Warning and Safety instructions Using at the same time as other heating appliances that depend on the air from the room Warning - danger of toxic fumes Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood at the same time and in the same room or area of the house as another heating appliance which depends on the air in the room.
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 in the room of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible.
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 deposits could ignite, presenting a fire hazard. The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat. – When using the cooker hood over a gas hob, ensure that any burners in use are always covered by a pan.
Warning and Safety instructions Correct installation Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob. Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid fuel stoves. Insufficient distance between the cooker or hob and the cooker hood can result in damage to the hood.
Warning and Safety instructions Accessories Only use genuine original Miele accessories with this appliance. Using accessories from other manufacturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.
Caring for the environment Disposal of the packing material The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should 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.
Modes of operation Depending on the model of the cooker hood, the following options are available: Operation with an external motor (...EXT model cooker hoods) Air extraction The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside. Non-return flap The non-return flap is designed to prevent the exchange of room and outside air taking place. The flap is closed when the cooker hood is switched off.
Modes of operation Con@ctivity 2.0 function Automatic control The cooker hood has a communication facility which enables the automatic operation of the cooker hood depending on the operational state of the hob. The hob transmits information about its operational status via a radio signal to the cooker hood. – When the hob is switched on, the hob lighting comes on independently and then after a short time the fan also comes on.

Operation (Automatic mode) When Con@ctivity 2.0 is activated, the cooker hood always works in automatic mode (see "Activating Con@ctivity 2.0"). To operate the cooker hood manually, see "Cooking without Con@ctivity 2.0". Cooking with Con@ctivity 2.0 (Automatic mode) Switch a cooking zone on at the power level you want. The cooker hood lighting will come on. After a few seconds the fan will come on, first at power level 2, then it will switch immediately to power level 1.
Operation (Automatic mode) Cooking process Switching off If for example you switch on a cooking zone at the highest power level to heat a pan for frying and reduce the power level after approx. 60 to 90 seconds*, a cooking process is recognised (*60 seconds to 5 minutes for a HiLight hob). Switch off all cooking zones. The cooker hood switches itself on and when the hob power level has been reduced, the hood switches to power level 3 and remains at that level for approx. 5 minutes.
Operation (Automatic mode) Leaving automatic mode temporarily To leave automatic mode temporarily during cooking: Manually select a different power level, or Manually switch the cooker hood off, or Activate the run-on option on the cooker hood. The fan will switch off after the selected time and the lighting remains switched on. The cooker hood can now be operated manually (see "Cooking without Con@ctivity 2.0").
Operation (Manual mode) Cooking without Con@ctivity 2.0 (Manual mode) The cooker hood can be operated manually if: – Con@ctivity 2.0 is not activated. – You have temporarily deactivated Con@ctivity 2.0 (see "Leaving automatic mode temporarily"). Switching the fan on Press the On/Off control . The fan will switch on at level 2. The symbol and 2 will light up in the power level display.
Operation (Manual mode) Power management The cooker hood features a power management system for switching off the lighting and reducing the fan power level automatically. – If the Intensive setting has been selected the cooker hood will automatically switch down to power level 3 after 5 minutes. – From levels 3, 2 or 1 the power will be reduced by one level after 2 hours and then in 30 minutes stages until the fan finally switches off. – The hob lighting will switch off automatically after 12 hours.
Operation (Automatic and Manual modes) Operating hours counter The number of hours the appliance has been in operation is stored in memory. When the Grease filter symbol , lights up, the operating hours counter is signalling that the filters need to be cleaned or changed. Further information about cleaning and changing the filters and resetting the operating hours counter can be found under "Cleaning and care".
Operation (Automatic and Manual modes) Reading the filter operating hours counter To check the percentage of time set already used Press the On/Off control to switch the fan on. Press and hold the operating hours control . The grease filter symbol lights up. One or more of the power level indicators will flash. The number of fan power level indicators flashing shows the percentage of the operating time which has already been used up. 1 ...................................................
Cleaning and care Housing General information The surfaces and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion. Please observe the following cleaning instructions. All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned using hot water with a small amount of washing-up liquid applied with a well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth. Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate into the electronics and cause damage. After cleaning, wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.
Cleaning and care Cleaning interval Cleaning the grease filters by hand The grease filters should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3 - 4 weeks) to avoid a build-up of grease. Clean the filters with a soft nylon brush in a mild solution of hot water and a small amount of washing-up liquid. Do not use "neat" washing up liquid. Clean them immediately if the Grease filter operating hours symbol lights up.
Cleaning and care After cleaning After cleaning, leave the filters to dry on an absorbent surface before replacing them. Press the operating hours control for approx. 6 seconds, until only the 1 is flashing. When removing the filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire. Replace the grease filters, making sure that the locking clips are facing down towards the hob.

Installation Installation recommendations – When deciding on the safety distance between the hob and cooker hood, please note that a distance of 650 mm above electric cookers/hobs may be preferable to give more working space under the hood. Drilling diagram for wall mounting Please follow the directions given in the installation instructions supplied for drilling. – Account should also be taken of the height of the person who will be using the hood most often.
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 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. It is essential that the "Warning and Safety" instructions are observed.
Connection for air extraction will need to be addressed. The exhaust ducting will need to be suitably insulated. Silencer Condensate trap To achieve even further reductions in noise levels, a special silencer (optional accessory) can be fitted in the ducting system. Air extraction 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 125 mm or 150 mm ducting.
Connection for air extraction Air extraction with external motor To minimise noise from the motor in the kitchen, the silencer should be positioned in front of the external motor if possible, or, if the ducting is long, above the exhaust connection inside the hood . In the case of an external motor located inside the house, fitting a silencer behind the external motor reduces the noise of the motor outside the house.
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.
