Technical safety
The coolant circuit has been checked for leaks. The refrigeration
appliance complies with statutory safety requirements and the ap-
propriate EU directives.
This refrigeration appliance contains the refrigerant isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly but flam-
mable. The refrigerant does not damage the ozone layer and does
not contribute to the greenhouse effect.
The use of this refrigerant 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 refrigerant flowing around the
cooling circuit. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but it does not
affect the performance of the refrigeration appliance.
When transporting and installing the refrigeration appliance, ensure
that no parts of the cooling circuit are damaged. Splashes of refri-
gerant can damage the eyes.
In the event of damage:
- Avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the refrigeration appliance from the mains electricity
supply.
- Ventilate the room where the refrigeration appliance is located for
several minutes.
- Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
The more coolant there is in a refrigeration appliance, 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 a combustible gas/
air mixture building up. For every 11g of coolant at least 1m
3
of
room space is required. The amount of coolant in the refrigeration
appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
8
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, 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 appliance. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re-
quirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installa-
tion tested by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
If the electrical connection cable supplied is damaged, it must
only be replaced by an original spare part to prevent a hazard for the
user. Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when ori-
ginal Miele spare parts are used.
Do not connect the appliance 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 or into the mains con-
nection cable, it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not oper-
ate this refrigeration appliance in areas which are exposed to mois-
ture (e.g in a garage or utility room).
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check
the appliance for visible signs of damage.
This refrigeration appliance is not intended for use as a built-in ap-
pliance.
The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during
installation, maintenance and repair work.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
9
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 appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise 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 refrigeration appliance is supplied with a special lamp to
cope with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical
resistance, 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 refrigeration appliance contains several light sources
with at least energy efficiency classG.
Correct use
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use within specific am-
bient temperatures (climate range). Do not use in ambient temperat-
ures for which it is not designed. The climate range is stated on the
data plate in the interior cabinet of the refrigeration appliance. A
lower ambient temperature will cause the compressor to switch off
for longer periods, meaning that the refrigeration appliance is unable
to maintain 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 storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil in the appliance or
the door, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic
components as this could cause stress cracks or break the plastic.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store explosive materials in the
refrigeration appliance 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 equipment (e.g.
an electric ice-cream maker) inside the refrigeration appliance.
Danger of sparking and explosion.
Observe the manufacturer's “use-by” dates and storage instruc-
tions 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.
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.
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 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of
your refrigeration appliance.
background
Warning and Safety instructions
11
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 or defrost this ap-
pliance.
Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, caus-
ing irreversible damage to the appliance. Do not use sharp edged or
pointed objects to
- remove frost and ice,
- separate frozen food or remove ice trays.
Do not place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to de-
frost it. These can damage the plastic parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays or de-icers, as they could contain
substances which could damage the plastic parts or which might
cause the build-up of gases and pose a danger to health.
Transport
Always transport the appliance in an upright position and in its ori-
ginal transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. The refrigeration
appliance is very heavy and must be transported by two people.

Disposal of your old appliance
If your old refrigeration appliance has a door lock, destroy it. This
will prevent the risk of children playing accidentally locking them-
selves 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
13
Disposal of the packing mater-
ial
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials 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 refrigera-
tion appliance’s pipework before or dur-
ing transportation to an authorised col-
lection 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 correct temperature
23
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the ap-
pliance. Bacteria will cause food which
is not stored at the correct temperature
to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influ-
ences the growth rate of these bacteria.
Reducing the temperature reduces their
growth rate.
The temperature in the refrigeration ap-
pliance will rise:
- The more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept open
- The more food that is stored in it
- The warmer the food is which is be-
ing put into it
- The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance. This refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within specific am-
bient temperatures (climate range).
Do not use in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
...in the refrigerator section
We recommend a temperature of 4°C
in the refrigerator section.

Using Super cool
25
You can switch the Super cool func-
tion on.
Super cool function
The Super cool function can be used to
rapidly reduce the temperature in the
refrigerator section to its lowest setting
(depending on the room temperature).
Tip: Super cool is particularly recom-
mended for the rapid chilling of large
amounts of fresh food or drink.
When Super cool is switched on, the
appliance will work at full power to

Door alarm
The refrigeration appliance is fitted with
a warning system to avoid increased
energy consumption and prevent stored
food becoming warm if the door is left
open.
If the appliance door is left open for a
longer period of time,
will light up
yellow in the temperature display. An
audible alarm will also sound.
The amount of time until the door alarm
is triggered depends on the setting se-
lected (factory default setting =
1minute) and can be changed (see
“Selecting further settings – Changing
the time until the door alarm is
triggered”). However, the door alarm
can also be turned off (see “Selecting
further settings – Setting the volume/
Switching alarms and audible tones on/
off”).
The alarm will stop and
will go out
in the display as soon as the door is
closed.
The door alarm is only displayed on
the start screen.
The door alarm is automatically
supressed when you are in Settings
mode. No symbol will be displayed

Explanation of the different
Settings
Switching Holiday mode on/off
This function is useful when you go on
holiday, for example, if you do not wish
to switch the refrigerator section off
completely and do not need a high de-
gree of cooling.
The refrigerator section is regulated at a
temperature of 15°C, remaining in op-
eration whilst also saving energy.
As a result of the higher temperature
during Holiday mode, the storage life
of the food is reduced.
Do not store any temperature-sensit-
ive food which goes off easily such
as fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and
dairy products during this time.
Food which does not go off quickly can
be stored in the appliance for some
time at this moderate refrigerator sec-
tion temperature and energy consump-
tion is lower than in normal operation.
This also prevents the build-up of
odours and mould which can occur if
the refrigerator section is switched off
and the appliance door is closed.
When Holiday mode is switched on, it is
indicated on the start screen:

Risk of explosion due to flam-
mable mixes of gases.
Electrical components can cause
flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Do not store explosive materials in
the refrigeration appliance or any
products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans).
Risk of damage due to greasy or
oily food.
If storing food which contains a lot of
fat or oil in the refrigeration appliance
or the appliance door, make sure
that it does not come into contact
with plastic components as this
could cause stress cracks or break
the plastic.
Make sure that no fat or oil leaks
onto the plastic parts of the refrigera-
tion appliance.
Different storage zones
Due to natural air circulation, there are
different temperature zones in the refri-
gerator section.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest sec-
tion of the refrigeration section. Make
use of the different zones when placing
food in the appliance.
Tip: To allow air to circulate efficiently,
do not pack food too closely together in
the appliance.
If there is insufficient air circulation,
the cooling performance will de-
crease and energy consumption will
increase.
Do not cover the fan in the rear wall
of the appliance.
Tip: Do not store food in such a way
that it touches the rear wall of the refri-
gerator section as it may freeze to the
rear wall.
This appliance has automatic Dynamic
cooling, which helps to keep an even
temperature when the fan is running,
making the difference between the
various zones is less pronounced.
Warmest area
The warmest area in the refrigerator
section is at the top in the front area
and in the door. Use this for storing but-
ter and cheese.
background
Storing food in the refrigerator section
38
Coldest area
The coldest area in the fridge zone is
directly above the DailyFresh drawer
and at the back of the appliance.
Use these areas to store all delicate and
highly perishable food such as:
- Fish, meat, poultry
- Cold cuts, ready meals
- Dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream
- Fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough
- Raw milk cheese and other raw milk
products
- Pre-packed vegetables
- Other fresh food (with a label stating
it should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4°C)
Tip: Store food in such a way that it
does not touch the rear wall of the
fridge zone. Otherwise it could freeze to
the rear wall.
Food which is not suitable for
storage in the refrigerator sec-
tion
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration
at temperatures below 5°C, because it
may be sensitive to cold. Depending on
the type of food, the appearance, con-
sistency, flavour and/or vitamin content
may be altered if stored at too cold a
temperature.
Food which is sensitive to cold in-
cludes:
- Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passionfruit, citrus fruit
such as lemons, oranges, mandarins,
grapefruit
- Fruit (which is not yet ripe)
- Aubergines, cucumbers, potatoes,
peppers, tomatoes, courgettes
- Hard cheeses (e.g. Parmesan, moun-
tain cheese)
background

Notes on buying food
The freshness of the food when it is first
placed in the appliance is the most im-
portant factor for how long it stays
fresh.
Take into account the use-by date and
the correct storage temperature.
Time out of the refrigerator, e.g. trans-
porting food in a warm car, should be
kept to a minimum.
Storing food correctly
Ensure that food stored in the fridge
zone is in packaging or covered prop-
erly (some exceptions apply in the
DailyFresh drawer). This will prevent
food odours from affecting other food,
stop food from drying out and also pre-
vent any cross-contamination of bac-
teria. This is particularly important when
storing meat products. Make sure that
food such as raw meat and fish in par-
ticular does not come into contact with
other food.
By ensuring that the temperature set-
tings are correct and by taking appro-
priate hygiene measures, you can pro-
long the storage life of your food con-
siderably. This prevents food waste.
Protein-rich food
Please note that food rich in protein de-
teriorates faster than other types of
food. Shellfish, for example, deterior-
ates faster than fish, and fish deterior-
ates faster than meat.
background
Storing food in the DailyFresh drawer
40
The DailyFresh drawer provides good
storage conditions for fruit and veget-
ables.
The humidity level in the DailyFresh
drawer can also be regulated to suit the
food being stored. Food retains its own
moisture if stored at a higher humidity
and so does not dry out as quickly. The
temperature is approximately equivalent
to the temperature in the refrigerator
section.
Remember that the fresher the food
when placed in the appliance, the
longer it will stay fresh.
Regulating the humidity level in the
DailyFresh drawer
A slide control is used to regulate the
amount of moisture present.
Slide control at = moisture not in-
creased
For hygiene reasons always keep these
foods covered or wrapped.
Slide control at = moisture in-
creased
This setting is suitable for storing fruit
and vegetables.
The slide control closes the vents in the
drawer so the moisture cannot escape.
The moisture level greatly depends on
the type and quantity of food being
stored, if stored unwrapped.
If the quantity of food being stored in
this compartment is small, the humidity
level may be too low.
Tip: If you are only storing a small
amount of food, wrap it in airtight pack-
aging.
Increased moisture in the drawer
can, in some circumstances, cause a
build-up of condensate.
Wipe off any condensate with a
cloth.
background
Storing food in the DailyFresh drawer
41
Storage results for food stored
in the DailyFresh drawer
Observe the following tips if you find
that food you have stored does not
keep well (e.g. food becomes limp or
wilts after only being stored for a
short time):
- Only place fresh food in the appli-
ance. The initial condition of the food
is crucial to maintaining freshness.
- Clean the drawer before storing food
in it.
- Very wet food should be dried off be-
fore storing it.
- Do not store food which is sensitive
to cold in the drawer (see “Food
which is not suitable for storing in the
refrigerator section”).
- Set the slide control to the correct
position for the food being stored (hu-
midity not increased or humidity in-
creased).
- An increased humidity level in the
humidity controlled compartment is
achieved by the moisture present in
the food being stored, i.e. the more
food stored in the compartment, the
higher the humidity.
If too much moisture collects in the
compartment at the setting and
the food is affected, dry the floor with
a cloth, and place a rack or similar
item in the compartment so that ex-
cess moisture can drip down.
If the humidity level becomes too low,
wrap the food in airtight packaging.

Defrosting
45
Fridge zone and DailyFresh
drawer
The fridge zone and the DailyFresh
drawer defrost automatically.
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the fridge zone and the
DailyFresh drawer whilst the com-
pressor is running. You do not need to
remove this.
The condensate drains through a chan-
nel and drain hole into an evaporation
system at the back of the refrigeration
appliance. The warmth generated by
the compressor causes the condensate
to evaporate automatically.
Keep the condensate channel and
drain hole clean to enable this. Con-
densate must be able to drain away
unhindered at all times.

Cleaning the interior and ac-
cessories
The refrigeration appliance should be
cleaned regularly (at least once a
month).
Remove soiling immediately to pre-
vent it from drying on.
Clean the interior with a clean
sponge, lukewarm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Remove the stainless steel trims be-
fore cleaning the adjustable shelves
and door shelves in a dishwasher.
The following parts cannot be cleaned
in a dishwasher:
- the stainless steel trim or strips
- the protective strips at the back of
the adjustable shelves
- all drawers and the compartment lid
(depending on model)
- the bottle rack
These accessories should all be hand
washed.
Risk of damage as a result of ex-
cessively high dishwasher temperat-
ures.
Parts of the refrigeration appliance
may become unusable, e.g. deform,
if they are washed in the dishwasher
at more than 55°C.
For dishwasher-safe parts, only use
dishwasher programmes with a max-
imum temperature of 55°C.
Contact with natural dyes from car-
rots, tomatoes and ketchup, etc., may
discolour the plastic parts in the dish-
washer. This discolouration does not
affect the stability of the parts.
The following parts can be cleaned in
the dishwasher:
- bottle holder, butter dish, egg tray
(depending on model)
- the bottle shelf and shelves in the
door (with stainless steel trim re-
moved)
- the adjustable shelves (with the trim/
strips removed and without the print-
ing)
- the holder for the charcoal filters
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently so that con-
densate can drain away unhindered.
Use a straw or similar to clear the
drain if necessary.
Take the DailyFresh drawer out to do
this.
Leave the door open to air the appli-
ance for a short while and to prevent
odours building up.

Cleaning and care
51
Cleaning the front of the appli-
ance and the side panels
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove. Surfaces may suffer discol-
ouration or damage.
Therefore, it is best to remove soiling
from the appliance front and side
panels immediately.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching. Contact with unsuitable
cleaning agents can alter or discol-
our the surfaces.
See the information on “Cleaning
agents” at the beginning of this sec-
tion.
Clean the surfaces with a clean
sponge and a solution of warm water
and washing-up liquid. A clean, damp
microfibre cloth without cleaning
agent can also be used.
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Appliance front
Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
The front finish (CleanSteel) will be
damaged.
Do not use a stainless steel clean-
ing agent on this surface.
The appliance front has a high quality,
special finish (CleanSteel). It is resistant
to soiling and is very easy to clean.
Cleaning the ventilation grille
A build-up of dust will increase the en-
ergy consumption of the appliance.
The ventilation grille should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (e.g. use the
dusting brush for Miele vacuum
cleaners).
Tip: If you want to be reminded auto-
matically every 12 months, switch the
“Clean ventilation grille” reminder on
(see “Selecting further settings – Clean
ventilation grille reminder”).
background
Cleaning and care
52
Cleaning the door seal
If the door seal is damaged or has
slipped out of its groove, the appli-
ance door may not close properly
and cooling performance will be re-
duced. As a result, condensate will
build up in the interior cabinet and
this can cause a build-up of ice.
Do not damage the door seal and
ensure it does not slip out of its
groove.
Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
If you treat the door seal with oils or
grease, it can become porous.
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seal.
The door seal should be cleaned reg-
ularly with clean water and then
wiped dry with a cloth.
Replacing the charcoal filters
Replace the charcoal filters in the
holder every 6months.
If you would like to be reminded auto-
matically every 6months, switch on the
“Replace charcoal filter” reminder (see
“Selecting further settings – Replace
charcoal filter reminder”).
Replacement KKF-RF charcoal filters
can be obtained from the Miele Cus-
tomer Service Department, from your
dealer or from Miele's website.
Tip: The charcoal filter holder is dish-
washer-safe.
Pull the charcoal filter holder upwards
to remove it from the adjustable shelf.
When in position, the charcoal filters
must not touch the rear wall of the
refrigeration appliance as the mois-
ture could cause them to stick to it.
Insert the new charcoal filters deep
enough in the holder to ensure that
they do not protrude over the edge
of the holder.
background
Cleaning and care
53
Remove both charcoal filters and
place the new filters with the sur-
rounding edge pointing downwards in
the holder.

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 installation must comply
with VDE0100 requirements.
For safety reasons, we recommend us-
ing a type A  residual current device
(RCD) in the assigned electrical installa-
tion for connecting the refrigeration ap-
pliance.
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

higher the energy consumption is.
When installing the appliance, please
note:
- The socket must be easily accessible
in an emergency, not concealed be-
hind the appliance.
- The plug and cable must not touch
the rear of the appliance as they
could be damaged by vibrations from
the appliance.
- Do not plug in other appliances be-
hind this appliance.
Risk of damage due to corrosion.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on ex-
ternal refrigeration appliance panels.
This condensate can cause corrosion
on external appliance panels.
Install the refrigeration appliance in a
dry and/or air-conditioned room with
sufficient ventilation.
After installation please make sure
that the appliance door closes prop-
erly, the specified ventilation gaps
are adhered to and the refrigeration
appliance is installed in accordance
with these installation instructions.
Climate range
This refrigeration appliance is designed
for use within specific ambient temper-
atures (climate range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is not
designed. The climate range is stated
on the data plate in the interior cabinet
of the refrigeration appliance.
Climate range Ambient temper-
ature
SN +10to +32°C
N +16to +32°C
ST +16to +38°C
T +16to +43°C
A lower ambient temperature leads to
the compressor switching off for longer
periods. This can cause the internal
temperature in the refrigeration appli-
ance to rise with the risk of food deteri-
orating and going off.

Ventilation
Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance 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 refrigeration
appliance.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They must also be regularly dusted.
Air at the back of the refrigeration appli-
ance gets warm.
Fitting supplied wall spacers
The wall spacers supplied must be
used in order to achieve declared en-
ergy consumption values and to pre-
vent the build-up of condensation at
high ambient temperatures. The appli-
ance depth is increased by approx.
15mm with the wall spacers fitted. If
the wall spacers are not used, the

approx. 15mm for appliances with
wall spacers fitted.
The appliance can be built into any run
of kitchen units and installed directly
next to a kitchen furniture housing unit.
The appliance front must protrude in
front of furniture fronts by at least
65mm. This enables the doors to be
opened and shut without being ob-
structed. To match the height of the rest
of the kitchen, the refrigeration appli-
ance can be fitted with a suitable top
box.
When installed next to a wall, a dis-
tance of at least 40mm must be main-
tained on the hinge side between the
wall and the refrigeration appli-
ance.
The larger the ventilation gap, the
more economically the compressor
will work.
- A ventilation gap with a depth of at
least 50mm must be provided at the
back of the refrigeration appliance
across the whole width of the top box
to allow for venting.
- The ventilation gap under the ceiling
must be at least 300cm
2
to ensure
that warm air can escape without ob-
struction.

Changing the door hinging
The refrigeration appliance is supplied
with hinges on the right. If left-hand
hinging is required, the hinges must be
changed.
Always change the door hinging
with the assistance of another per-
son.
If the door seal is damaged or has
slipped out of its groove, the door
will not close properly and cooling
performance will be reduced. Con-
densate will build up in the interior
and this can cause a build-up of ice.
Do not damage the door seal and
ensure it does not slip out of its
groove.
Preparing to change the door hinging
To change the door hinging, you will
need the following tools:
Place a suitable cover on the floor in
front of the appliance to protect the
appliance door and your floor from
damage.
Remove the shelves/bottle shelf from
the appliance door.
