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 com-
pressor, 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 naked flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the wine conditioning unit from the mains electricity
supply.
- Ventilate the room where the wine conditioning unit is located for
several minutes.
- Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
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 ap-
pliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases
building up. For every 11 g of coolant at least 1m
3
of room space is
required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the wine conditioning unit.
Warning and 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 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.
Reliable and safe operation of the wine conditioning unit can only
be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from
danger.
Do not connect the wine conditioning unit 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.
If moisture gets into electrical components, it could cause a short
circuit. Therefore, do not operate this wine conditioning unit in areas
which are exposed to moisture (e.g in a garage or utility room).
Warning and Safety instructions
9
This wine conditioning unit must not be used in a non-stationary
location (e.g. on a ship).
Do not use a damaged wine conditioning unit. It could be danger-
ous. Check the wine conditioning unit for visible signs of damage.
For safety reasons, this wine conditioning unit may only be used
after it has been built in.
The wine conditioning unit must be isolated from the electricity
supply during installation, maintenance and repair work.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user.
Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician.
While the wine conditioning unit is under warranty, repairs should
only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Other-
wise the warranty is invalidated.
Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele ori-
ginal spare parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of
the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
This wine conditioning unit is supplied with a special lamp to cope
with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical res-
istance, abrasion resistance and vibration). This lamp must only be
used for the purpose for which it is intended. The lamp is not suit-
able for room lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a
Miele authorised technician or by the Miele Customer Service De-
partment. This wine conditioning unit contains several light sources
with at least energy efficiency classG.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Correct 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, e.g. a garage, will lead to the wine con-
ditioning unit switching off for longer periods so that it cannot main-
tain the required temperature.
Do not cover or block the air vents as this could impair the effi-
ciency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and
could cause damage to the components.
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.
Danger of explosion. Do not operate any electrical appliances in-
side the wine conditioning unit. Danger of sparking and explosion.
Stainless steel appliances
Adhesives will damage the stainless steel surface and cause it to
lose its dirt-repellent protective coating. Do not use sticky notes,
transparent adhesive tape, masking tape or other types of adhesive
on the stainless steel surface.
The surface is susceptible to scratching. Even magnets can cause
scratching.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
Accessories and spare parts
Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manu-
facturers will invalidate the warranty, and Miele cannot accept liabil-
ity.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a min-
imum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of
your wine unit.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Cleaning and care
Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals, as these will
cause the seals to deteriorate and become porous with 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.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Transporting the appliance
Always transport the wine conditioning unit in an upright position
and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. The wine condi-
tioning unit is very heavy and must be transported by two people.
Disposing of your old appliance
If your old wine unit or refrigeration appliance 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 damage the eyes. Be careful not to dam-
age any part of the pipework whilst awaiting disposal, e.g. by
- puncturing the coolant channels in the condenser,
- bending any pipework, or
- scratching the surface coating.
Caring for the environment
14
Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
The packaging is designed to protect
the wine conditioning unit from damage
during transportation. The packaging
materials used are selected from mater-
ials which are environmentally friendly
for disposal and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the manufactur-
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites.
Disposing of your old appli-
ance
Electronic and electrical appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials, com-
pounds and components which were
essential for their correct functioning
and safety. These could be hazardous
to your health and to the environment if
disposed of with general waste or if
handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with general waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle elec-
trical and electronic appliances in your
local community, with your dealer or
with Miele. By law, you are solely re-
sponsible for deleting any personal data
from the appliance prior to disposal.
Take care not to damage your wine
conditioning unit's pipework before or
during transportation to an authorised
collection depot.
This is to ensure that coolant in the
cooling circuit and oil in the compressor
is contained, and will not leak into the
environment.
Please ensure that your old appliance
poses no risk to children while being
stored prior to disposal. For further in-
formation, see “Warning and safety in-
structions” in these operating and in-
stallation instructions.

The optimum temperature and air quality
26
Wine keeps on maturing 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 odour free atmosphere of-
fers the perfect conditions for storing
your wine.
It also guarantees a vibration-free envir-
onment (in contrast to a refrigerator) so
that the maturing process is not dis-
turbed.
The optimum temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature
between 6 and 18°C. If you are storing
white and red wines together, select a
temperature between 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 al-
low it to breathe and develop its aroma.
At too high a temperature (over 22°C)
wine matures too quickly, which pre-
vents the aromas from developing fur-
ther. Wine cannot mature fully at too
low a temperature (below 5°C).
Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.
Type of wine Recommended
drinking
temperature*
Light, fruity reds: +14°C to +16°C
Full-bodied reds: +18°C
Rosé wines: +8°C to +10°C
Delicate, aromatic
whites:
+8°C to +12°C
Full-bodied or
sweet whites:
+12°C to +14°C
Champagne,
sparkling white
wines, Prosecco:
+6°C to +10°C
* Store the wine 1 or 2°C cooler than
the recommended drinking temperature
as it warms up a little when poured into
the glass.
Tip: Full-bodied reds should be opened
for 2-3 hours before drinking to allow
the wine to breathe and develop its
aroma.
The optimum temperature and air quality
27
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 fall, a heater
element switches on automatically to
keep the temperature inside as constant
as possible. If the ambient temperature
continues to fall, the appliance switches
itself off automatically.
Setting the temperature
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.
The following information shows in the
display while the sensors are being
touched:
- Touching a sensor once: the last
temperature selected flashes.
- Each subsequent touch of the
sensor: adjusts the temperature
shown in 1°C increments.
- Leaving a finger on the sensor
changes the temperature continu-
ously.
A tone will sound (if the sensor tone
is switched on) when the lowest or
highest possible temperature is
reached.
Approximately 5 seconds after the last
time a sensor has been touched, the
current temperature inside the wine
conditioning unit is automatically
shown.
When the temperature is altered, there
is a short delay until the temperature
selected is set.
The temperature display on the control
panel always shows the actual tem-
perature.

The temperature can be set between 5
°C and 20 °C.
Temperature display
In normal operation the temperature
display shows the actual temperature in
the appliance.
If the temperature is not within the
range that the appliance is able to dis-
play, dashes will light up in the temper-
ature 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.
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 moisten 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 kept moist from the inside. If air
gets into the bottle, this will have a neg-
ative impact on the wine!
Danger of damage from excess
amounts of moisture
An increase in humidity will lead to
condensation on the interior walls.
Condensate can cause damage such
as corrosion to the wine unit.
Do not introduce additional moisture
to air in the cabinet, e.g. by placing a
dish of water in the wine unit.
The optimum temperature and air quality
29
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
DynaCool 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 automatic-
ally as soon as the cooling system
switches on. This ensures the op-
timum climate for your wine is main-
tained.
The fans automatically switch off
when the door is open.
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 sensor for switching the
DynaCool function on and off so that
it is no longer highlighted in yellow.
The optimum temperature and air quality
30
Air filtration with the Active AirClean
filter
The Active AirClean filter achieves op-
timum air quality by filtering the incom-
ing 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
cabinet.
Filtering the incoming air through the
Active AirClean filter ensures that all the
air entering the appliance is fresh and
free from dust and odours.
This also ensures your wine does not
absorb any unwanted odours through
the corks.
Replace the Active AirClean filter regu-
larly. The symbol will appear in the
display to remind you (see “Active
AirClean filter”).
Temperature and door alarm
31
This wine conditioning unit is equipped
with an alarm system so that the tem-
perature cannot rise or fall unnoticed,
thus possibly damaging the wine.

or too cold, the alarm symbol will
flash in the display.
An alarm will also sound.
Audible and visual signals will be activ-
ated, for example,
- when the wine conditioning unit is
switched on if the temperature differs
greatly from the set temperature,
- when too much warm ambient air
enters the cabinet when bottles are
being rearranged or taken out,
- when a large number of bottles are
stored for the first time,
- in the event of a power cut.

into the lighting with optical instru-
ments (e.g. magnifying glass or sim-
ilar).
Storing wine bottles
35
Vibration and movement have a negat-
ive 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 “The optimum temperature
and air quality – Using DynaCool (con-
stant humidity)”).
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 may
damage 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.

General problems with the wine conditioning unit
Problem Cause and remedy
There is no audible
alarm although the door
has been open for a
long time.
This is not a fault. The alarm tone has been
switched off in settings mode (see “Selecting fur-
ther settings – Audible signals”).
The wine conditioning
unit cannot be switched
off.
The safety lock has been activated.
Completely deactivate the safety lock (see “Select-
ing further settings – Activating and deactivating
the safety lock”).
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 grain patina
are part of the natural character of wood.
Mildew has begun to
form on the wine bottle
labels.
Mildew can begin to 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
bottle corks.
The corks have oxidised 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.

Climate range
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 range Ambient room
temperature
SN +10°C to +32°C
N +16°C to +32°C
ST +16°C to +38°C
T +16°C to +43°C
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to switch off
for too long, causing the internal tem-
perature in the wine conditioning unit to
rise which could lead to damage.
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
that the wine conditioning unit has
been installed in accordance with
these operating and installation in-
structions.
Ventilation
Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the wine conditioning unit is not
ventilated sufficiently, the com-
pressor will run more frequently and
for longer periods. This will result in
increased energy consumption and a
higher operating temperature for the
compressor. This may, in turn, cause
damage to the compressor.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the wine condi-
tioning unit.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps. The ventilation gaps
must not be covered or blocked in
any way.

Air at the back of the wine conditioning
unit gets warm. The appliance housing
unit must therefore be constructed to
allow sufficient space for ventilation
(see “Building-in dimensions”):
- Air intake is provided underneath the
appliance door.
- Air must be allowed to escape
through a ventilation gap provided
above the wine conditioning unit.
This ventilation gap must have a min-
imum cross-section of 200cm² to
ensure that the warm air can escape
unhindered.
- Important! The larger the ventilation
gaps, the less energy the wine condi-
tioning unit will use.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
must also be regularly dusted.
Different types of ventilation gap
The ventilation gap at the top of the ap-
pliance can be constructed in different
ways:
- A: directly above the wine condition-
ing unit
- B: above a top box
- C: in a top box through a ventilation
grille at the front
If ventilation grilles are to be fitted in
the ventilation gaps, the ventilation
gaps must be larger than 200cm².
The unobstructed airflow of 200cm² is
calculated by adding up the total area
of ventilation gaps in the grille.

There is an increased risk of injury
and damage if the wine conditioning
unit is installed by a single person.
Two people are required for installing
the wine conditioning unit.
Install the wine conditioning unit in a
stable, solid housing unit, positioned
on an even and level floor.
The building-in niche must be hori-
zontally and vertically aligned.
The required ventilation gaps must be
provided (see “Installation” – “Ventila-
tion” and “Building-in dimensions”).

of the appliance through to the
socket.
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
58
Push the wine conditioning unit back
into the housing unit. Take care not to
damage the mains cable whilst push-
ing the wine conditioning unit back in.
Align the wine conditioning unit flush
with the surrounding cabinetry,
pulling it forwards if necessary.
If you need to realign the wine condi-
tioning unit, you will need to pull it out
of the housing unit to readjust the
feet underneath it.
Adjust the feet to the required
height.
The feet can be manually adjusted or
adjusted with the spanner supplied.
Push the wine conditioning unit back
into the housing unit and check the
alignment with the adjoining cabinetry
again. Take care not to damage the
mains cable whilst pushing the wine
conditioning unit back in.

Attach the suction cap supplied to
the glass door and open the door.
Secure the wine conditioning unit to
the carcase using the four screws
supplied (4x29) . The screws
should be screwed into the carcase
at a slight angle (approx.15°).
Installation
*INSTALLATION*

Fit the covers (supplied).
Now connect the wine conditioning
unit to the electrical supply.
When the wine conditioning unit is con-
nected to the electrical supply, the
mains connection symbol will ap-
pear in the display after a short while.
Touch the On/Off sensor.
The mains connection symbol will
go out and the wine conditioning unit
will start to cool.
The Push2open system on the wine
conditioning unit is now activated (see
“Guide to the appliance” – “Using the
door-opening mechanism correctly”).
Electrical connection
The wine conditioning unit is supplied
with a mains cable with moulded plug
ready for connection to an earthed
socket.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the wine conditioning unit has
been installed. If the socket is not easily
accessible, ensure that a suitable
means of disconnection is provided on
the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the refrigeration appli-
ance to a multi-socket plug adapter
or to an extension lead can overload
the cable.
For safety reasons, do not use an ex-
tension lead or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical system must comply with
local and national safety regulations
(BS7671 in the UK).
For safety reasons, we recommend us-
ing a type residual current device
(RCD) in the assigned electrical installa-
tion for connecting the wine condition-
ing unit.
If the mains connection cable is dam-
aged, it must only be replaced with a
specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from the Miele
Customer Service Department). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a qualified spe-
cialist or the Miele Customer Service
Department.

These operating instructions and the
data plate indicate the nominal power
consumption and the appropriate fuse
rating. Compare this information with
the data of the on-site electrical con-
nection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-
trician.
Do not connect the wine conditioning
unit to a stand-alone inverter such as
those used with an autonomous power
supply, e.g. solar power. When the wine
conditioning unit is switched on, power
surges could result in an auto switch-
off. This could damage the electronic
module.
