automatic mode (see “Before using for
the first time – Setting up
Con@ctivity”).
If you wish to operate the ventilation
hood manually; see “Operation
(Manual mode) – Cooking without
Con@ctivity”.
Cooking with Con@ctivity
(Automatic mode)
Turn on a burner to the desired power
setting.
The overhead lighting will come on.
After a few seconds, the blower will
come on, briefly operating at power
level 2 before immediately switching to
level 1.
The ventilation hood selects the power
level automatically during cooking.
This level is determined by the total
output of the cooktop, i.e., the number
of burners in operation and the power
levels selected.
If you select a higher power level on the
cooktop or switch on multiple burners,
the ventilation hood will switch to a
higher blower level.
If you select a lower power level on the
cooktop or turn off a burner, the
ventilation hood will accordingly switch
to a lower blower level.
Examples for power levels 1 to B
Reaction time
Changing the power setting on the
cooktop does not lead to an immediate
increase or decrease in cooking vapors.
For this reason, the hood reacts with a
slight delay.
Delays can also result from the fact that
the cooktop transmits the information to
the hood in intervals.
The reaction time can vary from a few
seconds to a couple of minutes.
Operation (Automatic mode)
28
Cooking process
For example, you switch on a burner
at the highest power level to heat
cookware for frying. After approx.
10seconds to 4minutes, you then
reduce the power level (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.
Switching off
Turn off all burners.
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.
- From the Booster setting, the blower
switches immediately to level3.
- From level 3, it will switch to level 2
after approx. 1minute.
- From level 2, it will switch to level 1
after 2minutes.
- After 2minutes at level 1, the blower
automatically turns off.
- After another 30seconds, the
overhead lighting turns off.
The cooking process is then finished.
Operation (Automatic mode)
29
Temporarily exiting Automatic
mode
To temporarily exit Automatic mode
when cooking:
Manually select a different blower
level; or
Manually turn the ventilation hood off;
or
Activate the delayed shutdown
function on the ventilation hood.
The blower will switch itself off after
the selected run-on time, and the
lighting will remain on.
The ventilation hood functions are now
operated manually (see “Operation
(Manual mode)”).
Resuming Automatic mode
The ventilation hood resumes
Automatic mode:

35
Adjusting the height of the
canopy
The height adjustment feature on the
canopy can be used to:
- adapt the height of the hood to suit
the installation conditions.
- adjust the working area underneath
the hood to the height of the user.
- maximize vapor extraction by
lowering the canopy during
particularly intensive cooking.
- create more working space above the
cooktop by raising the canopy when
required.
The canopy can be raised or lowered
by pressing the controls briefly.
Pressing one of the controls again
stops the canopy.

Energy-saving tips
36
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
37
Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the
ventilation hood must be
disconnected from the power supply,
see “IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS”.
Stainless steel 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 ventilation hood
can cause damage.
Make sure that water does not get
into the ventilation hood.
Clean all surfaces and control buttons
using a small amount of warm water
and liquid dish soap. Apply with a
sponge 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
(Customization 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
38
Important information for the
controls
If soiling is not removed promptly, it
could cause the control elements to
alter or discolor.
Remove 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
Risk of fire
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
vapors, preventing soiling of the
ventilation 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 ventilation hood
and in the kitchen.
Cleaning intervals
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.
The filter saturation indicator reminds
you to regularly clean the grease filters
by illuminating the grease filter
symbol.
You can adjust the interval for the filter
saturation indicator to match your
cooking habits (see “Operation
(Automatic and Manual modes)”).
Cleaning and care
39
Removing the grease filters
When handling the grease filter,
be careful not to drop it.
This can result in damage to the filter
and the cooktop below.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
To remove a grease filter, release the
locking clip. Then, open the filter to a
45° angle, unhook it, and remove it
from the hood.
Cleaning the grease filters by hand
Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water
and dish soap. Do not use undiluted
dish soap.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaners can cause damage
to the filter surfaces if used regularly.
Do not use any of the following:
- Lime removers
- Abrasive powders or abrasive liquids
- Aggressive all-purpose cleaners and
degreaser sprays
- Oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filters in a
dishwasher
Place the grease filters upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
Use a commonly available household
dishwashing detergent.
In a Miele dishwasher use the
“Normal” program.
Depending on the detergent used,
cleaning the filters in a dishwasher
may cause the inside filter surfaces to
become discolored. However, this will
not affect the functioning of the grease
filters in any way.
Cleaning and care
40
After cleaning
After cleaning, leave the filters on an
absorbent surface to dry.
When removing the filters for
cleaning, also clean off any
accessible oil or fat buildup from the
housing. Doing so will prevent a fire
hazard.
Reinsert the grease filters. When
inserting the grease filters, make sure
that the locking clip is facing
outward.
If a grease filter is inadvertently fitted
upside down, insert a small
screwdriver blade into the slit to
disengage the clip.
Resetting the filter saturation
indicator for the grease filters
Once cleaning is complete, the filter
saturation indicator must be reset.
While the blower is turned on, press
the filter saturation indicator for
approx. 3seconds until 1 is the only
indicator flashing.
The grease filter symbol goes out.
When cleaning the grease filters before
the full operating time has elapsed:
Press the filter saturation
indicator for approx. 6seconds
until 1 is the only indicator flashing.
Replacing the grease filter
Regular usage and cleaning can cause
the filter surfaces to become worn.
If you identify any damage, replace the
grease filters.
Grease filters are available to order via
Miele Customer Service (see end of
these operating instructions for contact
details) or from your Miele dealer.

Installation recommendations
- When selecting an installation height,
always take the user height into
consideration. Users should have
ample space to work comfortably on
the cooktop and reach the ventilation
hood controls with ease.
- Please note that the greater the
distance from the cooktop, the less
effective the hood is at drawing in the
cooking vapors.
- To achieve optimum vapor extraction,
the ventilation system must be
centered over the cooktop, not to the
side or behind.
- The cooktop should be no wider than
the hood. Preferably, it should be
narrower for better extraction.
- The mounting area must be easily
accessible. The ventilation hood
should be easy to reach and
disassemble in case a service call is
necessary. This should be taken into
consideration when planning the
position of cabinetry, shelves,
ceilings or decorative elements in the
vicinity of the ventilation hood.
Structural support
The hood must be attached to rigid
structural framing that is supported
in its entirety by the ceiling joists, or
to the ceiling joists directly. Do not
attach the plate directly to the ceiling
with anchors, toggle bolts, etc.
Removing the protective film
The housing components are covered
by a protective film to prevent them
from damage during transport.
Please remove this film before
installing the housing components. It
can be peeled off easily without any
additional tools.

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.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
54
- 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
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.
The ventilation hood has a built-in non-
return flap.
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.
Installation

55
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.
