Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

The coolant system is tested for leaks. This appliance complies
with statutory safety requirements and the appropriate EU guidelines.
This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural
gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the green­house effect. The use of this coolant has, however, led 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 coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable, and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance. Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes. In the event of any damage:
– avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity supply,
– ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several
minutes, and
– contact the Miele Service Department.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
The more coolant there is in a refrigeration appliance, the larger
the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the ap­pliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up. For every 11 g of coolant at least 1m3 of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
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.
Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from danger.
Do not connect the 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.
7
Warning and Safety instructions
The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during
installation, maintenance and repair work.
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
While the appliance is under guarantee, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genu-
ine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use

The appliance is designed for use within a certain climate range
(ambient temperatures), and should not be used outside this range. The climate range for your appliance is stated on the data plate in­side the appliance. Installing it in a room with too low an ambient temperature, e.g. a garage, will lead to the appliance switching off for longer periods so that it cannot 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.
Do not store explosive materials in the appliance or any products
containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Electrical components could cause flammable vapours to ignite. Danger of fire and explosion.
Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g. an electric ice cream
maker) inside the appliance. Danger of sparking and explosion.
Do not store cans or bottles containing carbonated drinks or li-
quids which could freeze in the freezer. The cans or bottles could ex­plode. Danger of injury and damage to the appliance.
When cooling drinks quickly in the freezer, make sure bottles are
not left in for more than one hour; otherwise they could burst, caus­ing injury or damage.
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 frost burn.
9
Warning and Safety instructions
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. The very low temperature of the frozen ice or lollies 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.
Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with
this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manu­facturers will invalidate the guarantee, and Miele cannot accept liab­ility.

Warning and Safety instructions

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 foods or remove ice trays.
Do not place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to de-
frost it. These can damage the plastic parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays or de-icers, as they could contain
substances which could damage the plastic parts or which might cause the build-up of gases and pose a danger to health.

Transporting the appliance

Always transport the appliance in an upright position and in its ori-
ginal transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Danger of injury and damage. The appliance is very heavy and
must be transported by two people.

Warning and Safety instructions

Disposal of your old appliance

Before disposing of an old appliance, first make the door latch or
lock unusable. This way you will prevent children from accidentally locking them­selves in and endangering their lives.
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. In normal operation there is no risk.
The oil in the compressor can be fatal if swallowed or if it penet-
rates the airways.
12

Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing mater­ial
The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufactur­ing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances of­ten contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, com­pounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to hu­man health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com­munity waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic ap­pliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also respons­ible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of.
Take care not to damage the pipework at the back of it before or during trans­portation to an authorised collection de­pot. In this way, refrigerant in the pipework and oil in the compressor will be con­tained, and will not leak into the envir­onment.
Please ensure that your old appliance presents no danger to children while being stored awaiting disposal. See "Warning and Safety instructions" for more information.
