Functional description

The ventilation hood works by air

extraction. The air is drawn in and

cleaned by the grease filters and

directed outside.

The hood comes equipped with a

non-return flap. This flap automatically

closes when the hood is turned off so

that no exchange of outside air and

room air can occur. When the hood is

turned on, the air pressure of the

exhaust fan automatically opens the

flap blowing the inside air and cooking

odors outside.

cleaners, scouring pads, steel wool

or caustic (oven) cleaners on the

hood. They will damage the surface.

^ All external surfaces and controls can

be cleaned with warm water and

liquid dish soap applied with a soft

sponge.

^ Wipe dry using a soft cloth.

Do not use too much water when

cleaning the controls. Water could

penetrate the electronics and cause

damage.

^ Glass surfaces can be cleaned using

a glass cleaner.

Avoid:

– cleaning agents containing soda,

acids or chlorides,

– abrasive cleaning agents

e.g. powder or cream cleansers,

– abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers

or sponges which have been

previously used with abrasive

cleaning agents.

These will damage the surface.

Cleaning and Care

Grease filters

Cleaning the grease filters

The reusable metal grease filters

remove solid particles from the vented

kitchen air (grease, dust, etc).

^ - By hand: use a scrub brush in

warm water with a mild detergent.

- In a dishwasher: place the filters

vertically in the lower basket, making

sure that the spray arm is not

blocked. Wash using the "Sani Wash"

or "Normal Plus" programs.

Depending on the detergent,

cleaning the grease filters in a

dishwasher may cause permanent

discoloration of the filter surface.

Performance of the filter will not be

affected by this discoloration.

The grease filters should be cleaned

every 3 - 4 weeks or when the grease

filter indicator lights.

A dirty filter is a fire hazard.

^ After cleaning, the filters can be

placed on a towel to air dry.

^ While the filters are removed, clean

any dirt or grease from the filter

casing to prevent the risk of fire.

When putting the grease filters back

make sure that the locking clips are

visibly facing the cooking surface.

If the filters are incorrectly installed,

insert a small screwdriver into the slit

along its edge to disengage it from the

casing.

^ To remove the grease filters pull the

locking clips, 1, forward. Lower the

filter 45°, 2, unhook it at the rear, 3,

and take it out. Support the grease

filter so that it does not fall onto the

cooktop.

^ After returning the grease filters,

press and hold the grease filter

button for 3 seconds to reset the

timer. The indicator light will go out.

^ If the grease filters are cleaned

before the grease filter timer has

reached its maximum, press the

grease filter button for 6 seconds to

reset the counter to zero.

Cleaning and Care

Changing the light bulb

Before changing the light bulbs,

disconnect the hood from the power

supply by either removing the fuse,

unplugging it, or manually "tripping"

the circuit breaker.

When in use halogen bulbs become

extremely hot, and they can burn

your hands. Do not attempt to

change the bulbs until they have

had sufficient time to cool.

^ To change the halogen bulb first

remove the lamp cover, a.

^ Pull the bulb, b, out of its socket and

replace with a new one.

Do not touch the bulb surface.

Fingerprints or body oils deposited

on the bulb will decrease the life of

the bulb.

Follow the bulb manufacturer’s

instructions.

^ Return the lamp cover, a.

Never use the lighting without the

lamp cover, a, in place. The glass is

specially made to filter harmful light

rays.

Air extraction

Exhaust ducting and connections

,^WARNING

– The ducting should be as short and

straight as possible, and the number

of sharp bends should be minimized.

Danger of toxic fumes.

Gas cooking appliances release

carbon monoxide that can be

harmful or fatal if inhaled.

The exhaust gases extracted by

the hood should be vented

outside of the building only.

– For efficient air extraction, the

diameter of the ductwork should not

be less than 6" (150 mm). Use of flat

ducts also reduces the air extraction

efficiency.

– Noise levels of the hood will increase

if flat ducts or round ducts of less

than 6" (150 mm) in diameter are

used.

Do not terminate the exhaust

ducts in attics, garages,

crawlspaces, etc.

– Use smooth or flexible pipes made

from approved non-flammable

materials for exhaust ducting.

To reduce the risk of fire, only use

metal ductwork.

– Where the ductwork is horizontal, it

must slope away from the hood at

least ¹/₈" per foot (1 cm per meter) to

prevent condensation from dripping

into the appliance.

Please read and follow the

"IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of

personal injury. Follow all local building

codes when installing the hood.

– If the exhaust is ducted through an

outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall

Vent can be used.

Air extraction

Condensate trap

(optional accessory)

If the exhaust is ducted into an inactive

flue, the air must be expelled parallel to

the flow direction of the flue.

In some cases, a condensate trap may

also be required to collect and

evaporate any condensation which may

occur. This optional accessory is

available for ducts 5" (125 mm) and

5 ⁷/₈" (150 mm) in diameter.

Never connect an exhaust hood to

an active chimney, dryer vent, vent

flue, or room venting ductwork.

Seek professional advice before

connecting an exhaust hood vent to

an existing, inactive chimney or vent

flue.

When installing a condensate trap,

ensure that it is positioned vertically

and if possible directly above the

exhaust outlet. The arrow on the casing

shows the venting direction.

Important!

If the ductwork runs through rooms,

ceilings, garages, etc. where

temperature variations exist, it may

need to be insulated to reduce

condensation.
