Proper installation

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK,OR INJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

– a) Installation work and electrical wiring must be done by qualifiedperson(s) in accordance with all applicable codes and standards,including fire-rated construction.

– b) Sufficient air is needed for combustion and exhausting of gasesthrough the flue (chimney of fuel burning equipment to preventback drafting. Follow the heating equipment manufacturer’sguideline and safety standards such as those published by theNational Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and the AmericanSociety for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

– c) When cutting or drilling into the wall or ceiling, do not damageelectrical wiring and other hidden utilities.

– d) Ducted hoods must always be vented to the outdoors.

– e) Do not use this hood with any solid-state speed control device.

To determine whether a ventilation hood may be operated aboveyour cooking appliance, please refer to the information provided bythe appliance's manufacturer.

Safety regulations prohibit the installation of a ventilation hoodabove solid fuel stoves.

Insufficient distance between the cooking appliance and theventilation hood can result in damage to the hood.The minimum safety distances between the appliance and thebottom of the ventilation hood specified in the "Installation" sectionmust be maintained, unless the appliance's manufacturer hasindicated that a greater distance is required.If more than one cooking appliance is used beneath the ventilationhood, and if different minimum safety distances apply for theseappliances, you should use the greater distance.


11

Be sure to observe the information contained in the "Installation"section when mounting the ventilation hood.

Metal parts can have sharp edges which may cause injury.Wear gloves to protect your hands from being cut.

When installing the exhaust duct, only use pipes or tubes made ofnon-flammable material. These can be obtained from your Mieledealer or from Miele Technical Service.

Exhaust air should not be vented into a chimney or vent flue whichis otherwise in use and should not be channeled into ducting whichventilates rooms with fuel-burning installations.

If exhaust air is to be extracted into a chimney or vent flue nolonger used for other purposes, be sure to comply with all applicableregulations.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE USE ONLY METALDUCTWORK.

Operation

16

Switch on the blowerPower levels 1 to 3 are available for lightto heavy cooking vapors and odors.

If heavy cooking vapors and odorsoccur temporarily, e.g., during frying,select stage B as booster level.

Use the blower switch to turn onthe blower and select the appropriatepower level.

Cooking at a high setting causesvery high temperatures at theventilation hood.Excessive temperatures maydamage the ventilation hood.

Always switch on the ventilation hoodwhen using the cooktop.Particularly when using gas cooktops,one of the following blower levelsshould be selected depending onwhich cooking level is selected.

The ventilation hood is fitted with atemperature sensor. If a blower levelthat is too low is selected, theventilation hood automaticallyswitches temporarily to the boosterlevel. This occurs even if theventilation hood is switched off.

Operation

17

Turning off the blowerIt is advisable to run the blower for afew minutes after cooking has finishedto neutralize any lingering vapors andodors in the air.

To turn the blower off, turn the blowerswitch to 0.

Turning the overhead lightingon/offThe overhead lighting can be turned onand off independently from the blower.

Use the light switch to turn theoverhead lighting on (1) and off (0).

Energy-saving tips

18

This hood operates in a very efficientand energy-saving manner. Thefollowing will help you to save evenmore energy when using it:

– Ensure that there is sufficientventilation in the kitchen whencooking. If there is insufficient air flowduring vented mode, the hoodcannot operate efficiently, causingincreased operating noise levels.

– Always cook with the lowest possiblesetting. This produces fewer cookingvapors so that you can use a lowerhood power level and thereforebenefit from reduced energyconsumption.

– When a large volume of cookingvapors are being produced, switch toa high power level in good time. Thisis more efficient than operating thehood for longer to try to capturecooking vapors that have alreadybeen distributed throughout thekitchen.

– Make sure that you switch off thehood after use.

– Clean or change the filters at regularintervals. Heavily soiled filters reduceperformance, increase the risk of fireand are unhygienic.

Please observe the conversioninstructions for the jet kits as well asthe operating and installationinstruction for the Range/Rangetop.

To identify the S distance please usetable on previous page.

Installation recommendations– A distance of at least 26" (660 mm) is

recommended above electriccooktops to provide more workspaceand easier cooking under the hood.

– When selecting an installation height,always take the user height intoconsideration. Users should haveample space to work comfortably onthe cooktop and reach the ventilationhood controls with ease.

– Please note that the greater thedistance from the cooktop, the lesseffective the hood is at drawing in thecooking vapors.

– To achieve optimum vapor extraction,the hood must be centered over thecooktop, not to the side.

– The cooktop should be no wider thanthe hood. Preferably, it should benarrower for better extraction.

– The mounting area must be easilyaccessible. The ventilation hoodshould be easy to reach anddisassemble in case a service call isnecessary. This should be taken intoconsideration when planning theposition of cabinetry, shelves,ceilings or decorative elements in thevicinity of the ventilation hood.

Installation

34

Plywood backing

The majority of the weight of theinstalled ventilation system will besupported by the lower retainingplate. It must be firmly attached tothe stud framing behind the drywall.If studs are not available in therequired locations, a plywoodbacking (min. ½" (13 mm) thick)spanning at least two studs must beinstalled.Failure to adequately support theweight as stated may result in theventilation system falling off the wall,causing personal injury and propertydamage.

If plywood backing is not needed,proceed to the included "Installationdiagram".

To install a plywood backing

Determine and mark the location forthe canopy as outlined in"Appliance dimensions".

Make a cutting line 3" (76 mm) aboveand 3" (76 mm) below the outline ofthe canopy.

Find the studs to the left and rightof the mounting location by tappingthe wall or using a stud finder.

Mark a vertical cutting line along thecenter of each stud.

CAUTION: When cutting or drillinginto the wall or ceiling, do notdamage electrical wiring and otherhidden utilities.

Remove the drywall between thecutting lines and replace it withplywood of a matching thickness(min. ½" (13 mm) thick). Tape thejoints and refinish the wall.

Proceed to the enclosed "Installationdiagram" to complete the installation.

Air venting

35

WARNING: Danger of toxic fumes.Gas cooking appliances releasecarbon monoxide that can beharmful or fatal if inhaled.To reduce the risk of fire and toproperly exhaust air, the exhaustgases extracted by the hood shouldbe vented outside of the buildingonly.Do not vent exhaust air into spaceswithin walls or ceilings or in attics,crawl spaces or garages.To reduce the risk of fire, only usemetal ductwork.Please read and follow the"IMPORTANT SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the riskof personal injury. Follow all localbuilding codes when installing thehood.

The exhaust air adapter of theventilation hood depends on the blowerused:

– DRIB/DREB XL: 8" (203 mm)

– DRIB/DREB XXL: 10" (254 mm)

Only use smooth pipes or flexibleduct hoses made from non-combustible materials for exhaustduct.

To achieve the greatest possible airextraction with the lowest noise levels,please observe the following:

– The cross-section of the exhaustduct must not be smaller than thecross-section of the vent collar (seeappliance dimensions).

– The exhaust duct should be as shortand straight as possible.

– If elbows are needed, make sure theyhave a large radius.

– The exhaust duct must not be kinkedor compressed. When selecting theexhaust duct, ensure that it is rigidenough to retain its shape duringoperation.

– Make sure that all connections aresecure and airtight.

Any constriction of the airflow willreduce extraction performance andincrease operating noise.

If the exhaust air is to be ducted intoa flue, the duct must be directed inthe flow direction of the flue.

Air venting

When duct is horizontal it must belaid to slope away at at least ¹/₈ inchper foot. This is to ensure thatcondensate cannot drain back intothe appliance.

If the exhaust duct is to be routedthrough rooms, ceiling space etc., thetemperatures in these different areasmay differ greatly, which means thatthe problem of condensation willneed to be addressed. The exhaustduct will need to be insulated.

Installation of a non-return flap in theexhaust duct is recommended. Itensures that air, once ducted to theoutside, cannot get back into theroom again.
