Energy Saving Tips - Miele ProLine CSDA 1010 Operating And Installation Instructions

Energy saving tips

This downdraft extractor operates very
efficiently and economically. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
– Ensure that there is sufficient
ventilation in the kitchen when
cooking. In extraction mode if there is
insufficient air flow, the downdraft
extractor cannot operate efficiently
and this causes increased operating
noise levels.
– Always cook with the lowest possible
setting. This produces fewer cooking
vapours, so you can use a lower
downdraft extractor power level and
therefore benefit from reduced
energy consumption.
– Check the power level selected on
the downdraft extractor. A lower
power level is generally sufficient for
the majority of cooking. Only use the
Booster setting when necessary.
– When a large volume of cooking
vapours are being produced, switch
to a high power level in good time.
This is more efficient than operating
the downdraft extractor for longer to
try to capture cooking vapours which
have already been distributed
throughout the kitchen.
– Make sure that you switch the
downdraft extractor off after use.
– Clean or change the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
