Technical safety
The refrigerant circuit has been checked for leaks. The wine condi-
tioning unit complies with statutory safety requirements and the ap-
propriate EU directives.
This wine unit contains the refrigerant Isobutane (R600a), a nat-
ural gas which is environmentally friendly. 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 wine unit.
When transporting and installing the wine unit, ensure that no parts
of the cooling circuit are damaged. Splashes of refrigerant can dam-
age the eyes.
In the event of damage:
- Avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the wine unit from the mains electricity supply.
- Ventilate the room where the wine unit is located for several
minutes.
- Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
The more refrigerant there is in a wine unit, the larger the room it
should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a
small room, there is the danger of a combustible gas/air mixture
building up. For every 8g of refrigerant at least 1m
3
of room space is
required. The amount of refrigerant in the wine unit is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
To avoid the risk of damage to the wine conditioning unit, make
sure that the connection data (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) on
the data plate corresponds to the household supply.
Check that this is the case before connecting the wine conditioning
unit. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of the wine conditioning unit can only be guar-
anteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard
safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised with
the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply system
complies with the specifications of EN50160 or an equivalent stand-
ard.
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
synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must
be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described,
for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001–2 ISO
45001.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from
danger.
Do not connect the wine conditioning unit to the mains electrical
supply by a multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire
hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
If moisture gets into electrical components, it could cause a short
circuit. Therefore, do not operate this wine conditioning unit in areas
which are exposed to moisture (e.g in a garage or utility room).
This wine conditioning unit must not be used in a non-stationary
location (e.g. on a ship).
Warning and Safety instructions
10
Do not use a damaged wine conditioning unit. It could be danger-
ous. Check the wine conditioning unit for visible signs of damage.
For safety reasons, this wine conditioning unit may only be used
after it has been built in.
The wine conditioning unit must be isolated from the electricity
supply during installation, maintenance and repair work.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause con-
siderable danger for the user.
Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician.
While the wine conditioning unit is under warranty, repairs should
only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Other-
wise the warranty is invalidated.
Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele ori-
ginal spare parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of
the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.
This wine unit is supplied with a special lamp to cope with particu-
lar conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical resistance, abra-
sion resistance and vibration). This lamp must only be used for the
purpose for which it is intended. The lamp is not suitable for room
lighting. Replacement lamps may only be fitted by a Miele authorised
technician or by the Miele Customer Service Department. This wine
unit contains several light sources with at least energy efficiency
classE.
Correct use
The wine conditioning unit is designed for use within a certain cli-
mate range (ambient temperatures), and should not be used outside
this range. The climate range for your wine conditioning unit is stated
on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a room with too
low an ambient temperature, e.g. a garage, will lead to the wine con-
ditioning unit switching off for longer periods so that it cannot main-
tain the required temperature.
Warning and Safety instructions
11
Do not cover or block the air vents as this could impair the effi-
ciency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and
could cause damage to the components.
If the wine conditioning unit is used for storing food which con-
tains fat or oil, make sure that it does not come into contact with
plastic components. Any spillages of oil or fat could cause stress
cracks to the plastic and cause it to break or split.
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store explosive materials in the
wine conditioning unit or any products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans). Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of
gases to ignite.
Danger of explosion. Do not operate any electrical appliances in-
side the wine conditioning unit. Danger of sparking and explosion.
Accessories and spare parts
Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used, war-
ranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.
Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a min-
imum of 10years and up to 15years following the discontinuation of
your wine unit.
Warning and Safety instructions
12
Cleaning and care
Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals, as these will cause
the seals to deteriorate and become porous with time.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this wine condi-
tioning unit.
The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, caus-
ing irreversible damage to the wine conditioning unit. Do not use
sharp edged or pointed objects to
- remove frost and ice,
- remove labels, stickers etc.
Transporting the appliance
Always transport the wine conditioning unit in an upright position
and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. The wine condition-
ing unit is very heavy and must be transported by two people.
Disposing of your old appliance
Children playing could become trapped in the wine unit and could
suffocate.
- Remove the appliance door.
- Leave the wooden shelves in the wine unit so children cannot
climb inside.
- If your old wine unit has a door lock, destroy it. This will prevent
the risk of children playing accidentally locking themselves in the
appliance and endangering their lives.
Risk of electric shock!
- Cut the plug off the mains connection cable.
- Cut the mains connection cable off the old appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
13
Dispose of everything separately from the old appliance.
During and after disposal, make sure that the wine unit is not
placed near petrol or other flammable gases and liquids.
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 damage the eyes. Be careful not to dam-
age any part of the pipework whilst awaiting disposal, e.g. by
- puncturing the coolant channels in the condenser,
- bending any pipework, or
- scratching the surface coating.
Caring for the environment
14
Disposing of the packaging ma-
terial
The packaging material is used for hand-
ling and protects the appliance from
transport damage. The packaging ma-
terial used is selected from materials
which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material re-
duces the use of raw materials. Use ma-
terial-specific collection points for valu-
able materials and take advantage of re-
turn options. Your Miele dealer will take
the packaging material away.
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 human
health and to the environment if dis-
posed of with household waste or if
handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with household waste.
Take care not to damage your refrigera-
tion appliance before or during disposal
in an authorised, environmentally
friendly manner.
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
points to dispose of and recycle elec-
trical 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
personal data from the old appliance
prior to disposal. You are legally obliged
to remove any old batteries which are
not securely enclosed by the appliance
and to remove any lamps without des-
troying them, where this is possible.
These must be taken to a suitable col-
lection point where they can be handed
in free of charge. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to chil-
dren while being stored for disposal.

The optimum temperature and air quality
27
Wine keeps on maturing depending on
the surrounding conditions. The length
of time for which wine can be kept in
good condition will therefore depend
not only on the temperature but also on
the air quality.
The wine unit with its constant and wine
specific temperature, increased air hu-
midity and odour-free atmosphere of-
fers the perfect conditions for storing
your wine.
The wine unit also guarantees (as op-
posed to a refrigerator) an environment
without vibrations so that the maturing
process of the wine is not disturbed.
The optimum temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature
between 6 and 18°C. If you are storing
white and red wines together, select a
temperature between 12 and 14°C. This
is suitable for both white and red wines.
Red wine should be taken out of the
wine conditioning unit and opened at
least two hours before drinking to allow
it to breathe and develop its aroma.
At too high a temperature (over 22°C)
wine matures too quickly, which pre-
vents the aromas from developing fur-
ther. Wine cannot mature fully at too
low a temperature (below 5°C).
Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.
Type of wine Recommended
drinking temper-
ature*
Light, fruity reds: +14°C to +16°C
Full-bodied
reds:
+18°C
Rosé wines: +8°C to +10°C
Delicate, aromatic
whites:
+8°C to +12°C
Full-bodied or
sweet whites:
+12°C to +14°C
Champagne,
sparkling white
wines, Prosecco:
+6°C to +10°C
* Store the wine 1 or 2°C cooler than
the recommended drinking temperature
as it warms up a little when poured into
the glass.
Tip: Full-bodied reds should be opened
for 2–3hours before drinking to allow
the wine to breathe and develop its
aroma.
Safety device in case of low ambient
temperatures
The appliance is equipped with a safety
thermostat to protect your wine against
a sharp drop in temperature. If the ex-
ternal temperature should fall, a heater
element switches on automatically to
keep the temperature inside as constant
as possible. If the ambient temperature
continues to fall, the appliance switches
itself off automatically.
The optimum temperature and air quality

Isolator plate for thermal separation
The unit comes with a fixed isolation
panel that partitions the interior of the
wine conditioning unit into two separate
temperature zones. This enables you to
store different types of wine at the same
time, e.g., red wine and Champagne.
The isolation strips inside the glass door
prevent the exchange of heat between
the individual zones.
Setting the temperature
The temperatures in the wine condition-
ing zones can be set independently of
one another.
Touch the sensor for the zone for
which you wish to change the tem-
perature, so that it is highlighted in
yellow.
The current temperature for the selec-
ted zone appears in the display.
Use the two sensors underneath the
display to set the temperature.
By touching the sensor
- The temperature decreases
- The temperature increases
Touch the OK sensor to confirm your
selection
or
Wait approximately 5 seconds after
the last touch of a sensor
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
The following information shows in the
display while the sensors are being
touched:
- Touching a sensor once:
The last temperature selected
flashes.
- Each subsequent touch of the sensor:
Adjusts the temperature shown in
1°C increments.
- Leaving a finger on the sensor:
Changes the temperature continu-
ously.
A negative tone will sound (if the
keypad tone is switched on) when the
lowest or highest possible temperat-
ure is reached.
Approximately 5seconds after the last
time a sensor has been touched, the ac-
tual temperature inside the wine condi-
tioning zone is automatically shown.
When the temperature is altered, there
is a short delay until the temperature
selected is set.
The temperature display on the control
panel always shows the actual tem-
perature.
The optimum temperature and air quality
29
Temperature range
In both zones it is possible to set tem-
peratures between 5 and 20°C.
Temperature display
In normal operation the temperature
display shows the actual temperature in
the zone.
If the temperature in one of the zones is
not within the range that the appliance
is able to display, dashes will light up in
the temperature display.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
temperature required and for this tem-
perature to then be shown as a constant
temperature in the display.
Air quality and humidity
In most refrigerators the humidity is too
low for wine and therefore a refrigerator
is not suitable for wine storage. High hu-
midity levels are necessary when storing
wine to moisten corks from the outside.
When the humidity is too low the corks
dry out and the bottle is no longer
tightly sealed. For this reason wine
bottles should always be stored hori-
zontally to ensure that corks are also
kept moist from the inside. If air gets
into the bottle, this will have a negative
impact on the wine!
Danger of damage from excess
amounts of moisture
An increase in humidity will lead to
condensation on the interior walls.
Condensate can cause damage such
as corrosion to the wine unit.
Do not introduce additional moisture
to air in the cabinet, e.g. by placing a
dish of water in the wine unit.
The optimum temperature and air quality
30
Using DynaCool (constant humid-
ity)
DynaCool raises the relative humidity
inside the whole of the wine condition-
ing unit. It also distributes the humidity
and the temperature evenly around the
interior so that you can store all your
wine under the same excellent condi-
tions.
This will create a stable climate in the
unit which imitates that of a wine cel-
lar.
Switching on DynaCool
If you would like to use the wine condi-
tioning unit to store wine over the long
term, we recommend that you keep the
DynaCool function switched on.
Touch the sensor to switch the
DynaCool function on/off. The sensor
will be highlighted in yellow.
Even if DynaCool has not been
switched on, the fans in the wine con-
ditioning unit will come on automatic-
ally as soon as the cooling system
switches on. This ensures the op-
timum climate for your wine is main-
tained.
The fans automatically switch off when
the door is open.
Switching off DynaCool
The wine conditioning unit uses
slightly more energy and is a little nois-
ier when the DynaCool function is
switched on. You can switch it off now
and then if you wish.
Touch the sensor for switching the
DynaCool function on and off so that
it is no longer highlighted in yellow.
Air filtration with the Active AirClean
filters
The Active AirClean filter achieves op-
timum air quality by filtering the incom-
ing air.
Fresh air from the room enters the wine
unit via the Active AirClean filter.
The fans (DynaCool function) then dis-
tribute the air evenly throughout the
cabinet.
Filtering the incoming air through the
Active AirClean filter ensures that all the
air entering the wine unit is fresh and
free from dust and odours.
This also ensures your wine does not
absorb any unwanted odours through
the corks.
Temperature and door alarm
31
This wine conditioning unit is equipped
with an alarm system so that the tem-
perature cannot rise or fall unnoticed,
thus possibly damaging the wine.
Temperature alarm
If the temperature in one of the wine
conditioning zones rises or falls by a
certain amount, the sensor for that zone
will flash in the control panel and at the
same time the alarm symbol will
flash in the display. An audible alarm will
also sound.
Audible and visual signals will be activ-
ated, for example,
- when the wine unit is switched on
and the temperature in one of the
temperature zones differs greatly
from the set temperature,
- when too much warm ambient air
enters the cabinet when bottles are
being rearranged or taken out,
- when a large number of bottles are
stored for the first time,
- in the event of a power cut,
- if there is a fault with the wine unit.
The alarm will stop and the alarm sym-
bolgoes out as soon as the reason
for the alarm has been resolved. The
sensor for the relevant zone will light up
constantly again.

If the lighting cover is defective, do
not look from a close range directly
into the lighting with optical instru-
ments (e.g. magnifying glass or sim-
ilar).
Storing wine bottles
35
Vibration and movement have a negat-
ive effect on the maturing process,
which can in turn affect the taste of the
wine.
To avoid disturbing other bottles when
removing a bottle of wine, store bottles
of the same type beside each other on
the same wooden shelf. Avoid stacking
bottles on top of one another on the
wooden shelves.
Always place the bottles in a horizontal
position so that the natural corks can be
kept moist on the inside and air is pre-
vented from getting into the bottles.
Tip: We also recommend increasing the
humidity level inside the wine condition-
ing unit for wine bottles with natural
corks (see “The optimum temperature
and air quality – Using DynaCool (con-
stant humidity)”).
Risk of injury from falling wine
bottles.
Wine bottles may become wedged in
the wooden shelves above and fall
out of the wine unit when the shelves
are pulled out.
Always pull out the wooden shelves
slowly and carefully.
Risk of damage and injury from
broken glass.
If wooden shelves and bottles pro-
trude too far forwards, they may
damage the glass door when it is
closed.
Please ensure that the wooden
shelves and wine bottles do not pro-
trude.
Do not cover the vents in the rear
wall, as they are essential for keeping
the appliance cool.

General problems with the wine conditioning unit
Problem Cause and remedy
There is no audible alarm
although the door has
been open for a long
time.
This is not a fault. The alarm tone has been switched
off in settings mode (see “Selecting further settings
– Audible signals”).
The wine conditioning
unit cannot be switched
off.
The safety lock has been activated.
Completely deactivate the safety lock (see “Select-
ing further settings – Activating and deactivating
the safety lock”).
The slats on the wooden
shelves are warping.
Volume change due to moisture absorption or drying
out is a typical characteristic of wood. An increase in
humidity will cause wooden components to warp,
which can lead to cracking. Knots and grain patina are
part of the natural character of wood.
Mildew has begun to
form on the wine bottle
labels.
Mildew can begin to form on the labels, depending on
the type of label adhesive used.
Clean the wine bottles and remove any adhesive
residue.
A white deposit has
formed on the wine
bottle corks.
The corks have oxidised due to contact with the air.
Use a dry cloth to wipe off the deposit. The deposit
will not affect the quality of the wine.

stalled near to a heater, a cooker or an-
other appliance that gives off heat. Dir-
ect sunlight should also be avoided.
The higher the room temperature, the
longer the compressor runs and the
higher the energy consumption is.
When installing the wine conditioning
unit, 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 back of the wine conditioning unit
as they could be damaged by vibra-
tions from the appliance.
- Do not plug in other appliances be-
hind the wine conditioning unit.

N +16°C to +32°C
ST +16°C to +38°C
T +16°C to +43°C
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to switch off
for too long, causing the internal tem-
perature in the wine conditioning unit to
rise which could lead to damage.
Risk of damage due to high hu-
midity.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on the ex-
ternal wine unit panels, which can
cause corrosion.
Install the wine unit with sufficient
ventilation in a dry and/or air-condi-
tioned room.
After installation, make sure that the
appliance door closes properly, the
ventilation gaps are not covered and
that the wine unit has been installed
in accordance with these operating

Electrical connection
The wine unit is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug ready for con-
nection to an earthed socket.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the wine unit has been installed. If
the socket is not easily accessible, en-
sure that a suitable means of discon-
nection 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 VDE0100 requirements.
For safety reasons, we recommend us-
ing a type residual current device
(RCD) in the assigned electrical installa-
tion for connecting the wine unit.
If the mains connection cable is dam-
aged, it must only be replaced with a
specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from the Miele
Customer Service Department). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a qualified spe-
cialist or the Miele Customer Service
Department.
These operating instructions and the
data plate indicate the nominal power
consumption and the appropriate fuse
rating. Compare this information with
the data of the on-site electrical con-
nection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-
trician.
Temporary or permanent operation on
an autonomous power supply system or
a power supply system that is not syn-
chronised with the mains power supply
(e.g. island networks, back-up systems)
is possible. A prerequisite for operation
is that the power supply system com-
plies with the specifications of
EN50160 or an equivalent standard.
The function and operation of the pro-
tective measures provided in the do-
mestic electrical installation and in this
Miele product must also be maintained
in isolated operation or in operation that
is not synchronised with the mains
power supply, or these measures must
be replaced by equivalent measures in
the installation. As described, for ex-
ample, in the current version of VDE-
AR-E2510-2.
