Miele DA 262 i Operating Instructions Manual page 9

When using the cooker hood at the
same time as another heating ap-
pliance which depends on the air in the
room, (e.g. gas, oil or coal fired
heaters, continuous flow or other water
heaters, gas cooker, gas hob or gas
oven) special care must be taken, as
the action of the cooker hood extracts
air from the room, which these types of
heater need for combustion.
In order to ensure safe operation, and
to prevent the gases given off by the
heating appliances from being drawn
back into the room when the extractor
and the heater are in operation simulta-
neously, an underpressure in the room
of 0.04 mbar (4 pa) is the maximum
permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by air in-
lets which cannot be blocked, in win-
dows, doors and outside wall vents, or
by other techical measures, such as en-
suring that the extractor can only be
switched on when the heating ap-
pliance is switched off or vice-versa.
N.B.: The overall ventilation condition of
the dwelling must be taken into ac-
count.
If in any doubt, the advice of a compe-
tent builder or, for gas, a "Corgi" instal-
ler must be sought.
If the cooker hood is operated in recir-
culation mode (with active charcoal fil-
ter) then this is not a factor.
Warning and Safety instructions
Disposal of an old machine /
appliance

unplug it. Render the plug useless.

pliance to prevent misuse.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-

by non-observance of these instruc-
tions.
