entangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it
over their head with the risk of suffocation. Keep packaging material
away from children.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
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
7
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 authorised 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 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
8
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 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, negative pressure 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
9
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, ask a competent building regulations
inspector or qualified gas fitter (if appropriate).
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
10
Correct use
Open flames are a fire hazard.
The use of an open flame under the cooker hood is not permitted. To
avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over an open 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
11
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.
Proper 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 hob and the
bottom of the cooker hood given in the “Installation” section of this
manual must be observed, 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 information provided in “Installation” must be observed when
fixing the ventilation hood.
Components can have sharp edges which may cause injury.
Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut.
Exhaust ducting must be of non-inflammable material. Suitable
material is available from Miele specialist dealers or the Miele Spares
Dept.
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or flue which
is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates
rooms with fireplaces.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct
no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.
Cleaning and care
There is a risk of fire if the cooker hood is not cleaned as
described in these operating instructions.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short
circuit.
Accessories
Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other
manufacturers will invalidate the warranty and Miele cannot accept
liability.
Caring for the environment
13
Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the
appliance being disposed of. Please
ensure that your old appliance poses no
risk to children while being stored prior
to disposal.

Depending on the model of the cooker
hood, the following options are
available:
Extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
Recirculation mode
(recirculation mode cooker hoods
require a conversion kit and charcoal
filter, see “Technical Data”)
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.
Operation
17
Switching the fan on
Switch the fan on as soon as you start
cooking. This is to ensure that vapours
are captured right from the start.
Press the On/Off control .
The fan will switch on at setting 2 and
the symbol and 2 will light up in the
power setting display.
Selecting the power level
For light to heavy cooking vapours and
odours, select from power levels 1 to 3.
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapours and a strong aroma,
e.g. when searing meat, select Booster
settingB.
Select the power level you want by
pressing the or control.
Reducing power down from the
Booster setting
If power management is activated
(default setting), the fan automatically
switches back to level 3 after 5minutes.
Run-on time
It is advisable to run the fan for a few
minutes after cooking has finished.
This helps to remove any lingering
vapours and odours from the air.
It also reduces the risk of residues
accumulating in the cooker hood and
any resultant odours.
Switching the fan off
Press the On/Off control to switch
the fan off.
The symbol will go out.
Switching the hob lighting on/
off
The hob lighting can be switched on
and off independently of the fan.
To do so press the lighting control.

hob lighting is switched on.
Power management
The cooker hood is fitted with a power
management system. Power
management helps to save energy. It
ensures that the fan power level is
reduced automatically and that the
lighting is switched off.
- If the Booster setting has been
selected, the fan will automatically
switch to level 3 after 5minutes.
- From fan power levels 3, 2 or 1, the
power will be reduced by one level
after 2hours and then in 30-minute
stages until the fan finally switches
off.
- The hob lighting will switch off
automatically after 12hours.
Operation
18
Switching Power management on/off
You can deactivate Power
management.
This can result in increased electricity
consumption.
To set this option, both the fan and
the hob lighting must be switched off.
Press the “” and “” controls at the
same time for approx. 10 seconds,
until the 1 lights up.
Then press in turn,
- the lighting control ,
- the “” button and then
- the lighting control again.
If Power management is switched on,
the 1 and B indicators will light up
constantly.
If it is switched off, 1 and B will flash.
Press “” to switch Power
management off.
The 1 and B indicators will flash.
To switch it on, press “”.
The 1 and B indicators will light up
constantly.
Confirm your choice with the On/Off
control .
All the indicator lamps will go out.
If you do not confirm within 4minutes,
the cooker hood will revert to the old
setting.
Safety switch-off
If Power management has been
deactivated, the cooker hood will
switch itself off automatically after
12hours if it has been left on (fan and
hob lighting).
To switch it on again press the On/
Off control or the lighting
control.
Energy saving tips
19
This cooker hood operates very
efficiently and economically. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
- Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when
cooking. In extraction mode, if there
is insufficient air flow the cooker
hood cannot operate efficiently and
this causes increased operating noise
levels.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
cooker hood power level and
therefore benefit from reduced
energy consumption.
- Check the power level selected on
the cooker hood. A lower power level
is generally sufficient for the majority
of cooking. Only use the Booster
setting when necessary.
- When a large volume of cooking
vapours is being produced, switch to
a high power level in good time. This
is more efficient than operating the
cooker hood for longer to try to
capture cooking vapours which have
already been distributed throughout
the kitchen.
- Make sure that you switch the cooker
hood off after use.
- Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
Cleaning and care
20
Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the
cooker hood must be disconnected
from the power supply (see “Warning
and Safety instructions”).
Housing
General information
Unsuitable cleaning agents can
damage the surfaces and control
elements.
Do not use any cleaning agents
containing soda, acid, chloride or
solvent.
Do not use any 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.
Moisture in the cooker hood can
cause damage.
Make sure that water does not get
into the cooker hood.
All external surfaces and control
elements can be cleaned using hot
water with a small amount of
washing-up liquid applied with a well
wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
Important information for appliances
with stainless steel surfaces
This information does not apply to the
control buttons.
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned
with a non-abrasive cleaning agent
designed specifically for use on
stainless steel.
To prevent the surfaces from quickly
becoming dirty again, we recommend
treating them with a stainless steel care
product (available from Miele).
Important information for appliances
with lacquered casing
(Customisation on request)
Minor scratches on the surface are
inevitable when cleaning the casing;
they may be visible depending on the
lighting in the kitchen.
Cleaning and care
21
Important information for the control
elements
If soiling is not removed promptly, it
could cause the control elements to
alter or discolour.
Remove any soiling immediately.
The surface of the control elements
can become damaged if they are
cleaned using stainless steel
cleaning agents.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on the control elements.
Grease filters
Fire hazard
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular
intervals.
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.
The grease filters must be cleaned at
regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air
extraction and will lead to increased
levels of soiling in the cooker hood
and in the kitchen.
Cleaning interval
Accumulated grease solidifies over a
longer period of time and makes
cleaning more difficult. The grease
filters should therefore be cleaned every
3 to 4 weeks.
Removing a grease filter
When handling a grease filter, be
careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the hob below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
To take out a grease filter, release the
locking clip on the filter, lower the
filter approx. 45°, unhook it at the
back and remove it.
Cleaning and care
22
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and a small amount of washing-up
liquid. Do not use “neat” washing up
liquid.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaning agents can cause
damage to the surface of the filters if
used regularly.
Do not use:
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- powder cleaners, cream cleaners
- aggressive multi-purpose cleaning
agents or spray cleaners for grease
- oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filters in the
dishwasher
Place the grease filters upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
Use a commercially available
household dishwasher detergent.
Select a dishwasher programme with
a wash temperature between 50°C
and 65°C.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the filters in a dishwasher
may cause the inside filter surfaces to
become discoloured. This will not
affect the functioning of the grease
filters in any way.
After cleaning
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.
Replace the grease filters, making
sure that the locking clips are facing
down towards the hob.
If a grease filter is inadvertently
replaced upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slit to
disengage the clip.
Cleaning and care
23
Charcoal filter
With recirculation mode, a charcoal
filter must be fitted in addition to the
grease filters. The charcoal filter is
designed to absorb cooking odours.
The charcoal filter is fitted in the canopy
above the grease filters.
Charcoal filters are available to order via
the Miele online shop, the Miele
Customer Service Department (see end
of these operating instructions for
contact details) or from your Miele
dealer. The model designation required
is listed under “Technical data”.
Fitting/replacing a charcoal filter
Remove the grease filter before fitting
or replacing a charcoal filter.
Take the charcoal filter out of its
packaging.
Insert the charcoal filter into the back
of the charcoal filter frame, then push
up into the frame at the front.
Refit the grease filters.
When to change the charcoal filter
Replace the charcoal filter when it no
longer absorbs kitchen odours
effectively.
It should, however, be replaced at
least every 6 months.
Disposing of charcoal filters
Used charcoal filters can be disposed
of with normal household waste.
Cleaning and care
24

Installation recommendations
- When deciding on the safety distance
between the hob and cooker hood,
please note that a distance of
650mm above electric cookers/hobs
may be preferable to give more
working space under the hood.
- 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 cooker hood controls
with ease.
- Please be aware that if positioned too
high, extraction will be inefficient.
- To achieve optimum vapour
extraction, the cooker hood must be
positioned centrally over the hob, not
to the side.
- The hob should be no wider than the
cooker hood, and if possible, it
should be narrower.
- The installation area must be easily
accessible. The cooker hood should
be easily accessible and easy to
dismantle in the event that service is
required. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cupboards, shelves,
ceilings or features in the vicinity of
the cooker hood.

Connection for air extraction
If the cooker hood is used at the
same time as a heating appliance
that relies on oxygen from the same
room, there is a risk in certain
circumstances of toxic fumes
building up.
It is essential that the “Warning and
Safety” instructions are observed.
The cooker hood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
exhaust ducting made from
approved non-flammable materials
for exhaust ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air
throughput with the lowest noise levels,
please note the following:
- The diameter of the exhaust ducting
must not be smaller than the cross-
section of the exhaust duct (see
“Appliance dimensions”). This applies
in particular when using flat ducting.
- The exhaust ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
- Only use wide radius bends.
- The exhaust ducting must not be
kinked or compressed.
- All connections must be strong and
airtight.
- If the exhaust ducting has flaps,
these must be opened whenever the
cooker hood is switched on.
Any constriction of the air throughput
will reduce extraction performance
and increase operating noise.
Flue
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a
flue, the ducting must be directed in the
flow direction of the flue.
If the flue is used by several ventilation
units, the cross-section of the flue must
be large enough.
Non-return flap
Use a non-return flap in the exhaust
system.
A non-return flap ensures that when the
cooker hood is not in operation, the
duct is closed to prevent unwanted
exchange of room air and outside air.
If the exhaust is ducted through an
outside wall, a Miele wall vent or roof
vent (available as an optional
accessory) is recommended. Both of
these have a built-in non-return flap.
If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, you can
purchase one as an optional accessory.
Condensation
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
cool rooms or ceiling space, for
example, the significant variations in
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
32
temperature between the different areas
can cause condensation to form.
Insulate the exhaust ducting to reduce
temperature variations.
If the exhaust ducting is to be laid
horizontally, it must be laid with a
downwards sloping gradient of at least
1cm per meter. This is to ensure that
condensation cannot drain back into
the cooker hood.
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, it is advisable to also install a
condensate trap for collecting and
evaporating any potential condensation.
Condensate traps for 125mm or
150mm diameter exhaust ducting are
available as optional accessories.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and as closely as possible to the cooker
hood above the exhaust connection.
The arrow on the casing indicates the
direction of airflow.
Miele shall not accept warranty claims
for any functional defects or damage
caused by inadequate exhaust
ducting.
Silencer
To reduce noise levels even further, a
silencer (optional accessory) can be
installed in the exhaust ducting.
In extraction mode, the silencer not only
reduces noise from the fan outside the
house, but also sounds originating
outside reaching the kitchen through
the exhaust ducting (e.g. traffic noise).
For this reason, the silencer must be
positioned as close as possible to the
ducting exit.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
33
In recirculation mode, the silencer
needs to be positioned between the
exhaust socket and the directional
unit. Check that there is sufficient
space.
Electrical connection
Refer to the notes in “Electrical
connection” and “Warnings and
safety notes” before connecting to
the power supply.
The connection data (voltage,
frequency) on the data plate must
match the data of the mains power
supply. The position of the data plate is
explained in the “Service” chapter.
The cooker hood is equipped with a
power cable and a safety plug.
The connection must be made via a
socket which remains accessible after
the cooker hood has been installed. If
the socket is no longer accessible after
installation or if you are using a hard-
wired connection, there must be a
suitable means of disconnection for all
poles in the household electrical system
which meets the requirements of
overvoltage category III.
Safety can be increased by fitting the
appliance with a residual current
device.
Only qualified electricians are permitted
to carry out work on the household
electrical system.
This appliance must be earthed.
