Safety with children Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the cooker hood unless they are constantly supervised.
Warning and Safety instructions 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.
Warning and Safety instructions Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user and can cause operational faults. Only open the housing as described in the instructions given in the installation sheet and in the Cleaning and care section of this booklet. Under no circumstances should any other parts of the housing be opened. The manufacturer's warranty will be invalidated if the appliance is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.
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 a naked flame beneath the cooker hood. To avoid the danger of fire, do not flambé or grill over a naked 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 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.
Warning and Safety instructions 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. Important information on handling the remote control battery: – Do not short circuit or recharge the battery, or throw it into a fire. Danger of explosion.
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: Extraction mode The cooking vapours are drawn in by the cooker hood. The air is passed via the edge extraction panels through the grease filters, cleaned and then 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 wireless 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) Switching the fan on The cooker hood can be operated manually if: The fan will switch on at level 2. The symbol and 2 will light up in the power level display. – Con@ctivity 2.0 is not activated. Press the On/Off control . – You have temporarily deactivated Con@ctivity 2.0 (see "Leaving automatic mode temporarily").
Operation (Manual mode) Selecting the run-on time It is advisable to run the fan for a few minutes after cooking has finished to neutralise any lingering vapours and odours in the air. With the run-on option the fan switches itself off automatically after a preselected time. After you have finished cooking, press the run-on option control 5 15 – 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).
Operation (Manual mode) Power management The cooker hood features a power management system to help save energy. The fan power level is reduced and the lighting is switched off automatically. – If the Intensive setting is selected, the fan automatically switches to 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 counters The number of hours the appliance has been in operation is stored in memory. When the Grease filter symbol or the Charcoal filter symbol lights up, the operating hours counters are 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) Activating and altering the charcoal filter operating hours counter Reading the filter operating hours counter Charcoal filters are needed for recirculation mode. To check the percentage of time set already used The charcoal filter operating hours counter needs to be activated once and the operating time needs to be set to suit the kind of cooking you do: Use the On/Off control to switch the fan on. Use the On/Off control to switch the fan off.
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.
Cleaning and care Casing General information Before cleaning the cooker hood, please note the following: Make sure that you use a stable and secure ladder. Make sure that you stand on the ladder in a safe way. Do not lean over the hob. Do not stand on the worktop or the hob. The surfaces and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasion. Please observe the following cleaning instructions.
Cleaning and care Important for appliances with stainless steel surfaces (This information does not apply to the controls). Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned with a proprietary nonabrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel. To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel (available from Miele) can also be used. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging.
Cleaning and care Removing the panels and grease filters The panels and the grease filters need to be removed for cleaning. During cooking, condensation forms on the panels which evaporates after cooking. To avoid this dripping on you, do not remove the panels for approximately two hours after cooking has finished. The panels and grease filters can fall out when you are handling them. This can result in damage. Make sure you hold the panels and grease filters securely at all times when handling them.
Cleaning and care Cleaning the panels and grease filters in the dishwasher Place the panels and the grease filters as upright as possible or at a slight angle in the lower basket, with the short sides upright, ensuring the spray arm is not obstructed. If a grease filter is inadvertently replaced upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slit to disengage the clip. Use a proprietary household dishwasher detergent.
Cleaning and care Resetting the grease filter operating hours counter After cleaning, the operating hours counter needs to be re-set. Whilst the fan is switched on, press the operating hours control for approx. 3 seconds, until only the 1 is flashing. The grease filter symbol goes out. If you want to clean the grease filter(s) before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum, Press the operating hours control for approx. 6 seconds, until only the 1 is flashing.
Cleaning and care Remote control Cleaning the remote control Only clean the surface with a damp cloth. Do not use too much water to avoid moisture penetrating the casing. Changing the battery Use only the type of battery listed. Do not use rechargeable batteries. The remote control requires one 3 V CR 2032 battery.

Installation instructions See enclosed Installation sheet for instructions on how to install this appliance.
Installation Appliance dimensions 34
Installation a Suction side b Motor can be rotated. Exhaust socket can be fitted at the top or the sides in any direction. c The motor can be freely positioned. Connection to the appliance is via the exhaust ducting and the connection cable. Connection cable length: max. 1800 mm. d If the cooker hood is being installed near to a wall, a minimum distance of at least 50 mm must be observed so that the edge extraction panels and the grease filters can be removed easily.
Installation 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.
Installation 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 cover the hob. It should be positioned centrally over the hob, not to the side or to the back of it. – The hob should be no wider than the cooker hood, and if possible, it should be narrower.
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. – Ensure that all connections are strong and airtight.
Connection for air extraction Silencer To achieve even further reductions in noise levels, a special silencer (optional accessory) can be fitted in the ducting system. Extraction mode Extraction mode 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 socket on the cooker hood .
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.
Activating Con@ctivity 2.0 Installing the Con@ctivity 2.0 Stick In order to use the Con@ctivity 2.0 function, the hob must first be fitted with the Con@ctivity 2.0 Stick.
