Modes of operation
Depending on the model of the cooker
hood, the following options are
available:
Extraction mode
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter and directed outside.
Non-return flap
A non-return flap fitted in the vent
system ensures that when the cooker
hood is not in operation the duct is
closed and no exchange of room air
and outside air can take place.
The flap is closed when the cooker
hood is switched off.
When the cooker hood is switched on,
the non-return flap opens for the
cooking vapours to be blown directly
outside.
If the on-site ventilation system does
not have a non-return flap, one is
supplied with the cooker hood. It must
be fitted in the exhaust socket on the
motor unit.

Recirculation mode
Recirculation mode cooker hoods
require a conversion kit and charcoal
filters (see "Technical Data")
The air is drawn in and cleaned first by
the grease filter and then by the
charcoal filters. The cleaned air is then
recirculated back into the kitchen.
Operation with an external
motor
(EXT/EXTA model cooker hoods)
Cooker hoods designed for use with an
external motor have to be connected to
a Miele external motor located in a
position of your choice outside the
room. The external motor is connected
to the cooker hood by means of a
control cable and is operated via
Con@ctivity or by the control elements
on the cooker hood.
