Technical safety
The refrigerant circuit has been checked for leaks. The wine con-
ditioning unit complies with statutory safety requirements and the
appropriate EU directives.
This wine conditioning unit contains the coolant Isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. The coolant
does not damage the ozone layer and does not contribute to 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 compres-
sor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the cooling
circuit. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but it does not affect
the performance of the wine conditioning unit.
When transporting and installing the wine conditioning unit, ensure
that no parts of the cooling circuit are damaged. Splashes of coolant
can damage the eyes.
In the event of damage:
– Avoid open flames or anything which creates a spark.
– Disconnect the wine conditioning unit from the electricity supply.
– Ventilate the room where the wine conditioning unit is located for
several minutes.
– Contact Miele Technical Service.
The more coolant there is in a wine conditioning unit, the larger
the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the
wine conditioning is in a small room, there is the danger of com-
bustible gases building up. For every 0.38oz (11g) of coolant at
least 35.3 cubic feet (1m
3
) of room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the wine conditioning unit is stated on the data plate in-
side the wine conditioning unit.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
8
To avoid the risk of damage to the wine conditioning unit, 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 wine conditioning
unit. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of the wine conditioning unit can only be
guaranteed when correctly grounded. It is essential that this stan-
dard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the elec-
trical installation tested by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of the wine conditioning unit can only
be guaranteed if it is connected to the power supply.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Miele au-
thorized technician in order to protect the user from harm.
Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power
bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance.
If moisture gets into electrical components or into the power cord,
it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate the wine
conditioning in areas where there may be moisture or splashing wa-
ter (e.g., garages, laundry rooms).
This wine conditioning unit must not be used in a non-stationary
location (e.g. on a ship).
Before installation and use check the wine conditioning unit for
any visible damage. Do not operate or install a damaged appliance.
To ensure safe operation, use the wine conditioning unit only
when it has been installed.
The wine conditioning unit must be disconnected from the power
supply during installation, side-by-side heater installation, mainte-
nance and repair work. The appliance is only disconnected from the
power supply if:
– the circuit breaker has been tripped, or
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9
– the circuit breaker has been tripped, or
– the power cord has been unplugged. Pull on the plug and not on
the cord when removing it from the outlet.
Installation, repair, and maintenance work should only be per-
formed by a Miele-authorized service technician.
Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the
warranty.
Repairs and other work performed by unauthorized persons could
be dangerous and may void the warranty.
Defective components should only be replaced by Miele original
parts. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the
safety of the appliance.
Proper use
The wine conditioning unit is designed for use within a certain cli-
mate range (ambient temperatures) and should not be used outside
this range. The climate range for your wine conditioning unit is stated
on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a room with too
low an ambient temperature will cause the compressor to shut down
for longer periods of time so that the unit cannot maintain the re-
quired temperature.
Do not cover or block the air vents. This can impair the efficiency
of the appliance, increase the power consumption and cause dam-
age to the appliance.
If the wine conditioning unit is used for storing food which con-
tains fat or oil, make sure that it does not come into contact with
plastic components. Any spillages of oil or fat could cause stress
cracks to the plastic and cause it to break or split.
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store explosive materials in the
wine conditioning unit or any products containing propellants (e.g.,
spray cans). Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of
gases to ignite.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
Risk of explosion. Do not operate any electrical appliances inside
the wine conditioning unit. Risk of sparking and explosion.
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from
other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become invalid.
Cleaning and care
Do not use any oil or grease on the door seals.
They can cause the seals to deteriorate over time.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this wine condi-
tioning unit.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, caus-
ing irreversible damage to the wine conditioning unit. Do not use
sharp edged or pointed objects to
– remove frost and ice,
– remove labels, stickers etc.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
Transport
Always transport the wine conditioning unit in an upright position
and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Risk of injury and damage. The wine conditioning unit is very
heavy and must be transported by two people.
Disposing of your old appliance
If your old wine conditioning unit or refrigerator has a door lock,
destroy it.
This will prevent the risk of children playing accidentally locking
themselves in and endangering their lives.
Splashes of coolant can cause damage to the eyes. Be careful not
to damage any part of the pipework while awaiting disposal, e.g. by
– puncturing the coolant channels in the evaporator,
– kinking any pipework,
– scratching the surface coating.
Symbol on the compressor (depending on model)
This information is only relevant for recycling. There is no risk during normal oper-
ation.
The oil in the compressor can be fatal if swallowed or if it pene-
trates the airways.

Optimum temperature and air quality
28
Wine continues to mature depending on
the surrounding conditions. The length
of time for which wine can be kept in
good condition will therefore depend
not only on the temperature but also on
the air quality.
The wine conditioning unit with its con-
stant ideal temperature, increased air
humidity and odor-free atmosphere of-
fers the perfect conditions for storing
your wine.
The wine conditioning unit also guaran-
tees a vibration-free environment (in
contrast to a refrigerator) so that the
maturing process is not disturbed.
Temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature
between 42° and 64°F (6° and 18°C). If
you are storing white and red wines to-
gether, select a temperature between
53° and 57°F (12° and 14°C). This is
suitable for both white and red wines.
Red wine should be taken out of the
wine conditioning unit and opened at
least two hours before drinking to allow
it to breathe and develop its aroma.
At too high a temperature (over 72°F /
22°C), wine matures too quickly, which
prevents the aromas from developing
further. Wine cannot mature fully at too
low a temperature (below 41°F / 5°C).
Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.

Optimum temperature and air quality
29
Safety device in case of low ambient
temperatures
The appliance is equipped with a safety
thermostat to protect your wine against
a sharp drop in temperature. If the ex-
ternal temperature should drop below
this level, a heater element turns on au-
tomatically to keep the temperature in-
side as constant as possible. If the am-
bient temperature continues to fall, the
appliance switches itself off automati-
cally.
Isolation plate for thermal separation
The wine unit comes with a fixed isola-
tion plate that divides the interior of the
unit into two separate temperature
zones. This allows you to store different
types of wine at the same time, e.g., red
wine and Champagne.
The isolation strips inside the glass
door prevent the exchange of heat be-
tween the individual zones.
Setting the temperature
The temperatures in the wine condition-
ing zones can be set independently of
one another.
Touch the sensor for the zone for
which you wish to change the tem-
perature so that it is highlighted in
yellow.
The current temperature for the se-
lected zone appears in the display.
Use the two sensors underneath the
display to set the temperature.
By touching the sensor:
– The temperature decreases.
– The temperature increases.
Touch the OK sensor to confirm your
selection
or
Wait approximately 5 seconds after
the last touch of a sensor.
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
Optimum temperature and air quality
30
When you touch the sensors, you will
see the following changes in the dis-
play:
– With the first touch:
The last temperature set flashes.
– Each subsequent touch:
The temperature changes in 1° incre-
ments.
– Keeping your finger on the sensor:
The temperature changes continu-
ously.
A negative tone will sound (if the sen-
sor tone is switched on) when the
lowest or highest possible tempera-
ture is reached.
Approximately 5seconds after a sensor
has last been touched, the current
temperature inside the wine condition-
ing zone is shown automatically.
When the temperature is altered, there
is a short delay until the temperature
selected is set.
The temperature display in the control
panel always shows the actual tem-
perature.
Temperature range
In both zones, it is possible to set the
temperature between 41°F and 68°F
(5°C and 20°C).
A room temperature above 90°F
(32°C) may cause the temperature in
the lower section of the appliance to
increase slightly so that the tempera-
ture is approx. 2° above the tempera-
ture set for this section.
Wines which may not be stored un-
der these slightly raised temperature
conditions should preferably not be
placed on the 3D bottle presenter,
but instead should be placed on one
of the wooden shelves above it.
Temperature display
In normal operation, the temperature
display shows the actual temperature in
the zone.
If the temperature in one of the zones is
not within the range that the appliance
is able to display, dashes will light up in
the temperature display.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
temperature required and for this tem-
perature to then be shown as a con-
stant temperature in the display.
Optimum temperature and air quality
31
Air quality and humidity
In most refrigerators, the humidity is too
low for wine and therefore a refrigerator
is not suitable for wine storage. High
humidity levels are necessary when
storing wine to moisturize corks from
the outside. When the humidity is too
low the corks dry out and the bottle is
no longer tightly sealed. For this reason
wine bottles should always be stored
horizontally to ensure that corks are
also moisturized from the inside. If air
gets into the bottle, this will have a neg-
ative impact on the wine.
Risk of damage caused by ex-
cess moisture.
This will lead to condensation on the
interior walls, which can cause corro-
sion damage.
Do not introduce additional moisture
into the air, e.g., by placing a dish of
water inside the wine conditioning
unit.
Using
DynaCool (constant humidity)
DynaCool raises the relative humidity
inside the whole of the wine condition-
ing unit. It also distributes the humidity
and the temperature evenly around the
interior so that you can store all your
wine under the same excellent condi-
tions.
This will create a stable climate in the
unit which imitates that of a wine cel-
lar.
Switching on DynaCool
If you would like to use the wine condi-
tioning unit to store wine over the long
term, we recommend that you keep the
DynaCool function switched on.
Touch the sensor to switch the Dyna-
Cool function on/off. The sensor will
be highlighted in yellow.
Even if DynaCool has not been
switched on, the fans in the wine con-
ditioning unit will come on automati-
cally as soon as the cooling system
switches on. This ensures the opti-
mum climate for your wine is main-
tained.
The fans automatically switch off
when the appliance door is open.
Optimum temperature and air quality
32
Switching off DynaCool
The wine conditioning unit uses
slightly more energy and is a little
noisier when the DynaCool function is
switched on. You can switch it off now
and then if you wish.
Touch the On/Off sensor of the Dyna-
Cool function so that it is no longer
highlighted in yellow.
Air filtration with the Active AirClean
filter
The Active AirClean filter achieves opti-
mum air quality by filtering the incoming
air.
Fresh air from the room enters the ap-
pliance via the Active AirClean filter.
The fans (DynaCool function) then dis-
tribute the air evenly throughout the
wine conditioning unit.
Filtering the incoming air through the
Active AirClean filter ensures that all air
entering the appliance is fresh and free
from dust and odors.
This also ensures your wine does not
absorb any unwanted odors through
the corks.
Replace the Active AirClean filter regu-
larly. Thesymbol will appear in the
display to remind you (see “Active Air-
Clean filter”).
Temperature and door alarm
33
The appliance is equipped with an
alarm system so that the temperature
cannot rise or fall unnoticed, which
could possibly damage the wine.
Temperature alarm
If the temperature in one of the wine
conditioning zones rises or falls by a
certain amount, the sensor for that zone
will flash in the control panel and at the
same time the alarm symbol will
flash in the display. An alarm will also
sound.
The audio and visual signals are trig-
gered, for example:
– when the wine unit is switched on
and the temperature in one of the
temperature zones differs greatly
from the set temperature,
– when too much warm ambient air en-
ters the cabinet when bottles are be-
ing rearranged or taken out;
– when a large number of bottles are
stored for the first time,
– after a power outage.
The alarm will stop and the alarm sym-
bolgoes out as soon as the temper-
ature has dropped to the correct level
again. The sensor for the relevant zone
will light up constantly again.
Switching the temperature alarm off
early
If the acoustic alarm disturbs you, it can
be switched off.
Touch the sensor to turn off the tem-
perature alarm.
The alarm will stop.
The relevant wine conditioning zone will
continue to flash in the control panel
and the alarm symbol will continue
to flash in the display until the cause of
the alarm has been rectified.
Temperature and door alarm
34
Door alarm
An alarm will sound if the appliance
door has been left open for longer than
approx. 2minutes. The sensors for the
two wine conditioning zones will flash in
the control panel. The alarm symbol
lights up on the display.
As soon as the appliance door is
closed, the alarm will stop. The sensors
for the two wine conditioning zones and
the alarm symbol will go out in the
control panel.
If the alarm does not sound in the
event of a door alarm, then the alarm
has been switched off in settings
mode (see “Acoustic signals” un-
der “Selecting additional settings”).
Turning the door alarm off early
If the alarm disturbs you, it can be
turned off early.
Touch the sensor to turn off the door
alarm.
The alarm will stop.
The wine conditioning zone sensors will
continue to flash and the alarm sym-
bol will remain lit up until you close
the door.
Feature lighting
35
The interior lighting can be set to re-

group RG2. If the cover is defective,
there is a risk of eye injury.
If the lighting cover is defective, do
not look from a close range directly
into the lighting with optical instru-
ments (e.g., magnifying glass or simi-
lar).
Storing wine bottles
38
Vibration and movement have a nega-
tive effect on the maturing process
which can in turn affect the taste of the
wine.
To avoid disturbing other bottles when
removing a bottle of wine, store bottles
of the same type beside each other on
the same shelf. Avoid stacking bottles
on top of one another on the wooden
shelves.
Always place the bottles in a horizontal
position so that the natural corks can
be kept moist on the inside and air is
prevented from getting into the bottles.
Tip: We also recommend increasing the
humidity level inside the wine condition-
ing unit for wine bottles with natural
corks (see “Using DynaCool (con-
stant humidity)” under “Optimum tem-
perature and air quality”).
Risk of injury from falling wine
bottles.
Wine bottles may become wedged in
the wooden shelves above and fall
out of the wine conditioning unit
when the shelves are pulled out.
Always pull out the wooden shelves
slowly and carefully.
Risk of damage and injury from
broken glass.
If wooden shelves and bottles pro-
trude too far forwards, they will dam-
age the glass door when it is closed.
Please ensure that the wooden
shelves and wine bottles do not pro-
trude.
Do not cover the vents in the rear
wall, as they are essential for keeping
the appliance cool.
Storing wine bottles

General problems with the wine conditioning unit
Problem Possible cause and solution
The door seal is dam-
aged or needs to be re-
placed.
No tools are required to change the door seal.
Change the door seal. A replacement is available
from Technical Service.
An alarm does not
sound even though the
appliance door has
been open for a long
time.
This is not a fault. The alarm tone has been
switched off in settings mode (see “Acoustic sig-
nals” under “Selecting additional settings”).
The wine conditioning
unit cannot be switched
off.
The safety lock has been activated.
Completely deactivate the safety lock (see “Acti-
vating and deactivating the safety lock” under
“Selecting additional settings”).
The slats on the
wooden shelves are
warping.
Volume change due to moisture absorption or drying
out is a typical characteristic of wood. An increase in
humidity will cause wooden components to warp,
which can lead to cracking. Knots and wavy grain are
characteristic for wood and cannot be avoided.
Bacteria has begun to
form on the wine bottle
labels.
Bacteria may form on the labels, depending on the
type of label adhesive used.
Clean the wine bottles and remove any adhesive
residue.
A white deposit has
formed on the wine bot-
tle corks.
The corks have oxidized due to contact with the air.
Use a dry cloth to wipe off the deposit. The de-
posit will not affect the quality of the wine.
Causes of noises
58
Normal noises Cause
Brrrrr... A humming noise is made by the motor (compressor). This
noise can get louder for brief periods when the motor switches
on.
Blub, blub.... A gurgling noise can be heard when the coolant circulates
through the pipes.
Click.... Clicking sounds occur whenever the thermostat switches the
motor on or off.
Sssrrrrr.... On multi-zone wine conditioning units you can sometimes just
hear the sound of the fan inside the appliance.
Crack... A cracking sound can be heard when material inside the wine
conditioning unit expands.
Please bear in mind that a certain amount of noise is unavoidable (from the com-
pressor and the coolant circulating through the system).
Noises that you
can easily elimi-
nate
Possible cause Solution
Rattling, clinking The wine conditioning unit is
uneven.
Realign the wine condition-
ing unit using a spirit level,
by raising or lowering the
screw feet underneath the
appliance.
Shelves are unstable or stick-
ing.

Risk of injury and damage.
If you install the wine conditioning
unit by itself in a separate housing
unit, this housing unit must be se-
curely fixed to the wall.
This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
When deciding where to install your
wine conditioning unit, please bear in
mind that it will use more energy if in-
stalled near to a heater, a range, or an-
other appliance that gives off heat. Di-
rect sunlight should also be avoided.
The higher the room temperature, the
longer the compressor has to run and
the higher the energy consumption is.
When installing the wine conditioning
unit, please note:
– The electrical socket must be easily
accessible in an emergency and not
concealed behind the appliance.
– The plug and power cord must not
touch the back of the wine condition-
ing unit as they could be damaged by

Load-bearing capacity of the
niche floor
To ensure the safe installation of the
wine conditioning unit and to guarantee
its correct functioning, the floor of the
niche where the appliance is to be in-
stalled must be smooth and even.
It must be made from strong, rigid ma-
terial.
Because the appliance is extremely
heavy when fully loaded, it is essential
that the floor it stands on is able to bear
its weight.
When fully loaded, the weight of the
wine conditioning unit is approx.
440 lb (200kg).
Danger from broken glass!
Danger of injury due to broken glass!
If installed at altitudes above 4,900ft
(1,500m) there is a risk of the glass
in the door breaking because of
changes in air pressure. Shards of
glass can cause severe injury if not
handled with care.
Risk of damage due to high hu-
midity.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on the ex-
ternal wine conditioning unit panels,
which can cause corrosion.
Install the wine conditioning unit with
sufficient ventilation in a dry and/or
air-conditioned room.
After installation, make sure that the
appliance door closes properly, the
ventilation gaps are not covered, and
the wine conditioning unit has been
installed in accordance with these
operating and installation instruc-
tions.

Climate class
The wine conditioning unit is designed
for use within a certain climate range
(ambient temperatures) and should not
be used outside this range. The climate
range of the wine conditioning unit is
stated on the data plate inside it.
Climate class Room tempera-
ture
SN 50° to 90°F
(10° to 32°C)
N 61° to 90°F
(16° to 32°C)
ST 61° to 100°F
(16° to 38°C)
T 61° to 109°F
(16° to 43°C)
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to turn off for
too long, causing the internal tempera-
ture in the appliance to rise, resulting in
damage.
Side-by-side
This wine conditioning unit can be in-
stalled side-by-side with another wine
conditioning unit or refrigerator.
Your dealer will be able to advise you
which combination of models is possi-
ble with your wine conditioning unit.

Ventilation
WARNING! Fire hazard!
Operation of the wine conditioning
unit is limited. Keep the ventilation
slits free from obstruction.
If the ventilation slits are not kept
free and unobstructed the compres-
sor will switch on more often and will
run for longer.
This can cause higher energy con-
sumption and to an increased com-
pressor operating temperature,
which can result in damage to the
compressor.
Do not block the ventilation slits.
The air at the back wall of the wine con-
ditioning warms up. Therefore the cabi-
net must be constructed in such a way
that ensures unhindered ventilation (see
“Built-in dimensions”).
– The air influx enters via the plinth
and the air outlet is at the top at
the rear of the cabinet.
– To ensure ventilation an air channel of
a minimum 9/16" (40mm) depth
must be provided at the back of the
wine conditioning.
– The ventilation slits in the plinth, in
the cabinet and under the top of the
cabinet must provide a total passage
volume of at least 31 square inches
to allow the warm air to dissipate
unimpeded.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
64
If you wish to fit a grille in the ventila-
tion openings, the ventilation open-
ings must be larger than 31 square
inches. The passage volume of 31
square inches is the total area of the
opening slits in the grille.
– Important! The larger the ventilation
slits, the more economically the wine
conditioning will work.
The ventilation slits must not be
blocked or obstructed in any way.
Clean the ventilation slits on a regu-
lar basis.
Custom door panel
Horizontal and vertical gaps
Depending on the style of kitchen cabi-
netry, the thickness and edge radius of
the custom door panel and the gap that
runs around the door, vertically and hor-
izontally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following:
– Horizontal gap
The gap between the custom door
panel and the housing unit door above
or below it must be at least 1/8" (3mm).
– Vertical gap
If the gap between the custom door
panel and the adjoining housing unit
door or wall on the hinged side is too
small, the appliance door could col-
lide with the adjoining housing unit
door or wall when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the
size of this gap to suit the thickness
and edge radius of the custom door
panel.
This must be taken into consideration
when planning your kitchen and when
replacing an old wine conditioning unit
with a new one to ensure the installation
conditions required are met.

Electrical connection
Danger of electric shock!
The wine conditioning unit must only
be switched on when it has been in-
stalled in accordance with the instal-
lation instructions.
Ground the wine conditioning unit.
The wine conditioning must not be
grounded via a gas pipe.
If in doubt, have a suitably qualified
and experienced electrician check
that the installation complies with rel-
evant regulations.
Do not install a fuse into neutral cur-
rent or grounding electrical circuit.
Do not use extension cords or un-
grounded (two prong) adapters.
Do not use a frayed or damaged
power cord.
Danger of electric shock!
For protection against electric shock
this wine conditioning is equipped
with a pole-free plug which is pro-
tected against reverse polarity. The
plug must be grounded in the usual
way.
Do not remove the round grounding
connector pin from the plug.
Use only a grounded plug adapter.
Wait for 1hour after installation before
plugging the wine conditioning into the
power supply. This allows coolant and
refrigerator oil to settle in accordance
with regulations.
Ensure that the voltage of the main
power supply corresponds with the
connection voltage of the wine condi-
tioning. A power supply of 110 - 120 V,
60 Hz and 15 Amp (20 Amp for side-by-
side installation) with a NEMA 5-15
molded plug, which is protected by a
main switch or a fuse, is required to op-
erate the wine conditioning unit.
The manufacturer recommends operat-
ing the wine conditioning on a separate
circuit to avoid overloading the electri-
cal circuit.
All relevant legal electrical, fire and
building regulations must be observed
when installing the socket and/or the
wine conditioning.
In certain countries wine conditioning
are required to be connected to the
electrical supply via a wall-mounted
ON/OFF switch.
To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock
or other injuries installation and connec-
tion of the appliance must be carried
out by a suitably qualified electrician in
accordance with all relevant local and
national regulations and standards, in-
cluding fire prevention.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
86
The outlet must be easily accessible in
an emergency so that the wine condi-
tioning unit can be quickly discon-
nected from the electrical supply in
case of an emergency.
If the outlet is no longer accessible
once the appliance has been installed,
an all-pole disconnect device with a
contact opening of at least 1/8" (3mm)
must be present on site. The discon-
nect device may be circuit breaker, a
fuse, or a contactor (compliant with lo-
cal regulations).
The plug and power cord must not
come into contact with the back of the
appliance as vibrations can cause dam-
age to these components. This, in turn,
could result in a short circuit.
Do not plug in other devices behind this
wine conditioning unit.
Do not connect the wine conditioning
unit to an inverter such as those used
with an autonomous energy source e.g.
solar power. When switched on, peak
loads in the system can cause the
safety switch-off mechanism to be trig-
gered. This can damage the electronic
unit.
The wine conditioning unit must not be
used with so-called energy-saving de-
vices either. These reduce the amount
of energy supplied to the wine condi-
