Technical safety

• Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

• A damaged appliance can be dangerous. Check it for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.

• The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

• Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system complies with the specifications of EN 50160 or an equivalent standard.
  The function and operation of the protective measures provided in the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described, for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001–2 ISO 45001.

• The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of the cooker hood must match the mains electricity supply in order to avoid the risk of damage to the cooker hood Compare this before connecting the appliance to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

• Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

• EXT/EXTA model cooker hoods are connected to their external motor using a special connection cable and plug connectors. These appliances may only be combined with a Miele external motor.

• For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.

• The cooker hood must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

• Touching electrical components and tampering with electrical and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults.

• If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele authorised technician to protect the user from danger.

• During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply.

Using at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room

Danger of toxic fumes!
Great care should be taken when using the cooker hood in the same room or the same area of the house at the same time as another heating appliance that depends on the air from the room.
Such heating appliances draw in air from the room and duct exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting. They include gas, oil, wood and coal- fired boilers and heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs and ovens. The cooker hood draws in air from the kitchen and from neighbouring rooms. This applies to the following modes of operation:
– extraction mode
– extraction mode with an external motor
– recirculation mode with a recirculation box installed outside the room
If there is insufficient air, negative pressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of oxygen. This impairs combustion. Harmful gases could be drawn from the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room. Risk of death!
In order to ensure safe operation and to prevent gases given off by the heating appliance from being drawn back into the room when the cooker hood and the heater are both operated simultaneously, an underpressure in the room of 0.04 mbar (4 Pa) is the maximum permissible.
Sufficient ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which cannot be blocked, e.g. in windows, doors and outside wall vents. The cross-section of the inlet openings must enable sufficient ventilation. A ventilation brick alone is not generally sufficient to ensure safe ventilation. The overall ventilation condition of the dwelling must be taken into account. If in any doubt, seek the advice of a competent building regulations inspector or qualified gas fitter (GasSafe in the UK).
If the cooker hood is being operated in recirculation mode, whereby the air is redirected into the room in which it is installed, the above restrictions do not apply.
Correct use

• Open flames are a fire hazard. The use of an open flame under the cooker hood is not permitted. 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. Switch the cooking zone off when a pan is removed, even for a short time.
  – Select a pan which is suitable for the size of the burner.
  – Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.
  – Avoid overheating the pan (e.g. when cooking with a wok).

• Always switch the cooker hood on when a cooking zone is in use, otherwise condensation may collect in the hood, which could cause corrosion.

• Overheated oil and fat can ignite, causing fire damage to the cooker hood.
  When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers, etc, do not leave the pans unattended. Similarly, never leave an open grill unattended when grilling.

• Do not use the cooker hood without the filters in place. This way you will avoid the risk of grease and dirt getting into the appliance and hindering its smooth operation.

• The cooker hood can get very hot during cooking due to heat rising from the hob.
  Do not touch the housing or the grease filters until the cooker hood has cooled down.

Proper installation

• To determine whether a cooker hood may be operated above your cooking appliance, please refer to the information provided by the appliance’s manufacturer.

• Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid fuel stoves.

• An insufficient safety distance between the hob and the cooker hood can result in damage to the cooker hood.
  The minimum safety distances between the top of the hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the “Installation” section of this manual must be observed, unless the hob manufacturer states that a greater safety distance is required.
  If more than one cooking appliance is fitted beneath the cooker hood, and they have different minimum safety distances to the cooker hood, select the greater distance.

• The information provided in “Installation” must be observed when fixing the ventilation hood.

• Components can have sharp edges which may cause injury. Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut.

• Exhaust ducting must be of non-inflammable material. Suitable material is available from Miele specialist dealers or the Miele Spares Dept.

• The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or flue which is in use. Neither should it be connected to ducting which ventilates rooms with fireplaces.

• If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or ventilation duct no longer used for other purposes, seek professional advice.

Cleaning and care

• There is a risk of fire if the cooker hood is not cleaned as described in these operating instructions.
• Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Accessories and spare parts

• Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty and Miele cannot accept liability.
• Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.
• Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a minimum of 10 years and up to 15 years following the discontinuation of your vapour extraction unit.

Caring for the environment

Disposing of the packaging material
The packaging material is used for handling and protects the appliance from transport damage. The packaging material used is selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material reduces the use of raw materials. Use material-specific collection points for valuable materials and take advantage of return options. Your Miele dealer will take the packaging material away.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances contain many valuable materials. They also contain certain materials, compounds and components which were essential for their correct functioning and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with household waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with household waste.
Instead, please make use of officially designated collection and disposal points to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances in your local community, with your dealer or with Miele, free of charge. By law, you are solely responsible for deleting any personal data from the old appliance prior to disposal. You are legally obliged to remove any old batteries which are not securely enclosed by the appliance and to  remove any lamps without destroying them, where this is possible. These must be taken to a suitable collection point where they can be handed in free of charge. Please ensure that your old appliance poses no risk to children while being stored for disposal.

The hob 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.
The cooker hood selects the fan power level automatically during cooking. This is determined by the total output of the hob, i.e. the number of cooking zones in operation and the power levels selected.
If you select a higher power level or are using several cooking zones, the cooker hood will switch to a higher fan power level. When you reduce the power level or the number of cooking zones on the hob, the fan power level is also reduced. Because the hob trinformation tint The rseconds t

Examples for power levels 1 to B
Reaction time
The cooker hood reacts with a slight delay because altering the power level on the hob does not immediately result in a reduction or increase in cooking vapours.
Because the hob transmits the information to the cooker hood at intervals, this can also cause delays.
The reaction can vary from a few seconds to a couple of minutes.
Cooking process

• For example, you switch on a cooking zone at the highest power level to heat a pan for frying. You reduce the power level after approx. 10 seconds to 4 minutes (60 seconds to 5 minutes for a for a HiLight hob).
  The cooker hood recognises a cooking process.
  The cooker hood switches itself on and when the hob power level has been reduced, the hood switches to fan power level 3 and remains at that level for approx. 5 minutes.
  After that, the cooker hood power level is determined automatically by the Con@ctivity function. You can select another power level manually before then.

Switching off
Switch off all cooking zones. The cooker hood fan will reduce its power level in stages over the next few minutes and will then switch itself off.
This helps to neutralise any lingering vapours and odours in the air.
– From the Booster setting, the fan switches immediately to Level 3.
– From Level 3, it will switch to Level 2 after approx. 1 minute.
– From Level 2, it will switch to Level 1 after 2 minutes.
– After 2 minutes at Level 1 the fan switches itself off.
– After another 30 seconds, the hob lighting switches off.
The cooking process is then finished.
Leaving automatic mode temporarily
To leave automatic mode temporarily during cooking:

• Manually select a different fan power level, or
• Manually switch the cooker hood off, or
• Activate the run-on function on the cooker hood. The fan will switch itself off after the selected run-on time, and the lighting will remain on.

The cooker hood functions are now operated manually (see “Operation (Manual mode)”).
Returning to automatic mode
The cooker hood will resume automatic mode:
– If the cooker hood has not been used for approx. 5 minutes after selecting a fan power level manually, or
– If the manually selected fan power level corresponds to the automatic one again, or
– The cooker hood fan and the hob have been switched off for at least 30 seconds.
Automatic mode will resume next time the hob is switched on.
You can also operate the cooker hood manually for a complete cooking process.

• Switch the cooker hood fan on before the hob.
  If the cooker hood fan and the hob have been switched off for at least 30 seconds after cooking, automatic mode will resume next time the hob is switched on.

Cooking without Con@ctivity (Manual mode)
The cooker hood can be operated manually if:
– The Con@ctivity function is not activated.
– You have temporarily deactivated the Con@ctivity function (see “Operation (Manual operation)” – “Leaving automatic mode temporarily”).
Switching the fan on
Switch the fan on as soon as you start cooking. This is to ensure that vapours are captured right from the start.

• Press the On/Off control . The fan will switch on at setting 2 and the symbol and 2 will light up in the power setting display.

Selecting the power level
For light to heavy cooking vapours and odours, select from power levels 1 to 3. For short periods of cooking food with intensive vapours and a strong aroma, e.g. when searing meat, select Booster setting B.

• Select the power level you want by pressing the – or + control.

Reducing power down from the Booster setting
If power management is activated (default setting), the fan automatically switches back to level 3 after 5 minutes.
Selecting the run-on time
It is advisable to run the fan for a few minutes after cooking has finished. This helps to remove any lingering vapours and odours from the air.
It also reduces the risk of residues accumulating in the cooker hood and any resultant odours.
The run-on function enables the fan to continue running for a pre-determined time before switching itself off automatically.

• After you have finished cooking, press the run-on control while the fan is still running:
  – Once: the fan will switch itself off after 5 minutes (5 lights up).
  – Twice: The fan will switch itself off after 15 minutes (15 lights up).
  – If you touch the run-on option control again, the fan will remain on ( will go out).

Switching the fan off

• Press the On/Off control to switch the fan off.
  The symbol will go out.

Dimming/switching the hob lighting on/off
The hob lighting can be switched on and off and dimmed independently of the fan.

• Press the lighting sensor briefly to switch it on or off.
  The lighting will switch on at maximum brightness.

• With the lighting switched on, press and hold the hob lighting control . The brightness will gradually dim until you release the control.

• Press and hold the lighting control again to increase the brightness to the level required and then release it.

Power management
The cooker hood is fitted with a power management system. Power management helps to save energy. It ensures that the fan power level is reduced automatically and that the lighting is switched off.
– If the Booster setting has been selected, the fan will automatically switch to level 3 after 5 minutes.
– From fan power levels 3, 2 or 1, the power will be reduced by one level after 2 hours and then in 30-minute stages until the fan finally switches off.
– The hob lighting will switch off automatically after 12 hours.
You can deactivate power management.
Keep in mind that deactivating this function may increase energy consumption.

Indicators 1 to B …………………… 100 %
The number of operating hours used remains in the memory, even when the cooker hood is switched off or there is a power cut.

Energy saving tips

This cooker hood operates very efficiently and economically. The following will help you to save even more energy when using it:
– Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation in the kitchen when cooking. In extraction mode, if there is insufficient air flow the cooker hood cannot operate efficiently and this causes increased operating noise levels.
– Always cook with the lowest possible setting. This produces fewer cooking vapours, so you can use a lowercooker hood power level and therefore benefit from reduced energy consumption.
– Clean or change the filters at regular intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce  performance, increase the risk of fireand are unhygienic.
– Use the Con@ctivity function. The cooker hood will switch on and off automatically at the optimum power level for the cooking you are doing, which ensures low energy consumption.
– If you are operating the cooker hood manually, please note the following:
– Check the power level selected on the cooker hood. A low power level is usually sufficient. Only use the Booster setting when necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking vapours are being produced, switch to a high power level in good time. This is more efficient than operating the cooker hood for longer to try to capture cooking vapours which have already been distributed throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the cooker hood off after use.
If cooking vapours and odours still need to be removed from the kitchen air after cooking, use the run-on function. The fan will switch off automatically after the selected run-on time.

Cleaning and care

Before proceeding with any maintenance or cleaning task, the cooker hood must be disconnected from the power supply (see “Warning and Safety instructions”).

When cleaning the cooker hood, please note the following: Use a stable ladder.
Make sure that you have a secure footing on the ladder.
Do not lean over the hob.
Do not stand on the worktop or the hob.

Oversaturated grease filters are a fire hazard.
Clean the grease filters at regular intervals.
The edge extraction panel and the reusable metal grease filters in the appliance remove solid particles (grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of the cooker hood. The grease filters and the panel must be cleaned at regular intervals.
Heavily soiled grease filters hinder air extraction and will lead to increased levels of soiling in the cooker hood and in the kitchen.
Cleaning interval
The edge extraction panel should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3 – 4 weeks) to avoid a build-up of grease.
The operating hours counter will remind you to clean the edge extraction panel and the grease filters regularly via the grease filter symbol which will light up.
You can set the operating hours counter interval to suit the type of cooking you do (see “Operation (Automatic and Manual modes)”).
Removing the panel and grease filters
The panel and grease filter can fall out when you are handling them. This can result in damage. Make sure you hold the panel and the grease filter securely at all times when handling them.

• Hold the panel with one hand and release the catch with the other hand. Lower the panel.

• Lift the panel slightly upwards, and then lift it forwards to remove it.

• Open the grease filter retainer catch and remove the filter. Cleaning the panel by hand

• For cleaning purposes, follow the instructions provided under “Housing”.
  Cleaning the grease filters by hand

• 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.

Unsuitable cleaning agents
Unsuitable cleaning agents can cause damage to the surface of the filters if used regularly.
Do not use:
– cleaning agents containing descaling agents
– powder cleaners, cream cleaners
– aggressive multi-purpose cleaning agents or spray cleaners for grease
– oven sprays
Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher

• Place the grease filters upright or slightly inclined in the lower basket. Ensure the spray arm is not obstructed.
• Use a commercially available household dishwasher detergent.
• Select a dishwasher programme with a wash temperature between 50 °C and 65 °C.

Depending on the detergent used, cleaning the filters in a dishwasher may cause the inside filter surfaces to become discoloured. This will not affect the functioning of the grease filters in any way.
After cleaning

• After cleaning, leave the filters to dry on an absorbent surface before replacing them.

• When removing the panel and filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible parts of the casing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.

• Refit the grease filters, making sure that the latch faces outwards.

• If a grease filter is inadvertently fitted upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slit to disengage the clip.

• Lift the panel into the deflector plate and hook it in at the back.

• Lift the panel upwards at the front and press it into the locking clip.

Resetting the grease filter operating hours counter
After cleaning, the operating hours counter needs to be reset.

• Whilst the fan is switched on, press the operating hours control for approx. 3 seconds, until only 1 is flashing.
  The grease filter symbol goes out.
  If you want to clean the grease filters before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum:

• Press the operating hours control for approx. 6 seconds, until only 1 is flashing.

Replacing the grease filters
Regular usage and cleaning can cause the filter surfaces to become worn.
If you identify any damage, replace the grease filters.
Grease filters are available to order via the Miele Customer Service Department (see end of these operating instructions for contact details) or from your Miele dealer.
Charcoal filters
With recirculation mode, two charcoal filters must be fitted in addition to the grease filters. These are designed to absorb cooking odours.
The charcoal filters are inserted in the separate recirculation box (not supplied, see “Technical data” for details of part number to order).
When to change the charcoal filters Replace the charcoal filters when they no longer absorb kitchen odours effectively, and at least every 6 months.
The operating hours counter will remind you to replace the charcoal filters by lighting up the charcoal filter symbol .
Resetting the charcoal filter operating hours counter
After changing the charcoal filters, the operating hours counter needs to be reset.

• To do this, with the fan switched on, press the operating hours control
  twice, then hold it for approx. 3 seconds until only the 1 is flashing. The Charcoal filter symbol   will go out.
  If you want to replace the charcoal filters before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum:

• Press the operating hours control
  twice and hold it for approx. 6
  seconds until only the 1 is flashing.
  Disposing of charcoal filters

• Used charcoal filters can be disposed of with normal household waste.

Installation

Before installation

Before installation, it is important to read the information given on the following pages as well as the “Warning and Safety instructions” at the beginning of this booklet.

Installation instructions
See enclosed Installation sheet for instructions on how to install this appliance.
Installation materials

1 vent connection
for exhaust ducting  150 mm.

1 non-return flap
for fitting into the exhaust socket on the motor unit (not needed for recirculation mode). Depending on the model, the non-return flap may already be fitted.

1 connector for flat ducting to the rear or the side (only for EXTA models)
Keep the following in a safe place:

Installation plan
See the installation plan for details on the individual steps involved in the installation of this appliance.

Appliance dimensions

1. The vent connection can also be connected at the back or to the left-hand side.
2. 222 x 89 mm flat ducting can be used as an alternative for vent connection to the rear or to the side.
3. The cooker hood is fastened in the cut-out using clamps. A solid installation surface, e.g. made of wood, is required. Make sure that the structure can support the load. Around the clamps, components such as supports and ducting must be at least 25 mm from the cut-out.
4. Additional fixing points on the installation surface.

Safety distance between hob and cooker hood (S)
When planning the installation height of your cooker hood, the minimum safety distance between the top of a cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood is as follows, unless a greater distance is specified by the manufacturer of your cooking appliance.
See “Warning and Safety” instructions for further information.

Multi-burner gas hob, total output > 12.6 kW and ≤ 21.6 kW, no burner > 4.8 kW.| 760 mm
Multi-burner gas hob, total output > 21.6 kW, or multi-burner gas hob where one burner > 4.8 kW.| Not possible
Single burner gas hob, output ≤ 6 kW.| 650 mm
Single burner gas hob, output > 6 kW and ≤ 8.1 kW.| 760 mm
Single burner gas hob, output > 8.1 kW| Not possible

Installation recommendations
– We recommend a minimum distance of 700 mm and a maximum distance of 1300 mm.
– Please be aware that if positioned too high, extraction will be inefficient.
– To achieve optimum vapour extraction, the cooker hood must be centred over the hob, not to the side or behind it.
– The hob should be no wider than the cooker hood, and if possible, it should be narrower.

– If the cooker hood is being installed in a suspended ceiling, the installation surface all around the cooker hood must be at least 300 mm larger than the cooker hood itself.
– The installation area must be easily accessible. The cooker hood should be easily accessible and easy to dismantle in the event that service is required. This should be taken into consideration when planning the position of cupboards, shelves, ceilings or features in the vicinity of the cooker hood.
Uneven installation surfaces

If the installation surface is uneven making flush installation difficult, the frame can be realigned.

• Fit the cooker hood as described on the installation sheet.

• Disconnect the cooker hood from the mains electrical supply before replacing the lamps (see “Warning and Safety instructions”).

• Using the suction cup supplied, pull the lamp out of its holder.

• Remove all other lamps in the same way.

• Fit one of the screws supplied into each lamp opening.

• Tighten the screws with a screwdriver until the frame sits flush with the installation surface. Do not overtighten the screws.

• Replace the lamps.

Connection for air extraction
If the cooker hood is used at the same time as a heating appliance that relies on oxygen from the same room, there is a risk in certain circumstances of toxic fumes building up.
It is essential that the “Warning and Safety” instructions are observed.
The cooker hood should be installed according to local and national building regulations. Seek approval from the building inspector where necessary.
Only use smooth pipes or flexible exhaust ducting made from approved non- flammable materials for exhaust ducting.
Use rigid exhaust ducting for … EXT/ EXTA model cooker hoods. The external motor can cause an underpressure which can result in the exhaust ducting distorting.
To achieve the most efficient air throughput with the lowest noise levels, please note the following:
– The diameter of the exhaust ducting must not be smaller than the crosssection of the exhaust duct (see “Appliance dimensions”). This applies in particular when using flat ducting.
– The exhaust ducting should be as short and straight as possible.
– Only use wide radius bends.
– The exhaust ducting must not be kinked or compressed.
– All connections must be strong and airtight.
– If the exhaust ducting has flaps, these must be opened whenever the cooker hood is switched on.
Any constriction of the air throughput will reduce extraction performance and increase operating noise.
Flue

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 exhaust system.
A non-return flap ensures that when the cooker 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 ventilation system does not have a non-return flap, one is supplied with the cooker hood.
The non-return flap is fitted in the exhaust socket of the fan.
Condensation
If the exhaust ducting is to run through cool rooms or ceiling space, for example, the significant variations in temperature between the different areas can cause condensation to form.
Insulate the exhaust ducting to reduce temperature variations.
If the exhaust ducting is to be laid horizontally, it must be laid with a downwards sloping gradient of at least  1 cm per meter. This is to ensure that condensation cannot drain back into the cooker hood.

In addition to insulating the exhaust ducting, it is advisable to also install a condensate trap for collecting and evaporating any potential condensation.
Condensate traps for 125 mm or 150 mm diameter exhaust ducting are available as optional accessories.
When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and as closely as possible to the cooker hood above the exhaust connection.
The arrow on the casing indicates the direction of airflow.
The condensate trap will be integrated in cooker hoods which are designed to be connected to an external motor (EXT/EXTA models).
Miele shall not accept warranty claims for any functional defects or damage caused by inadequate exhaust ducting.
Silencer

To reduce noise levels even further, a silencer (optional accessory) can be installed in the exhaust ducting.

In extraction mode, the silencer not only reduces noise from the fan outside the house, but also sounds originating outside reaching the kitchen through the exhaust ducting (e.g. traffic noise).
For this reason, the silencer must be positioned as close as possible to the ducting exit 1.

For operation with an external motor, noise from the motor outside the house and inside the kitchen can be minimised.
Positioning the silencer in front of the external motor 3 reduces noise inside the kitchen. If the exhaust ducting is long, the silencer needs to be positioned at the exhaust duct in the ducting above the cooker hood itself 4. For an external motor installed inside the house, noise from the motor outside the house can be reduced by positioning the silencer behind the external motor 5.
Electrical connection
The cooker hood is supplied with a mains cable with moulded plug ready for connection to a suitable earthed socket.
If the socket is not easily accessible or a fixed connection is envisaged, ensure that a suitable means of disconnection is provided on the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating. Connecting the cooker hood to multi-socket adapters or extension cables can overload the cables.
For safety reasons, do not use an extension cable or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical system must comply with local and national safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK).
For safety reasons, we recommend
using a type  residual current device (RCD) in the relevant electrical installation for connecting the cooker hood.
If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must only be replaced with a specific mains connection cable of the same type (available from the Miele Customer Service Department). For safety reasons, such replacement may only be carried out by a qualified specialist or the Miele Customer Service Department.
These operating instructions and the data plate indicate the nominal power consumption and the appropriate fuse rating. Compare this information with the data of the on-site electrical connection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply
system complies with the specifications of EN 50160 or an equivalent standard. The function and operation of the protective measures provided in the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described, for example, in the current version of VDE-AR-E 2510-2.
