Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
The downdraft extractor must only be installed and operated in
combination with those SmartLine elements and hob units specified
by Miele.
Damage to the downdraft extractor can compromise your safety.
Check it for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged
downdraft extractor.
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply 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 sys-
tem 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 electrical safety of the downdraft extractor can only be guar-
anteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing system. It is most important that this basic safety require-
ment is present and tested regularly. If in doubt, the electrical install-
ation should be checked by a qualified electrician.
