away from children.
Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs (including
removal of any cover) can cause considerable danger for the user.
Installation must be performed by a suitably qualified and competent
person. 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
continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system. It
is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and
tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the household wiring
system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. Extension leads are a fire
hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
5
Warning and Safety instructions
Temporary or permanent operation with a self-sufficient or non-
mains synchronous energy supply system (e.g. isolated networks,
back-up systems) is possible. A requirement for the operation is that
the energy supply system complies with all current local and national
requirements that apply to stand-alone, solar and/or battery systems.
The protective measures provided in the installation and in this Miele
product must also be assured in their function and operation in
isolated operation or in non-mains synchronous operation, or
replaced with equivalent measures in the installation.
The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the rangehood must match the mains electricity supply in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the rangehood.
Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains
electricity. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
This rangehood must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).
Tampering with electrical connections or components 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.
During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance
must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
- the mains circuit breaker is switched off, or
- it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn from
the socket. Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains
plug to disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity
supply.
The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired by a Miele authorised service technician.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician or suitably qualified and
competent electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
The lamps are a built-in component of the lighting. Replacement
lamps may only be installed by a Miele authorised technician.
Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from
the room
Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the rangehood in the same
room or the same area of the house 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 cooktops and ovens.
The rangehood 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.
This could have potentially fatal consequences. Risk of death!
7
Warning and Safety instructions
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by
a heating appliance from being drawn back into the room, when the
rangehood 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
diameter 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 (registered with an official gas safety body
in accordance with national safety regulations) must be sought.
If the rangehood 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.
Correct use
Open flames are a fire hazard!
Never use an open flame under the rangehood. To avoid the danger of
fire, do not flambé or grill over an open flame. When switched on, the
rangehood could draw flames into the filter. Kitchen grease deposits
could ignite.
The rangehood can become damaged when exposed to excessive
heat.
- When using the rangehood over a gas cooktop, 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 rangehood on when a cooking zone is in use,
otherwise condensation may collect in the rangehood, which could
cause corrosion.
8
Warning and Safety instructions
Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the
rangehood.
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.
Do not use the rangehood 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 rangehood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising
from the cooktop.
Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the rangehood has
cooled down.
Correct installation
To determine whether a rangehood may be operated above your
cooking appliance, please refer to the information provided by the
appliance’s manufacturer.
Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a rangehood over solid
fuel stoves.
An insufficient safety distance between the stovetop and the
rangehood can result in damage to the rangehood.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooktop and
the bottom of the rangehood given in the “Installation” section of
these instructions must be observed, unless the cooktop
manufacturer states that a greater safety distance is required.
If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the rangehood,
and they have different minimum safety distances to the rangehood,
select the greater distance.
The information provided in “Installation” must be observed when
installing the rangehood.
There may be a risk of injury due to protruding parts and sharp
edges.
Wear gloves that offer protection against cuts during assembly.
All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable
material and comply with all relevant national and local building
regulations.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue
which is in current use for exhausting fumes from appliances burning
gas or other fuels. Neither should it be connected to ducting which
ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
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 cleaning is not carried out 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.
In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may
be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the
machine warranty.
Accessories and spare parts
Use only genuine original Miele spare parts. If spare parts or
accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty will be
invalidated, and Miele cannot accept liability.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the
appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a
minimum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation
of your appliance.
10
Sustainability and environmental protection
Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal,
and can normally 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.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags
etc. are disposed of safely and kept out
of the reach of babies and young
children. Danger of suffocation.
Only for Australia: Note for installer:
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) packaging
included. Please retain and dispose of
EPS packaging responsibly. For further
information, please contact Miele.
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. You are also responsible for
deleting any personal data that may be
stored on the appliance prior to
disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children while
being stored prior to disposal.

Components
Grease filter
The re-usable metal grease filter in the
appliance removes solid particles from
the kitchen vapours (grease, dust, etc.),
preventing soiling of the rangehood.
Risk of fire
An oversaturated grease filter is a fire
hazard.
Clean the grease filter at regular
intervals.
A heavily soiled grease filter impairs
the extraction power and will lead to
increased levels of soiling in the
rangehood and in the kitchen.
Charcoal filter
In recirculation mode, a charcoal filter
must be inserted in addition to the
grease filter. The charcoal filter is
designed to absorb cooking odours.
The charcoal filter is available as an
optional accessory.
Cooktop lighting
The cooktop lighting can be switched on
and off independently of the fan.
13
Familiarising yourself with the appliance
Functions
Air extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter and directed outside.
Recirculation mode
(available as an optional extra with a
conversion kit and charcoal filter: see
“Technical Data”)
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filter and then by a charcoal
filter. The cleaned air is then recirculated
back into the kitchen.
Kitchen ventilation
Ensure that the kitchen is well ventilated
when operating the rangehood.
In extraction mode, the efficiency of the
rangehood is improved by the incoming
air.
In recirculation mode, the moisture
produced during cooking remains in the
kitchen. Ventilation helps to dissipate
moisture.
Fan power levels
Select power levels 1 to 3 for light to
heavy cooking vapours, odours or build-
up of heat.
Increase the power level as the level of
vapours, odours or heat increases.
For short periods of cooking food with
intensive vapours, odours or heat, e.g.
when searing meat, select Booster
setting B. The fan will automatically
switch back from the Booster setting
after 5minutes.
Power management
The rangehood is fitted with a Power
management system. The Power
management system is designed to help
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 setting 3 after 5minutes.
- From fan power levels 3, 2 and 1, the
power will be reduced by one level
after 2hours and then in 30-minute
stages until the fan finally switches
off.
- The cooktop lighting will switch off
automatically after 12hours.

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 rangehood and any
resultant odours.
Switching the fan off

16
Energy saving tips
This rangehood 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 rangehood
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
rangehood power level and therefore
benefit from reduced energy
consumption.
- Check the power level selected on the
rangehood. 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 are being produced, switch to
a high power level in good time. This is
more efficient than operating the
rangehood for longer to try to capture
cooking vapours which have already
been distributed throughout the
kitchen.
- Make sure that you switch the
rangehood off after use.
- Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
17
Cleaning and care
Before carrying out any
maintenance or cleaning, the
rangehood must be disconnected
from the electricity supply (see
“Warning and Safety instructions”).
Cleaning the casing
Clean all surfaces and control
elements with a sponge cloth and a
solution of hot water and washing-up
liquid.
Remove the grease filter 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.
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 or cream cleaners and
abrasive sponges, as well as pot
scourers or sponges which have been
used previously with abrasive cleaning
agents
Grease filter
Cleaning interval for grease filter
Clean the grease filter every 3 to
4weeks at the latest. Accumulated
grease solidifies over a longer period of
time and makes cleaning more difficult.
Removing the grease filter
If a filter falls onto the cooktop
below, this can result in damage to
the filter and the cooktop.
Make sure you hold the filter securely
at all times when handling it.
Open the latch for the grease filter
and lower the filter to remove it.
Cleaning the grease filter by hand
Clean the grease filter with a soft
nylon brush in a mild solution of hot
water and a little washing-up liquid.
Do not use concentrated washing-up
liquid.
After cleaning, leave the grease filter
to dry on an absorbent surface before
refitting it.
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
18
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the grease filter in the
dishwasher
Place the grease filter upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket.
Ensure the spray arm is not
obstructed.
Use a standard household cleaning
agent.
Select a programme with a maximum
wash temperature of 65°C.
Important information on cleaning in a
dishwasher
Excessively high temperatures can
render the grease filter unusable (due to
being warped out of shape, for
example). Select a programme 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
discoloured. This will not affect the
functioning of the grease filter in any
way.
Refit the grease filter.
Replacing the grease filter
Regular usage and cleaning can cause
the filter surfaces to become worn or
brittle.
If you notice any damage, replace the
grease filter.
You can obtain the grease filter from
Miele Customer Service (see end of
these operating instructions) or from
the Miele online shop.
NoSmell active charcoal filter
Replacement interval for the charcoal

23
Installation
Installation recommendations
- If positioned too high, extraction will
be inefficient.
- To achieve optimum vapour
extraction, the rangehood must be
centred over the cooktop, not to the
side or behind it.
- The installation area must be easily
accessible. The rangehood 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 rangehood.
24
Installation
Connection for air extraction
Before installation, it is important
to read the information given on the
following pages as well as the
“Appliance dimensions” and the
“Warning and Safety instructions” at
the beginning of this booklet. This is
particularly crucial when using the
rangehood at the same time as a
heating appliance that relies on
oxygen from the same room, which
could result in the build-up of toxic
fumes.
The rangehood should be installed
according to local and national
building regulations. Seek approval
from the building inspector where
necessary.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible
ducting made from approved non-
flammable materials for exhaust
ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air
extraction 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 connection
(see "Appliance dimensions"). This is
particularly applicable when using flat
ducting.
- The exhaust ducting must 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 ducting has flaps, these must be
opened when the rangehood is
switched on.
Any constriction of the airflow will
reduce extraction performance and
increase operating noise.
Vent flue
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a
vent 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.
25
Installation
Non-return flap
Make sure you use a non-return flap
in the exhaust air system.
A non-return flap ensures that when the
rangehood is not in operation, the duct
is closed and no exchange of room and
outside air can take place.
If the exhaust air is ducted through an
outside wall, a Miele wall vent or a
Miele roof vent (available as an optional
accessory) is recommended. These are
fitted with an integrated non-return flap.
If the on-site exhaust air system does
not have a non-return flap, one is
supplied with the rangehood.
The non-return flap is fitted to the fan's
exhaust connection.
Condensed water
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc., condensate
may form in the ducting due to
variations in temperature between the
different areas. To minimise temperature
variations, the exhaust ducting will need
to be suitably insulated.
Where ducting is horizontal, it must be
laid to slope away at at least 1 cm per
metre. The gradient ensures that
condensate cannot drain back into the
rangehood.
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting, we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to
collect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.
Condensate traps are available for
125mm or 150mm ducting.
When installing a condensate trap,
ensure that it is positioned vertically
and, if possible, directly above the
exhaust socket. The arrow on the
housing indicates the direction of
airflow.
A condensate trap can only be fitted in
extraction ducting which is directed
upwards out of the rangehood.
Miele will not accept warranty claims
for any functional defects or damage
caused by inadequate ducting.

Installation
Silencer
To achieve even further reductions in
noise levels, a special silencer (optional
accessory) can be fitted in the ducting
system.
In extraction mode the silencer not only
reduces noise from the fan outside the
house, but also sounds from outside
which reach the kitchen via the vent
ducting (e.g. traffic noise). For this
reason, the silencer must be positioned
as close as possible to the ducting exit
.
In recirculation mode the silencer needs
to be positioned between the exhaust
connection and the exhaust grille.
Please ensure there is adequate
installation space.

Installation
Electrical connection
The rangehood is supplied with a mains
connection cable with moulded plug
ready for connection to a suitable
earthed socket.
If the socket is not easily accessible or if
the appliance is to be hard-wired,
ensure that a suitable means of
disconnection is provided on the
installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the rangehood to multi-
socket adapters or extension cables
can overload the cables.
For safety reasons, do not use an
extension cable or multi-socket
adapter.
All electrical work must be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with
national and local safety regulations.
For safety reasons, we recommend
using a suitable residual current device
(RCD) in the relevant electrical
installation for connecting the
rangehood.
If the mains connection cable is
damaged, it must only be replaced with
a specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from Miele). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a suitably
qualified and competent electrician or a
Miele authorised service technician, in
order to avoid a hazard.
The data plate indicates the nominal
power consumption and the connection
data. Compare this information with the
data of the on-site electrical connection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation with
a self-sufficient or non-mains
synchronous energy supply system (e.g.
isolated networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A requirement for the
operation is that the energy supply
system complies with all current local
and national requirements that apply to
stand-alone, solar and/or battery
systems. The protective measures
provided in the domestic installation
and in this Miele product must also be
assured in their function and operation
in isolated operation or in non-mains
synchronous operation, or replaced with
equivalent measures in the installation.
