Miele KS 37472 iD Operating And Installation Instructions page 64

Installation
– Air intake  occurs via the plinth at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top  at the back
of the housing unit.
– A ventilation gap of at least 40 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
– The ventilation gaps in the plinth,
housing unit and above the appliance
must amount to a free airflow of at
least 200 cm² to ensure that air can
circulate without hindrance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the
ventilation gaps must be larger than
200 cm². The unobstructed airflow of
200 cm² is calculated by adding up
the total area of ventilation openings
in the grilles.
– Important! The larger the ventilation
gaps, the less energy the appliance
will use.

The air inlet and outlet must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
must also be cleaned on a regular
basis to remove dust.
Top ventilation cross-section
The top ventilation cross-section can be
achieved in various ways:
a directly above the appliance with a
ventilation grille (free airflow of at
least 200 cm²)
b between the kitchen furniture and
the ceiling
c in a suspended ceiling
