6
Warnings and safety notes
The refrigerant inside the appliance (details on the data plate) is en-
vironmentally 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 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 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 8g of refrigerant at least 1m
3
of
room space is required. The amount of refrigerant in the refrigeration
appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
If the ventilation cross-sections are covered or blocked, a com-
bustible gas/air mixture can form if the cooling circuit is damaged. It
is essential to observe the required ventilation cross-sections. The
ventilation cross-sections must not be covered or blocked in any way.
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 requirement
is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by
a qualified electrician.

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.
Refrigeration appliance components which are made of metal or
look like metal can contain aluminium. If acidic food comes into con-
tact with aluminium, aluminium ions can be released into the food.
Do not store food loose in the refrigeration appliance.
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

Warnings and safety notes
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.
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.
Do not sit, stand or lean on the shelves or drawers when they are
pulled out. This could damage the refrigeration appliance.
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 refrigeration appliance.
Cleaning and care
Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals, as these will cause
the seals to deteriorate and become porous with time.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean or defrost this ap-
pliance.
Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.
WARNING! DANGER of injury and damage! Do not use any
mechanical or other types of aids which are not recommended by the
manufacturer to accelerate the defrosting process.
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

ance is not placed near petrol or other flammable gases and liquids.
12
Warnings and safety notes
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.
Symbol on the compressor (depending on model)
This information is only relevant for recycling. There is no risk during normal opera-
tion.
The oil in the compressor can be fatal if swallowed or if it penet-
rates the airways.

Sustainability and environmental protection
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.

dust.
Temperature
setting
The colder the temperature, the higher the energy consumption.
The following settings are recommended:
- 4 to 5°C in the refrigerator section.
- -18°C in the freezer section.
- To save energy, switch off the SuperFreeze function yourself
as soon as the food is sufficiently chilled.
Use Energy consumption is increased by heat input and impeded air
circulation. Therefore, you should:
- Only open the appliance door(s) when necessary and for as
short a time as possible. Arrange the food in such a way that
makes it easy to find in the appliance.
- Always close the appliance door(s) properly after opening
them.
- Allow hot food and drinks to cool down before placing them in
the refrigeration appliance.
- Store food well packaged or covered.
- Do not overfill the compartments to allow air to circulate.
- Place frozen food in the fridge zone to defrost.

be installed underneath a hob.
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 fire and damage due to
improper installation.
If mains plugs and mains connection
cables touch the back of the refriger-
ation appliance, they may be dam-
aged by vibrations and cause a short
circuit.
Mains plugs or mains connection
cables must not touch the refrigera-
tion appliance.
Mains connection cables 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 multi-socket
adapters, distributor strips or other
electronic devices (such as halogen
transformers) 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 ex-
ternal 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. It
is essential to comply with the spe-
cified ventilation cross-sections.
When deciding on the installation site,
please bear in mind that your refrigera-
tion appliance will consume more en-
ergy if installed near to a heater, a
cooker or another appliance that gives
off heat. Avoid direct sunlight. Higher
ambient temperatures increase energy
consumption as the compressor runs
for longer.
17
Installation
If installation near a heat source is un-
avoidable, observe the following min-
imum safety distances between the ap-
pliance and the heat source:
- At least 3cm
to electric or gas stoves
- At least 30cm
to oil or coal-based stoves
If it is not possible to observe these
minimum safety distances, an isolation
plate must be installed between the re-
frigeration appliance and the heat
source.
Climate range
This refrigeration appliance is designed
for use within specific ambient temper-
atures (climate range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is not
designed.
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.
The climate range is stated on the data
plate in the interior cabinet of the refri-
geration appliance.
Climate range Ambient temper-
ature
SN 10to32°C
N 16to32°C
ST 16to38°C
T 16to43°C
SN-ST 10to38°C
SN-T 10to43°C
A refrigeration appliance from the SN
climate range can operate without any
difficulties in rooms with a cooler am-
bient temperature (down to +5°C).
Side-by-side combinations
Risk of damage due to condensa-
tion on external appliance panels.
In environments with high humidity
and a lack of ventilation, condensa-
tion can build up on external appli-
ance panels, which can cause corro-
sion.
Do not place refrigeration appliances
directly next to or on top of one an-
other if the refrigeration appliance is
not approved for this.
If you want to place refrigeration ap-
pliances without integrated heating
units next to each other, a distance of
at least 150mm must be maintained
between them.
18
Installation
Ventilation
Fire risk and risk of damage due
to inadequate ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
ventilated sufficiently, the com-
pressor will run more frequently and
for longer periods. This causes in-
creased energy consumption and an
increased 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 cross-sections.
The ventilation cross-sections must
not be covered or blocked in any way.
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
(see “Installation dimensions” and the
installation instructions).
Changing the door hinging
Danger of injury and damage to
the appliance due to heavy door.
There is an increased risk of injury
and damage if the door hinging is in-
stalled by a single person.
Always change the door hinging with
the help of a second person.
Risk of crushing on the door
hinge.
Fingers can get trapped in or around
the hinge.
Leave the door hinge open and do
not close it.
Do not reach into the door hinge dur-
ing conversion.
Change the door hinge in accordance
with the installation instructions.
Furniture door (valid for
KFN7934D)
Horizontal and vertical gaps
Depending on the style of kitchen fur-
niture, the thickness and edge radius of
the furniture door and the gap that runs
around the door, vertically and horizont-
ally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following:
- Horizontal gap
The gap between the furniture door and
the housing unit door above or below it
must be at least 3mm.
- Vertical gap
If the gap between the refrigeration
appliance furniture door and the ad-
joining kitchen furniture front or wall
on the hinged side is too small, the
appliance door could collide with the
adjoining kitchen furniture front or
wall when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the size
of this gap to suit the thickness and
edge radius of the furniture door.
19
Installation
This must be taken into consideration
when planning your kitchen and when
replacing an old refrigeration appliance
with a new one to ensure the installa-
tion conditions required are met.

Electrical connection
The refrigeration appliance must only be
connected to an earthed socket using
the mains connection cable supplied.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the refrigeration appliance has
been installed. If the socket is not easily
accessible, ensure that a suitable
means of disconnection is provided on
the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the refrigeration appli-
ance to a multi-socket plug adapter
or to an extension lead can overload
the cable.
For safety reasons, do not use an ex-
tension lead or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical 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 refrigeration ap-
pliance.
If the mains connection cable is dam-
aged, it must only be replaced with a
specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from the Miele
Customer Service Department). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a qualified spe-
cialist or the Miele Customer Service
Department.
These operating instructions and the
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 quali-
fied electrician.
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.
Connecting the refrigeration appliance
Insert the plug connector into the
socket at the back of the refrigeration
appliance.
Make sure that the plug connector has
clicked into position correctly.
Insert the plug of the refrigeration ap-
pliance into the socket.
The refrigeration appliance is now con-
nected to the electricity supply.

Safety
Temperature alarm in the freezer zone
The refrigeration appliance has been
fitted with a temperature alarm so that
the temperature in the freezer zone
cannot rise unnoticed.
If the temperature becomes too warm,
the temperature display for the freezer
zone flashes and the LED below the
button lights up.
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 may be
triggered in the following situations:
- You switch on the refrigeration ap-
pliance and the temperature differs
greatly from the set temperature.
- Too much warm ambient air enters
the freezer when you are rearran-
ging or taking out frozen food.
- You are freezing large amounts of
food at once.
- You are freezing warm food.
Switching the temperature alarm off
early
Before you switch the temperature
alarm off, you must determine the
cause and rectify it.
If you are bothered by the sound of the
alarm, you can switch the alarm off
early.
Press the button.
Check whether the food in the freezer
has started to thaw or has defrosted.
If it has, it should be used as soon as
possible. Defrosted food may only be
re-frozen after it has been cooked.
Door alarm
The refrigeration appliance is fitted
with a door alarm to avoid increased
energy consumption and food becom-
ing warm if the door is left open.
Depending on which of the two appli-
ance doors is open for longer than
2minutes, the temperature display for
the freezer zone or the fridge zone
flashes. The LED below the button
flashes.
An alarm also sounds.
You can change the time before the
door alarm is triggered via the Miele
app.
As soon as the appliance door is closed,
the alarm will stop and the LED below
the button will go out.
Switching the door alarm off early
If you are bothered by the sound of the
alarm, you can switch the alarm off
early.
Press the button.
The alarm will stop. The LED below the
button goes out as soon as the appli-
ance door is closed.
If the appliance door is not closed, the
alarm will sound again after 2minutes.

36
Operation
Setting the temperature in the
fridge zone
Tip: We recommend a temperature of
4°C in the fridge zone.
A temperature setting of 4°C com-
bined with appropriate hygiene
measures delays the propagation of
bacteria, e.g. salmonella and listeria,
which can lead to serious food pois-
oning.
As a general rule, the colder the set
temperature, the longer the food you
store in the fridge zone will keep.
Touch the desired temperature for the
fridge zone.
Temperature range in the fridge zone
The temperature in the fridge zone can
be adjusted from 2 to 6°C.
You can use the Miele app to make
further settings for the temperature in
the fridge zone.
Temperature display
The temperature display on the control
panel always shows the desired tem-
perature.
Depending on the ambient temperature
and the temperature setting, it can take
the appliance a few hours to reach the
desired temperature.
The temperature in the fridge zone in-
creases:
- 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 being
put into it
- The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance This refrigeration appliance is de-
signed for use within specific ambient
temperatures (climate range). Do not
use in ambient temperatures for
which it is not designed.

Health risk caused by decompos-
ing food.
To freeze fresh food, a temperature of
-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 -18°C and tak-
ing appropriate hygiene measures you
can maximise the storage life of your
food and avoid food waste.

Storing food in the fridge zone
Risk of explosion due to flam-
mable mixes of gases.
Electrical components can cause
flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Do not store explosive materials in
the refrigeration appliance or any
products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans). The spray cans in ques-
tion 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
plastic.
Make sure that no fat or oil leaks onto
the plastic parts of the refrigeration
appliance.
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 store the food too close together
or in direct contact with the rear
panel.
39
Operation
Different storage zones
Due to natural air circulation, there are
different temperature regions 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.
Warmest area
The warmest area in the refrigerator
section is at the top in the front area
and in the door. Use this for storing but-
ter and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the fridge zone is in
the DailyFreshExtraCool drawer and at
the back of the appliance.
A temperature setting of 4°C com-
bined with appropriate hygiene
measures delays the propagation of
bacteria, e.g. salmonella and listeria,
which can lead to serious food pois-
oning.
Therefore, you should use these areas to
store all delicate and highly perishable
food, including:
- Fish, meat, poultry
- Cold cuts, ready meals
- Dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream
- Fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough
- Raw milk cheese and other raw milk
products
- 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 ap-
prox. 4°C)
Tip: Store food in such a way that it
does not touch the rear panel of the
fridge zone. Otherwise it could freeze to
the rear panel.
Temperature indicator for the coldest
area
The temperature indicator for the cold-
est area is located on the left-hand or
right-hand inside wall in the coldest area
of the fridge zone. You can use the tem-
perature indicator to check the temper-
ature in this area for your delicate and
highly perishable food. If the temperat-
ure settings are correct, the lowest aver-
age temperature will be in the coldest
area (between the temperature indicator
and the shelf below). This low temperat-
ure, combined with appropriate hygiene
measures, delays the propagation of
bacteria, e.g. salmonella and listeria,
which can lead to serious food poison-
ing.
After initial commissioning of the refri-
geration appliance, it may take up to
12hours before the desired temperat-
ure is reached.
The temperature indicator will not
display an accurate reading if the ap-
pliance door is opened frequently or
for long periods. Do not keep the ap-
pliance door open for long periods.
Check the temperature indicator
again after a few hours.
40
Operation
Temperature indicator display
If the temperature indicator displays
“OK”, the temperature is set correctly.
Your delicate and highly perishable food
will be refrigerated properly in this area.
If the temperature indicator does not
display “OK”, the temperature is too
high. Lower the temperature.
If the ambient temperature fluctuates
significantly, check the temperature
indicator more frequently. If neces-
sary, adjust the temperature again.
Tip: If the temperature indicator does
not display “OK” even when the tem-
perature is set as low as possible and
this has been repeatedly checked, con-
tact the Customer Service Department.
The temperature indicator is damaged
and correct storage of your delicate and
highly perishable food cannot be en-
sured.
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
DailyFresh drawer).
This will prevent food odours from af-
fecting other food, stop food from drying
out and also prevent any cross-contam-
ination of germs. This is particularly im-
portant when storing meat products.
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.
Protein-rich food
Please note that food rich in protein de-
teriorates faster than other types of
food. Shellfish, for example, deteriorates
faster than fish, and fish deteriorates
faster than meat.
41
Operation
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.
The DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer has a
temperature of approx.0°C when a
temperature of 2°C has been set in
the fridge zone.
The humidity in the DailyFresh Ex-
traCool drawer is not increased and
cannot be regulated.
The temperature in the DailyFresh
ExtraCool drawer is approx. 0°C (de-
pending on the temperature set in
the fridge zone).
This means that sub-zero temperat-
ures can be reached under certain
circumstances. This can cause food
to freeze.
Adjust the temperature setting if ne-
cessary.
Please note that food rich in protein
deteriorates faster than other types
of food.
Shellfish, for example, deteriorates
faster than fish, and fish deteriorates
faster than meat.
For hygiene reasons, always keep
these foods covered or wrapped.
The DailyFresh drawer provides good
storage conditions for fruit and veget-
ables.
The humidity level in the DailyFresh
drawer can also be regulated to suit the
food being stored. Food retains its own
moisture if stored at a higher humidity
and so does not dry out as quickly. The
temperature is approximately equivalent
to the temperature in the fridge zone.
Remember that the fresher the food
when placed in the appliance, the
longer it will stay fresh.
Changing the humidity level in the
DailyFresh drawer
The humidity level in the DailyFresh
drawer largely depends on the type
and quantity of food being stored, if
stored unwrapped.
Tip: If the quantity of food being stored
in this compartment is small, the hu-
midity level may be too low. If you are
only storing a small amount of food,
wrap it in airtight packaging.
Tip: Store cut fruit or vegetables
covered or wrapped so they do not dry
out.
42
Operation
Selecting low humidity
Slide the controller to the right.
The compartment lid is open and the
humidity drops .
Always select this setting if:
- A large amount of food is being stored
in the drawer
- Different types of food are being
stored in the drawer
- Most of the food being stored in the
drawer is fruit
- The humidity level in the DailyFresh
drawer is too high.
Selecting increased humidity
Slide the controller to the left.
The compartment lid is closed and the
humidity remains in the compart-
ment.
Select this setting if:
- A small amount of food is being stored
in the drawer
- Most of the food being stored in the
drawer is vegetables
- The humidity level in the DailyFresh
drawer is too low.
Increased moisture in the DailyFresh
drawer can, in some circumstances,
cause a build-up of condensate.
If you find that too much condensate
has formed and this is affecting the
food, proceed as follows:
Wipe off any condensate with a

Freezing and storing fresh food
Maximum freezing capacity
To ensure that fresh food placed in the
freezer freezes through to the core as
quickly as possible, the maximum freez-
ing capacity must not be exceeded. The
maximum freezing capacity for freezing
within a 24-hour period is given on the
data plate: “Freezing capacity...kg/
24hrs”.
Before placing food in the freezer
Only freeze fresh food which is in good
condition.
When freezing more than 2kg of fresh
food, switch on the SuperFreeze func-
tion for 6hours before placing the
food in the freezer.
When freezing even larger amounts of
food, switch on the SuperFreeze func-
tion for 24hours before placing the
food in the freezer.
This helps the frozen food which is
already stored in the freezer to stay
frozen.
43
Operation
Placing food in the freezer
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause the
frozen food to begin to thaw.
Always place the food in the bottom
freezer drawer first.
To prevent food sticking together
when frozen, make sure that the pack-
aging and containers are dry.
Always push in the freezer drawer as
far as it will go to allow the air to cir-
culate freely in the refrigeration appli-
ance.
To ensure that food freezes through to
the core quickly, do not exceed the fol-
lowing packaging and container sizes:
- Fruit and vegetables: max. 1kg
- Meat: max. 2.5kg
–Freezing large items of food
Tip: You can expand the space available
in the freezer zone, e.g. to freeze large
items such as a turkey or large piece of
game.
Remove the freezer drawers from the
freezer zone.
Place the food directly on the bottom
of the freezer zone.
After freezing fresh food
Switch the SuperFreeze function
off.
Making ice cubes
Fill the ice cube tray 3/4 full with wa-
ter and place it on the bottom of one
of the freezer drawers.
Once frozen, use a blunt instrument,
for example a spoon handle, to re-
move the ice tray from the freezer if it
is stuck.
Tip: Ice cubes can be removed easily
from the tray by twisting the tray gently
or by holding it under cold running water
for a short time.
Cooling drinks quickly
When cooling drinks quickly in the
freezer zone, make sure bottles are
not left in for more than 1hour. Oth-
erwise they could burst.
44
Adjusting settings
Tip: You can use the Miele app to
make additional settings on your refri-
geration appliance. You can find more
information on this in the Miele app.
To do this, your refrigeration appliance
must be networked and registered in
the Miele app.
Observe the “Warning and safety
notes” in these operating and install-
ation instructions and ensure that the
safety notes are also observed when
operating the refrigeration appliance
with the Miele app.
Switching Sabbath mode on
When Sabbath mode is switched on,
you cannot make any settings on your
refrigeration appliance.
Press the SuperFreeze button for
15seconds until a second buzzer
sounds (the first buzzer sounds after
5seconds).
The LED below the SuperFreeze but-
ton lights up with reduced brightness.
All other LEDs in the control panel go
out. Sabbath mode is switched on.
Ensure that the appliance doors are
properly closed, as visual and audible
alarms are switched off.
Health risk caused by decompos-
ing food.
As power cuts are not indicated while
Sabbath mode is active, food may be
exposed to increased temperatures
for a certain period of time. This will
reduce the storage life of the food.
If there is a power cut during Sabbath
mode, check the quality of the food.
Switching Sabbath mode off
The Sabbath mode function will switch
off automatically after approx.
80hours.
However, you can switch the Sabbath
mode function off early.
Press the SuperFreeze button for
15seconds until a buzzer sounds.
The LEDs for the preset temperatures
light up.
Sabbath mode is switched off.
The appliance connects to the WiFi if it
was previously connected to the WiFi.

Adjusting settings
Miele@home
Your refrigeration appliance is
equipped with an integrated WiFi
module.
Networking is deactivated at the fact-
ory.
To use this feature, you will need:
- A WiFi network
- The Mieleapp
- A Miele user account. You can cre-
ate a user account via the
Mieleapp.
The Mieleapp will guide you as you
connect your refrigeration appliance to
your home WiFi network.
Once the refrigeration appliance is con-
nected to your WiFi network, you can
use the Miele app to carry out the fol-
lowing activities, for example:
- Call up information on the operating
status of your refrigeration appliance
- Change the settings on your refrigera-
tion appliance
- Make additional settings on your refri-
geration appliance
Connecting your refrigeration appliance
to your WiFi network will increase en-
ergy consumption, even when the appli-
ance is switched off.
Make sure that the signal of your
WiFi network is sufficiently strong in
the place where you want to set up
your refrigeration appliance.
Availability of the WiFi connection
The WiFi connection shares a frequency
range with other appliances (including
microwave ovens and remote control
toys). This can give rise to sporadic or
even complete connection failures.
Therefore, the availability of featured
functions cannot be guaranteed.

frigeration appliance must be food
safe.
To avoid damaging the surfaces of the
appliance, do not use the following:
- Cleaning agents containing soda, am-
monia, acids or chlorides
- Cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
- Abrasive cleaning agents (e.g. scour-
ing powder, scouring liquid or pumice
stones)
- Cleaning agents containing solvents
- Stainless steel cleaners
- Dishwasher cleaner
- Oven sprays
- Glass cleaning agents
- Hard, abrasive sponges and brushes
(e.g. pot scourers)

ing-up liquid to clean the surfaces of the
appliance.
Preparing the refrigeration ap-
pliance for cleaning
Switch the refrigeration appliance off.
Take any food out of the refrigeration
appliance and store it in a cool place.
Take out any removable parts for
cleaning.
48
Cleaning and care
Cleaning the interior of the ap-
pliance
The refrigeration appliance should be
cleaned regularly (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 suffer discolouration or
damage.
It is therefore best to remove any
soiling immediately.
Clean the interior with a clean sponge
cloth, lukewarm water and a little
washing-up liquid.
Wash all parts by hand. Do not wash
in a dishwasher.
After cleaning, wipe with clean water
and dry with a cloth.
Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently using a cotton
swab or similar item to ensure that
condensate can drain away freely.
To be able to clean the condensate
channel and the condensate drain
hole, the DailyFresh ExtraCool drawer
and the compartment lid underneath
must first be removed.
Leave the door open to air the refri-
geration appliance sufficiently for a
short while and to prevent odour
build-up.
