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 11g of coolant at least 1m
3
of
room space is required. The amount of coolant in the refrigeration
appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
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.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
The appliance must be disconnected from the power supply dur-
ing installation, maintenance and repair work, and during installation
work on the mains water connection. It is only completely isolated
from the power supply when:
- the mains fuses are switched off, or
- the screw-out fuse is removed (where applicable), or
- the mains cable has been unplugged. Pull on the plug and not the
cable when disconnecting it from the power supply.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs, or a faulty
mains water connection can cause considerable danger for the user.
Installation, maintenance and repairs, installation work on the mains
water connection, and all repairs on the ice/water outlet must only
ever be carried out by a Miele-authorised technician.
The ice-cube maker must only be connected to a cold water sup-
ply.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by a faulty mains
water connection.
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.

partment. This refrigeration appliance contains several light sources
with at least energy efficiency classG.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
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.
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.
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. Do not store cans
or bottles containing carbonated drinks or liquids which could freeze
in the freezer zone. Otherwise they could burst.
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. When cooling
drinks quickly in the freezer zone, make sure bottles are not left in for
more than one hour. Otherwise they could burst.
Danger of injury. Never handle frozen food or the metal parts of
the appliance with wet hands. Your hands may freeze to the frozen
food or to the metal.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Danger of injury. Do not take ice cubes out with your bare hands
and never place ice cubes or ice lollies in your mouth straight from
the freezer zone. The very low temperature of the frozen food can
cause frost burn to the lips and tongue.
Do not refreeze partially or fully defrosted food. Consume defros-
ted food as soon as possible, as it will lose its nutritional value and
spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it
has been cooked.
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 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of
your refrigeration appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Cleaning and care
Throw away the first 3 batches of ice to rinse the ice cube maker
and the water pipes. Do this:
- before using for the first time
- if the ice cube maker has not been used for a long time
- regularly when in continuous use (at least once a month) to re-
move ice residues from the system (to avoid a blockage of the
water supply)
- before switching off the ice cube maker for a long period of time
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.
Warning and Safety instructions
14
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
15
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.

ter inlet pipe can freeze up.
Turn the ice cube maker off if the wa-
ter inlet is turned off (e.g. while on
holiday).
Close the stopcock for the water in-
let.
Clean the refrigeration appliance and
leave the door ajar to air the appli-
ance and avoid odours building up in-
side.
The correct temperature
27
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.
To freeze fresh food and to store frozen
food for long periods, a temperature of
-18°C is required. At this temperature
the growth of bacteria is generally hal-
ted. As soon as the temperature rises
above -10°C, the bacteria become act-
ive in the food again so it cannot be
kept as long. For this reason, partially
defrosted or defrosted food must not be
re-frozen. Food may be re-frozen once it
has been cooked, as the high temperat-
ures achieved when cooking destroy
most bacteria.
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 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.

Tip: If you have adjusted the temperat-
ure, wait for approx. 6hours if the ap-
pliance is not very full and for approx.
24hours if the appliance is full before
checking the temperature display. It will
take this long for the appliance to give
an accurate reading.
If, after this time, the temperature is
still too high or too low, you will need
to adjust it again.
Using Super freeze
29
The Super freeze function can also
be switched on.
Super freeze function
For optimum results switch on the Su-
per freeze function before putting fresh
food into the freezer section. This helps
food to freeze quickly and retain its nu-
trients, vitamins, flavours and appear-
ance.
Exceptions:
- When placing food in the freezer that
is already frozen
- When freezing up to 1kg of fresh
food daily
The SuperFreeze function should be
switched on 6hours before placing
food in the freezer section.
When freezing the maximum amount
of food the SuperFreeze function
should be switched on 24hours be-
forehand.
When SuperFreeze is switched on, the
appliance will work at full power to
lower the temperature in the freezer.
The SuperFreeze function will switch it-
self off automatically after approx.
65hours. The quantity of fresh food
placed in the freezer will determine the
time before the SuperFreeze function
turns off.
Tip: To save energy, you can manually
switch off SuperFreeze once the freezer
reaches a constant temperature of
-18°C or colder. Monitor the temperat-
ure in the freezer section.
When SuperFreeze is switched off, the
appliance will run at normal power

The appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature in the freezer cannot rise
unnoticed and to avoid energy being
wasted if the door is left open.
Temperature alarm
Health risk caused by decom-
posing food.
If the temperature in the freezer re-
mains above -18°C for a long time,
the frozen goods can start to defrost.
This will reduce the storage life of the
food.
Check whether the frozen goods
have started to defrost. If they have,
check that the food is safe to use
and if it is, then use it as soon as
possible or cook it before freezing it
again.
If the temperature in the freezer be-
comes too warm,
will light up red in
the temperature display. An alarm will
also sound until the cause of the alarm
is rectified or the alarm is switched off.
The temperature the refrigeration appli-
ance is set at determines the temperat-
ure the appliance recognises as being
too warm.
The temperature alarm is only dis-
played on the status display and not
when selecting a setting.
A temperature alarm is displayed be-
fore an existing door alarm.
The audible and visual signals will be
activated if:
- You switch on the refrigeration appli-
ance and the temperature in a tem-
perature zone differs greatly from the
set temperature.
- A lot of warm room air enters the
freezer when you are rearranging or
taking out frozen goods.
- You are freezing large amounts of
food at once.
- You are freezing warm food.
- There was a mains outage.
- The refrigeration appliance has a
fault.
The alarm will stop and
will go out
as soon as the temperature has
dropped down to the correct level
again.

Risk to health due to contamin-
ated water.
Bacteria can develop in water which
has been sitting in the water supply
lines for too long. This poses a risk to
your health.
Throw away the first 3 batches of ice
cubes made after the ice cube maker
is started up, as the water will have
been used for the initial rinsing of the
water supply line.
This applies to the initial commis-
sioning as well as when using the ice
cube maker again after it has been
switched off for an extended period
of time (more than 5days).
Only make normal domestic quantities
of ice cubes with the ice cube maker.
Please note:
- When using the appliance for the first
time, it can take up to 24hours for
the first ice cubes to drop out of the
ice cube maker and collect in the
drawer.
- After the ice cube maker has been
turned off and on again, this process
lasts max. 6hours.
- Make sure that the ice cube drawer is
empty before switching on the ice
cube maker.
- Ice cubes can only be made when
the ice cube drawer is completely
closed.

Freezing and storing food
43
Maximum freezing capacity
To ensure that fresh food placed in the
freezer freezes through to the core as
quickly as possible, the maximum
freezing capacity must not be ex-
ceeded. The maximum freezing capa-
city for freezing within a 24-hour period
is given on the data plate: “Freezing ca-
pacity...kg/24hrs”.
Freezing fresh food
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly
as possible. This way the nutritional
value of the food, its vitamin content,
appearance and taste are not impaired.
Food which takes a long time to freeze
will lose more water from its cells,
which then shrink. During the defrosting
process, only some of this water is re-
absorbed by the cells. What this means
in practice is that the food loses more
moisture. You can see this in the large
amount of water that collects around
the food when it defrosts.
If food is frozen quickly, the cells have
less time to lose moisture, so they
shrink less. As there is not so much
moisture loss, it is easier for the food to
reabsorb it during the defrosting pro-
cess, and very little water collects
around the defrosted food.
Storing frozen food
Never re-freeze partially or fully de-
frosted food. Defrosted food may
only be re-frozen after it has been
cooked.
When buying frozen food to store in
your freezer, check:
- That the packaging is not damaged
- The use-by date
- The temperature at which the frozen
food is being stored in the shop.
The length of time food can be kept
is reduced if it has been stored at a
temperature warmer than -18°C.
Buy frozen food once you have fin-
ished the rest of your shopping and
wrap it in newspaper or use a cool
bag or cool box to transport it.
Put it into the freezer as soon as pos-
sible.
Freezing and storing food
44
Home freezing
Only freeze fresh food which is in a
good condition.
Hints on home freezing
- The following types of food are suit-
able for freezing:
Fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, ve-
getables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy
products, cakes, leftovers, egg yolks,
egg whites and a range of pre-
cooked meals.
- The following types of food are not
suitable for freezing:
Grapes, lettuce, radishes, soured
cream, mayonnaise, eggs in their
shells, onions, whole raw apples and
pears.
- To retain colour, taste, aroma and vit-
amin C, vegetables should be
blanched before they are frozen. To
do so place them portion by portion
into boiling water for 2–3minutes.
Remove, and plunge into ice-cold
water to cool quickly. Drain and pack
ready for freezing.
- Lean meat freezes better than fatty
meat, and can be stored for consid-
erably longer.
- Separate chops, steaks, cutlets etc.
with a sheet of plastic freezer film.
This prevents them from freezing to-
gether in a block.
- Do not salt or season raw food or
blanched vegetables before freezing.
Cooked food should only be lightly
salted and seasoned. Some herbs in-
tensify the taste of food when frozen.
- Placing hot foods or drinks in the
freezer causes food that is already
frozen to partially thaw and increases
energy consumption. Allow hot foods
and drinks to cool down before pla-
cing them in the freezer.
Packaging food for freezing
Freeze food in portions.
–Suitable packing material
- Plastic freezer bags
- Tubular polythene freezer bags
- Aluminum foil
- Freezer containers
–Unsuitable packing material
- Wrapping paper
- Greaseproof paper
- Cellophane
- Bin bags
- Plastic carrier bags
Expel as much air as possible from
the packaging.
Close the packaging tightly with
- Rubber bands
- Plastic clips
- String
- Freezer tape
Tip: Freezer bags may also be sealed
using home heat sealing kits.
Make a note of the contents and the
date of freezing on the packaging.
Freezing and storing food
45
Before placing food in the appliance
When freezing more than 1kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function some time before pla-
cing the food in the freezer (see “Su-
per freeze”).
This helps create a cold reserve in food
which is already stored in the freezer.
Placing food in the freezer section
If the food is too heavy, this can
cause damage.
Loading food which is too heavy can
cause damage to the freezer draw-
ers/glass shelves.
Do not exceed the relevant maximum
load:
–Top freezer drawer = 15kg
–Bottom freezer drawer = 10kg
–All other freezer drawers = 25kg
–Glass plates = 35kg
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause frozen
food to begin to thaw.
Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
–Freezing small amounts of food
Place the food in the lower freezer
drawers.
Place the food flat in the bottom of
the freezer drawers so that it freezes
through to the core as quickly as pos-
sible.
–Freezing the maximum amount of
food (see data plate)
If the ventilation slots are blocked the
cooling performance will decrease
and energy consumption will in-
crease.
When placing food in the freezer,
make sure that the ventilation slots
are not blocked.
Remove the upper freezer drawers.
Place the food flat on the upper glass
shelves so that it freezes through to
the core as quickly as possible.
Once frozen:
Place the frozen food in the freezer
drawer and push it back in.
Freezing and storing food
46
Storage time for frozen food
The storage life of food is very variable,
even at a constant temperature of
-18°C. Decomposition processes also
take place in frozen food, albeit at a
very reduced speed. For example, fat
can become rancid from contact with
oxygen in the air. This is why lean meat
can be stored approx. twice as long as
fatty meat.
The storage times quoted are guide val-
ues for the storage life of different food
groups in the freezer zone.
Food group Storage
time
(Months)
Ice cream 2to6
Bread, baked goods 2to6
Cheese 2to4
Fish, oily 1to2
Fish, lean 1to5
Sausage, ham 1to3
Game, pork 1to12
Poultry, beef 2to10
Vegetables, fruit 6to18
Herbs 6to10
For standard freezing results, follow the
advice on packaging.
By keeping the freezer zone at a con-
stant temperature of -18°C and taking
appropriate hygiene measures you can
maximise the storage life of your food
and avoid food waste.
Defrosting frozen goods
Never re-freeze partially or fully de-
frosted food. Defrosted food may only
be re-frozen after it has been cooked.
Frozen goods can be defrosted in differ-
ent ways:
- In a microwave oven
- In an oven using “Fan heat” or the
“Defrost” setting
- At room temperature
- In the refrigerator zone (the cold
given off by the frozen food helps to
keep the other food cold)
- In a steam oven
Flat pieces of partially thawed meat
or fish can be placed directly into a hot
frying pan.
Meat and poultry (e.g. mince, chicken,
fish fillets) should not come into contact
with other foods while defrosting. Catch
the liquid from defrosting and dispose
of it carefully.
Fruit should be defrosted at room tem-
perature in its packaging, or in a
covered bowl.
Most vegetables can be cooked while
still frozen. Just put straight into boiling
water or hot fat. The cooking time is
slightly less than that of fresh veget-
ables due to changes in the cell struc-
ture.
Freezing and storing food
47
Cooling drinks quickly
When cooling drinks quickly in the
freezer, make sure bottles are not left in
for more than one hour. Otherwise
they could burst.
Tip: To avoid forgetting about bottles
placed in the freezer you can set the
minute minder (QuickCool timer) in Set-
tings mode.
Making ice cubes
Switching the ice cube maker on and
off
For instructions on how to switch the
ice cube make on and off see “Select-
ing further settings” - “Switching the
ice cube maker on and off”.
Making a large amount of ice cubes
The amount of ice cubes produced de-
pends on the temperature in the freezer.
The lower the temperature, the more ice
cubes are produced within a given time.
At a temperature of -18°C, approx. 1kg
of ice cubes will be produced within
24hours.
Tip: If you require a large amount of ice
cubes, replace the full ice cube drawer
with the drawer beside it on the right.
The ice maker will begin to produce ice
cubes again as soon as this drawer has
been placed in position and closed
properly.
Switching the ice cube maker off for
a long time.
Risk of damage!
If the water inlet is blocked while the
ice cube maker is still in use, the wa-
ter inlet pipe can freeze up.
Turn the ice cube maker off if the wa-
ter supply is turned off (e.g. while on
holiday).
Close the stopcock for the water in-
let.
If begins to flash in the display, this
means that there is still water remaining

The lowest freezer drawer in your appli-
ance can be used as a freezer tray.
The freezer tray can be used to effect-
ively freeze small items such as berries,
herbs, vegetables etc.
The food keeps it shape and generally
does not freeze together in a lump.
Space the food out loosely on the
tray.
Leave to freeze for 10 to 12 hours. Then
fill in freezer bags or containers and
place in the freezer drawers.
Using the cool pack
The cool pack prevents the temperature
in the freezer zone from rising too
quickly in the event of a power cut. This
can help prolong the storage life.
Place the cool pack in the top drawer
of the freezer zone.
The cool pack will be at its most effect-
ive after it has been in the freezer for
approx. 24hours.
–In the event of a power cut
Place the frozen cool pack directly on
top of the frozen food in the front of
the top drawer.
Tip: When placing fresh food in the
freezer, use the cool pack to separate
the fresh food from the food which is
already frozen so that the frozen food
does not begin to thaw.

Adjusting the interior fittings
Removing freezer drawers on tele-
scopic runners
Some of the freezer drawers are on tele-
scopic runners and can be removed for
filling, emptying or cleaning purposes:
You can also expand the space avail-
able in the freezer section. If you wish to
freeze large frozen goods such as a tur-
key or game, the glass shelves between
the drawers can be removed.
Pull the drawers out as far as they will
go.
Holding the sides of the drawer at the
back, lift it up and then forwards and
out.
Push the runners back in again to
avoid damaging them.
Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
The telescopic runners contain a
special lubricant which can be
washed out during cleaning, dam-
aging the runners.
Wipe the telescopic runners with a
damp cloth to clean them.
To replace the drawer, push the run-
ners back in completely and then
place the drawer on them.
Push the drawer into the refrigeration
appliance until it clicks into position.
Removing the shelves.
The shelves can be removed.
Lift the shelf slightly at the front and
then pull it forwards and out.
Automatic defrosting
50
The appliance is equipped with a
“NoFrost” system. The freezer defrosts
automatically.
The moisture generated in the appli-
ance collects on the condenser and is
automatically defrosted and dissipated
from time to time.
This automatic defrosting system en-
ables the freezer to remain permanently
ice-free. Food stored in the freezer will
not defrost with this system.
Cleaning and care
51
Do not let water get into the elec-
tronic module or the lighting.
Risk of damage due to moisture
ingress.
The steam from a steam cleaner can
damage plastic and and electrical
components.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the refrigeration appliance.
The data plate located inside the in-
terior cabinet of the refrigeration appli-
ance must not be removed. It contains
information which is required in the
event of a service call.
Cleaning agents
Cleaning and conditioning agents
used inside the appliance must be
food safe.
To avoid damaging all the surfaces of
your appliance, do not use:
- cleaning agents containing soda, am-
monia, acids or chlorides
- cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
- solvent-based cleaning agents
- stainless steel cleaning agents
- dishwasher cleaner
- oven sprays
- glass cleaning agents
- hard, abrasive sponges and brushes,
e.g. pot scourers
- melamine eraser blocks
- sharp metal scrapers
We recommend using a clean sponge,
lukewarm water with a little washing-up
liquid to clean surfaces of the appli-
ance.
The following pages contain important
information on cleaning.
Cleaning and care
52
Cleaning the ice cube tray
Clean the ice cube tray
– before switching off the ice cube
maker for a long time.
– regularly, to remove ice and water
residues.
The ice cube tray cannot be removed
and must be cleaned in situ. For this
reason the ice cube tray must be set to
the cleaning position.
Selecting the cleaning position
The ice cube maker has to be
switched on before the “Select clean-
ing position” function can be selec-
ted.
The ice cube drawer must also be in
position.
Empty the ice cube drawer and place
it in the appliance.
Select the symbol in Settings
mode.
The selected setting is applied. You will
hear the ice cube tray turn so that it is
at an angle.
Wait until the ice cube tray has com-
pleted this rotation before continuing.
The symbol will appear in the dis-
play.
Remove the ice cube drawer.
Clean the ice cube tray and the ice
cube drawer with lukewarm water
and a little washing up liquid. Wipe
thoroughly with clean water and dry
with a cloth.
Insert the ice cube drawer back into
the appliance.
After cleaning, confirm withOK.
You will hear the ice cube tray return to
its original position.

switched off.
Take any food out of the refrigeration
appliance and store it in a cool place.
Take out the freezer drawers and
glass plates.
Pull the trim off the right and left hand
sides of the top glass plate.
Removing the telescopic runners
To remove the telescopic runners:
1. Push the catch upwards.
2. Push the telescopic runner to the
side.
3. Then pull the telescopic runner off to
the rear.
After cleaning, reattach the telescopic
runners to the shelf.
1. Do so by hooking the telescopic run-
ner on at the rear.
2. Then clip the catches into position at
the front.
Take out all other removable parts for
cleaning.
Cleaning and care
54
Cleaning the interior and ac-
cessories
The refrigeration appliance should be
cleaned regularly (roughly twice a
year).
Remove soiling immediately to pre-
vent it from drying on.
The best time to do this is when:
- There is very little or no frozen food
left in the freezer zone.
- The humidity level in the room is low
and the ambient temperature in the
room is also low (cooler part of the
year).
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.
Leave the door open to air the appli-
ance for a short while and to prevent
odours building up.
The following parts cannot be cleaned
in a dishwasher:
- all drawers and the compartment lid
(depending on model)
- the glass plates with trim
- the cool pack
These accessories should all be hand
washed.
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.
Cleaning and care
55
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”).
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.
Starting up the appliance after
cleaning
Slide all shelves back into the appli-
ance.
Reconnect to the mains and switch
the appliance back on.
Switch on the Super freeze function
for a while so that the freezer section
can cool down quickly.
Once the temperature in the freezer
has reached the required temperat-
ure, place the food back in the freezer
drawers and put them back in the
freezer. Then close the appliance
door.
Switch off the Super freeze function
as soon as the temperature in the
freezer is a constant -18°C or colder.
Problem solving guide
56
Many malfunctions and faults that can occur in daily operation can be easily
remedied. Time and money will be saved because a service call will not be
needed.
The following guide may help you to find the reason for a malfunction or a fault,
and to correct it.
To prevent unnecessary loss of temperature it is advisable not to open the door
while waiting for the appliance to be serviced.
Problem Cause and remedy
The appliance is not
getting cold and the in-
terior lighting does not
come on when the door
is opened.
The appliance has not been switched on.
Switch the appliance on.
The mains plug is not inserted in the socket correctly
or the plug connector is not inserted into the socket
at the back of the appliance correctly.
Insert the mains plug into the mains socket and
the plug connector into the appliance socket cor-
rectly and switch on.
Check whether the mains fuse has tripped. There
could be a fault with the appliance, the household
electrical wiring or another electrical appliance.
Contact a qualified electrician or Miele.
The compressor runs
continuously.
This is not a fault. To save energy, the compressor
runs at a lower speed, but for longer, when less
cooling is required.
Problem solving guide
57
Problem Cause and remedy
The compressor is
switching on more fre-
quently and for longer
periods of time. The
temperature in the refri-
geration appliance is
too low.
The ventilation gaps have been covered or become
too dusty.
Do not block the ventilation gaps.
Dust the ventilation gaps regularly.
The appliance door has been opened too frequently,
or a large amount of fresh food has been placed in
the appliance for freezing.
Only open the door when necessary and for as
short a time as possible.
After a while, the temperature will return to normal by
itself.
The appliance door is not properly closed. A thick
layer of ice may have formed in the freezer.
Close the appliance door.
After a while, the temperature will return to normal by
itself.
If a thick layer of ice has formed, it will reduce effi-
ciency and increase the energy consumption.
Defrost the refrigeration appliance and clean it.
The ambient room temperature is too high. The
higher the room temperature, the longer the com-
pressor will run for.
See the information under “Installation – Location”.
The temperature setting in the refrigeration appliance
is too low.
Correct the temperature setting.
The SuperFreeze function is still switched on.
You can switch off the SuperFreeze function earlier
to save energy.
Problem solving guide
58
Problem Cause and remedy
The compressor comes
on less and less often
and for shorter periods
of time. The temperat-
ure in the refrigeration
appliance rises.
Not a fault. The temperature setting is too high.
Correct the temperature setting.
Check the temperature again after 24hours.
The frozen goods begin to defrost.
The room temperature is too low for this refrigeration
appliance.
If the room temperature is too low, the compressor
will run less frequently. This may cause the freezer
section to become too warm.
See the information under “Installation – Location”.
Increase the temperature of the room.
Ice or condensation has
built up inside the refri-
geration appliance. The
appliance door may not
close correctly.
The door seal has come out of its groove.
Check that the door seal is correctly positioned in
the groove.
The door seal is damaged.
Check whether the door seal is damaged.
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 Miele or from specialist retailers.
Frost has accumulated
on the front panel of the
NoFrost module.
Not a fault. Condensation has settled on the panel
and frozen.
Possible reasons for this include:
– The appliance door has been opened too often
or has been left open.
– A large amount of food being frozen at once.
– The humidity in the room has increased.
Keep the appliance door closed as much as pos-
sible. The NoFrost system will automatically de-
frost the layer of ice over the next few days.

Installation
Fire risk and risk of damage from
appliances which give off heat.
Appliances which give off heat can
catch fire and set fire to the refrigera-
tion appliance.
Do not place appliances which give
off heat, such as mini-ovens, double
burner hobs or toasters on the refri-
geration appliance.
Fire risk and danger of damage
from open flames.
Open flames can set fire to the refri-
geration appliance.
Keep open flames (e.g. a candle)
away from the refrigeration appli-
ance.
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
The appliance is designed for use within
a certain climate range (ambient tem-
perature) and should not be used out-
side this range.
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to switch off
for too long, causing the temperature
inside the appliance to rise with the risk
of food deteriorating and going off.
The climate range is stated on the data
plate inside the appliance.
Climate range Ambient room
temperature
SN +10to +32°C
N +16to +32°C
ST +16to +38°C
T +16to +43°C
A freezer from the SN climate range
can operate without any difficulties in
rooms with a cooler ambient temper-
ature (down to +5°C).
Installation
*INSTALLATION*
72
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.
15mm with the wall spacers fitted. If
the wall spacers are not used, the
functionality of the appliance is not af-
fected. Energy consumption is only
slightly increased with less distance
between the appliance and the wall.
Fit the wall spacers onto the back of
the refrigeration appliance on the bot-
tom left and right.

Limiting the opening angle of the ap-
pliance door
The door hinges are set ex works to en-
able the door to be opened up to 115°.
If the appliance door hits an adjacent
wall when opened, for example, the
opening angle can be limited toapprox.
90°:
The door opening angle limiter should
be fitted before the refrigeration appli-
ance is installed.

the appliance to unscrew the ad-
justable foot until it is resting on the
floor.
Then unscrew the adjustable foot by
a further quarter turn.
Installing the appliance in a run of
kitchen units
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 ventila-
tion gaps given.

* The appliance depth is increased by
approx. 15mm 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
65mm. 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 40mm must be main-
tained on the hinge side between the
wall and the refrigeration appli-
ance.

Installing in a side-by-side
combination
To avoid a build-up of condensation
and resultant damage, refrigeration
appliances should not generally be in-
stalled directly next to other such ap-
pliances (side-by-side). Your appliance
has side-wall heating and can there-
fore be installed side-by-side with an-
other refrigeration appliance.
Risk of damage!
The assembled side-by-side combin-
ation is very heavy. Incorrect moving
of the combination can cause the
appliances to become dented or
glass fronts to shatter.
Please observe the following notes
when moving a side-by-side appli-
ance combination.
It is essential that all side-by-side in-
stallation work is carried out by two
people.
