Guide to the appliance

Disposal of the packing

material

The transport and protective packing

has been selected from materials which

are environmentally friendly for

disposal, and should be recycled.

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!

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances

often 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.

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.

Caring for the environment

This appliance complies with all

relevant safety requirements.

Improper use can, however, present

a risk of both personal injury and

material damage.

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 notes on installation,

safety, operation and maintenance.

Keep these instructions in a safe

place and pass them on to any

future user.

Correct application

~This appliance is not designed for

commercial use. It is intended for use in

domestic households and in similar

working and residential environments

such as:

–Shops

–Offices and showrooms

and by residents in establishments

such as:

–Hostels and guest houses.

The appliance is not intended for

outdoor use.

It must only be used as a domestic

appliance to cool and store foodstuffs.

Any other usage is not supported by

the manufacturer and could be

dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable

for damage resulting from incorrect or

improper use or operation of the

appliance.

~The appliance can only be used by

people with reduced physical, sensory

or mental capabilities, or lack of

experience and knowledge, if they are

supervised whilst using it, or have been

shown how to use it in a safe way and

understand the hazards involved.

Safety with children

~Children 8 years and older may use

the appliance only if they have been

shown how to use it in a safe way and

understand the hazards involved.

~Children under 8 years of age must

be kept away from the appliance unless

they are constantly supervised.

~This appliance is not a toy! Do not

allow children to play with it or near it,

or to play with the controls. Do not let

them swing on the door.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

~Before setting up the appliance,

check it for any externally visible

damage. Do not install and use a

damaged appliance.

It could be dangerous.

~If the connection cable is faulty it

must only be replaced by a service

technician authorised by the

manufacturer to protect the user from

danger.

~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, but does

not have any adverse effect on the

performance of the appliance. Care

must be taken during transportation

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 flames 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 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 every8gofcoolant at least 1 m3of

room space is required. The amount of

coolant in the appliance is stated on the

data plate inside the appliance.

~Safe operation of the appliance is

only assured if it has been installed and

connected in accordance with these

operating and installation instructions.

~Before connecting the appliance,

check that the connection data on the

data plate (voltage and connected

load) match the mains electricity

supply,

This data must correspond in order to

avoid the risk of damage to the

appliance. Consult a qualified

electrician if in any doubt.

~Do not connect the appliance to the

mains electricity supply by a

multi-socket adapter or an extension

lead. These do not guarantee the

required safety of the appliance (e.g.

danger of overheating).

Warning and Safety instructions

~The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed if

correctly earthed. It is most important

that this basic safety requirement is

observed and regularly tested and

where there is any doubt, the

household wiring system should be

inspected by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable

for damage or injury caused by the lack

of or inadequacy of an effective

earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

~Installation, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by a

suitably qualified and competent

person in strict accordance with current

national and local safety regulations.

Repairs and other work by unqualified

persons could be dangerous. The

manufacturer cannot be held liable for

unauthorised work.

~While the appliance is under

guarantee, repairs should only be

undertaken by a service technician

authorised by the manufacturer.

Otherwise the guarantee will be

invalidated.

~The appliance must be isolated from

the electricity supply during installation,

maintenance and repair work.

~Faulty components must only be

replaced by genuine Miele original

spare parts. The manufacturer can only

guarantee the safety of the appliance

when Miele replacement parts are

used.

~This appliance must not be used in

a non-stationary location (e.g. on a

ship).

~In areas which may be subject to

infestation by cockroaches or other

vermin, pay particular attention to

keeping the appliance in a clean

condition at all times. Any damage

which may be caused by cockroaches

or other vermin will not be covered by

the guarantee.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

~Do not store explosive materials in

the appliance or any products

containing propellants (e.g. spray

cans). Thermostats switching on may

produce sparks which could present a

fire hazard. Flammable compounds

could explode.

~Do not operate any electrical

equipment (e.g. an electric ice-cream

maker) inside the appliance. Danger of

sparking and explosion.

~If storing alcohol with a high

percentage proof in the refrigerator,

make sure the bottle is tightly closed

and stored upright. Danger of

explosion.

~Observe the "use by" dates given on

food to avoid the risk of food poisoning.

Storage times will depend on several

factors, including the freshness and

quality of the food as well as the

temperature at which it is stored. Follow

the instructions given on food

manufacturer's packaging on storage

conditions required, as well as the "use

by" date.

~Do not use sharp edged objects to

–remove frost and ice,

–separate food which has become

frozen.

They will damage the evaporator,

causing irreversible damage to the

appliance.

~Do not use defrosting sprays or

de-icers, as they might contain

substances which could damage the

plastic parts or which could cause a

build-up of gases and pose a danger to

health.

~Do not use a steam-cleaning

appliance to clean this appliance.

Steam could reach the electrical

components and cause a short circuit.

~Do not use any oils or grease on the

door seals, as these will cause the

seals to deteriorate and become

porous with time.

~If storing food which contains a lot of

fat or oil, make sure that it does not

come into contact with plastic

components as this could cause stress

cracks.

~Do not block the ventilation gaps in

the appliance as this would impair the

efficiency of the appliance, increase the

electricity consumption and could

cause damage to the appliance.

~The appliance is designed for use

within certain climate ranges (ambient

temperatures), and should not be used

outside this range. 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 temperature, e.g. a garage,

will lead to the appliance switching off

for longer periods so that it cannot

maintain the required temperature.
