Using the freezer efficiently  
Freezing food  
Placing food in the freezer  
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly  
as possible. This helps maintain the  
nutritional value, vitamin content,  
appearance and taste of the food.  
Food to be frozen can be placed  
anywhere in the freezer.  
The freezer baskets can hold a  
maximum of 35 lbs (16 kg) of frozen  
food.  
Never refreeze partially or fully  
defrosted food. Consume defrosted  
food as soon as possible, it will lose its  
nutritional value and spoil if left for too  
long. Do not refreeze defrosted food  
unless it has been cooked.  
^ Spread the food to be frozen across  
the bottom of the freezer basket or  
across the shelves, so that it will  
freeze through to the core as quickly  
as possible.  
Before placing food in the freezer  
^ When placing items in the freezer,  
make sure the packaging and  
^ When you are planning to freeze  
large amounts of food (more than  
4 ½ lbs [2 kg]), switch on the  
SuperCool function ahead of time  
(see "SuperCool").  
containers are dry, to keep them from  
sticking together when frozen.  
When freezing, try not to let frozen  
food come into contact with fresh  
food, this could cause the frozen  
food to defrost.  
This will provide the food already in  
the freezer with a protective boost of  
cold air.

Defrosting  
Cooling drinks quickly  
Frozen food can be defrosted in  
different ways:  
To cool drinks quickly, switch on the  
SuperCool function. See "SuperCool" for  
more information.  
– in a microwave oven,  
– at room temperature,  
Do not leave bottles in the freezer for  
more than 1 hour, closed containers  
could burst.  
– in the refrigerator (the cold given off  
by the frozen food helps to keep the  
other food cold),  
– in a steam oven.  
Poultry It is especially important to  
observe proper hygiene when  
defrosting poultry. Never save the liquid  
from defrosted poultry. Drain it away  
and promptly wash the container, the  
sink and your hands. Danger of  
salmonella poisoning.  
Fruit should be defrosted at room  
temperature in its packaging, or in a  
covered bowl.  
Most vegetables can be cooked while  
still frozen. Simply place directly into  
boiling water or hot oil.

Using the freezer efficiently  
Freezing tips  
– Do not place hot foods or drinks in  
the freezer. This causes already  
frozen food to thaw, and increases  
the energy consumption  
– The following are examples of foods  
suitable for freezing:  
Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish,  
vegetables, herbs, fresh fruit,  
pastry/dough, leftovers, and a range  
of pre-cooked meals.  
considerably. Allow hot foods and  
drinks to cool down before placing  
them in the freezer.  
– The following examples of foods not  
suitable for freezing:  
Packing tips  
^ Unsuitable packing material  
- wrapping paper  
Lettuce, radishes, sour cream,  
mayonnaise, eggs in their shells,  
onions, whole raw apples and pears.  
- greaseproof paper  
- cellophane  
– To retain color, taste and vitamin C,  
vegetables should be trimmed,  
washed, and blanched.  
- garbage bags  
- plastic shopping bags  
To blanch: bring a large saucepan of  
water to a boil, then submerge the  
vegetables in rapidly boiling water  
for 2-3 minutes, depending on type.  
Remove, and plunge into ice-cold  
water to cool quickly. Drain and pack  
for freezing.  
Suitable packing material  
- plastic freezer bags/wrap  
- aluminum foil  
- freezer containers  
^ To help prevent freezer burn, expel  
as much air as possible from  
bags, etc., before sealing them.  
– Lean meat freezes better than fatty  
meat, and can be stored for  
considerably longer.  
^ Close the packaging tightly with  
- plastic clips  
- twist ties  
– To prevent chops, steaks, cutlets or  
rolled meats from freezing together in  
solid blocks when packed, separate  
with a sheet of plastic freezer wrap.  
- rubber bands  
^ Mark the package to indicate the  
contents and the date of freezing.  
– Do not season fresh foods or  
blanched vegetables before  
freezing. Cooked food can be lightly  
seasoned before freezing, but care  
should be taken as the taste of some  
spices alters when frozen.

SuperCool  
When the SuperCool function is  
activated, the appliance is cooled as  
cold as possible (to a factory-preset  
temperature).  
Switching off SuperCool  
The SuperCool function automatically  
switches off after approx. 52 hours. The  
sensor button turns white, and the  
appliance continues running at normal  
power.  
SuperCool  
The SuperCool function is ideal for  
freezing large quantities of unfrozen  
food. Ideally the function should be  
switched on 4 - 6 hours before the food  
is placed in the freezer.  
To save energy, you can switch off the  
SuperCool function once the food is  
sufficiently chilled.  
If the max. freezing capacity is used,  
24 hours are recommended.  
This helps food to freeze quickly and  
retain its nutrients, vitamins, flavor and  
appearance.  
^ Touch the SuperCool sensor so that it  
turns white.  
The temperature display returns to the  
original temperature setting.  
Switching on SuperCool  
The appliance now continues running  
at normal power.  
^ Touch the SuperCool sensor so that  
it turns yellow.  
The temperature now begins to fall, with  
maximum cooling performance.  
The new temperature setting appears in  
the display -22°F (-30°C).

fall into the ice cube container.  
When the ice cube container is full, the  
ice maker switches off automatically.  
Keep fingers clear of the dispenser  
opening. Risk of injury!  
The ice cube maker produces:  
– cold water  
– ice cubes  
– crushed ice.  
^ Be sure the ice cube container is  
under the ice maker and has been  
inserted as far as possible.  
Do not place any bottles or food for  
rapid cooling in the ice cube  
container. The ice maker could  
become blocked or damaged.  
^ Open the freezer door.  
^ Touch the "ice" button so it turns  
yellow.  
^ Close the freezer door.

Ice/Water Dispenser  
The ice cube maker can produce  
approx. 150 ice cubes within 24  
hours.  
As soon as the drip tray indicator  
signals that the drip tray is full, the  
current operation will automatically  
stop.  
The amount of ice cubes produced  
depends on the temperature in the  
freezer section. The lower the  
temperature, the more ice cubes will  
be produced in a given period of  
time.  
Empty out the drip tray using a  
sponge or dish towel.  
If the ice/water dispenser is not used  
for more than 2 minutes or the  
freezer door is opened, Standby  
mode is activated and the lighting  
for the ice/water dispenser will go  
out.  
After the appliance is turned on for the  
very first time, it can take up to 24 hours  
for the first ice cubes to drop out of the  
ice cube maker and collect in the  
container.  
Whenever the appliance has been  
out of service for an extended  
period of time discard the ice/water  
production of the first 24 hours after  
switching on the ice/water  
dispenser!

Water filter  
The water filter improves the taste and  
smell of ice cubes by removing chlorine  
and other substances from the  
incoming tap water.  
– Depending on how many ice cubes  
are produced, the filter will need to  
be changed approximately every 6  
months.  
It is important to change the water  
filter regularly.  
– When the filter indicator turns red,  
the filter will need to be changed  
soon.  
To avoid serious illness or death, do  
not use water that is  
microbiologically or chemically  
unsafe or of unknown quality without  
adequate disinfection or other  
treatment before or after use of a  
filter.  
Replacement filters can be ordered  
from Miele.  
– When the red filter indicator flashes,  
it is time to change the filter.  
Note:  
– After installing a new water filter and  
switching on the ice maker, discard  
the first 24 hours' worth of ice  
production.  
– If the ice maker has not been used  
for a prolonged time discard any ice  
cubes in the freezer, empty the  
container and discard the ice  
production of the next 24 hours.  
– If the appliance or ice maker have  
not been routinely used for several  
weeks or months, or if the ice cubes  
have an unpleasant odor, change  
the water filter.  
Note: Air trapped in the system may  
cause water and the filter cartridge  
to eject forcefully. Use caution when  
removing.
