Air Extraction - Miele DA 408 Operating And Installation Instructions

Air extraction
_WARNING
Danger of toxic fumes.
Gas cooking appliances release
carbon monoxide that can be
harmful or fatat if inhaled.
The exhaust gases extracted by
the hood shoutd be vented
outside of the buitding onty.
Do not terminate the exhaust
ducts in attics, garages,
crawispaces, etc.
To reduce the risk of fire, only use
metal ductwork.
Please read and follow the
"IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS" to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Follow all local building
codes when installing the hood.
Exhaust ducting and connections
- The ducting should be as short and
straight as possible, and the number
of sharp bends should be minimized.
- For efficient air extraction, the
diameter of the ductwork should not
be less than 6" (150 ram). Use of flat
ducts also reduces the air extraction
efficiency.
- Noise levels of the hood will increase
if flat ducts or round ducts of less
than 6" (!50 ram) in diameter are
used.
- Use smooth or flexible pipes made
from approved non-flammable
materials for exhaust ducting.
- Where the ductwork is horizontal, it
must slope away from the hood at
least 1/,, per foot (! cm per meter) to
J8
prevent condensation from dripping
into the appliance.
- If the exhaust is ducted through an
outside wall, a Miele Telescopic Wall
Vent can be used.
