Components
Grease filters and panel
The edge extraction panel and the re-
usable metal grease filters in the
appliance remove solid particles
(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen
vapors, preventing soiling of the
ventilation hood.
Risk of fire
Oversaturated grease filters are a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular
intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder the
extraction power and will lead to
increased levels of soiling in the
ventilation hood and in the kitchen.
Charcoal filter
With recirculation mode and Plug&Play
recirculation mode, a charcoal filter
must be installed in addition to the
grease filters. This filter is designed to
absorb cooking odors.
The charcoal filter is available as an
optional accessory. It can be reactivated
at the end of its operating time.
Overhead lighting
The overhead lighting can be turned on
and off separately from the blower.
Familiarization
15
Functions
Extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filters and directed outside.
Recirculation mode
(A charcoal filter is required. Please
purchase separately. See “Technical
data”.)
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by a charcoal
filter. The air is then circulated back into
the kitchen.
Plug&Play recirculation mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filters and then by a charcoal
filter. Without an air duct through the
ceiling, the air is then circulated back
into the kitchen. Please follow the
instructions in “Installation”.
Kitchen ventilation
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated
when operating the ventilation hood.
In vented mode, the efficiency of the
ventilation hood is improved by the
incoming air.
In recirculation mode, the moisture
produced during cooking remains in the
kitchen. Ventilation helps to dissipate
moisture.
Blower power levels
Select power levels 1 to 3 for light to
heavy cooking vapors, odors, or heat.
Increase the power level as the level of
vapors, odors, or heat increases.
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapors, odors, or heat, e.g.,
when searing meat, select Booster level
B. The blower will automatically switch
back from the Booster level after
5minutes.
Delayed shutdown function
The delayed shutdown function enables
the blower to continue running for a pre-
determined time before switching itself
off automatically.
This helps to remove any lingering
vapors and odors from the air after
cooking. It also reduces the risk of
residues accumulating in the ventilation
hood and any resulting odors.
Operating hours counter
The ventilation hood registers the length
of time for which it has been operated.
When the grease filter symbol lights
up, the grease filters must be cleaned.
When the charcoal filter symbol
lights up, the charcoal filter must be
replaced or reactivated (if suitable for
reactivating).
You can set the operating hours counter
intervals to suit the type of cooking you
do.
Deactivate the operating hours counter
for the charcoal filter if you are operating
the ventilation hood in vented mode.
Familiarization
16
Miele@home
You can connect the ventilation hood to
your home Wi-Fi network and operate it
using the Miele app on your mobile
device.
If your Miele cooktop is also connected
to your Wi-Fi network, the Con@ctivity
function will be activated automatically.
Con@ctivity
With the Con@ctivity function, the
ventilation hood is automatically
controlled in conjunction with the
cooktop. The ventilation hood and Miele
cooktop must be connected to the
home Wi-Fi network or have a direct
Wi-Fi connection.
The ventilation hood can also be
operated manually at any time during
automatic operation.
Power management
The ventilation hood is equipped with a
power management system. Power
management helps to save energy. It
ensures that the blower power level is
reduced automatically and that the
lighting is switched off.
- If the booster level is selected, the
blower automatically switches to level
3 after 5 minutes.
- If the blower is set to level 3, 2, or 1, it
switches back one blower setting
after 2 hours and then in 30-minute
intervals until the blower eventually
switches off.
- The overhead lighting will switch off
automatically after 12hours.

Operation (automatic)
21
Cooking with Con@ctivity over
an electric cooktop
Switch on a cooking zone at any
power level.
The overhead lighting will come on.
After a few seconds, the blower will
come on, briefly operating at power
level 2 before switching to level 1.
The ventilation hood selects the
required blower power level
automatically during cooking. The power
level selected by the ventilation hood
depends on the number of cooking
zones being used and their power
levels.
The ventilation hood responds with a
delay. This takes into account the fact
that changing the power level at the
cooktop does not increase or decrease
the cooking vapors straight away.
Examples for blower levels 1 to B
Switch off all cooking zones after
cooking.
Over the next few minutes, the
ventilation hood blower setting will
decrease one level at a time until the
hood eventually turns off.
This helps to neutralize any lingering
vapors and odors in the air.
After another 30seconds, the overhead
lighting turns off.
Frying with Con@ctivity
For example, you switch on a cooking
zone at the highest power level to
heat cookware for frying. You reduce
the power level after approx.
10seconds to 4minutes (60seconds
to 5minutes for a HiLight cooktop).
The ventilation hood recognizes a
cooking process.
The ventilation hood turns itself on and
when the cooktop power level has been
reduced, the ventilation hood switches
to power level 3 and remains at that
level for approx. 5minutes.
After this, the blower level is once again
determined by the Con@ctivity
function.
You can also manually select a different
blower level before then.
Cooking with Con@ctivity over
a gas cooktop
Switch on a burner at any power level.
The overhead lighting will come on.
After a few seconds, the blower will
come on at power level 2.
Regardless of the selected cooking
level, the blower remains at power level
2.
Switch off all burners after cooking.
The delayed shutdown function is
activated. The 5 on the delayed
shutdown control will light up.
After 5minutes, the blower and the
overhead lighting will switch off.
This helps to neutralize any lingering
vapors and odors in the air.

Energy-saving tips
26
This hood operates in a very efficient
and energy-saving manner. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
- Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when
cooking. If there is insufficient air flow
during extraction mode, the hood
cannot operate efficiently, causing
increased operating noise levels.
- Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapors so that you can use a lower
hood power level and therefore
benefit from reduced energy
consumption.
- Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
- Use the Con@ctivity function. The
ventilation hood will switch on and off
automatically. The ventilation hood
will select the optimum power level
for the cooking you are doing, which
ensures low energy consumption.
- If you are operating the ventilation
hood manually, please note the
following:
– Check the power level selected on
the ventilation hood. A low power
level is usually sufficient. Only use
the Booster setting when
necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapors are being produced, switch
to a high power level in good time.
This is more efficient than
operating the hood for longer to try
to capture cooking vapors that
have already been distributed
throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch off the
hood after use.
If cooking vapors and odors still
need to be removed from the
kitchen air after cooking, use the
delayed shutdown function. The
blower will switch off automatically
after the selected delayed
shutdown time.
Cleaning and care
27
Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the
ventilation hood must be
disconnected from the power supply,
see “IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS”.
When cleaning the ventilation
hood, please note the following:
Use a stable ladder.
Make sure that you have a secure
footing on the ladder.
Do not lean over the cooktop.
Do not stand on the countertop or
the cooktop.
Cleaning the casing
Clean all surfaces and control
elements with a sponge cloth and a
solution of warm water and liquid dish
soap.
Remove the grease filters and clean
any grease residues from the
accessible parts of the casing. Doing
so will prevent a fire hazard.
After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry
using a soft cloth.
In addition, stainless steel surfaces
can be cleaned using a non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner (not suitable
for the controls).
To prevent the surfaces from quickly
becoming dirty again, it is
recommended to treat them with a
stainless steel care product (available
from Miele).
Important information on
cleaning the casing
Unsuitable cleaning agents can damage
the surfaces.
Do not use any of the following cleaning
agents:
- cleaning agents containing soda,
acids, chlorides, or solvents
- abrasive cleaning agents, e.g., powder
cleaners, cream cleaners, and
abrasive sponges, as well as pot
scourers or sponges which have been
used previously with abrasive cleaning
agents
Minor scratches on the surface are
inevitable when cleaning colored parts
of the casing; they may be visible
depending on the lighting in the kitchen.
Grease filters and edge
extraction panel
Cleaning interval for grease filters and
panel
After a preset operating time, the grease
filter symbol will light up to remind
you to clean the grease filters and the
panel.
Clean the grease filters and the panel
every 3 to 4weeks at the latest, even if
the grease filter symbol has not lit up
yet. Accumulated grease solidifies over
a longer period of time and makes
cleaning more difficult.
Cleaning and care
28
Condensation on the panel
Condensation forms on the panel during
cooking and evaporates once cooking is
complete. Wait approximately 2hours
after finishing cooking before removing
the panel. This will allow time for the
condensation to evaporate and avoid
dripping water.
Removing the panel and grease filters
If the panel or a grease filter falls
down, this can result in damage.
Make sure you hold the panel and
filters securely at all times when
handling them.
Pull the front edge of the panel down
out of the locking clip and lower it.
Push the panel slightly to the right,
then remove it by pulling it out to the
rear.
Release the locking clip on the grease
filter and lower the filter by approx.
45°. Unhook the grease filter and
remove it.

For cleaning purposes, follow the
instructions provided under “Cleaning
the casing”.
Cleaning and care
29
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the grease filters with a soft
nylon brush in a mild solution of hot
water and a little liquid dish soap. Do
not use concentrated dish soap.
After cleaning, place the filters on a
towel to air dry.
Important information on cleaning by
hand
Unsuitable cleaning agents may damage
the filter surfaces if used regularly.
Do not use any of the following cleaning
agents:
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- powder cleaners and cream cleaners
- aggressive all-purpose cleaners and
degreasing sprays
- 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 standard household cleaning
agent.
Select a program with a maximum
wash temperature of 150°F (65°C).
Important information on cleaning in a
dishwasher
Excessively high temperatures can
render the grease filters unusable (due
to being warped out of shape, for
example). Select a program that does
not exceed the recommended
temperature.
Also follow the information provided in
the operating instructions for the
dishwasher.
Depending on the cleaning agent used,
the internal filter surfaces may become
discolored. However, this will not affect
the functioning of the grease filters in
any way.
Inserting the grease filters
Insert the grease filters. When
inserting the grease filters, make sure
that the locking clip is facing outward.
If the grease filters were inadvertently
inserted upside down, insert a small

Installation notes
- A minimum distance of 27 ⁹/₁₆"
(700mm) and a maximum distance of
51 ³/₁₆" (1,300mm) is recommended
between the cooktop and the
ventilation hood.
Please be aware that if positioned too
high, vapor extraction will be
inefficient.
- To achieve optimum vapor extraction,
the ventilation hood must be centered
over the cooktop, not to the side or
behind it.
- If the ventilation hood is being
installed in a suspended ceiling, the
installation surface all around the
ventilation hood must be at least 12"
(300mm) larger than the ventilation
hood itself.
- As far as possible, the cooktop should
be narrower than the ventilation hood.
At a maximum, the cooktop should be
the same width.
- The ventilation hood must also be
freely accessible and located such
that it can be dismantled in the event
of future service requirements. This
should be taken into consideration
when planning the position of
cupboards, shelves, ceilings, or
decorative features in the vicinity of
the ventilation hood.
- The ventilation hood is fastened in the
cut-out using clamps. A solid
installation surface, e.g., made of
wood, is required. Make sure that the
structure can support the load.
Around the clamps, components such
as supports and ducting must be at
least 1" (25mm) from the cut-out.
- If you install the appliance in a place
that is used on a daily basis, e.g., in a
cabinet, the top of the appliance must
not be accessible. Close the
installation space in the cabinet, e.g.,
with additional walls and shelves.
Plug&Play mode
- The air must be able to circulate freely
into the ceiling. Components in the
ceiling must be at least 12" (300mm)
away from the exhaust ducting.
- Ensure sufficient ventilation of the
ceiling area, e.g., through exhaust
grilles, gaps, or shadow gaps. The
cross-section of the openings must be
at least 600cm² in total.
- The ceiling and adjacent walls that
come into contact with the exhaust air
must not exceed a heat transfer
coefficient of 0.5W/(m²K).
- The electronic for vapor extraction
must be switched to Plug&Play mode;
see “Commissioning”, “Activating/
Deactivating Plug&Play”.
Installation
39
Air venting
WARNING: Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release
carbon monoxide that can be harmful
or fatal if inhaled.
To reduce the risk of fire and to
properly exhaust air, the exhaust
gases extracted by the hood should
be vented outside of the building
only.
Do not vent exhaust air into spaces
within walls or ceilings or in attics,
crawl spaces or garages.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal ductwork.
Please read and follow the
“IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS” to reduce the risk
of personal injury. Follow all local
building codes when installing the
hood.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
ducting made from approved non-
flammable materials for ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air
throughput with the lowest noise levels,
please note the following:
- The diameter of the vent ducting must
not be smaller than the cross-section
of the vent collar (see “Appliance
dimensions”). This applies in
particular when using flat ducting.
- The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible.
- Only use wide radius bends.
- The ducting must not be kinked or
compressed.
- All connections must be strong and
airtight.
- If the ducting has flaps, these must be
opened whenever the ventilation hood
is switched on.
Any constriction of the air throughput
will reduce extraction performance
and increase operating noise.
Ventilation stack
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 vent
system.
A non-return flap ensures that when the
ventilation 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 vent system does not have
a non-return flap, one is supplied with
the ventilation hood.
The non-return flap is installed in the
exhaust socket of the fan.
Installation
40
Condensate
If the ducting is to run through cool
rooms or ceiling space, for example, the
significant variations in temperature
between the different areas can cause
condensate to form. Insulate the
ducting to reduce temperature
variations.
If the ducting is to be laid horizontally, it
must be laid with a downwards sloping
gradient of at least ³/₈" (1cm) per
meter. This is to ensure that condensate
cannot drain back into the ventilation
hood.
Miele will not accept warranty claims
for any functional defects or damage
caused by inadequate ducting.
Reducing Collar
(optional accessory)
If you would like to reduce the
environmental impact of your ventilation
system by limiting the CFM output the
Reducing Collar can be installed. It
reduces the air flow to less than
400CFM. Check local building codes
for max. CFM requirements.
Push the Reducing Collar on the
exhaust port of the blower.
Push the exhaust hose over it.
Secure both with a hose clamp.
