Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by improper or incor-

rect use or operation of the appliance.

Warnings and safety notes

 The appliance can only be used by people with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,

if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use

it in a safe way and recognise and understand the consequences of

incorrect operation.

Safety with children

 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the refriger-

ation appliance unless they are constantly supervised.

 Children 8 years and older may only use the appliance unsuper-

vised if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way and recog-

nise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance

unsupervised.

 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the appliance and do

not let them play with it.

 Danger of suffocation. Whilst playing, children may become en-

tangled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull the

packaging material over their head, presenting the risk of suffocation.

Keep packaging material away from children.

Technical safety

 The coolant circuit has been checked for leaks. The refrigeration

appliance complies with statutory safety requirements and the ap-

propriate EU directives.

If the cooling circuit is damaged, refrigerant and oil can escape and ignite.

 Warning: fire hazard/flammable materials. This symbol is on the

compressor and indicates flammable materials. Do not remove this

sticker.

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 8g of refrigerant at least 1m

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.

Warnings and safety notes

 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 EN50160 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.

 The socket must not be concealed behind the refrigeration appli-

ance and must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be

quickly disconnected from the electrical supply in case of an emer-

gency.

 If the mains connection cable is damaged, disconnect the refriger-

ation appliance from the power supply immediately. Contact the

Miele Customer Service Department.

 If the electrical connection cable supplied is damaged, it must only

be replaced by an original spare part to prevent a hazard for the user.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when original

Miele spare parts are used. For safety reasons, such replacement

may only be carried out by a qualified specialist or the Miele Cus-

tomer Service Department.

 Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a

multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do

not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

 If moisture gets into electrical components or into the mains con-

nection cable, it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate

this refrigeration appliance in areas which are exposed to moisture

(e.g in a garage or utility room).

 This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.

on a ship).

 Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check the

appliance for visible signs of damage.

 This refrigeration appliance is not intended for use as a built-in ap-

pliance.

Warnings and safety notes

 The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during

installation, maintenance and repair work. It is only completely isol-

ated from the power supply when:

- the mains fuses are switched off, or

- the screw-out fuse is removed (where applicable), or

- the mains cable has been unplugged. Pull on the plug and not the

cable when disconnecting it from the power supply.

 Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause con-

siderable danger for the user.

Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a

Miele authorised technician.

 While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be un-

dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the

warranty is invalidated.

 Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele ori-

ginal spare parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of

the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

 This refrigeration appliance is supplied with a special lamp to cope

with particular conditions (e.g. temperature, moisture, chemical res-

istance, abrasion 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 refrigeration appliance contains several light sources with at

least energy efficiency classG.

Proper installation

 Change the door hinging (if necessary) as described in the installa-

tion instructions.

 Always wear protective gloves when transporting and setting up

the refrigeration appliance and when changing the door hinging.

 The refrigeration appliance is heavy and can tip forwards when the

appliance door(s) is/are open:

- At least 2people are required to transport or move the refrigera-

tion appliance.

- At least 2people are required to change the door hinging of the re-

frigeration appliance.

Warnings and safety notes

- At least 2people are required to install the refrigeration appliance.

- Never leave the refrigeration appliance unattended while it is being

installed.

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.

 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.

 Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. Do not store cans or

bottles containing carbonated drinks or liquids which could freeze in

the freezer zone. Otherwise they could burst.

 Danger of injury and damage to the appliance. When cooling drinks

quickly in the freezer zone, make sure bottles are not left in for more

than one hour. Otherwise they could burst.

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.

 To ensure that fresh food placed in the freezer freezes through to

the core as quickly as possible, the maximum freezing capacity must

not be exceeded. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a

24-hour period is given on the data plate: “Freezing capacity...kg/

24hrs”.

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 10years and up to 15years 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.

 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.

Warnings and safety notes

 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

 To avoid damage to the refrigeration appliance, always transport it

upright and in its packaging.

 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).

Warnings and safety notes

 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.

Sustainability and environmental protection

How to save energy...

Installation site The refrigeration appliance has to cool more often at higher ambi-

ent temperatures and consumes more energy in the process.

Therefore:

- 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 openings 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.

- -18°C in the freezer zone

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.

- Maintain a distance of 25mm between the back of the appli-

ance and the wall.

Installation

Installation site

 Risk of fire and damage from ap-

pliances which give off heat.

Appliances which give off heat can

catch fire and set fire to the refrigera-

tion appliance.

The mains connection cable must not

come into contact with heat sources.

Do not place appliances which give

off heat, such as mini-ovens, double

burner hobs or toasters on the refri-

geration appliance.

 Fire risk and danger of damage

from open flames.

Open flames can set fire to the refri-

geration appliance.

Keep open flames (e.g. a candle)

away from the refrigeration appli-

ance.

 Risk of 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.

The floor at the installation site must be

horizontal and level and must be as high

as the surrounding 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.

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.

Installation

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.

Ventilation requirements

 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.

The energy consumption was calcu-

lated with a distance=25mm

between the back of the appliance and

the wall. If the distance to the wall is

less than 25mm, the functionality of

the refrigeration appliance is main-

tained, but energy consumption in-

creases slightly.

Air at the back of the refrigeration appli-

ance gets warm. Sufficient space for

proper ventilation must therefore be en-

sured (see “Appliance dimensions”).

Installation

Installing several refrigeration

appliances next to one another

 Risk of damage due to condensa-

tion on external appliance panels.

In environments with high humidity,

condensation can build up between

the external refrigeration appliance

panels, which can cause corrosion.

Do not place different refrigeration

appliances directly next to one an-

other.

A distance of at least 70mm must be

maintained between the refrigeration

appliances.

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 damaging the electrical

components.

There are live components on the

door hinge (depending on the model).

Switch off the appliance at the wall

socket and withdraw the mains plug

before changing the hinging.

 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.

The larger the ventilation cross-sec-

tions, the less energy the compressor

will use.

Installation

 Install the refrigeration appliance next

to the kitchen unit.

- The appliance front must protrude in

front of the kitchen unit front by at

least the door depth. This enables the

appliance door to be opened and shut

without being obstructed.

- When installed next to a wall, a dis-

tance (A) must be maintained on the

hinge side between the wall and

the refrigeration appliance.

- To match the height of the rest of the

kitchen units, the refrigeration appli-

ance can be fitted with a suitable top

box.

An air outlet of 50mm depth must be

provided across the whole width of

the top box.

The ventilation cross-section under

the ceiling must be at least 300cm

to ensure that warm air can escape

without obstruction.

Installation

*INSTALLATION*

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.

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,



will light up red in the tem-

perature display of the freezer zone.

An alarm will also sound until the cause

of the alarm is rectified or the alarm is

switched off.

The set temperature determines when

the appliance recognises a temperature

as being too warm.

The audible and visual signals may be

activated in the following situations:

- You switch on the refrigeration ap-

pliance and the temperature in the

freezer zone differs greatly from the

set temperature.

- 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.

- There was a power cut.

- The refrigeration appliance has a

fault.

Familiarisation

 Health risk caused by decompos-

ing food.

If the temperature in the freezer re-

mains above -18°C for a long time,

the frozen food can start to defrost.

This will reduce the storage life of the

food.

Check whether the frozen food has

started to defrost. If it has, check that

the food is safe to use and if it is,

then use it as soon as possible or

cook it before freezing it again.

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.

 Tap OK.

The



symbol will go out and the alarm

will stop.

The warmest temperature recorded in

the freezer zone will flash for about

1minute in the temperature display for

the freezer zone. Then the temperature

display will change to the current tem-

perature in the freezer zone.

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.

If an appliance door is left open for a

longer period of time, 



will light up

yellow on the relevant temperature dis-

play. An alarm will also sound and the

Appliance functions

SuperCool

When switched on, the SuperCool func-

tion can be used to rapidly reduce the

temperature in the fridge zone to its

lowest setting (depending on the ambi-

ent temperature). The refrigeration ap-

pliance will work at full power and lower

the temperature.

Select this function for the rapid chilling

of large amounts of fresh food or drink.

The SuperCool function should be

switched on immediately before pla-

cing food or drinks in the fridge zone

(see “Operation – Switching

SuperCool on”).

The SuperCool function will switch it-

self off automatically after approx.

18hours.

SuperFreeze

When switched on, the SuperFreeze

function can be used to rapidly re-

duce the temperature in the freezer

zone to its lowest setting (depending on

the ambient temperature). The refrigera-

tion appliance will work at full power

and lower the temperature. Select this

function before freezing fresh food. This

helps food to freeze quickly and retain

its nutrients, vitamins, flavours and ap-

pearance.

The SuperFreeze function must be

switched on approx.6hours before

the food to be frozen is placed in the

freezer (see “Operation” section,

“Switching on SuperFreeze”). When

you are freezing the maximum amount

of food, the SuperFreeze function

should be switched on 24hours be-

forehand.

The SuperFreeze function will

switch itself off automatically after a

maximum of 72hours. The quantity of

fresh food placed in the freezer will de-

termine the duration before it switches

off.

DynaCool

Due to natural air circulation, there are

different temperature regions in the

fridge zone. Cold, heavy air sinks to the

lowest section of the fridge zone. You

should bear this in mind when storing

food in the appliance (see “Operation”

and “Storing food in the fridge zone”).

However, if you are storing a large

amount of similar food in the refrigerator

at any time, it is a good idea to turn on

DynaCool. This way you can distribute

the temperature on all the adjustable

shelves inside the appliance more

evenly so that all the food will be chilled

to about the same degree.

Also switch on the DynaCool func-

tion when:

- The ambient temperature is high

(above approx. 35°C)

- The humidity levels are high (e.g. in

the summer)

- When storing damp goods to pre-

vent condensate formation in the

fridge zone

The fan can also run when the func-

tion is deactivated. This ensures op-

timum temperature distribution in

the fridge zone.

Operation

Temperature display

In normal operation, the temperature

display shows the current average re-

frigerator section temperature and

the maximum freezer section tem-

perature.

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.

The temperature in the refrigeration ap-

pliance will always rise:

- The more often the appliance door is

opened and the longer it is kept open.

- The more food is stored in it.

- The warmer the food is which is 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.

Temperature range in the fridge zone

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.

The temperature in the fridge zone can

be adjusted from 2 to 9°C.

Temperature range in the freezer zone

 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 -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.

The temperature in the freezer zone

can be adjusted from -15°Cto -26°C.

Operation

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

dynamic cooling. When the fan is run-

ning, the cold is evenly distributed in

the fridge zone. The difference

between the various temperature

zones is less pronounced.

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

directly above the DailyFresh drawer

and at the rear panel of the appliance.

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.

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.

Operation

Storing food in the DailyFresh

drawer

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.

Adjusting the humidity level in the

DailyFresh drawer for fruit and veget-

ables

The moisture level greatly depends on

the type and quantity of food being

stored, if stored unwrapped.

If the quantity of food being stored in

this compartment is small, the humid-

ity level may be too low.

Tip: If you are only storing a small

amount of food, wrap it in airtight pack-

aging.

Selecting low humidity 

The appliance is delivered with in-

creased humidity and the compart-

ment cover pushed backwards .

Only change this position if the

DailyFresh drawer is excessively hu-

mid:

 Open the DailyFresh drawer.

 Pull the compartment cover forwards

as far as it will go.

The compartment cover is open and the

humidity drops .

Selecting increased humidity 

 Open the DailyFresh drawer.

 Slide the compartment cover back-

wards as far as it will go.

The compartment cover is closed and

the humidity remains in the compart-

ment .

Operation

Freezing and storing fresh food

Before placing food in the freezer

Only freeze fresh food which is in good

condition.

 When freezing more than 2kg of fresh

food, switch on the SuperFreeze func-

tion for 6hours before placing the

food in the freezer.

 When freezing even larger amounts of

food, switch on the SuperFreeze func-

tion for 24hours before placing the

food in the freezer.

This helps the frozen food which is

already stored in the freezer to stay

frozen.

Placing frozen food in the freezer

 Risk of damage caused by load-

ing too much food.

Loading food which is too heavy can

cause damage to the freezer draw-

ers/glass shelves.

Do not exceed the relevant maximum

load size:

Freezer drawer = 15kg

Glass shelf = 35kg

Unfrozen food should not touch

frozen food as this will cause the

frozen food to begin to thaw.

 To prevent food sticking together

when frozen, make sure that the pack-

aging and containers are dry.

To ensure that food freezes through to

the core quickly, do not exceed the fol-

lowing packaging and container sizes:

- Fruit and vegetables: max. 1kg

- Meat: max. 2.5kg

–Freezing small amounts of food

Freeze food in the top freezer drawer.

 Always place the food as far back in

the freezer drawer so that it freezes

through to the core as quickly as pos-

sible.

–Freezing the maximum amount of

food (see data plate)

Distribute the food in the top freezer

drawer. Only store food that has already

been frozen in the bottom drawer.

 Always place the food as far back in

the freezer drawer so that it freezes

through to the core as quickly as pos-

sible.

After freezing

 Switch the SuperFreeze function

off early as soon as food and drinks

are sufficiently chilled.

Cooling drinks quickly

To cool drinks quickly in the refrigerator

section, switch on the SuperCool func-

tion.

If you want to cool a large amount of

drinks, or if you want to cool drinks in

the freezer section, select Party mode

in Settings mode.

When cooling drinks quickly in the

freezer, make sure bottles are not left in

for more than one hour. Otherwise they

could burst.

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 cube tray from the

freezer if it is stuck.

Operation

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.

Cleaning and care

The data plate located inside the in-

terior cabinet of the refrigeration appli-

ance must not be removed. It contains

information which is required in the

event of a service call.

Do not let water get into the elec-

tronic unit or the lighting.

 Risk of damage due to moisture

ingress.

The steam from a steam cleaner can

damage plastic and electrical com-

ponents.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean

the refrigeration appliance.

Defrosting

Fridge zone and DailyFresh drawer

The fridge zone and the DailyFresh

drawer defrost automatically.

Condensate and frost can build up on

the back wall of the fridge zone whilst

the compressor is running. You do not

need to remove this.

The condensate drains through a con-

densate channel and condensate drain

hole into the evaporation system at the

back of the refrigeration appliance. The

warmth generated by the compressor

causes the condensate to evaporate

automatically.

Freezer zone

The refrigeration appliance is equipped

with a NoFrost system that defrosts the

freezer zone automatically.

Cleaning agents

Cleaning and conditioning agents

used in the interior cabinet of the re-

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)

- Eraser stain remover blocks

- Sharp metal scrapers

We recommend using a clean sponge

and lukewarm water with a little wash-

ing-up liquid to clean the surfaces of the

appliance.

Preparing the refrigeration ap-

pliance for cleaning

Cleaning the fridge zone only:

Use the cleaning mode.

 Take any food out of the fridge zone

and store it in a cool place.

 Take out any removable accessories

for cleaning.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the freezer zone/the entire

refrigeration appliance:

 Switch the refrigeration appliance off.

The symbol appears on the display

and the cooling system is switched off.

 Take any food out of the freezer zone/

refrigeration appliance and store it in

a cool place.

 Take out any removable accessories

for cleaning.

Cleaning the interior of the ap-

pliance

Clean the refrigeration appliance reg-

ularly, or at least once a month.

If soiling is left on for any length of

time, it may become impossible to

remove under certain circumstances.

Surfaces may 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.

 After cleaning, wipe with clean water

and dry with a cleaning cloth.

 Clean the condensate channel and

drain hole using a cotton swab or sim-

ilar item.

 Leave the door open to air the refri-

geration appliance sufficiently for a

short while and to prevent odour

build-up.

Cleaning accessories by hand

or in the dishwasher

The following components must be

cleaned by hand only:

- The stainless steel trim

- Adjustable shelf with printing

- All drawers and compartment lids

(these vary depending on model)

- The flexible bottle rack (available as an

optional accessory)

- Organisation box (available as an op-

tional accessory)

The following components are dish-

washer-safe:

 Risk of damage due to high dish-

washer temperatures.

Parts of the refrigeration appliance

may become unusable, e.g. deform, if

they are washed in the dishwasher at

more than 55°C.

For dishwasher-safe components, al-

ways select dishwasher programmes

with a maximum temperature of

55°C.

Contact with natural dyes from car-

rots, tomatoes and ketchup, etc., may

discolour the plastic parts in the dish-

washer. This discolouration does not

affect the stability of the parts.

- The bottle holder, egg tray, ice cube

tray

- The door and bottle shelves in the ap-

pliance door (without stainless steel

trim)

- Adjustable shelves (without the trim

or printing)

- The glass shelves (without protective

trims)

- The holder for the charcoal filter (avail-

able as an optional accessory)

Cleaning and care
