Warning and Safety instructions
11

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.
Correct installation

Refer to the cooker or hob manufacturer's instructions as to
whether a cooker hood may be operated above the cooker/hob.

Safety regulations prohibit the fitting of a cooker hood over solid
fuel stoves.

Insufficient distance between the cooker or hob and the cooker
hood can result in damage to the hood.
The minimum safety distances between the top of the cooker or hob
and the bottom of the cooker hood given in the "Installation" section
must be maintained, unless the hob manufacturer states that a
greater 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.

The distances given in "Installation" must be observed when
fitting the cooker hood.

Exhaust ducting must be of non-inflammable material. Suitable
material is available from Miele specialist dealers or the Miele Spares
Dept.

The appliance must not be connected to a chimney or 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.
