Functional Description - Miele DA 5960 W Operating And Installation Instructions

The ventilation hood offers two modes of operation:
Air extraction
The air is drawn in and cleaned by the
grease filter and directed outside.
The hood comes equipped with a
non-return flap. This flap automatically
closes when the hood is turned off so
that no exchange of outside air and
room air can occur.
When the hood is turned on, the air
pressure of the exhaust fan auto-
matically opens the flap blowing the
inside air and cooking odors outside.

Functional description

Recirculation mode
Air is drawn through the grease filter
and active charcoal filter. The filtered
air is then recirculated back into the
kitchen through a vent at the top of the
hood's chimney.
The active charcoal filter and the
installation kit may be purchased from
your Miele.
Before using the hood in
recirculation mode, ensure that the
active charcoal filter is in place, see
"Cleaning and Care".
