Functional description  
The ventilation hood works by air  
extraction. The air is drawn in and  
cleaned by the grease filter 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.

or sponges which have been  
previously used with abrasive  
cleaning agents.  
Before cleaning or servicing the  
hood, disconnect it from the power  
supply, see "Important Safety  
Instructions".  
These will damage the surface.  
Cleaning the casing  
The following instructions for cleaning  
"Stainless steel" surfaces and "Stainless  
steel colored controls" should be  
followed in addition to the general  
"Cleaning the casing" instructions.  
Never use abrasive cleaners,  
scouring pads, steel wool or caustic  
(oven) cleaners on the hood. They  
will damage the surface.  
Stainless steel  
^ The exterior surfaces and controls  
can be cleaned with a mild solution  
of warm water and liquid dish soap  
applied with a soft sponge.  
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned  
using a non-abrasive stainless steel  
cleaner.  
^ Wipe dry using a soft cloth.  
To help prevent resoiling, a conditioner  
for stainless steel can also be used.  
Apply sparingly with even pressure.  
Only use a slightly damp sponge  
when cleaning the controls. Water  
could penetrate into the electronics  
and cause damage.

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.  
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.  
– For most 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 vent exhaust air into  
– Use smooth or flexible pipes made  
from approved non-flammable  
materials for exhaust ducting.  
spaces within walls or ceilings or  
in attics, crawl spaces, or garages  
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 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.  
28  
 
Air extraction  
Condensate trap  
optional accessory  
In some cases, a condensate trap may  
be required to collect and evaporate  
any condensation which may develop.  
This optional accessory is available for  
ducts 5" (125 mm) and 6" (150 mm) in  
diameter.  
– If the exhaust is ducted into an  
inactive flue, the air must be expelled  
parallel to the flow direction of the  
flue.  
Never connect an exhaust hood to  
an active chimney, dryer 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.  
Important  
If the ductwork runs through rooms,  
ceilings, garages, etc. where  
temperature variations exist, it may  
need to be insulated to reduce  
condensation.
