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.

When installing the hood, make sure

that the following minimum dis-

tance (S) between the top of a Miele

cooking surface and the bottom of

the hood is:

- 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops

- 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops

- 26" (65 cm) above an open grill

For non-Miele cooking appliances

maintain the safety distances recom-

mended by the cooktop manufac-

turer in their installation and operat-

ing instructions.

If there is more than one appliance

beneath the hood and they have dif-

ferent minimum safety distances al-

ways select the greater distance.

^ Make a line on the ceiling going from

the rear of the cooktop towards the

front and centered over the cooktop.

^ Cut a 7 ¹/₂" (190 mm) hole in the ceil-

ing for the exhaust duct to pass

through. The exhaust connection has

a 6" (150mm) diameter.

See "Warning and Safety instruc-

tions" for further information.

26" (65 cm) is recommended for all in-

stallations to allow for optimum work

space under the hood.

CAUTION:

During the installation process,

please be careful of sharp edges

that can cause harm.

Installation

^ Drill four ³/₁₆" (5 mm) holes in the ceil-

ing.

^ Position the mounting plate and align

the notches with the guide line.

Mark the position of the four holes to

be drilled a for securing the mount-

ing plate and determining the posi-

tion of the hole b the power cord will

feed through.

The S10 wall anchors included in the

packaging are not for use in

USA/CDN.

Be certain that the ceiling is stable

enough to support the hood.

^ Feed the ductwork and power cord

through their respective openings in

the ceiling.

If 6" (150mm) diameter ducting is not

possible then 5" (125 mm) ducting can

be used in conjunction with a reducing

collar available from the Miele Technical

Service Department (see "Installation /

"Air extraction").

Installation

^ Secure the ducting to the mounting

plate using a hose clip.

^ Insert the short edge of two spring

clips into their slots from below and

position so that the tab faces the cen-

ter of the mounting plate.

^ Pull the power cord through the

mounting plate.

^ Insert the four countersunk screws

M 6 x 20 into the recessed holes from

above.

Tape the screws from above to pre-

vent them from being pushed up-

wards when the nuts are tightened.

Installation

^ Secure the mounting plate to the ceil-

ing using the 8 x 60 lag bolts. Once

tight, make sure that the mounting

plate can safely support the weight of

the hood.

^ Pull the power cord through its cut

out on the flange of the chimney.

^ Using at least two people, lift the

hood and guide the spring clips

through their respective slots in the

flange at the top of the chimney.

Make sure they click into place and

that the hood is hanging securely

from the spring clips before allowing

them to carry the weight.

Installation

^ Bolt the flange firmly to the ceiling us-

ing the four M6 nuts.

^ Shorten the power cord as much as

possible and attach it to the terminal

block inside the chimney (see "Elec-

trical data").

^ Finally, being careful not to scratch

the chimney, push the cover plate up

and onto its locking pins until it clicks

into place. If installed correctly, the

cover should be secure and flush

against the ceiling.

Before connecting the appliance

read the "Warning and Safety In-

structions" and the "Electrical data"

sections.

^ Before using the appliance remove

the grease filter and remove the pro-

tective foil from the filter frame. Re-

turn the filter.

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.
