Tips On Saving Energy - Miele SmartLine CSDA 7000 FL Operating And Installation Instructions

This downdraft extractor operates very
efficiently and economically. The
following will help you to save even
more energy when using it:
– It is important to ensure that the
kitchen is well ventilated during
operation. 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
cooking setting. This produces fewer
cooking vapours, so you can use a
lower extractor power level and
therefore benefit from reduced energy
consumption.
– Check the selected power level on
the downdraft extractor. A low power
level is usually sufficient. 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.
– Switch the downdraft extractor off
after cooking.
– Clean or replace the filters at regular
intervals. Heavily soiled filters reduce
performance, increase the risk of fire
and are unhygienic.
