IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Technical safety
The coolant circuit has been checked for leaks. The refrigeration
appliance complies with statutory and regulatory requirements.
If the cooling circuit is damaged, refrigerant and oil can escape and ignite.
Warning: fire hazard/flammable materials. This symbol is on the
compressor and indicates flammable materials. Do not remove this
sticker.
The refrigerant inside the appliance (details on the data plate) is envi-
ronmentally friendly but flammable.
The use of this refrigerant does, however, sometimes lead to a slight
increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of
the compressor, you might be able to hear the 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 refriger-
ant can damage the eyes and leaking refrigerant can ignite.
In the event of damage:
- Avoid open flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the refrigeration appliance from the power supply.
- Ventilate the room where the refrigeration appliance is located for
several minutes.
- Contact Miele Service.
The more refrigerant 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 8g of refrigerant, at least 3.3ft
(1m)
3
of room space is required. The amount of refrigerant in the re-
frigeration appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
If the ventilation openings are covered or blocked, a combustible
gas/air mixture can form if the cooling circuit is damaged. It is essen-
tial to observe the required ventilation openings. The ventilation
openings must never be obstructed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 the appliance can only be guaranteed when
correctly grounded. It is essential that this standard safety require-
ment is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation
tested by a qualified electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronized with
the grid power supply (e.g., island networks, back-up systems) is pos-
sible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system
complies with national and local codes.
The function and operation of the protective measures provided in
the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must
also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply, or these measures must be
replaced by equivalent measures in the installation.
The outlet must not be concealed behind the appliance and must
be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly discon-
nected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency. If free ac-
cess is not possible, an all-pole isolating switch must be integrated in
the permanent electrical installation according to the installation reg-
ulations.
If the power cord is damaged, disconnect the refrigeration appli-
ance from the power supply immediately. Close the water supply
shut-off valve. Contact Miele Service.
If the power cord supplied is damaged, it must only be replaced by
an original part to prevent a hazard for the user. Miele can only guar-
antee the safety of the appliance when original Miele parts are used.
For safety reasons, this replacement should only be carried out by a
qualified specialist or MieleService.
The electrical outlet must be properly grounded.
Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power
bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Correct use
The refrigeration appliance is designed for use within a specific cli-
mate class (room temperature range). Do not use in a climate class
for which it is not designed. A lower room temperature will cause the
compressor to switch off for longer periods, meaning that the refrig-
eration appliance is unable to maintain the required temperature.
WARNING! DANGER of overheating! Do not cover or block the air
vents. This can impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the
power consumption and cause damage to the appliance.
If storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil in the appliance,
make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic compo-
nents as this could cause stress cracks or break the plastic.
Refrigeration appliance components which are made of metal or
look like metal can contain aluminum. If acidic food comes into con-
tact with aluminum, aluminum ions can be released into the food. Do
not store food loose in the refrigeration appliance.
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store any explosive materials or
products containing flammable propellants (e.g., spray cans) in the
appliance. Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of
gases to ignite.
WARNING! Risk of explosion. Do not operate any electrical equip-
ment (e.g., an electric ice-cream maker) inside the refrigeration appli-
ance. Risk of sparking and explosion.
Risk of injury and damage. Do not store cans or bottles containing
carbonated drinks or liquids which could freeze in the freezer zone,
the MasterFresh Pro drawer, or the DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer.
Otherwise they could burst.
Risk of injury and damage. When chilling drinks in the freezer zone,
make sure that bottles are not left in for more than one hour. Other-
wise they could burst.
Risk 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.
Risk of injury. Do not take ice cubes out with your bare hands and
never place ice cubes or ice pops in your mouth straight from the
freezer section. The very low temperature of the frozen food can
cause frost burn to the lips and tongue.
12
background
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not refreeze partially or fully defrosted food. Consume de-
frosted food as soon as possible, as it will lose its nutritional value
and spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be refrozen after
it has been cooked.
When eating stored food, there is a danger 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. Observe the manufacturer's “use-by” dates and storage in-
structions.
Do not sit, stand, or lean on the shelves or drawers when they are
pulled out. This could damage the refrigeration appliance.
Accessories and parts
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from
other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become invalid.
Cleaning and maintenance
Do not use any oil or grease on the door seals.
They can cause the seals to deteriorate over time.
WARNING! DANGER of injury and damage! Do not use any me-
chanical tools or other types of aid which are not recommended by
the manufacturer to accelerate the defrosting process.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
The steam can reach the 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 or ice,
- separate frozen foods or remove ice trays.
Never place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to defrost
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.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Disposal of your old appliance
DANGER! Risk of child entrapment! Children could become
trapped in the refrigeration appliance and could suffocate.
- Remove the appliance door(s).
- Remove the drawers.
- Leave the adjustable shelves in the refrigeration appliance so chil-
dren cannot climb inside.
- 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.
Risk of electric shock!
- Cut the electrical plug off the power cord.
- Cut the power cord off the old appliance.
Dispose of the electrical plug and power cord separately from the old
appliance.
Ensure that the appliance is not stored in the vicinity of gasoline or
inflammable gases and liquids during and after disposal.
WARNING! Risk of fire due to escaping oil or refrigerant!
The refrigerant and oil inside the appliance are flammable. In high
enough concentrations, escaping refrigerant or oil may ignite if they
come into contact with an external heat source.
During disposal, make sure that the cooling circuit is not damaged in
order to prevent refrigerant and oil escaping in an uncontrolled man-
ner (see the data plate for details of the refrigerant).
Splashes of coolant can cause damage to the eyes. Be careful not
to damage any part of the pipework while awaiting disposal, e.g. by
- puncturing the coolant channels in the evaporator,
- kinking any pipework,
- scratching the surface coating.

Sustainability and environmental protection
Disposal of the packing material
The cardboard box and packing materi-
als protect the appliance during ship-
ping. They have been designed to be
biodegradable and recyclable.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags,
etc. are disposed of safely and kept out
of the reach of children. Danger of suffo-
cation!
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances con-
tain many valuable materials. They also
contain certain materials, compounds,
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 household waste or if handled in-
correctly. Please do not, therefore, dis-
pose of your old appliance with house-
hold waste.
Take care not to damage your refrigera-
tor before or during disposal in an au-
thorized, environmentally-friendly man-
ner.
This is to ensure that refrigerant in the
cooling circuit and oil in the compressor
is contained, and will not leak into the
environment.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal loca-
tions to dispose of and recycle electrical
and electronic appliances in your local
community, with your dealer, or with
Miele, free of charge. By law, you are
solely responsible for deleting any per-
sonal data from the appliance prior to
disposal. You are legally obliged to re-
move any old batteries which are not
securely enclosed by the appliance and
to remove any lamps without destroying
them, where this is possible. These
must be taken to a suitable collection
point where they can be handed in free
of charge. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children while
being stored for disposal.

Electrical plugs or power cords must
not touch the refrigeration appliance.
Power cords must not be trapped or
damaged.
Do not connect any other appliances
to sockets located directly behind
this refrigeration appliance.
Do not place or operate power bars,
distributor strips, or other electronic
devices (such as halogen transform-
ers) behind the appliance.
This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
Only install the refrigeration appliance in
a solid, rectangular, and level housing
unit, positioned on an even and level
floor.
Risk of damage due to high hu-
midity.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on exter-
nal refrigeration appliance panels.
This condensation can cause corro-
sion 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(s) closes
(close) properly and the refrigeration
appliance is installed in accordance
with these installation instructions.
The specified ventilation opening
specifications must be observed.
When deciding on the installation site,
please bear in mind that your refrigera-
tion appliance will use more energy if in-
stalled near to a heater, a range, or an-
other appliance that gives off heat.
Avoid direct sunlight. Higher ambient
temperatures increase energy con-
sumption as the compressor runs for
longer.
If installation near a heat source is un-
avoidable, observe the following mini-
mum distances between the appliance
and the heat source:
- at least 1" (3cm)
to electric or gas stoves
- at least 11" (30cm)
to oil or coal-based stoves
If it is not possible to observe these
minimum distances, an isolation plate
must be installed between the refrigera-
tion appliance and the heat source.

Climate range
This refrigeration appliance is designed
for the SN-T climate class range (ambi-
ent temperature range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is not
designed.
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.
Climate range Ambient temper-
ature

cooler ambient temperature (down to
+41°F/5°C).
Before installation
Do not install a damaged refrigeration
appliance.
Risk of damaging the floor from
the load.
Moving the refrigeration appliance
can cause damage to the floor.
Move the refrigeration appliance
carefully on floors that are sensitive
to scratching.
Load-bearing capacity of the niche
floor
To ensure the safe installation of the re-
frigeration appliance and to guarantee
its correct functioning, the floor of the
niche where the appliance is to be in-
stalled must be smooth and even.
It must be made from strong, rigid ma-
terial.
Because the refrigeration appliance is
extremely heavy when fully loaded, it is
essential that the floor it stands on is
able to bear its weight. If necessary,
seek the advice of an architect or con-
struction expert.
When fully loaded, the weight of the re-
frigeration appliance is approx. 1054 lbs
(478 kg).

Installation
Side-by-side installation
Your refrigeration appliance can be in-
stalled with another refrigeration appli-
ance next to it as it is equipped with in-
tegrated heaters in the side panels.
Tip: Please contact your dealer for spe-
cific information about which combina-
tions will work with your refrigeration
appliance.
The side-by-side installation kit can be
purchased from Miele Service or your
Miele dealer.
Ventilation
Fire hazard and risk of damage
due to inadequate ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
ventilated sufficiently, the compres-
sor will run more frequently and for
longer periods. This causes increased
energy consumption and an in-
creased compressor operating tem-
perature, which can result in damage
to the refrigeration appliance.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the refrigeration
appliance.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation openings.
The ventilation openings must never
be obstructed.
Clean the ventilation areas regularly
to remove dust and dirt.
Air at the back of the refrigeration appli-
ance gets warm. The appliance housing
unit must therefore be constructed to
allow sufficient space for ventilation.
Door hinge change
Risk of damage and injury when
changing the door hinges.
Changing the door hinges single-
handedly can cause damage to the
appliance and injury.
The refrigeration appliance is sup-
plied with a fixed door hinge. On no
account should you attempt to
change the door hinge yourself.
If you need to change the door hinge
to the other side, please contact the
Technical Service department.
Safety notes for the plumbed
water connection
Follow the installation instructions
supplied for the plumbed water con-
nection.
Risk of injury and appliance dam-
age if appliance is not connected
properly.
Failing to connect the appliance
properly can result in personal injury
and/or material damage.
The appliance may only be con-
nected to the plumbed-water con-
nection by qualified specialists.
Disconnect the refrigeration ap-
pliance from the power supply before
connecting it to the water supply.
Close the shut-off valve before con-
necting the refrigeration appliance to
the water supply.
23
background
Installation
WARNING! Risk to health and
risk of damage due to contaminated
water!
The quality of the incoming water
must conform to the requirements
for drinking water in the country
where the refrigeration appliance is
being used.
Connect the refrigeration appliance
to the drinking-water supply.
This refrigeration appliance meets the
requirements of IEC61770 and
EN61770.
Connection to the water supply must
comply with the applicable regula-
tions in the country where the appli-
ance is being installed. All appliances
and systems used to supply water to
the refrigeration appliance must also
comply with the applicable regula-
tions in the respective country.
The refrigeration appliance is only
suitable for connection to a cold water
supply, which
- is directly connected to the plumbed
water supply in order to ensure that
water is circulated in the cold water
line
Avoid connection to a water supply in
which the water might stagnate. This
can affect the taste of water and ice
cubes.
- withstands the operating pressure
- fulfills hygiene regulations
The water pressure must be between
29 and 116psi (2 and 8bar/0.2 and
0.8MPa).
Unduly high water pressure in the
system can result in damage to the
refrigeration appliance.
Install a pressure reducing valve if the
water pressure in the system ex-
ceeds 116psi (8bar/0.8MPa).
Contact a plumber if you are unsure
of your water pressure.
A shut-off valve must be provided be-
tween the water line and the water sup-
ply of the building to ensure that the
water supply can be cut off if necessary.
Make sure that the shut-off valve is
still accessible after the refrigeration
appliance has been installed.
Risk of damage to the ice maker.
If the water inlet is interrupted while
the ice maker is switched on, the
electronic may be damaged. The wa-
ter inlet pipe may also freeze up.
Turn the ice maker off if the water
supply is interrupted (e.g., while on
vacation).
Water filter
The water system will only function if a
water filter is installed in the refrigera-
tion appliance.
Your refrigeration appliance is equipped
with a water filter (active charcoal fil-
ter) that filters tap water for making ice
cubes and using the water dispenser.
The active charcoal filter does not filter
bacteria or microbes out of the water.
The active charcoal filter removes chlo-
rine and other substances that may im-
pair the taste and smell from the tap
water so that only high-quality water is
used for ice cube production and the
24
background
Installation
water dispenser.
The active charcoal filter must be re-
placed on a regular basis.
Alternatively (if an external water filter
is attached to your household water
supply, for example), you can use a
mesh filter in place of an active char-
coal filter.
Unlike the active charcoal filter, the
mesh filter only filters larger particles
out of tap water.
The mesh filter does not have to be
changed. The mesh filter must be
cleaned on a regular basis.
If you wish to use a mesh filter instead
of an active charcoal filter, you must
adjust the Settings: Set-
tingsAppliance functionFilter
managementFilter type.
New active charcoal filters are avail-
able from Miele Service, your Miele
dealer, or via the Internet.
You can buy the mesh filter as a spare
part from Miele Service, your Miele
dealer, or via the Internet.
Changing the water filter (active char-
coal filter) or replacing with a mesh fil-
ter
Air in the system can cause water to
gush out and the filter cartridge to
spring out when it is removed. Take
great care when changing the water
filter.
Depending on the quantity of water
dispensed or ice cubes produced, the
active charcoal filter needs to be
changed approximately every
6months. A notification on the display
will remind you to do so.
If you have not used the refrigeration
appliance, the water dispenser, or the
ice maker much in the last few weeks
or months, or if the ice cubes smell un-
pleasant, replace the charcoal filter
early.
Fold up the cover at the bottom of the
refrigeration appliance.

Risk of electric shock!
The refrigeration appliance must only
be switched on when it has been in-
stalled in accordance with the instal-
lation instructions.
Ground the refrigeration appliance.
The refrigeration appliance must not
be grounded via a gas pipe.
If in doubt, have a suitably qualified
and experienced electrician check
that the installation complies with
relevant regulations.
Do not install a fuse into neutral cur-
rent or grounding electrical circuit.
Do not use an extension cord or
power bar.
Do not use a frayed or damaged
power cord.
Risk of electric shock!
For protection against electric shock,
this refrigeration appliance is
equipped with a pole-free electrical
plug which is protected against re-
verse polarity. The electrical socket
must be properly grounded.
Do not remove the round grounding
connector pin from the electrical
plug.
Use only a grounded plug adapter.
Wait for 1hour after installation before
plugging the refrigeration appliance into
the electricity supply. This allows
coolant and refrigeration oil to settle in
accordance with regulations.
Ensure that the voltage of the power
supply corresponds with the connection
voltage of the refrigeration appliance. A
power supply of 110–120V, 60Hz, and
10–16A, which is protected by a power
switch or a fuse, is required to operate
the refrigeration appliance.
The manufacturer recommends operat-
ing the refrigeration appliance on a sep-
arate circuit to avoid overloading the
electrical circuit.
All relevant legal electrical, fire, and
building regulations must be observed
when installing the socket and/or the re-
frigeration appliance.
In certain countries, refrigeration appli-
ances are required to be connected to
the electrical supply via a wall-mounted
ON/OFF switch.
To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock,
or other injuries, the refrigeration appli-
ance must be installed and connected
by a suitably qualified electrician in ac-
cordance with all relevant local and na-
tional regulations and standards, includ-
ing fire prevention.
The outlet must not be concealed be-
hind the refrigeration appliance and
must be easily accessible so that the
appliance can be quickly disconnected
from the electrical supply in case of an
emergency.
If the outlet is no longer accessible after
installation, an additional means of dis-
connection must be provided for all
poles. Suitable means of disconnection
include switches with an all-pole con-

tact gap of at least 1/8" (3mm). These
can be circuit breakers, fuses, and relay
switches.
The electrical plug and power cord must
not come into contact with the back of
the refrigeration appliance as vibrations
can cause damage to these compo-
nents. This could result in a short circuit.
Do not plug in other appliances behind
the refrigeration appliance.
Do not connect the refrigeration appli-
ance to a stand-alone inverter such as
those used with an autonomous power
supply e.g., solar power.
When the refrigeration appliance is
switched on, power surges could result
in a safety shut-off. This can damage the
electronics. The refrigeration appliance
must not be used with so-called energy
saving devices either. These reduce the
amount of energy supplied to the appli-
ance, causing it to overheat.
If the power cord needs to be replaced,
this must be performed by a qualified
electrician.
Connecting the appliance
Insert the plug into the back of the
appliance.
Make sure that the plug has clicked into
position correctly.

SuperCool&AirClean
When the SuperCool&AirCleanfunc-
tion is switched on, the temperature
in the fridge zone drops to 33°F (1°C).
Select this function for the rapid chilling
of large amounts of fresh food or drink.
If you want to rapidly chill large
amounts of fresh food or drinks, the
SuperCool&AirCleanfunction
must be switched on before placing
food or drinks in the fridge zone.
Tip: You should also activate the Super-
Cool&AirCleanfunction temporarily
if you are storing strong-smelling food in
the fridge zone. When the Super-
Cool&AirCleanfunction is selected,
the charcoal filter works even harder to
further reduce odors in the fridge zone.
38
background
Overview
The SuperCool&AirCleanfunction
will switch itself off automatically after
max. 6hours.
SuperFreeze
When the SuperFreezefunction is
switched on, the temperature in the
freezer zone drops to -15°F (-26°C).
Select this function before freezing fresh
food weighing 4.4lbs (2kg) or more.
Fresh food will be frozen quickly, so that
the nutritional value, vitamin content,
appearance, and taste are maintained.
In addition, the QuickIce function is ac-
tivated in the ice maker and ice-cube
production speeds up.
The SuperFreezefunction must be
turned on around4–6hours before
placing the food in the freezer zone.
The SuperFreezefunction turns off
automatically after a maximum of
8hours. The exact amount of time will
vary according to how much fresh food
is placed in the freezer.
If you place a large amount of food in
the freezer zone and the temperature in
the freezer zone rises, the Automatic
SuperFrost function switches on auto-
matically for a while.
Ideally, place the food in the right-hand
section of the freezer drawer for this
purpose.
QuickIce
When the ice maker is switched on,
you can select the QuickIce function.
When the QuickIce function is switched
on, ice cube production speeds up.
The temperature in the freezer zone
drops to -15°F (-26°C).
The QuickIce function will switch itself
off automatically after max. 48hours.
Vacation mode
The Vacation mode function is useful
when you go on vacation, for example,
if you do not wish to switch off the
fridge zone completely or do not need
a high degree of cooling.
The fridge zone therefore remains in
operation while saving energy.
When the Vacation mode function is
switched on:
- The fridge zone and the Master-
FreshPro drawer are regulated to a
temperature of 57°F (14°C).
- The temperature in the DailyFresh Ex-
traCool drawer increases to approx.
54°F (12°C).
- No settings can be selected in the
MasterFreshPro drawer.
- The SuperCool&AirClean and Su-
perFreezefunctions are switched
off.
- The freezer zone remains switched on
at the previously set temperature.
- The ice maker is switched off tempo-
rarily.
Tip: Food which does not spoil quickly
can be stored in the refrigeration appli-
ance for some time at this moderate
fridge zone temperature.
This also prevents the build-up of odors
and bacteria which can occur if the
fridge zone is switched off and the ap-
pliance door is closed.

Only ever switch on the Eco
modefunction for a limited period.
Do not store any temperature-sensi-
tive food which spoils easily, such as
fruit, vegetables, fish, meat, and dairy
products, during this time.
Health risk caused by decompos-
ing food.
Storing food at a temperature higher
than 0°F (-18°C) in the freezer zone
for an extended period of time may
impair the storage life and quality of
the food.
Only ever switch on the Eco

the freezer zone is already properly
frozen.
Do not freeze any new food while the
Eco modefunction is switched on.
Sabbath mode
The refrigeration appliance has a Sab-
bath mode function to support the ob-
servance of religious customs.
Switching on the Sabbath mode func-
tion temporarily switches off the follow-
ing features:
- interior lighting
- all audible and visual signals
- the cameras: The camera does not
take any photos and no photos are
displayed in the Miele app.

Overview
- reminders (e.g., to change or clean the
water filter): The set time interval is
paused.
- all other functions including Super-
Freeze, SuperCool&AirClean,
the water dispenser, and the ice
maker
When the Sabbath mode function is
switched on, you cannot make any set-
tings on your refrigeration appliance or
via the Miele app. Only Sabbath mode
can be switched off.
Charcoal filter (AirClean Sys-
tem)
The charcoal filters in the AirClean Sys-
tem neutralize unpleasant odors in the
fridge zone and stop odors from being
transferred to the food.
Tip: We recommend selecting the Su-
perCool&AirCleanfunction tempo-
rarily if you are storing strong-smelling
food in the fridge zone. When the Su-
perCool&AirCleanfunction is se-
lected, the charcoal filter works even
harder to further reduce odors in the
fridge zone.
The charcoal filters in the AirClean Sys-
tem can be reactivated in the oven or a
similar domestic appliance with an oven
function in a sustainable way and used
again (a notification reminding you to re-
activate them appears on the display
approximately every 6months).
The charcoal filters can be reactivated
approximately 5times; they must be
replaced with new ones after approxi-
mately 3years. A notification on the
display will remind you to do so.
Used charcoal filters can be disposed
of with household waste.
New charcoal filters are available from
Miele Service, your Miele dealer, or via
the Internet (see “Familiarization,
“Optional accessories”).
Camera (FoodView)
Your refrigeration appliance is supplied
with several cameras in the fridge zone.
Every time you open and close the
fridge zone doors, the cameras take
photos of the inside of the fridge zone
and the door shelves.
Every time you open and close the Mas-
terFreshPro drawer, the camera takes
photos of the content of the Master-
FreshPro drawer.
When the refrigeration appliance is in
use, it is possible that users, people, or
the area around it will be captured by
the cameras and appear in the images
in the Mieleapp. The images are pro-
cessed for the purpose of being made
available in the Mieleapp. Information

Temperature alarm in the
freezer zone
The refrigeration appliance has been
equipped with a temperature alarm so
that the temperature in the freezer
zone cannot rise unnoticed.
If the temperature in the freezer zone
becomes too warm, a message appears
in the display and the highest tempera-
ture that has been reached is shown. An
alarm will also sound until the cause of
the alarm is rectified or the alarm is
switched off.
41
background
Overview
Tip: Before you switch the temperature
alarm off, you must determine the cause
and rectify it.
The set temperature determines when
the appliance recognizes a temperature
as being too warm.
The audible and visual signals may be
activated in the following situations:
- You switch on the refrigeration ap-
pliance and the temperature in the
freezer zone differs greatly from the
set temperature.
- A lot of warm room air enters the
freezer zone when you are rearrang-
ing or taking out frozen food.
- You are freezing large amounts of
food at once.
- You are freezing warm food.
- A power outage has occurred.
- The refrigeration appliance has a
fault.
Health risk caused by decompos-
ing food.
If the temperature in the freezer re-
mains above 0°F (-18°C) for a long
time, the frozen food may start to de-
frost. This will reduce the storage life
of the food.
Check whether the frozen food has
started to defrost. If it has, 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.
Door alarm
The refrigeration appliance is supplied
with a door alarm to avoid increased
energy consumption and food becom-
ing warm if the door is left open.
A door alarm will sound if an appliance
door is left open for too long.
As soon as the appliance door is closed,
the door alarm will stop.
The audible door alarm can also be de-
activated: SettingsGen-
eralSoundsBuzzer tones.

Operation
Temperature in the fridge zone
A refrigerator temperature of 39°F
(4°C) is recommended in the fridge
zone.
A temperature setting of 39°F (4°C)
combined with appropriate hygiene
measures delays the growth of bac-
teria, e.g., salmonella and listeria,
which can lead to serious food poi-
soning.

To freeze fresh food, a temperature of
0°F (-18°C) is required. Please note
that, if the temperature is any
warmer, the food will have a shorter
shelf life.
When freezing food and storing it
over the long term, set a minimum
temperature of 0°F (-18°C).
Tip: By keeping the freezer zone at a
constant temperature of 0°F (-18°C)
and taking appropriate hygiene mea-
sures, you can maximize the storage life
of your food and avoid food waste.
The temperature in the freezer zone can
be set between 6°F(-14°C) and -7°F

Storing food in the fridge zone
Always follow USDA/CFIA guidelines
on food safety.
Risk of fire from electrical appli-
ances.
Operating electrical devices in the
appliance can cause sparks to form.
Do not operate any electrical devices
inside the appliance.
Risk of explosion due to
flammable mixes of gases.
Electrical components can cause
flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Do not store any explosive materials
or products containing flammable
propellants (e.g., spray cans) in the
appliance. The spray cans in question
can be identified by the contents
printed on the can or by a flame sym-
bol. Electrical components can cause
escaping gases to ignite.
Risk of damage due to greasy or
oily foods.
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 plas-
tic.
Make sure that no fat or oil leaks onto
the plastic parts of the refrigeration
appliance.
54
background
Operation
If there is insufficient air circulation,
the cooling performance will de-
crease and energy consumption will
increase.
To allow air to circulate efficiently, do
not pack food too closely together in
the appliance.
Do not cover the ventilation slots in
the fridge zone.
If food is stored too close to the ven-
tilation slots in the rear wall, the food
may freeze.
Store food in such a way that it does
not touch the rear wall of the fridge
zone.
Different storage zones
Due to natural air circulation, there are
different temperature zones in the re-
frigerator 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.
This is a refrigeration appliance with
automatic temperature distribution
(DynaCool). The refrigeration appli-
ance switches the fan on automatically
when the cooling system for the fridge
zone switches on. This means that the
cold is distributed evenly in the fridge
zone and the difference between the
various temperature zones is less pro-
nounced. All stored food is thus cooled
to approximately the same tempera-
ture.
Warmest area
The warmest area in the refrigerator
section is in the top section of the door.
Use this for storing butter so that it re-
mains spreadable and cheese so that it
retains its flavor.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the fridge zone is at
the bottom at the back of the appliance.
However, the temperature in the Mas-
terFresh Pro drawer is even colder.
Use these areas to store all delicate and
highly perishable food, such as:
- fish, meat, poultry
- cold cuts, ready-made meals
- dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream
- fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza
dough, or pie dough
- raw milk cheese and other raw milk
products
- hummus, vegetable spreads, plant-
based cream cheese substitutes
- pre-packed vegetables
- other fresh food (with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
around 39°F (4°C))
Should food be stored loose or in
packaging?
Ensure that food stored in the fridge
zone is in packaging or covered properly
(some exceptions apply in the Master-
Fresh Pro drawer).
This will prevent food odors from affect-
ing other food, stop food from drying
out, and also prevent any cross-contam-
ination of bacteria. This is particularly
important when storing meat products.
55
background
Operation
Make sure that food such as raw meat
and fish in particular does not come into
contact with other food.
By ensuring that the temperature
settings are correct and by taking ap-
propriate hygiene measures, you can
prolong the storage life of your food
considerably. This prevents food
waste.
Storing food in the MasterFresh
Pro drawer
The MasterFresh Pro drawer fulfills the
requirements of a cold storage com-
partment according to
DINEN62552:2020.
The MasterFresh Pro drawer provides
ideal storage conditions for fruit, vegeta-
bles, fish, meat, and dairy products.
Food stays fresh considerably longer
while retaining both flavor and vitamins.
In the MasterFresh Pro drawer, the tem-
perature is controlled automatically and
is in the range of around 32°F (0°C).
While lower than the temperature in a
standard fridge zone, this is the opti-
mum temperature range for storing
fresh food which is not sensitive to cold.
The deterioration process is deceler-
ated at this temperature range so food
can be stored without loss of fresh-
ness for considerably longer than in a
standard fridge and you do not need to
shop as often.
In the MasterFresh Pro drawer, the hu-
midity level is regulated to suit the food
being stored. Food retains its own mois-
ture if stored at a higher humidity and so
does not dry out as quickly.
Selecting the right setting for the Mas-
terFreshPro drawer
Clean the MasterFreshPro drawer
before placing new food in it.
Select the MasterFreshPro drawer on
the display.
Select the food that you wish to load
into the MasterFreshPro drawer.
Alternatively, select the Favorite that
you have saved with your individual
settings (see “Creating a favorite for
the individual setting in the Master-
Fresh Pro drawer”).
Confirm your selection with OK.
The appropriate humidity (, , or )
is set automatically based on the se-
lected food.
Now load your food into the Master-
FreshPro drawer.
Tip: For hygiene reasons, do not store
fruit and vegetables together with meat
and fish.

meals as any microorganisms that may
still be present cannot multiply:
- fresh fish and shellfish
- meat, poultry, and sausage
- deli salads
- dairy products, such as milk, yo-
gurt, cheese, cream, etc.

DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer
The DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer is ideal
for storing food which goes off quickly,
such as:
- fresh fish and shellfish
- meat, poultry, and sausage
- deli salads
- dairy products such as yogurt, cheese,
cream, etc.
- You can also store any other type of
food in the DailyFresh ExtraCool
drawer, as long as it is packaged.
In the DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer, the
temperature is approx. 2°C below the
temperature you have set for the fridge
zone. For example, the DailyFresh Ex-
traCool drawer has a temperature of
approx. 2°C when a temperature of
4°C has been set in the fridge zone.
If the ambient temperature is high
(above 30°C) and the temperature in
the fridge zone is low (below 5°C),
minus temperatures may be reached
in the DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer.
This can cause food to be damaged
or to freeze.
Lower the ambient temperature or in-
crease the temperature in the fridge
zone.

Operation
Please note that foods rich in protein
deteriorate faster than others.
Shellfish, for example, deteriorates
faster than fish, and fish deteriorates
faster than meat.
Always keep these foods covered or
wrapped.
Freezing and storing fresh food
Always follow USDA/CFIA guidelines
on food safety.
Risk of fire from electrical appli-
ances.
Operating electrical devices in the
appliance can cause sparks to form.
Do not operate any electrical devices
inside the appliance.
Before placing food in the freezer

good condition.
When freezing more than 4.4lbs
(2kg) of fresh food, switch on the Su-
perFreeze function for 4–6hours
before placing the food in the freezer.
This helps frozen food which is already
stored in the freezer to stay frozen.
Placing food in the freezer
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause the
frozen food to begin to thaw.
To prevent food sticking together
when frozen, make sure that the pack-
aging and containers are dry.

plumbed water connection in order to
operate.
All materials used in the water dis-
penser are odorless and do not affect
flavor.
Dispensing water from the Water dis-
penser
Risk to health due to contami-
nated water.
Bacteria can develop in water that
has been sitting in the water supply
lines for too long. This poses a risk to
your health.

cube container to fill up.
The ice-cube maker can make up to
approx. 4.9lb (2.2kg) of ice cubes in
24hours.
The amount of ice cubes made by the
appliance depends on the temperature
in the freezer zone. The lower the
temperature, the more ice cubes are
produced in a certain period of time.
Only make normal domestic quantities
of ice cubes with the ice maker.
Ice cube production is halted automati-
cally as soon as the ice cube container
is full.
Turning off the ice maker
The ice maker can be turned off inde-
pendently of the freezer zone if you do
not want to make any ice cubes.
Close the ball valve in the water sup-
ply line (approximately 3hours before
switching off the refrigeration appli-
ance to avoid the build-up of bacteria
caused by stagnant water).
Select IceMaker on the display.
Switch off the settings for the ice
cubes.
Confirm your selection with OK.
Tip: Empty the ice cube container at
regular intervals, or at least if you have
not produced any ice for more than a
week. This will ensure that you always
have fresh ice and the ice cubes will not
form a clump.
Tip: If you do not wish to produce ice
cubes for a longer period, you should
switch off the ice maker completely.

66
background
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the interior of the ap-
pliance
Clean the appliance regularly, or at
least once a month.
If soiling is left on for any length of
time, it may become impossible to
remove under certain circumstances.
Surfaces may become discolored or
damaged.
It is therefore best to remove any
soiling immediately.
Clean the interior with a clean
sponge, lukewarm water, and a little
liquid dish soap.
Treat the stainless steel surfaces in-
side the appliance with a suitable
stainless steel care product.
Always wipe in the direction of the
structure of the stainless steel sur-
face. This will avoid unwanted
scratches.
Use a suitable stainless steel care
product for the stainless steel sur-
faces inside the appliance.
We recommend the Miele ceramic
and stainless steel cleaner.
Rinse all parts by hand. Do not wash
in a dishwasher.
Clean the ice cube container regularly.
Clean the ice cube container before
switching off the ice maker for an ex-
tended period of time.
Regularly remove ice and water
residues from the ice cube container.
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with an all-purpose cloth.
Leave the door open to air the refrig-
eration appliance sufficiently for a
short while and to prevent odor build-
up.
Cleaning the camera
The camera lenses may become misty
due to the increased humidity in the re-
frigeration appliance.
Clean the camera lenses using a mi-
crofiber cloth and a waterproof clean-
ing agent.
Clean the camera housings with a mi-
crofiber cloth.
Reactivating the charcoal filter
(AirClean system) in the oven

ter in the rear panel of the oven com-
partment, remove it temporarily.
See the operating instructions sup-
plied with the oven for information on
how to do this.
Do not pre-heat the oven compart-
ment.
Place the charcoal filters in the re-
tainer on a baking tray in the middle
of the oven compartment.
Switch on the oven or oven function.
Select the operating mode Convec-
tion Bake (recirculation), 400°F
(200°C).
