Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
Disposal of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain materials which, if handled
or disposed of incorrectly, could be
potentially hazardous to human health
and to the environment. They are,
however, essential for the correct
functioning of your appliance. Please
do not therefore dispose of it with your
household waste.
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre or contact your dealer for
advice. Ensure that it presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
Take care not to damage the pipework
at the back of it before or during
transportation to an authorised
collection depot.
In this way, refrigerant in the pipework
and oil in the compressor will be
contained, and will not leak out into the
environment.

This appliance complies with all statutory safety requirements.
Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and
damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance,
please read these instructions carefully before installation and
before using it for the first time. They contain important
information on installation, safety, use and maintenance.

Warning and Safety instructions
Danger of suffocation. Packaging, e.g. plastic wrappings, must
~
be kept out of the reach of babies and children. Whilst playing,
children could become entangled in packaging or pull it over their
head and suffocate.
Technical safety
The coolant system is tested for leaks. The appliance complies
~
with statutory safety requirements and the appropriate EU
guidelines.
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural
~
gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it
does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the
greenhouse effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led to a
slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the
noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant
flowing around the system. This is unavoidable, and does not have
any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance.
Care must be taken during the transportation and installation of the
appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking
refrigerant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid any flames or anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply,
– ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several
minutes, and
– call the Service Department.

Warning and Safety instructions
The more coolant there is in an appliance, the larger the room it
~
should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in
a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m3 of room space is required. The
amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside
the appliance.
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the
~
connection data (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) on the data
plate corresponds to the household supply.
Check that this is the case before connecting the appliance. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
~
when it is correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety
requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
~
by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from
danger.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a
~
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Do not use in a damp environment (e.g. garage or utility room).
~
Moisture could reach live components or the electrical connection
and cause a short circuit.
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.

Storing food in the refrigerator
Different storage zones
Warmest area
Due to the natural circulation of the air
in the appliance, there are different
temperature zones in the refrigerator.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest
section of the appliance. Make use of
the different zones when placing food
in the appliance.
The warmest area is in the top section
at the front and in the door. Use this for
storing butter and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area is directly above the
fruit and vegetable containers or above
the fruit and vegetable drawers
(depending on model) and at the back
of the appliance.
This appliance has dynamic cooling,
which helps to keep an even
temperature when the fan is running.
For this reason, the difference
between the various zones is less
pronounced.
Use this for all delicate and highly
perishable food, e.g.
– fish, meat, poultry,
– sausage products, ready meals,
– dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
– fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough,
– soft cheese and other dairy
products,
– pre-packed vegetables and other
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 °C.

Storing food in the refrigerator
Food which is not suitable for
storing in the refrigerator
Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products
containing propellants (e.g. spray
cans). Danger of explosion.
Not all food is suitable for storing in a
refrigerator at temperatures below 5 °C,
as some food is sensitive to cold. The
appearance, consistency, taste and / or
the vitamin content of certain foods can
be adversely affected by being stored
in too cold a place.
If storing alcohol with a high
percentage proof, make sure it is
tightly closed, and store upright.
If storing food which contains a lot of
fat or oil in the appliance or the door,
make sure it does not come into
contact with plastic components as
this could cause stress cracks or
break the plastic.
Food which does not tolerate cold
temperatures includes:
– Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangos, melons,
papayas, passion fruit,
citrus fruit (such as lemons, oranges,
mandarins, grapefruit),
Food must not touch the back wall of
the appliance, as it may freeze to
the back wall.
– Fruit which is not yet ripe,
– Aubergines/egg plant, cucumber,
potatoes, peppers/capiscum,
tomatoes, courgettes/zucchini,
To allow air to circulate efficiently,
do not pack food too closely
together in the refrigerator. Do not
cover the fan in the rear wall of the
refrigerator, as this is essential for
keeping the appliance cool.
– Some hard cheeses, e.g. Parmesan.

Automatic defrosting
The refrigerator section defrosts
automatically.
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the refrigerator section
whilst the compressor is running. You
do not need to remove this, as it will
defrost and evaporate automatically
with the warmth generated by the
compressor.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are kept clean and
are never blocked so that
condensate can flow away without
hindrance.
