26

This hood operates in a very efficient and energy-saving manner. The following will help you to save even more energy when using it: – Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when cooking. If there is insufficient air flow during extraction mode, the hood cannot operate efficiently, causing increased operating noise levels. – Always cook with the lowest possible setting. This produces fewer cooking vapors so that you can use a lower hood power level and therefore benefit from reduced energy consumption. – Check the power level selected on the hood. A lower power level is generally sufficient for the majority of cooking. Only use the booster level when necessary. – When a large volume of cooking vapors are being produced, switch to a high power level in good time. This is more efficient than operating the hood for longer to try to capture cooking vapors that have already been distributed throughout the kitchen. – Make sure that you switch off the hood after use. – Clean or change the filters at regular intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce performance, increase the risk of fire and are unhygienic.

Energy-saving tips

Cleaning and care

Before proceeding with any
maintenance or cleaning task, the ventilation hood must be disconnected from the power supply, see “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
Stainless steel housing
General information
The surfaces and control buttons
are susceptible to scratching and chipping. Observe the following cleaning instructions.

Important information for appliances with stainless steel surfaces Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel. To prevent the surfaces from quickly becoming dirty again, we recommend treating them with a stainless steel care product (available from Miele).
Special instructions for glass surfaces Glass surfaces can be cleaned using
a cleaner specifically for use on glass.

Clean all surfaces and control buttons using warm water and liquid dish soap. Apply with a sponge cloth.
After cleaning, dry the surfaces with a soft cloth.
Avoid the following: – Cleaners containing soda, acid or
chloride, or cleaners containing solvents – Abrasive cleaners such as scouring powder, scouring liquid, abrasive sponges such as pot scourers, or used sponges that still contain residues from abrasive cleaners

28

Cleaning and care

Filter saturation indicator
The ventilation hood registers the length of time it has been operated. Filter saturation indicators show when the filters need to be cleaned or changed by lighting up the grease filter symbol or charcoal filter symbol . You can set the filter saturation indicator to suit the type of cooking you do (see “Changing settings”).
Grease filter
Risk of fire
An oversaturated grease filter is a fire hazard. Clean the grease filter at regular intervals.

The filter saturation indicator reminds you to regularly clean the grease filter by illuminating the grease filter symbol .
Removing the grease filters
When handling the grease filter,
be careful not to drop it. This can result in damage to the filter and the cooktop below. Make sure you hold the filter securely at all times when handling it.
Pull out the canopy.

The re-usable metal grease filter in the appliance removes solid particles from the kitchen vapors (grease, dust, etc.), preventing soiling of the ventilation hood. The grease filter must be cleaned at regular intervals.

A heavily soiled grease filter hinders air extraction and will lead to increased levels of soiling in the ventilation hood and in the kitchen.
Cleaning intervals Accumulated grease solidifies over a longer period of time and makes cleaning more difficult. The grease filter should therefore be cleaned at least every 3 to 4 weeks.

Push the grease filter on the righthand side to the left and unlock it on the left-hand side.
Pull the grease filter down to remove it.
Cleaning the grease filter by hand Clean the filters with a soft nylon
brush in a mild solution of hot water and dish soap. Do not use undiluted dish soap.

29

Cleaning and care

Unsuitable cleaning agents Unsuitable cleaners can cause damage to the filter surfaces if used regularly. Do not use any of the following: – Lime removers – Abrasive powders or abrasive liquids – Aggressive all-purpose cleaners and
degreaser sprays – Oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filter in a dishwasher Place the grease filter upright or
slightly inclined in the lower basket. Ensure the spray arm is not obstructed. Use a commonly available household dishwashing detergent. In a Miele dishwasher use the “Normal” program.
Depending on the detergent used, cleaning the filter in a dishwasher may cause the inside filter surfaces to become discolored. However, this will not affect the functioning of the grease filter in any way.

After cleaning After cleaning, leave the filters on an
absorbent surface to dry. When removing the filter for cleaning,
also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible casing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.
Reinsert the grease filter.

30

Cleaning and care

Resetting the filter saturation indicator for the grease filter Once cleaning is complete, the filter saturation indicator must be reset. While the blower is turned on, touch
the grease filter control for approx. 3 seconds, until only the 1 is flashing. The grease filter symbol goes out.
Replacing the grease filter Regular usage and cleaning can cause the filter surfaces to become worn. If you identify any damage, replace the grease filter. Grease filters are available to order via Miele Customer Service (see end of these operating instructions for contact details) or from your Miele dealer.

OdorFree Charcoal Filter
With recirculation mode, two charcoal filters must be inserted in addition to the grease filter. These are designed to absorb cooking odors. The charcoal filters are fitted in the canopy above the grease filter. Charcoal filters are available to order via the Miele website or from your Miele dealer. The charcoal filters are listed under “Technical data” at the back of this booklet.

31

Cleaning and care

Installing/replacing the charcoal filters The matching frames must be installed in order to use the charcoal filter. Follow the directions on the installation sheet. Remove the grease filter from the
ventilation hood. Remove the charcoal filter packaging.

When to change the OdorFree Charcoal Filter Replace the charcoal filters when they no longer absorb kitchen odors effectively, and at least every 6 months. The filter saturation indicator reminds you to regularly replace the charcoal filters by illuminating the charcoal filter symbol .
Resetting the filter saturation indicator for the charcoal filters After changing the charcoal filters, the filter saturation indicator must be reset. Touch the charcoal filter control for
approx. 3 seconds with the blower switched on until only the indicator light for level 1 is flashing. The charcoal filter symbol will go out.

4 mounting plates for installation in a 23 /” (600 mm) wide cabinet

Installation recommendations
– To achieve optimum vapor extraction, the hood must be centered over the cooktop, not to the side.
– The cooktop should be no wider than the hood. Preferably, it should be narrower for better extraction.
– The mounting area must be easily accessible. The ventilation hood should be easy to reach and disassemble in case a service call is necessary. This should be taken into consideration when planning the position of cabinetry, shelves, ceilings or decorative elements in the vicinity of the ventilation hood.

Air venting
WARNING: 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. Do not vent exhaust air into spaces within walls or ceilings or in attics, crawl spaces or garages. To reduce the risk of fire, only use metal ductwork. Please read and follow the “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” to reduce the risk of personal injury. Follow all local building codes when installing the hood.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible ducting made from approved nonflammable materials for ducting.
To achieve the most efficient air throughput with the lowest noise levels, please note the following: – The diameter of the vent ducting
must not be smaller than the crosssection of the vent collar (see “Appliance dimensions”). This applies in particular when using flat ducting. – The ducting should be as short and straight as possible. – Only use wide radius bends. – The ducting must not be kinked or compressed. – All connections must be strong and airtight.

– If the ducting has flaps, these must be opened whenever the ventilation hood is switched on. Any constriction of the air throughput will reduce extraction performance and increase operating noise.
Ventilation stack
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a 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. Non-return flap Use a non-return flap in the vent
system. A non-return flap ensures that when the ventilation hood is not in operation, the duct is closed to prevent unwanted exchange of room air and outside air. If the exhaust is ducted through an outside wall, a Miele wall vent or roof vent (available as an optional accessory) is recommended. Both of these have a built-in non-return flap. If the on-site vent system does not have a non-return flap, one is supplied with the ventilation hood. The non- return flap is installed in the exhaust socket of the fan.

INSTALLATION

Installation

Condensate If the ducting is to run through cool rooms or ceiling space, for example, the significant variations in temperature between the different areas can cause condensate to form. Insulate the ducting to reduce temperature variations. If the ducting is to be laid horizontally, it must be laid with a downwards sloping gradient of at least ³/” (1 cm) per meter. This is to ensure that condensate cannot drain back into the ventilation hood.

Miele will not accept warranty claims for any functional defects or damage caused by inadequate ducting.
Reducing Collar (optional accessory)

In addition to insulating the ducting, it is advisable to also install a condensate trap for collecting and evaporating any potential condensate. Condensate traps for 5″ (125 mm) or 6″ (150 mm) diameter ducting are available as optional accessories. When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and as closely as possible to the ventilation hood above the exhaust vent. The arrow on the casing indicates the direction of airflow.

If you would like to reduce the environmental impact of your ventilation system by limiting the CFM output the Reducing Collar can be installed. It reduces the air flow to less than 400 CFM. Check local building codes for max. CFM requirements. Push the Reducing Collar on the
exhaust port of the blower. Push the exhaust hose over it. Secure both with a hose clamp.
