Miele DA 229-2 - Manual (Page 4)

This equipment is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans or air-
craft. However, under certain conditions
it may be possible for an installation in
these applications. Please contact the
nearest Miele dealer or the Miele Tech-
nical Service Department with specific
requirements.
Before servicing, disconnect the
power supply by either removing
the fuse, unplugging the unit or manu-
ally "tripping" the circuit breaker.
Before discarding an old appli-
ance, unplug it from the power
supply and remove the power cord and
any doors to prevent hazards.
Use
Do not allow children to play with
or operate the appliance or its con-
trols. Supervise its use by the elderly or
infirm.
Be careful when preparing a
flambé beneath the hood.
Flames may be drawn up into the hood
by the suction or grease filters may
catch fire.
Never operate gas burners without
pots.
Do not leave cooking surfaces un-
attended while in use. Overheated
food, oil and grease can catch fire.
Do not use the hood without the
grease filters in place.
Clean the grease filters regularly.
Dirty filters are a fire hazard.
Do not use a steam cleaner to
clean the hood. Steam could pene-
trate electrical components and cause
a short circuit.
In areas subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other pest, keep
the appliance and its surroundings
clean at all times. Any damage caused
by cockroaches or other pest will not
be covered under warranty.
Installation
When installing the hood, make
sure that the following minimum
safety distances between Miele
cooktops and the hood are maintained.
– 22" (55 cm) above electric cooktops
– 26" (65 cm) above gas cooktops
– 26" (65 cm) above an open grill
For non-Miele cooking appliances
maintain the safety distances recom-
mended by the cooktop manufacturer
in their installation and operating in-
structions.
If there is more than one appliance be-
neath the hood and they have different
minimum safety distances always se-
lect the greater distance.
