Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
material
Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances contain materials which
can be reclaimed or recycled. Please
contact your dealer, your waste collec-
tion centre or scrap merchant about
potential recycling schemes.
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Make sure that the pipework is not
damaged whilst moving an old appli-
ance. This is to ensure that the refriger-
ant and oil in the compressor cannot
leak into the environment. It is important
that they are disposed of in a safe
manner by authorised persons only.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Ensure that the appliance presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
See the appropriate section in the
Warning and safety instructions.

Warning and safety instructions
Technical safety
This appliance complies with all
relevant legal safety requirements.
Improper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both per-
sonal injury and material damage.
This appliance contains the coolant
Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas
which is very environment friendly.
Although it is flammable, it does not
damage the ozone layer and does not
increase the green house effect. The
use of this environment friendly 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, but does not have any
adverse effect on the performance of
the appliance.
Care must be taken during transporta-
tion and setting up of the appliance that
no parts of the cooling system are
damaged. Leaking coolant can
damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid open fires
Before installation and before using
for the first time, read the operating
instructions carefully. They contain
important notes on safety, the opera-
tion and care of the appliance. This
way you will avoid the risk of acci-
dents and damage to the appliance.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any
future user.
Correct usage
This appliance is intended for
domestic use only for the cool
storage of foodstuffs.
Any other usage is not supported by
the manufacturer and could be danger-
ous. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
and anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect from the mains,
– air the room in which the appliance is
located for several minutes and
– contact the Service Department.
for advice.
The more refrigerant 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 combusti-
ble gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m3
room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.

by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the appliance guarantee.
Do not use defrosting sprays, or
de-icers as they could contain
substances which could damage the
plastic parts and which may cause the
build up of gases and pose a danger to
health.
Do not use any grease or oil on the
door seals. These cause the seals
to become porous in the course of time.
Disposal of old appliances
Before disposing of an old appli-
ance first make the door latch or
lock unusable.
This way you will prevent children from
accidentally locking themselves in and
endangering their lives.
Do not block the ventilation gaps in
the plinth or the top of the appli-
ance housing unit as this would impair
the efficiency of the appliance, increase
the electricity consumption and could
cause damage to the appliance.
Before disposing of an old
appliance, unplug it and render the
plug useless. Cut off the cable directly
behind the appliance and at the plug to
prevent misuse.
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges
(ambient temperatures). It must not be
used in ranges for which it is not
designed. The climate range for your
appliance is stated on the data plate
inside the appliance. Installing it in a
room with too low an ambient tempera-
ture will lead to the appliance switching
off for longer periods so that it cannot
maintain the required temperature.
Be careful not to damage any part
of the pipework whilst awaiting
disposal, e.g. by
– puncturing the refrigerant channels
in the evaporator.
– bending any pipework.
– scratching the surface coating.
Never use steam cleaning
apparatus to defrost or clean the
appliance. The steam could attack the
electrical components and cause a
short circuit.
Splashes of refrigerant can damage the
eyes.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these safety
instructions.

surrounding the appliance.
Temperature display
The appliance is designed for use in
specific ambient temperatures
(climate ranges). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is
not designed.
During normal operation the tempera-
ture display on the control panel shows
the temperature in the warmest part of
the appliance.
If the temperature in the appliance is
not within the range which can be
displayed, i.e. between 2 and 9 °C, only
a bar will show in the temperature
display.
. . . in the refrigerator
We recommend a temperature of 5 °C
in the middle of the refrigerator section.
Natural air circulation inside the
appliance will mean that there are areas
inside the appliance which will be
warmer or colder than the temperature
displayed. As long as dynamic cooling
has not been engaged this is quite
normal.
Temperature selection
The temperature is set with the temper-
ature dial.
Make use of the different temperature
zones for storing your food correctly.

Switching on the Super cool function the same degree. The temperature is
controlled as normal with the tempera-
ture dial.
Super cool is particularly recom-
mended for faster chilling of large loads
of fresh food or drink.
Dynamic cooling should be selected
when:
– the ambient temperature in the room
is high (above approx. 30 °C) and
– the room humidity level is high.

Switching off dynamic cooling
When dynamic cooling is switched on
the appliance uses more energy. It
should therefore be switched off when
the room temperature is normal (below
30 °C) and when humidity levels are
normal.
To save energy the Super cool function
can be switched off once food and
drinks are sufficiently chilled.

Storing food
Natural air circulation gives rise to
different temperature zones inside the
appliance. Cold, heavy air sinks to the
lowest section of the appliance.
Loading examples
^ When placing food in the appliance
load the top shelves first and work
your way down to the bottom starting
with baked goods, pre-cooked foods
and milk products and finishing with
meats, fish and sausages.
Make use of the different zones
when placing food in the appliance.
The coldest zones are against the
back wall and above the vegetable
containers. Use the area above the
vegetable containers for perishable
foods such as meat, sausage, fish etc.
^ Use the vegetable containers for
storing vegetables, salad and fruit.
Not all fruit and vegetables should
be stored together in the same con-
tainer as they give off natural gases
which affect the perishability of other
foods. (See section "Chilling and
storing food").
The warmest zone is in the top section
of the door. Use this area for storing
butter and cheese.
^ Fill the door shelves from the top to
the bottom.
Start with butter, cheese, small tins,
bottles and tubes in the upper
shelves, followed by large bottles,
juice containers and milk in the
bottom shelves.
Do not store cooking oil in the appli-
ance door.
Traces of oil can cause stress
cracks to occur in the plastic
components in the door.

^ Pull the shelves forward as far as
they will go then lift them upwards to
remove them.
^ Replace the door shelf at the
required position. Ensure that it is
securely pushed back into position.
^ With the rear barrier facing upwards
place the shelf at the required posi-
tion.
The rear barrier must face upwards to
prevent food from touching the back
of the appliance and freezing to it.
Moving the bottle divider
The bottle divider can be moved to the
left or right to ensure that bottles are
held securely in position when the door
is opened and shut.

Chilling and storing food
Important notes:
Food which should not be stored in a
refrigerator
Use the different cooling zones for
storing food correctly. See the
section on loading examples.
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration.
These include:
– Fruit and vegetables such as
bananas, avocado pears, papaya,
passion fruit, aubergines
– Food must not touch the back wall of
the appliance. Otherwise it may
freeze to the back wall.
– Fruit which is not yet ripe
– Potatoes
– Do not store explosive materials in
the appliance or any products
containing combustible gas (e.g.
spray cans). Danger of explosion.
Some types of vegetables give off a
natural gas which speeds up the rate at
which food perishes. Some fruit and
vegetables react strongly to this gas
and should not be stored together in
the vegetable containers.
– If storing alcohol with a high percent-
age proof, make sure it is tightly
closed, and store upright.
– Hot food and drinks must be cooled
to room temperature before placing
them in the appliance.
Examples of fruit which produce a
large amount of this natural gas are:
– Store food covered or packaged.
This way you will prevent food smells
or tastes from affecting other foods
and prevent food from drying out.
Fruit and vegetables may, however,
be stored loose in the vegetable
containers.
Apples, passion fruit, apricots, pears,
nectarines, peaches, plums, avocado
pears, papayas and figs.
Examples of fruit and vegetables
which react strongly to the natural
gases given off by other types of fruit
and vegetables are:
– Do not store groceries too close to
each other. Space should be left
between individual items for air to
circulate.
Kiwis, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels
sprouts, mangos, honeydew melons,
apples, apricots, cucumbers, tomatoes,
bananas, avocado pears, pears,
nectarines and peaches.
– Do not keep the door open for too
long when putting food in and taking
it out of the appliance. This will help
save energy.

Defrosting
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the appliance whilst it
is in use. These are automatically re-
moved and defrosted by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an evapora-
tion system at the back of the appli-
ance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are never blocked so
that condensate can flow away with-
out hindrance.

Cleaning and care
Cleaning the interior and
accessories
Never use cleaning agents contain-
ing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical
solvents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Use lukewarm water with a little mild
detergent. Accessories and shelves
should all be hand washed. The butter
dish is, however, dishwasher safe.
^ Clean the appliance at least once a
month.
Door fronts should be cleaned using
a solution of warm water with mild
detergent applied with a soft cloth or
with a suitable cleaning agent for the
type of door panel fitted.
^ Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that conden-
sate can drain away unhindered. Use
a straw or similar to clear the drain if
necessary.
Make sure that no water can pene-
trate into the electronic unit or into
the light.
^ Wipe the interior and accessories
with a damp cloth and dry with a soft
cloth. Leave the door open to air for a
short while.
Do not let water get into the
drainage channel and drain hole
when cleaning.
E-Cloth
^ A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available
from the Miele UK Spare Parts
Department, Part Number 980 13530,
which is suitable for cleaning
surfaces such as stainless steel,
glass, plastic and chrome without the
use of chemicals.
Never use steam cleaning appara-
tus to defrost or clean the appliance.
The steam could attack the electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
The data plate located inside the
appliance must not be removed. It
contains information which is re-
quired in the event of a service call.
Ventilation gaps
^ The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance’s
energy consumption.
Before cleaning
^ Switch the appliance off by turning
the On/Off dial to the "0" position.
^ Take any food out of the appliance
and store it in a cool place.
^ Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.

Installation
Ventilation
This appliance must be built in,
otherwise it could tip up.
Air at the rear of the appliance gets
warm. The appliance housing unit must
be constructed to allow sufficient space
for ventilation. Miele kitchen units are
designed to provide this ventilation.
Location
The appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
A ventilation gap of at least 50 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
The air inlet to the appliance is via the
plinth in the housing unit.
The cross section of the air inlet and
outlet must be at least 200 cm2 to
ensure that air can circulate without hin-
drance. Otherwise the appliance has to
work too hard resulting in an increase in
electricity consumption and damage to
the compressor.
The room temperature should not go
above or below the climate range for
which the appliance is designed. The
higher the ambient temperature of the
room the more energy the appliance
requires to operate. It should not be
installed where it is exposed to direct
sunlight or directly adjacent to a
heat-producing appliance such as an
oven or a radiator.
Climate range
The air inlet and outlet must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They should be dusted on a regular
basis.
The appliance is desigend for a
particular climate range (ambient room
temperature), and should not be used
outside this range. The climate range of
this appliance is stated on the data
plate inside the appliance.

with a kitchen panel.
If the old appliance had a
different hinging system
If the old appliance had a different type
of hinging the furniture door can still be
used. Remove the old hinges from the
furniture carcase. They are no longer
required, because the furniture door is
now fitted to the appliance door. All
parts required should be in the acces-
sories pack.
If the furniture door has holes in it from
the old hinges, use the enclosed
self-adhesive strip to conceal the holes
as they are no longer required.
