Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc.
Warning and Safety instructions Warning and Safety instructions This appliance conforms to current safety requirements. Inappropriate use could, however lead to risk of accidents to the user and damage to the appliance. Before using this appliance for the first time read the operating instructions carefully. They contain important information on safety, use and maintenance of the appliance. This way you will avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions The appliance is only completely isolated from the mains supply when: – it is switched off at the fused spur connection, or – it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug has been withdrawn (do not pull on the cable, only on the plug), or – the mains fuse is withdrawn. Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out. Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead.
Warning and Safety instructions Installation – The distance between the top of the cooker/hob and the bottom of the cooker hood must measure at least: – 45 cm above electric cookers/hobs, – 65 cm above gas cookers/hobs, – 65 cm above a Miele or Imperial electric open grill. For other manufacturer’s cooking appliances maintain the safety distance as recommended in their Installation and Operating instructions.
Warning and Safety instructions When using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating appliance which depends on the air in the room, (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas cooker, gas hob or gas oven) special care must be taken, as the action of the cooker hood extracts air from the room, which these types of heater need for combustion.

Description of the functions Description of the functions The cooker hood works . . . by air extraction: The air is drawn in, cleaned by a primary filter and then passed through a secondary filter before being directed outside. The cooker hood is fitted with a nonreturn flap . This flap is closed when the cooker hood is switched off. No exchange of room air and outside air can take place. When the cooker hood is switched on the non-return flap opens for the cooking smells to be blown directly outside. . . .
Operation Operation To switch the fan on To switch the fan off Pull the deflector plate out approx. 5 cm. The cooker hood will then begin to operate at power level “II”. Press the On/Off switch to turn the fan off Selecting the power level Depending on how much the air needs to be filtered, there are four power levels available. For normal cooking a low to medium level is usually sufficient. For frying or cooking food with a strong aroma the highest level is recommended.
Cleaning and care Cleaning and care Before any cleaning or maintenance work the cooker hood must be disconnected from the mains supply. Ensure that: - it is switched off at the fused spur connection or - it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug has been withdrawn (do not pull on the cable, only on the plug), or - the mains fuse is withdrawn. Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or repair work is being carried out.
Cleaning and care Primary filter To remove the primary filter pull the deflector plate out slightly. Switch the fan off. Clean the filters – – by hand: with a nylon brush in a mild solution of hot water and washing up liquid. – in a dishwasher: place the filters with the short side upright in the lower basket, ensuring the spray arm is not obstructed. Holding the primary filter at the front, tilt it approx. 3 cm downwards and then pull it towards you to remove it.
Cleaning and care Replacing the filters Secondary filter: Fit the filter into the appliance so that it hooks into position at the back, then push it upwards at the front and make sure it engages in position on the left and right hand sides. Turn the filter so that the red plastic guides are at the front and facing upwards. With the deflector plate pulled out, insert the primary filter from below and hold in position.
Cleaning and care Fitting / replacing the active charcoal filter For recirculation mode the active charcoal filter has to be used in addition to the grease filters. It is designed to absorb cooking odours. The active charcoal filter is fitted into a slot on the front of the appliance housing. Active charcoal filters can be obtained from your dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Department. Refer to the section “Technical data” for type and reference number.
Cleaning and care Defective lighting If the lighting does not work the light tube may need replacing or the starter could be defective. Before any cleaning or maintenance work the cooker hood must be disconnected from the mains supply. Ensure that: - it is switched off at the fused spur connection or - it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug has been withdrawn (do not pull on the cable, only on the plug), or - the mains fuse is withdrawn.

The DA 327 i and 329 i can also be fitted in a 60 cm wide wall housing unit (see wall unit dimensions for DA 326 i). Please note that the deflector plate protrudes at the sides. The building in height of adjacent units must take this into account.
Appliance dimensions Building in depth of the wall unit The depth required will depend on the lightshield and where it is positioned. Appliance with DFB lightshield (Supplied as standard in Australia) If the appliance is to be fitted with the lightshield flush against the front panel of the wall unit the following building-in depth A is necessary: A = min. 273 mm with a 16 mm thick furniture door A = min.
Appliance dimensions The side spacer C covers a gap of 10 to 70 mm between the rear of the appliance and the wall. If the wall unit does not have a back panel and there are no units to the side of it then a traverse must be used to provide the unit with extra stability. A traverse is available from the Miele Spare Parts Department in the appropriate width to suit the wall unit (Miele DT 60, DT 70 and DT 90).
