6
background
Warning and Safety instructions
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 8g of refrigerant at least 1m
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.

Correct use
This refrigeration appliance is designed for use within specific am-
bient temperatures (climate range). Do not use in ambient temperat-
ures for which it is not designed. The climate range is stated on the
data plate in the interior cabinet of the refrigeration appliance. A
lower ambient temperature will cause the compressor to switch off
for longer periods, meaning that the refrigeration appliance is unable
to maintain the required temperature.
The ventilation cross-sections must not be covered or blocked in
any way. This can impair the proper ventilation of the appliance, in-
crease the energy consumption and cause damage to the compon-
ents.
Risk of damage due to greasy or oily foods. If the refrigeration ap-
pliance or the appliance door is used for storing food which contains
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 due to flammable mixes of gases. Do not
store explosive materials in the refrigeration appliance or any
products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Electrical compon-
ents can cause flammable mixes of gases to ignite. The spray cans in
question can be identified by the contents printed on the can or by a
flame symbol. Electrical components can cause escaping gases to ig-
nite.
10
background
Warning and Safety instructions
Danger of explosion. Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g.
an electric ice-cream maker) inside the refrigeration appliance. This
can cause sparking and explosion.
Observe the manufacturer's “use-by” dates and storage instruc-
tions given on food to avoid the risk of food poisoning. Storage times
will depend on several factors, including the freshness and quality of
the food, as well as the temperature at which it is stored.
Accessories and spare parts
Miele assumes no liability for the use of accessories that are not
genuine Miele accessories. Miele is not liable for warranty, guarantee
and/or product liability claims if damage or defects are due to the use
or installation of accessories that do not originate from Miele or have
not been approved by Miele.
Miele original spare parts are kept in stock for at least 10years and
up to 15years after 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.
Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, caus-
ing irreversible damage to the appliance. Do not use sharp edged or
pointed objects to
- remove frost and ice,
- separate frozen food or remove ice trays.
Do not place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays or de-icers. Defrosting sprays and
de-icers can contain substances which could damage the plastic
parts or which might cause a build-up of explosive gases and pose a
danger to health.
Transport

upright and in its packaging.
11
background
Warning and Safety instructions
Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. The refrigeration ap-
pliance is very heavy and must be transported by two people.
Disposal of your old appliance
Children playing could become trapped in the refrigeration appli-
ance and could suffocate.
- Remove the appliance door(s).
- Remove the drawers.
- Leave the shelves in the refrigeration appliance so that children
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 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.
Dispose of the plug and mains connection cable separately from the
old appliance.
During and after disposal, make sure that the refrigeration appli-
ance 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 can ignite if they
come into contact with an external heat source.
During disposal, make sure that the cooling circuit is not damaged.
This prevents refrigerant and oil escaping in an uncontrolled manner
(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.

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.
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.

How to save energy...
How to save energy:
Installation site The refrigeration appliance has to cool more often at higher am-
bient temperatures and consumes more energy in the process.
Therefore, you should:
- Install the refrigeration appliance in a well-ventilated room.
- Do not install the refrigeration appliance near to a heat source
(heater element, cooker).
- Protect the refrigeration appliance from direct sunlight.
- Ensure an ideal ambient temperature of 20°C.
- Clean the ventilation gaps on a regular basis to remove any
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.
- PerfectFresh Active zone just above 0°C.
Use Energy consumption is increased by heat input and impeded air
circulation. Therefore:
- Only open the appliance door/appliance doors 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/appliance doors properly after
opening.
- 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.
- Keep drawers and shelves arranged as they were when the ap-
pliance was delivered.

catch fire and set fire to the refrigera-
tion appliance.
The mains connection cable must not
come into contact with heat sources.
This refrigeration appliance must not
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.
16
background
Installation
Risk of fire and damage due to
improper installation.
If the mains plug and mains connec-
tion cables touch the back of the re-
frigeration appliance, they may be
damaged 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/appliance
doors closes/close properly and the
refrigeration appliance is installed in
accordance with these installation in-
structions. It is essential to comply
with the specified 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
Climate range
This refrigeration appliance is designed
for use within specific ambient temper-
atures (climate range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is not
designed. The climate range is stated on
the data plate in the interior cabinet of
the refrigeration appliance.
Climate range Ambient temper-
ature
SN 10to32°C
N 16to32°C
ST 16to38°C
T 16to43°C
SN-ST 10to38°C
SN-T 10to43°C
A lower ambient temperature leads to
the compressor switching off for longer
periods. This can cause the internal
temperature in the refrigeration appli-
ance to rise with the risk of food deteri-
orating and going off.
Side-by-side installation
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.
Your refrigeration appliance can possibly
be installed alongside another refrigera-
tion appliance with an integrated heat-
ing unit if each appliance is built into a
separate niche.
Tip: Please contact your dealer for spe-
cific information about which combina-
tions will work with your refrigeration
appliance.
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).

Connecting to the power supply
Risk of damage due to automat-
ically opening door. Damage to the
drive unit of the appliance door.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
yet fully installed in the kitchen unit,
but you have already connected it to
the power supply, the door may open
unexpectedly. If the appliance door is
too close to the niche floor, the door
may drag on the floor and damage
parts of the drive unit.
Do not insert the mains plug into the
socket until the refrigeration appli-
ance has been installed correctly.
- The socket must be easily accessible
in an emergency, not concealed be-
hind the appliance.
- The mains plug and mains connection
cable must not touch the rear of the
refrigeration appliance as they could
be damaged by vibrations from the
appliance.
- Other appliances must also not be
plugged into a socket located directly
behind the refrigeration appliance.
- When installing the refrigeration appli-
ance, make sure that the mains con-
nection cable does not get trapped or
damaged.
- Do not position or operate multi-
socket adapters, distributor strips or
other electronic devices (e.g. halogen
transformers) at the rear of the appli-
ance.
Aligning the refrigeration appli-
ance
The refrigeration appliance must be
aligned exactly vertically in the niche.
This is the only way to ensure that the
appliance doors automatic opening mo-
tion is smooth.
It is not possible to change the door
hinging as the refrigeration appliance

Mounting accessories supplied
Install the refrigeration appliance in
accordance with the installation in-
structions.
Knock sensor
19
background
Installation
- When installing the knock sensor, en-
sure that the connecting cable is not
damaged.
- Gluing the knock sensor to the fur-
niture front optimises the transmis-
sion of the knocking signal. Before in-
stallation, it is essential to remove the
protective foil from the contact sur-
face of the sensor.
- Permanently securing the knock
sensor with the screws that are in-
cluded helps it function more reliably.
The sensitivity of the knock sensor is set
using a slide control (see “Automatic
door opening (ActiveDoor)” in “Guide to
the appliance”).
Spacer plates
Risk of damage caused by the
door dragging on the floor. Damage
to the drive unit of the appliance
door.
If the spacer plates included are not
installed in the niche, the distance
from the appliance door to the niche
floor will be too short.
Install the spacer plates on the niche
floor.
Always maintain a distance of
300mm from the front edge of the
niche.
The way in which the spacer plates are
installed has an impact on the func-
tion.
The distance from the appliance door
to the niche floor is increased.
Levelling rails
These are enclosed from a niche
height of 1400mm.
The noise level is reduced when they are
installed.

Cover strip
For installation in a niche with a niche
height of less than 1777mm but at
least 1772mm.
If the cover strip does not fit between
the refrigeration appliance and the niche
ceiling, it does not need to be fitted.
Furniture door panel
Horizontal and vertical gaps
To prevent the appliance door from
being struck from the side or becom-
ing jammed whilst the door is open-
ing automatically, a gap of at least
4mm must be maintained.
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.
- Horizontal gap
The gap between the furniture door and
the housing unit door above or below it
must be at least 4mm.
21
background
Installation
- Vertical gap
If the joint gap between the refrigera-
tion appliance furniture door panel
and adjoining kitchen furniture front
or wall on the hinged side is too
small, the refrigeration appliance
door may collide with it when
opened.
Check the furniture door panel for
any collisions.
Determine the required joint gap
width based on the thickness and
edge radius of the furniture door
panel.
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 VDE0100 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
EN50160 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-E2510-2.
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.

Operation
The correct temperature
It is very important to set the correct
temperature to ensure the shelf life of
food. Reducing the temperature reduces
the growth rate of microorganisms.
Food does not spoil as quickly.
The temperature in the refrigeration ap-
pliance will rise:
- The more often the appliance door is
opened and the longer it is kept open
- The more food that is stored in it
- The warmer the food is which is being
put into it
- The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appli-
ance. This refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within specific ambi-
ent temperatures (climate range). Do
not use in ambient temperatures for
which it is not designed.
...in the refrigerator section and in the
PerfectFresh Active zone
We recommend a temperature of 4°C
in the refrigerator section.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh
Active zone is controlled automatically
and maintained at 0 to 3°C.
Automatic temperature distribution
(DynaCool)
The fan switches on automatically when
the cooling system for the refrigerator
switches on. It distributes the temperat-
ure in the appliance to all areas more
evenly so that all the food will be chilled
to about the same degree.
Temperature display
In normal operation, the temperature
display shows the current average re-
frigerator section temperature inside
the refrigeration appliance.
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 on the display.

Storing food in the fridge zone
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.
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 temperat-
ure.
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.
42
background
Operation
Coldest area
The coldest area in the fridge zone is
directly above the PerfectFreshActive
zone dividing plate and at the back of
the appliance. The temperature in the
PerfectFreshActive zone compartments
is even colder.
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 in
the fridge zone and in the
PerfectFreshActive zone to store all
delicate and highly perishable food, in-
cluding:
- 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)
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
PerfectFreshActive zone).
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.
Storing food in the PerfectFresh
Active zone
PerfectFresh Active zone
The PerfectFresh Active zone satisfies
the requirements of a chill compart-
ment to DINEN62552:2025.
The PerfectFresh Active zone provides
ideal storage conditions for fruit, veget-
ables, fish, meat and dairy products.
Food stays fresh considerably longer
while retaining both flavour and vitam-
ins.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh
Active zone is controlled automatically
and maintained at 0to3°C. While
lower than the temperature in a stand-
ard refrigerator section, this is the op-
timum temperature range for storing
fresh food which is not sensitive to cold.
The humidity level in the PerfectFresh
Active zone can also be regulated to suit
the food being stored. If the humidi-
fier is switched on, water vapour is
supplied to the stored fruit and veget-
ables. The humidifier switches on ap-
proximately every 90minutes and each
time the appliance door is opened. Food

retains its own moisture if stored at a
higher humidity and so does not dry out
as quickly.
Remember that the fresher the food
when placed in the appliance, the
longer it will stay fresh.
Take food out of the PerfectFresh Act-
ive zone approx.30to60minutes be-
fore using it. The aroma and taste do
not fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
Humidity-controlled compartment
| |
The upper humidity-controlled com-
partment has a temperature of
0to3°C, and the humidity level is in-
creased depending on the position of
the compartment cover: not in-
creased or increased.
Humidity level not increased
When the setting is used, the humid-
ity-controlled compartment becomes a
dry compartment (see “Dry compart-
ment”).
Increased humidity
At this setting, the humidity-controlled
compartment is suitable for storing fruit
and vegetables.
Increased humidity in the humidity-
controlled compartment can 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
cloth.
Open the compartment cover by
moving it to the low humidity posi-
tion.
Switch off the humidifier .
Selecting increased humidity
When the setting is used, the hu-
midifier should be switched on.

Operation
Humidifier
When the humidifier is switched on,
water vapour is supplied to the fruit
and vegetables stored in the humidity-
controlled compartment each time the
appliance door is opened and approx-
imately every 90minutes. The water
vapour provides additional humidity in
the humidity-controlled compartment.
The humidifier and its water container
are located in the dividing plate between
the refrigerator section and
PerfectFresh Active zone.
Check and pay attention to the following
before switching the humidifier on (see
“Selecting further settings”):
- The water container must have been
cleaned, filled with water and fitted
securely.
- The cover for the humidity-controlled
compartment must be closed
(setting).
The water in the water container
should last for approx. 4months.
The water container will only need to
be refilled if the humidifier is no longer
producing any water vapour.
Risk of damage due to incorrectly
filled water container.
Liquids containing sugar can damage
the humidifier.
Use only fresh drinking water to fill
the water container.
Risk to health due to contamin-
ated water.
Using contaminated water can lead
to poisoning.
Use only fresh drinking water to fill
the water container.
Risk to health due to contamin-
ated water.
Bacteria can develop in water which
has been sitting in the water con-
tainer for too long. This poses a risk
to your health.
If the refrigeration appliance, the
fridge zone or the humidifier has
been out of operation for more than
2days, clean the water container and
fill it with fresh drinking water.
If Holiday mode has been activ-
ated for more than 2weeks, clean
the water container and fill it with
fresh drinking water.
Filling the water container for the hu-
midifier
Press on the outer corners at the back
of the glass shelf.
The glass shelf will lift up at the front.
Lift up the shelf and fold it back.
The glass shelf will stand upright.
Push the slider to the left.
The water container will spring out of
the recess.
Remove the water container and fill it
up to the marker with drinking water.
Reinsert the water container.

Operation
Dry compartment
|
The dry compartment has a temperat-
ure of 0to3°C and the humidity is not
increased .
The dry compartment 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 milk, yoghurt,
cheese, double cream, etc.
- Plant-based products such as tofu,
oat drinks, hummus, vegetable
spreads, meat and cheese substi-
tutes, etc.
- Any type of food can in fact be stored
in this compartment, as long as it is
packaged.
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.
47
background
Operation
Observe the following tips if you find that food you have stored does not keep
well (e.g. food becomes limp or wilts after only being stored for a short time):
Only place fresh food in the appliance. The initial condition of the food is crucial
to maintaining freshness.
Clean the compartments in the PerfectFresh Active zone before storing food in
them.
Very wet food should be dried off before storing it.
Do not store any food in the PerfectFresh Active zone which is sensitive to cold.
Select the correct PerfectFresh Active compartment for the food as well as the
correct position for the compartment cover (humidity not increased or humidity
increased).
An increased humidity level in the humidity-controlled compartment is
achieved with the moisture present in the food being stored if the food is stored
unwrapped. The more food stored in the compartment, the higher the humidity.
Do not overfill the compartments.
If you find that too much condensate has formed when using the setting and
this is affecting the food:
- Wipe off any condensate with a cloth.
- Place a rack or similar item in the compartment so that excess moisture can drain
away.
- Open the compartment cover by moving it to the low humidity position and
switch the humidifier off.
If the humidity level is too low despite the setting, wrap the food in airtight
packaging.
If you think that the temperature in the PerfectFresh Active zone is too high or
too low, try regulating it slightly first by changing the temperature in the fridge
zone by 1or2°C. If ice crystals start to form on the base of the PerfectFresh
Active compartments, increase the temperature as otherwise the cold temperat-
ure will damage the food.
If adjusting the temperature in the fridge zone does not remedy the problem, ad-
just the temperature in the PerfectFresh Active zone (see “Adjusting settings”).

Explanation of the different set-
tings
Only the settings that require further ex-
planation are described below.
The door alarm and other warnings are
automatically suppressed when you
are in Settings mode.
Party mode
The Party mode function is particu-
larly recommended for the rapid
chilling of large amounts of fresh food
or drink.
Tip: Switch on the Party mode func-
tion approx. 4hours before placing
food and drinks in the appliance.
When Party mode is switched on, the
SuperCool function is switched on
automatically.
Party mode cannot be switched on if
Holiday mode is switched on.
The Party mode function will switch
itself off automatically after approx.
24hours. However, you can switch the
Party mode function off early at any
time.
Holiday mode
The Holiday mode function is use-
ful when you go on holiday, for ex-
ample, if you do not wish to switch off
the refrigerator section completely or
do not need a high degree of cooling.
If Holiday mode is switched on, this
will be indicated on the start display. It
can be switched off via the start display
or Settings mode.
The refrigerator section is regulated at a
temperature of 15°C, which automatic-
ally sets the temperature in the
PerfectFresh Active zone to between
9and12°C. In this way, the refrigerator
section remains in operation whilst sav-
ing energy.
Food which does not go off quickly can
be stored in the refrigeration appliance
for some time at this moderate refri-
gerator temperature. Energy consump-
tion is lower than in normal operation.
This also prevents the build-up of
odours and mould, which can occur if
the refrigerator section is switched off
and the appliance door is closed.
Health risk caused by decompos-
ing food.
The usability and quality of food in
the fridge zone may deteriorate if the
temperature remains above 4°C for
an extended period.
Only ever switch on the Holiday
mode function for a limited
period.
Do not store any temperature-sensit-
ive food which goes off easily, such
as fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and
dairy products, during this time.
