Do not install this exhaust hood over
cooktops burning solid fuel.

When installing the hood, make sure
that the following

minimum

distance

(

S

) between the top of a

Miele cooking surface and the
bottom of the hood is:
- 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
- 26" (65 cm) above an open grill

For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain the safety distances
recommended by the cooktop
manufacturer in their installation and
operating instructions.

If there is more than one appliance
beneath the hood and they have
different minimum safety distances
always select the greater distance.

See "Warning and Safety
instructions" for further information.

26" (65 cm) is recommended for all
installations to allow for optimum work
space under the hood.

Read the entire installation procedures
and determine height (

S

) before

beginning the installation. Installation
producers differ depending on the
model and venting method.
If the hood is fitted flush to the ceiling
make sure that the remaining distance
to the ceiling is not greater or less than
appliance height H.
