IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Installation

,WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire only use metal ductwork.

When installing the hood, follow the recommended minimum safety

distances between a Miele cooktop and the hood:

–22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops,

–26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops,

–26" (65 cm) above an open grill.

If local building codes require a greater safety distance, follow their requirement.

For non-Miele cooking appliances maintain the safety distances recommended by the appliance manufacturer.

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

Be careful not to damage hidden electrical wiring or plumbing when

cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling.

Do not use an extension cord to connect the appliance to electricity.

Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance, (e.g. danger of overheating).

Do not install this hood over cooktops burning solid fuel.

Any fittings, sealant, or materials used to install the ductwork must be made of approved non-flammable

materials.

Never connect an exhaust hood to an active chimney, dryer vent, vent flue, or room ventilating ductwork. Seek professional advice before connecting

an exhaust hood vent to an existing, inactive chimney or vent flue.

Ducted fans must always be vented outdoors.

Make sure that the airflow in the room is sufficient for combustion

and exhausting of all non-electric heating appliances (water heaters, gas cooktops, gas ovens, etc.), otherwise backdrafts may occur. Follow the heating manufacturer’s guidelines and safety standards or those published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), or the American Society for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE).

If in doubt, consult an experienced professional.

In terms of design, both models feature a minimalist and elegant aesthetic that seamlessly integrates into any modern kitchen décor. The stainless steel construction not only adds a contemporary look but also ensures durability and resistance to staining and rust. The easy-to-clean surfaces make it convenient for homeowners to maintain their hoods in pristine condition.
