Extraction performance and installation flexibility
The hood offers three standard extraction levels plus a booster setting, reaching 640m³/h in ducted mode. That gives it the capacity to deal with substantial cooking vapours, while the lower settings provide more measured everyday ventilation.
It can be installed for ducted extraction or recirculation, although the recirculation conversion kit and charcoal filter are optional. Top and rear duct connections, together with a 150mm connection diameter, provide useful installation flexibility.
Controls, lighting and connected features
Light-touch controls with LED indicators keep the core functions straightforward, with three fan speeds and a booster. The booster switch-off can be programmed, and filter saturation indicators can be configured for the grease and charcoal filters.
Four dimmable 3W LED lights illuminate the hob area at 650 lux. Miele@home and Con@ctivity 3.0 compatibility can add app-based control and automatic fan adjustment when paired with compatible Miele appliances.
Cleaning and efficiency
The CleanCover creates a smooth, sealed surface behind the filters, helping make the interior easier to wipe and shielding key electrical and motor components. Two dishwasher-safe 10-ply stainless steel grease filters further reduce routine cleaning effort.
An A+ energy rating, annual consumption of 28.60kWh and Class A ratings for fluid dynamic, lighting and grease-filtering efficiency make this a particularly efficient integrated hood on the supplied specifications.
