Cleaning and care

Fitting and replacing the charcoal filter

If the rangehood is connected for recirculation, a charcoal filter must be inserted in addition to the grease filters. It is designed to absorb cooking odours.

It is fitted in the canopy above the grease filters.

New filters can be purchased from your Miele Chartered Agent or from Miele.

See back cover for contact details, and "Technical data" for the model number of the filter.

￿Before fitting or replacing a charcoal filter, the grease filters must first be taken out (see previous section for instructions on how to do this).

￿Take the charcoal filter out of its packaging.

￿Insert the charcoal filter into the back of the charcoal filter frame, then push up into the frame at the front.

When fitting for the first time:

￿Set the operating hours counter to suit your requirements (see "Operation").

Always replace the charcoal filter im- mediately if

the indicator lamp for the charcoal filter touch control lights up,

or

if it is no longer effective in absorbing kitchen odours.

It should, however, be replaced at least every 6 months.

Used charcoal filters can be disposed of with the normal household waste.

￿After fitting the new charcoal filter, press the charcoal filter touch control for approximately 3 seconds to re-set the operating hours counter.

The indicator lamp will go out.

If a charcoal filter is replaced before the operating hours counter has reached its maximum, the charcoal filter touch control should be pressed for approximately 6 seconds to reset the counter.
