Warning and Safety instructions Technical safety ~ Before installation, check the cooker hood for visible signs of damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance is dangerous. ~ Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating). Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from the room Warning - danger of toxic fumes ~ For appliances with an external fan motor fitted (...
Warning and Safety instructions In order to ensure safe operation, and to prevent gases given off by the heating appliances from being drawn back into the room when the cooker hood and the heater are in operation simultaneously, an underpressure of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible in the room. One of the following technical measures may be necessary to ensure safe operation.
Warning and Safety instructions Correct use ~ Never use an open flame beneath the cooker hood. 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 particles drawn into the cooker hood present a fire hazard. ~ 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.
Warning and Safety instructions ~ Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid fuel stoves. ~ All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable material. These can be obtained from the Miele Spare Parts department or from builders' merchants. ~ The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent flue which is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.
Modes of operation The cooker hood works with . . . air recirculation: . . . air extraction: (available as an optional extra with a conversion kit and charcoal filter: see "Technical Data") The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.

Miele|home + dai2385 Con|ctivity + This cooker hood is communication enabled. Communication module XKM 2000 DA a, available as an optional extra, enables the operation of the cooker hood to be automatically controlled by the operating status of a Miele electric hob with onset controls. For communication to take place, the hob must be fitted with communication module XKM 2000 KM b. The hob transmits information about its operating status to the cooker hood via the household power supply (Powerline) c.
Operation Switching on the fan ^ Press the On/Off touch control. The fan runs at power level "II". The indicator lamp will come on. If the cooker hood has been connected to a window contact switch via the Miele Control module DSM 400 then the fan cannot be switched on if the window is shut. The indicator lamp will flash. Selecting a power level ^ Use the "– / +" touch controls to select the power level required.
Operation Run-on option The indicator lamps for fan power levels "I" and "IV" will flash if the automatic switch-off of the Intensive setting is not activated. ^ Press the "+" touch control to activate the automatic switch-off. The indicator lamps for fan power levels "I" and "IV" will now light up constantly. Press the "–" touch control to deactivate the automatic switch-off function.
Operation Switching the lighting on Safety cut-out The hob lighting can be switched on and off independently of the fan. Should the cooker hood be left on, the fan will switch off automatically after 10 hours. The lighting will remain on. ^ Briefly press the lighting touch control to switch on the hob lighting. The indicator lamp will come on. ^ Pressing the On/Off touch control will switch the fan back on again. The lighting will switch on at maximum brightness.
Operation Filter operating hours counter The number of hours the appliance has been in operation is stored in memory. ^ Press the charcoal filter touch control for about 3 seconds. The indicator lamp for the touch control will go out. Reading the filter operating hours counter The indicator lamp for the grease filter touch control will come on after 30 hours of operation. The grease filters must then be cleaned. After the filters have been replaced, the filter operating hours counter must be reset.
Operation Filter operating hours counter You can set the operating hours counter to suit the type of cooking you do. – Select a short time if you roast or fry a lot. – If you use very little fat for cooking, select a longer time. – If you only cook occasionally we recommend that you still select a short time, because grease which has built up gradually over a long period of time will harden on the grease filter and make cleaning more difficult.
Operation Setting and altering the charcoal filter operating hours counter (with recirculation mode) The charcoal filter is needed for recirculation mode. The cooker hood is set at the factory for extraction mode. On delivery, the operating hours counter for the charcoal filter is set to unlimited. For recirculation mode, the operating hours counter needs to be set to the required time: ^ Press the On/Off touch control to switch the fan off.
Cleaning and care Avoid: Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply. Ensure that: – it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug withdrawn, or – the fuse is withdrawn from the fused spur connection unit, or – the mains fuse is withdrawn, or – the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable). – cleaning agents containing soda, acids, chlorides or solvents, – abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
Cleaning and care Controls The controls may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove soiling straight away. Observe the General notes on cleaning earlier in this section. Do not use stainless steel cleaning agents on the controls. Grease filters 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.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the grease filters by hand ^ Clean the filters with a soft nylon brush in a mild solution of hot water and a little washing-up liquid. When putting the grease filters back in position, ensure that the locking clips are facing down towards the hob. Do not use: – cleaning agents containing descaling agents, – powder cleaners, cream cleaners or abrasive all-purpose cleaning agents, – oven sprays.
Cleaning and care Fitting and replacing the charcoal filter If the cooker hood is connected for recirculation, a charcoal filter must be inserted in addition to the grease filters. It is designed to absorb cooking odours. It is fitted in the canopy above the grease filters. New filters can be purchased from your Miele dealer or from the Miele Spare Parts Department. See back cover for contact details, and "Technical data" for the model number of the filter.
Cleaning and care Changing a halogen lamp Before any cleaning or maintenance work, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply. Ensure that – it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or – the fuse is withdrawn from the fused spur connection unit, or – the mains fuse is withdrawn,or – the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable).

Installation Dismantling 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 cooker hood 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.
Electrical connection All electrical work should be undertaken by a suitably qualified and competent person in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous, for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable. Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation or repair work has been carried out.
Operation with Control module DSM 400 The Miele DSM 400 Control module can be used to combine the cooker hood with other components. It enables the following: Connection to a window contact switch If adequate ventilation to the room can only be ensured by having a window open when the cooker hood is in use at the same time as a heating appliance which depends on the air from the same room, then the control module can be used to connect a window contact switch (not supplied) to the appliance.
Operation with Control module DSM 400 Connection to a light switch The control module can be used to switch on the cooker hood lighting and also to dim it, depending on model, via a light switch in the house. Installation The tower needs to be removed before the control module can be fitted to the fan unit. The control module is supplied with its own detailed operating and installation instructions.
Connection for air extraction Important: To avoid the danger of toxic fumes please observe the Warning and Safety instructions. This is especially crucial when using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating appliance which relies on air from the same room. The cooker hood should be installed according to local and national building regulations. Seek approval from the building inspector where necessary.
Connection for air extraction Important: If the exhaust ducting is to run through rooms, ceiling space etc. where there may be great variations in temperature between the different areas, the problem of condensation will need to be addressed. The exhaust ducting will need to be suitably insulated. Cooker hoods designed for use with an external motor (...EXT models) have an integrated condensate trap.
