All ducting, pipework and fittings
must be of non-flammable material.
These can be obtained from the Miele

Installation
Installation instructions
See enclosed installation sheet for in-

ance.
Before installation it is important to read
the information given on the following
pages as well as the "Appliance dimen-
sions" and "Warning and Safety instruc-
tions" at the beginning of this book.
Dismantling
Should the appliance ever need to be
dismantled, follow the installation in-

Connection for air extraction
Important:
If the exhaust ducting is to run through
rooms, ceiling space etc. where there
may be great variations in temperature
between the different areas, the prob-
lem of sweating or condensation will
need to be addressed. The exhaust
ducting will need to be suitably insu-
lated.
Condensate trap
In addition to insulating the exhaust
ducting we recommend that a suitable
condensate trap is also installed to col-
lect and evaporate any condensate
which may occur.
