extraction:

The air is drawn in and 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, the

non-return flap supplied with the

appliance must be fitted in the exhaust

socket in 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)

The ...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.

Cleaning and care

Avoid:

Before carrying out any cleaning or

maintenance work, disconnect the

cooker hood from the mains supply.

Ensure that:

– 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 used previously with abrasive

cleaning agents.

– it is switched off at the wall socket

and the plug withdrawn, or

– the fuse is withdrawn from the

fused spur connection unit, or

– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or

– the screw-out fuse is removed (in

countries where this is applicable).

These will damage the surface

material.

Important for appliances with

stainless steel housing

Housing

General notes

(This infomation does not apply to the

controls).

The surfaces and controls are

susceptible to scratches and

abrasions. Please observe the

following cleaning instructions.

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned

using the Miele E-cloth, or with a

proprietary non-abrasive cleaning

agent designed specifically for use on

stainless steel.

^ All external surfaces and controls can

be cleaned using warm water with a

little washing-up liquid applied with a

well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.

To help prevent re-soiling, proprietary

conditioning agents for stainless steel

can also be used. Apply sparingly with

an even pressure in the direction of the

"grain".

^ Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft

cloth.

Important for appliances with

lacquered housing

Do not use too much water when

cleaning the controls. Water could

penetrate into the electronics and

cause damage.

(special 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.

^ A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available

from the Miele UK Spare Parts

Department which is suitable for

cleaning surfaces such as stainless

steel, glass, plastic and chrome

without the use of chemicals.

Cleaning and care

Controls

The controls may suffer

discolouration or damage if soiling is

left on them for too long. Remove

soiling straight away.

Observe the General notes on cleaning

earlier in this section.

Do not use stainless steel cleaning

agents on the controls.

^ To take out the grease filters, release

the locking clip on the filter, lower the

filter 45°, unhook it at the back and

remove it.

Grease filters

The re-usable metal grease filters in the

appliance remove solid particles

(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen

vapours, preventing soiling of the

cooker hood.

To avoid damaging the filter or the

hob below, make sure you hold the

filter securely at all times when

handling it.

The grease filters should be cleaned

regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks) to

avoid a build-up of grease but always

clean immediately the grease filter

touch control lamp comes on.

An oversaturated filter is a fire

hazard.

position, ensure that the locking clips

are facing down towards the hob.

^ Clean the filters with a soft nylon

brush in a mild solution of hot water

and a little washing-up liquid.

Do not use:

– cleaning agents containing

descaling agents,

– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or

abrasive all-purpose cleaning

agents,

– oven sprays.

If the grease filters are inadvertently

replaced upside down, insert a small

screwdriver blade into the slits to

disengage the clip.

Cleaning the grease filters in the

dishwasher

^ Place the filters as upright as

possible in the lower basket, with the

short sides upright, and wash on a

65°C programme, ensuring the spray

arm is not obstructed. If a Miele

dishwasher is being used, select the

Sensor wash programme.

^ After replacing the grease filter,

press the grease filter touch control

for approx. 3 seconds to re-set the

operating hours counter.

reached its maximum, the grease filter

touch control should be pressed for

approx. 6 seconds to reset the counter.

Depending on the cleaning agent

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.

^ After cleaning, leave the filters to dry

on an absorbent surface before

replacing them.

When removing the 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.

Cleaning and care

Changing a halogen lamp

^ First remove the grease filters from

the cooker hood.

Before any cleaning or maintenance

work, disconnect the cooker hood

from the mains supply. Ensure that

–

it is switched off at the wall socket

and the plug is withdrawn, or

the fuse is withdrawn from the

fused spur connection unit, or

the mains fuse is withdrawn,or

the screw-out fuse is removed

(in countries where this is

applicable).

–

^ Now turn the thumb screw

anti-clockwise. This releases the

halogen lamp partially from its

housing.

Exercise caution when changing

halogen lamps. They get very hot

during use, and remain hot for some

time after being switched off. Do not

touch the surface directly when

changing a lamp, as grease

particles from your fingers will

adhere to the surface and damage

it. Please follow the manufacturer’s

instructions.

^ Turn the halogen lamp anti-clockwise

and pull it downwards to remove.

Replace with a halogen lamp of the

same specification:

GU/GZ 10, 230 V, 50 W.

^ Fit the new halogen lamp by

reversing the above procedure.

^ Replace the grease filters.

– When deciding on the safety

distance, please note that 650 mm

may be preferable above electric

cookers/hobs to give more working

space.

When planning the installation height

of your cooker hood, the minimum

safety distance between the top of a

cooker or hob and the bottom of the

cooker hood are as follows, unless a

greater distance is specified by the

manufacturer of your cooking

appliance:

– Account should also be taken of the

height of the person who will be

using the hood most often. They

should have sufficient space to work

comfortably at the hob, and be able

to reach the hood controls with ease.

450 mm above electric hobs and

cookers,
