Technical safety

The coolant circuit has been checked for leaks. The refrigeration appliance complies with statutory and regulatory requirements.

This refrigeration appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is combustible, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not contribute to 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 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 coolant can damage the eyes.

In the event of damage:

-Avoid open flames or anything which creates a spark.

-Disconnect the refrigeration appliance from the power supply.

-Ventilate the room where the refrigeration appliance is located for several minutes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- Contact Miele Customer Service.

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 a combustible gas/ air mixture building up. For every 11 g of coolant, at least 1 m3 of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the refrigeration 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 the appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly grounded. 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 electricity supply.

The outlet must not be concealed behind the appliance and must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly disconnected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency.

If the power cord supplied is damaged, it must only be replaced by an original part to prevent a hazard for the user. Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when original Miele parts are used.

The electrical outlet must be properly grounded.

Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

If moisture gets into electrical components or into the power cord, it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate the machine in areas where there may be moisture or splashing water (e.g., garages, laundry rooms).

This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile installations (e.g. on a ship).

Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check the appliance for visible signs of damage.

For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has been built in.

-the power cord has been unplugged. Pull on the plug and not on the cord when removing it from the outlet.

Installation, repair, and maintenance work should only be performed by a Miele-authorized service technician.

Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.

Any manufacturer's warranty will be void if the appliance is not repaired by a Miele approved service technician.

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele replacement parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Correct use

The refrigeration appliance is designed for use within a specific climate class (room temperature range). Do not use in a climate class for which it is not designed. A lower room temperature will cause the compressor to switch off for longer periods, meaning that the refrigeration appliance is unable to maintain the required temperature.

WARNING! DANGER of overheating! Do not cover or block the air vents. This can impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the power consumption and cause damage to the appliance.

If storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil in the appliance, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic components as this could cause stress cracks or break the plastic.

Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store any explosive materials or products containing flammable propellants (e.g., spray cans) in the appliance. Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of gases to ignite.

Risk of explosion. Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g., an electric ice-cream maker) inside the refrigeration appliance. Risk of sparking and explosion.

When eating stored food, there is a danger 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. Observe the manufacturer's “use-by” dates and storage instructions.

Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become invalid.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Stainless steel machines:

Adhesives will damage the coated stainless steel surface and cause it to lose its dirt-repellent protective coating. Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape, or other types of adhesive on the stainless steel surface.

The surface is easily scratched. Even magnets can cause scratching.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing the refrigeration appliance, please note the following:

-The electrical socket must be easily accessible in an emergency and not concealed behind the appliance.

-The plug and power cord must not touch the rear of the refrigeration appliance as they could be damaged by vibrations from the appliance.

-Do not plug in other appliances behind the refrigeration appliance.

If installation near a heat source is unavoidable, observe the following minimum distances between the appliance and the heat source:

-At least 1 1/4" (3 cm) to electric or gas stoves

-At least 11 3/4" (30 cm) to oil or coal-based stoves

If it is not possible to observe these minimum distances, an isolation plate must be installed between the refrigeration appliance and the heat source.

Climate class

The refrigeration appliance is designed for use within the climate class (room temperature range) SN-T. Do not use in a climate class for which it is not designed.

Climate class	Room tempera-
	ture

SN	50°F to 90°F /
	10°C to 32°C

N	60°F to 90°F /
	+16°C to +32°C

ST	60°F to 100°F /
	+16 to +38°C

T	60°F to 109°F /
	+16 to +43°C

A lower room temperature will cause the compressor to switch off for longer periods. This can cause the internal temperature in the refrigeration appliance to rise with the risk of food deteriorating and going off.
