Miele Ventilation Hood Operations Instructions download pdf (Page 6)

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.
