Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

~

Before installation, check the cooker hood for visible signs of damage.

Under no circumstances should you use a damaged appliance. A damaged appliance is dangerous.

~

Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, make sure that the voltage and frequency details given on the data plate correspond with the on-site electricity supply, otherwise the appliance could be damaged. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

~

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with current local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

~

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used when it has been fully installed.

~

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.

Tampering with electrical connections or components and mechanical parts is highly dangerous to the user, and can cause operational faults.

~

Installation, maintenance and repairs may only be carried out by a

Miele authorised person in accordance with current national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

~

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original parts. The manufacturer can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

~

During installation, maintenance and repair work, the appliance must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply. It is only completely isolated from the electricity supply.

5

Warning and Safety instructions

~

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a multi-socket unit or an extension lead.

These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

~

For appliances with an external fan motor fitted (...EXT models) the connection of the two units must be made using the connection cable and the plug connectors.

These models may only be combined with a Miele external motor.

~

This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

~

In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

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.

Such appliances include gas, oil, wood or coal-fired boilers and heaters, continuous flow or other water heaters, gas hobs, cookers or ovens which draw air in from the room and duct exhaust gases out through a chimney or extraction ducting.

When used in extraction mode, with or without an external motor fitted, the appliance draws air in from the room in which it is installed and from neighbouring rooms.

If there is insufficient air, an underpressure will occur. The heating appliance may be starved of oxygen, impairing combustion.

Harmful gases could be drawn out of the chimney or extraction ducting back into the room, with potentially fatal consequences.

6

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 of

0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum permissible in the room.

Ventilation can be maintained by air inlets which must not be blocked, in windows, doors and outside wall vents, or by other technical measures, such as ensuring that the cooker hood can only be switched on when the heating appliance is switched off or vice versa.

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, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a qualified gas fitter (GasSafe registered in the UK) must be sought.

7

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

~

Never use an open flame beneath the cooker hood. 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 particles drawn into the cooker hood present a fire hazard.

~

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.

Regulate the flame so that it does not burn up the sides of the pan.

Do not allow the pans to overheat excessively (e.g. when using a wok).

The cooker hood can become damaged when exposed to excessive heat.

~

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

~

When cooking with oil or fat, chip pans and deep fat fryers etc, do not leave the pans unattended. Never leave an open grill unattended when grilling.

Overheated oil and fat can ignite and could set the cooker hood on fire.

~

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 filters should be regularly cleaned or changed as appropriate.

Saturated filters are a fire hazard. See

"Cleaning and care".

~

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.

~

Do not use a steam-cleaner to clean this appliance. Steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Correct installation

~

Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob.

~

The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Appliance dimensions" section of this booklet must be maintained, 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.

8

Warning and Safety instructions

~

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

~

All ducting, pipework and fittings must be of non-flammable material.

These can be obtained from the Miele

Spare Parts department or from builders' merchants.

~

The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or vent 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.

Accessories

~

Only use genuine Miele spare parts and accessories with this appliance. If spare parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, this will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liability.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.

11

Modes of operation

The cooker hood works with

. . . air extraction: . . . an external motor:

(...EXT models only)

The air is drawn in and cleaned by the grease filters and directed outside.

If the on-site ventilation system does not have a non-return flap, the non-return flap supplied must be fitted.

The non-return flap is designed to prevent the exchange of room and outside air taking place.

When the cooker hood is switched on, the non-return flap opens for the cooking vapours to be blown directly outside.

The ...EXT models are designed to be connected to an external motor located outside the room.

The external motor is connected to the cooker hood by means of a control cable, and is operated by the controls on the cooker hood.

3 lamps = 75 %

4 lamps = 100 %

The number of operating hours used remains in the memory, even when the appliance is switched off or there is a power cut.

16

Operation

Altering the filter operating hours counter

The filter operating hours counter is set at 30 hours. This can be lengthened or shortened to suit the type of cooking you do. You can choose 20, 30, 40 or

50 hours

– Select a short time if you roast or fry a lot.

– If you use very little fat for cooking, select a longer time.

– If you only cook occasionally we recommend that you still select a short time, because grease which has built up gradually over a long period of time will harden on the grease filters and make cleaning more difficult.

The – / + indicator lamps show the time which has been set:

1st lamp from the left = 20 hours

2nd lamp from the left = 30 hours

3rd lamp from the left = 40 hours

4th lamp from the left = 50 hours

^ Use the – / + controls to select the desired time.

^ Press the On/Off control to switch the fan off.

^ Confirm the selection by pressing the grease filter control.

All the indicator lamps will go out.

If you do not confirm your selection within 4 minutes, the cooker hood will automatically revert to the original setting.

17

Cleaning and care

A range of Miele branded cleaning and conditioning agents are available to order through your Miele Dealer /

Chartered Agent, the Miele Spare Parts

Department, or via the internet on www.miele-shop.com.

,

Before any cleaning or maintenance work is carried out, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply.

,

Halogen lamps get very hot during use and remain hot for some time after being switched off. The hot lamps are also susceptible to damage from damp cleaning. Wait a few minutes after switching off before commencing cleaning.

Do not use too much water when cleaning the controls. Water could penetrate into the electronics and cause damage.

Do not use:

– cleaning agents containing soda, acids, chlorides or solvents,

– abrasive cleaning agents e.g.

powder cleaners or cream cleaners, and abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers or sponges which have been previously used with abrasive cleaning agents. These will damage the surface material.

Housing

General notes

The surfaces and controls are susceptible to scratches and abrasions. Please observe the following cleaning instructions.

^ All external surfaces and controls can be cleaned using a Miele E-Cloth, or with warm water and a small amount of washing-up liquid applied with a well wrung-out soft sponge or cloth.

^ Wipe the surfaces dry using a soft cloth.

Important for appliances with stainless steel housing

(This infomation does not apply to the controls).

Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using the Miele E-Cloth, or with a proprietary non-abrasive cleaning agent designed specifically for use on stainless steel.

To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary conditioning agent for stainless steel can also be used. Follow the manufacturer's instructions, and apply sparingly with an even pressure in the direction of the "grain".

18

Cleaning and care

Important for appliances with lacquered housing

(special order finish)

It is very difficult to clean this type of surface without causing minor marks to the surface material. This can become particularly noticeable with darker colours and if there is halogen lighting in the kitchen.

Grease filters

The re-usable metal grease filters in the appliance remove solid particles

(grease, dust, etc.) from the kitchen vapours, preventing soiling of the cooker hood.

Controls

The controls may suffer discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove soiling straight away.

Observe the General notes on cleaning earlier in this section.

Do not use stainless steel cleaning agents on the controls.

To avoid a build-up of grease, the grease filters should be cleaned regularly (at least every 3-4 weeks), but always clean immediately the grease filter indicator lamp comes on.

,

An oversaturated filter is a fire hazard.

^ To take out the grease filters, release the locking clip on the filter, lower the filter 45°, unhook it at the back and remove it.

To avoid damaging the filters or the hob below, make sure you hold the filters securely at all times when handling them.

19

Cleaning and care

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 undiluted washing up liquid.

Do not use:

– cleaning agents containing descaling agents,

– powder cleaners, cream cleaners or abrasive all-purpose cleaning agents,

– oven sprays.

Cleaning the grease filters in the dishwasher

^ Place the filters as upright as possible in the lower basket, with the short sides upright. Make sure that the spray arm can move freely.

^ Do not wash at more than 65° C. If a

Miele dishwasher is being used, select the Sensor wash programme.

^ Use a mild dishwasher detergent.

Depending on the cleaning agent used, cleaning the filters in a dishwasher can cause permanent discolouration to the surface.

However, this will not affect the functioning of the filters in any way.

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

^ When removing the filters for cleaning, also clean off any residues of oil or fat from the now accessible housing to prevent the risk of these catching fire.

When putting the grease filters back in position, ensure that the locking clips are facing down towards the hob.

^ If the grease filters are inadvertently replaced upside down, insert a small screwdriver blade into the slits to disengage the clip.

^ After replacing the grease filters, press the grease filter control for approximately 3 seconds to reset the operating hours counter.

The indicator lamp will go out.

If the grease filters are cleaned before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum, the grease filter control should be pressed for approximately 6 seconds to reset the counter to zero.

20

Changing a halogen lamp

^ Before any cleaning or maintenance work, disconnect the cooker hood from the mains supply.

,

Exercise caution when changing halogen lamps. They get very hot during use and remain hot for some time after being switched off. Let them cool down before you change them.

Cleaning and care

^ To access the halogen lamp press and release the lamp cover.

^ Pull the old halogen lamp out of the connection socket.

^ Using a cloth or glove, push the new lamp (12 V, 20 W, G4 cap) carefully into the connection socket. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions.

^ Push the cover back up and make sure it clicks into place.

Safety distance between hob and cooker hood (S)

When planning the installation height of your cooker hood, the minimum safety distances between the top of a cooker or hob and the bottom of the cooker hood are as follows, unless a greater distance is specified by the manufacturer of your cooking appliance:

450 mm (GB), 600 mm (AU, NZ) above electric hobs and cookers,

650 mm above an open grill or deep fat fryer,

650 mm above gas hobs and cookers.

If this cooker hood is installed above a Miele Wok CS 1028 CombiSet appliance, a minimum safety distance of 760 mm must be maintained between the burner and the lower edge of the cooker hood.

See "Warning and Safety" instructions for further information.

Connection for air extraction

C 150 mm, or C 125 mm with reducing collar.

22

– When deciding on the safety distance between the hob and cooker hood, please note that a distance of 650 mm above electric cookers/hobs may be preferable to give more working space under the hood.

– Account should also be taken of the height of the person who will be using the hood most often. The person should have sufficient space to work comfortably at the hob, and also be able to reach the hood controls with ease.

– If positioned too high, extraction will be inefficient.

– The height of the cooking appliance must be taken into account when planning the installation height of 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).

If the switch is not accessible after installation (depending on country), an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles.

For extra safety it is advisable to protect the appliance with a suitable residual current device (RCD). Contact a qualified electrician for advice.

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.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. These do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

Important

This appliance is supplied for connection to an a.c. 230 V single phase 50 Hz supply.

The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green/yellow

Blue

Brown

= earth

= neutral

= live

The connection data is given on the

data plate. This is visible when the grease filters have been removed.

Ensure that this data matches the household mains supply.

Connection of this appliance should be made via a suitable isolator or a double pole fused spur connection unit which complies with national and local safety regulations and the On-Off switch should be easily accessible after the appliance has been built in.

When switched off there must be an all-pole contact gap of 3 mm in the switch (including switch, fuses and relays according to EN 60335).

WARNING:

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE

EARTHED

Operation with Control module DSM 400

The Miele DSM 400 control module can be used to combine the cooker hood with other components.

It enables the following:

Components used in the central ducting system are not supplied by

Miele.

If in any doubt, the advice of a competent builder or, for gas, a Gas

Safe installer must be sought.

Potential free connection

This can be used to operate a further appliance via the On/Off button s on the cooker hood.

Connection to a light switch

The control module can be used to switch on the cooker hood lighting and also to dim it, via a pushbutton light switch in the house.

Installation

The potential free contact on the

DSM 400 a can, for example, be used in a cooker hood with an external motor

...EXT, which is connected to a central ducting system.

The contact can then be used to operate an electrically driven non-return flap b which is connected to the central extraction unit c.

The tower needs to be removed before the control module can be fitted to the fan unit.

The electrical connection of components to the control module must be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person.

28

Important: To avoid the danger of toxic fumes, please observe the

Warning and Safety instructions.

This is especially crucial when using the cooker hood at the same time as another heating appliance which relies on air from the same room.

The cooker hood should be installed according to local and national building regulations. Seek approval from the building inspector where necessary.

Connection for air extraction

– Only use smooth pipes or flexible hoses made from non-flammable materials for the extraction ducting.

– When using an external motor, make sure that the exhaust ducting is sufficiently rigid. The external motor can cause an underpressure which could result in the exhaust ducting distorting.

To achieve the greatest possible air extraction with the lowest noise level, please note the following:

– To ensure efficient air extraction, the diameter of the exhaust ducting should not be less than 150 mm.

– If flat ducting is being used, the cross-sectional area must not be smaller than the cross-sectional area of the exhaust connection.

– The exhaust ducting should be as short and straight as possible.

– Only use wide radius bends.

– The exhaust ducting should not be kinked or compressed.

– Ensure that all connections are strong and airtight.

– Where ducting is horizontal, it must be laid to slope away at at least 1 cm per metre. This is to ensure that condensate cannot drain back into the cooker hood.

29

Connection for air extraction

– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into the open air, the installation of a telescopic wall vent or roof vent is recommended.

Condensate trap

(optional accessory)

– If the exhaust air is to be ducted into a vent flue, the ducting must be directed in the flow direction of the flue.

Important.

If the exhaust ducting is to run through rooms, ceiling space etc. where there may be great variations in temperature between the different areas, the problem of condensation will need to be addressed. The exhaust ducting will need to be suitably insulated.

In addition to insulating the exhaust ducting, we recommend that a suitable condensate trap is also installed to collect and evaporate any condensate which may occur. Condensate traps are available for C 125 mm or

C 150 mm ducting.

When installing a condensate trap, ensure that it is positioned vertically and if possible directly above the exhaust connection. The arrow on the housing indicates the direction of air-flow.

Cooker hoods designed for use with an external motor (...EXT models) have an integrated condensate trap.

30

Connection for air extraction

Silencer

(optional accessory)

To achieve even further reductions in noise levels, a special silencer can be fitted in the ducting system...

...with air extraction:

The silencer not only reduces noise from the fan, but also sounds from outside (e.g. traffic noise).

For this reason the silencer must be positioned as close as possible to where the ducting leaves the building a.

...air extraction with external motor:

To minimise noise from the motor in the kitchen, the silencer should be positioned in front of the external motor b if possible, or if the ducting is long, then in the ducting above the cooker hood itself c.

In the case of an external motor placed inside the house, fitting a silencer behind the external motor d reduces the noise of the motor outside the house.

In all modes of operation, the most effective noise reductions are achieved if two silencers are fitted one behind the other in the system.
