Warning and Safety instructions
3
This appliance complies with all relevant local and national safety
requirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal
injury and damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please
read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time.
They contain important notes on the safety, installation, use and
maintenance of the appliance. Miele cannot be held liable for non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that all users
are familiar with the contents. Pass them on to any future owner of
the appliance.
Correct application
This cooker hood is intended for use in domestic households and
similar working and residential environments.
The cooker hood is not intended for outdoor use.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance to extract vapours
and remove odours from cooking.
Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be
dangerous.
Where a recirculation cooker hood is fitted above a gas hob,
please ensure that there is an adequate supply of fresh air into the
room in which it is installed. Please seek the advice of a qualified gas
fitter (e.g. GasSafe in the UK) if necessary.
Warning and Safety instructions
4
The cooker hood can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been
shown how to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the
consequences of incorrect operation.
Safety with children
Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the cooker
hood unless they are constantly supervised.
Children 8 years and older may only use the cooker hood
unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and
recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the cooker
hood unsupervised.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the cooker hood and do
not let them play with it.
Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must be
kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing, children
could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their head and
suffocate.
Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs
of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety
requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this cooker hood can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the cooker hood must match the mains electricity supply in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the cooker hood
Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
The cooker hood must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
Touching electrical components and tampering with electrical and
mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause
operational faults.
Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in the
installation sheet and in the Cleaning and care section of this
booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the
housing be opened.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty
components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from
danger.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.
Warning and Safety instructions

Using at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air
from the room
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood in the
same room or the same area of the house at the same time as
another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room.
Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct
exhaust gases out to the open air through a chimney or extraction
ducting. They include gas, oil, wood and coal-fired boilers and
heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs and
ovens.
The cooker hood draws in air from the kitchen and from
neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of
operation:
- extraction mode,
- recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the
room.
If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating
appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion.
Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction
ducting back into the room.
Risk of death!
Warning and Safety instructions
8
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by
the heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when
the cooker hood and the heater are both operated simultaneously,
an underpressure in the room of 0.04mbar (4Pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot
be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The
cross-section of the inlet openings must enable sufficient
ventilation. 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 should be sought.
If the cooker hood is being operated in recirculation mode,
whereby the air is redirected into the room in which it is installed,
the above restrictions do not apply.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
Correct use
Never use a naked flame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the
danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over a naked flame.
When switched on, the cooker hood could draw flames into the filter.
Fat deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard.
The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to
excessive heat.
– When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any
burners in use are always covered by a pan. Switch the cooking
zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time.
– Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
– Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the
pan.
– Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).
Always switch the cooker hood on when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause
corrosion.
Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
cooker hood.
When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc, do
not leave the pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an open grill
unattended when grilling.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Do not use the cooker hood without the filters in place. This way
you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance
and hindering its smooth operation.
The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat
rising from the hob.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood
has cooled down.
Correct installation
Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to
whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid
fuel stoves.
An insufficient safety distance between the hob and the cooker
hood can result in damage to the cooker hood.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooker or hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the “Installation” section
of this booklet must be maintained, unless the hob manufacturer
states that a greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the cooker
hood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the
cooker hood, select the greater distance.
The distances given in “Installation” must be observed when
fitting the cooker hood.
