FAQs

How do I clean the grease filters?

The stainless steel grease filters are dishwasher-safe. Refer to your dishwasher's instructions for appropriate settings. Miele recommends cleaning the filters every few weeks or when the filter indicator lights up.

How often do I need to replace the charcoal filter?

The charcoal filter, if used, should be replaced approximately every 120-240 hours of use, or when the filter replacement indicator activates. The exact time depends on your cooking habits.

What is Con@ctivity?

Con@ctivity is Miele's technology that allows the hood to communicate with a compatible hob. The hood automatically adjusts its fan speed based on the hob's settings.

Can I use the hood in recirculation mode?

Yes, but you will need to purchase a recirculation kit (charcoal filters and the necessary accessories) separately.

What is the warranty period?

Miele products typically come with a 2-year warranty. Check the warranty documentation included with your hood for specific details.

What is Miele CleanCover?

Miele CleanCover is a sealed, smooth surface located behind the grease filters, designed to protect electrical components and motor from grease and other debris, as well as providing easy cleaning.

How do I adjust the fan speed?

You can adjust the fan speed using the control buttons on the hood or through the remote control. If your hob has Con@ctivity, the fan speed may be adjusted automatically.

Where can I find replacement filters?

Replacement grease and charcoal filters can be purchased from Miele authorized dealers or their website.

Troubleshooting

Hood is not turning on.

Check the power connection and ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped. If the problem persists, contact a qualified technician.

Poor extraction performance.

Check if the grease filters are clean. Inspect the ductwork for blockages. Ensure the hood is installed at the correct height above your cooktop.

Hood is noisy.

Ensure the ductwork is properly connected and sealed. Check for any obstructions in the fan. The use of high fan speeds will naturally produce more noise. Clean the grease filter.

Con@ctivity not working.

Check the Wi-Fi connection between the hood and the hob. Ensure both appliances are compatible and that the settings are correctly configured. Consult the Miele support.

Remote control not functioning.

Replace the remote control batteries. Ensure the remote is paired with the hood according to the setup instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Professional Installation: Due to its design, the Miele DAC4940 Stella Ambient requires professional installation. Consult a qualified installer to ensure proper placement, electrical connections, and ducting.
Ducting/Recirculation: Determine your ventilation needs. The hood can be used with ducting (for external exhaust) or in recirculation mode (with a charcoal filter). If using recirculation, install the charcoal filter following the manufacturer's instructions. Note: Charcoal filter is not included.
Con@ctivity Setup: If your hob has Con@ctivity capabilities, follow the Miele instructions to connect the hood to your hob's Wi-Fi network. This allows automatic fan speed control.
Remote Control: Pair the included remote control with the hood, if desired, for convenient operation.

Compatibility:

Compatible with standard 230V electrical systems.
Works with both ducted and recirculating systems. Requires a recirculation kit (sold separately) for recirculating use.
Compatible with Miele hobs featuring Con@ctivity.

Care:

Grease Filters: Clean the stainless steel grease filters regularly (dishwasher-safe). A filter cleaning indicator will alert you when cleaning is needed.
Charcoal Filter (Recirculation): Replace the charcoal filter as indicated by the filter replacement indicator or approximately every 120-240 hours of use, depending on usage. The indicator can be customized.
Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the hood's exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Cleaning the CleanCover: The CleanCover can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
