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 refrigeration appliance contains the coolant Isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. The coolant
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 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 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 1m3 of room space is
required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
6
Warning and Safety instructions
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.
For safety reasons, this appliance may only be used after it has
been built in.
The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during
installation, maintenance and repair work.

Warning and Safety instructions
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 warranty, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the
warranty 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.
8
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.
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store explosive materials in the
refrigeration appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans). Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of
gases to ignite.
Danger of explosion. Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g.
an electric ice-cream maker) inside the refrigeration appliance.
Danger of sparking and explosion.
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 warranty, 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
Disposal of your old appliance
If your old refrigeration appliance has a door lock, destroy it. This
will prevent the risk of children playing 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. There is no risk during normal operation.
The oil in the compressor can be fatal if swallowed or if it penet-
rates the airways.
11
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.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electronic and electrical appliances
contain 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 your health and to the environment if
disposed of with general waste or if
handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with general waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances in your
local community, with your dealer or
with Miele. By law, you are solely responsible for deleting any personal data
from the appliance prior to disposal.
12
Take care not to damage your refrigeration appliance’s pipework before or during transportation to an authorised collection depot.
This is to ensure that coolant in the
cooling circuit and oil in the compressor
is contained, and will not leak into the
environment.
Please ensure that your old appliance
poses no risk to children while being
stored prior to disposal. For further information, see “Warning and Safety instructions” in these operating and installation instructions.

Switching off for longer periods of time
If, during a long absence, the refrigeration appliance is switched off
but not cleaned and the door(s) left
shut, there is a risk of mould forming
inside the appliance.
It is essential to clean the refrigeration appliance.
When the door is opened, the interior
lighting comes on and the LED lighting
on the adjustable shelves becomes
brighter until it reaches its maximum
brightness.
To enable the temperature to get sufficiently cold inside the appliance, allow the appliance to run for a few
hours before placing food in it.
If the refrigeration appliance is not going to be used for a longer period of
time, observe the following:
Switch the refrigeration appliance off.
Switch off at the wall socket and
withdraw the plug from the socket, or
disconnect the fuse.
Clean the refrigeration appliance and
leave the door ajar to air the appliance and avoid odours building up inside.
21
The correct temperature
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the appliance. Bacteria will cause food which
is not stored at the correct temperature
to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influences the growth rate of these bacteria.
Reducing the temperature reduces their
growth rate.
The temperature in the refrigeration appliance 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 be-
ing put into it
– The higher the ambient temperature
surrounding the refrigeration appliance. This refrigeration appliance is
designed for use within specific ambient temperatures (climate range).
Do not use in ambient temperatures
for which it is not designed.
... in the refrigerator section
and in the PerfectFresh Pro
zone
We recommend a temperature of 4°C
in the refrigerator section.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh Pro
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 temperature in the appliance to all areas more
evenly so that all the food will be chilled
to about the same degree.
22
The correct temperature
Temperature display
In normal operation the temperature
display shows the average, currenttemperature in the refrigerator.
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 temperature to then be shown as a constant temperature in the display.
Setting the temperature
Use the two sensors underneath the
display to set the temperature.
By touching the sensor
– the temperature will get colder,
– Leaving a finger on the sensor
changes the temperature continuously.
Approximately 5 seconds after the last
time a sensor has been touched, the
current temperature inside the appliance is automatically shown.
Or
Touch the OK sensor to confirm your
selection.
If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the appliance is not very full and for approx.
24 hours if the appliance is full before
checking the temperature display, as it
will take this long for the appliance to
give an accurate reading.
If, after this time, the temperature is
still too high or too low, you will need
to adjust it again.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted from
3°C to 9°C.

Storing food in the refrigerator section
Risk of explosion due to flam-
mable mixes of gases.
Electrical components can cause
flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Do not store explosive materials in
the refrigeration appliance or any
products containing propellants (e.g.
spray cans).
Risk of damage due to greasy or
oily foods.
If storing food which contains a lot of
fat or oil in the refrigeration appliance
or the appliance door, make sure
that it does not come into contact
with plastic components as this
could cause stress cracks or break
the plastic.
Make sure that no fat or oil leaks
onto the plastic parts of the refrigeration appliance.
Different storage zones
Due to natural air circulation, there are
different temperature zones in the refrigerator section.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the refrigeration section. Make
use of the different zones when placing
food in the appliance.
Tip: To allow air to circulate efficiently,
do not pack food too closely together in
the appliance.
If there is insufficient air circulation,
the cooling performance will decrease and energy consumption will
increase.
Do not cover the fan in the rear wall
of the appliance.
Tip: Do not store food in such a way
that it touches the rear wall of the refrigerator section as it may freeze to the
rear wall.
This appliance has automatic Dynamic
cooling, which helps to keep an even
temperature when the fan is running,
making the difference between the
various 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 butter and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the refrigerator section is directly above the PerfectFresh
Pro zone dividing plate and at the back
of the appliance. The temperature in the
PerfectFresh Pro zone compartments is
even colder.
Use these areas in the refrigerator and
in the PerfectFresh Pro zone for all delicate and highly perishable food, e.g.
– fish, meat, poultry,
– sausage products, ready meals,
– dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
– fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or
quiche dough,
– soft cheese and other dairy products,
– pre-packed vegetables and other
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4 °C.
33
Storing food in the refrigerator section
Food which is not suitable for
storage in the refrigerator section
Not all food is suitable for refrigeration
at temperatures below 5°C, because it
may be sensitive to cold. Depending on
the type of food, the appearance, consistency, flavour and/or vitamin content
may be altered if stored at too cold a
temperature.
Foods which are sensitive to cold include:
– Pineapples, avocados, bananas,
pomegranates, mangoes, melons,
papayas, passionfruit, citrus fruits
such as lemons, oranges, mandarins,
grapefruits
– Fruit (which is not yet ripe)
– Aubergines, cucumbers, potatoes,
peppers, tomatoes, courgettes
– Hard cheeses (e.g. Parmesan, moun-
tain cheese)
Notes on buying food
The freshness of food when first placed
in the appliance is an important factor
in determining how long it stays fresh,
and how long it can be kept in the appliance.
Take into account the use-by date and
the correct storage temperature.
Time out of the refrigerator, e.g. transporting food in a warm car, should be
kept to a minimum.
Tip: Take an insulated cool bag when
shopping, and load food in the appliance as soon as possible.
Storing food correctly
Food should generally be stored
covered or packaged in the refrigerator
section (there are some exceptions to
this rule in the PerfectFresh Pro zone see below). This will prevent food
smells from affecting other foods, food
from drying out, and also any crosscontamination of bacteria. This is especially important for storing proteinbased food such as meat or fish.
The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the
correct temperature and maintaining
good standards of hygiene.
34
Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
The PerfectFresh Pro zone provides
ideal storage conditions for fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and dairy products.
Food stays fresh considerably longer
while retaining both flavour and vitamins.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh Pro
zone is maintained automatically at
between 0 and 3°C. While lower than
the temperature in a standard refrigerator, this is the optimum temperature
range for storing fresh food which is not
sensitive to cold. The deterioration process is decelerated at this temperature
range so food can be stored without
loss of freshness for considerably
longer than in a standard refrigerator.
The humidity level in the PerfectFresh
Pro zone 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. This allows it to stay crisp and
fresh for longer.
The PerfectFresh Pro zone is divided
into two areas:
The Info system (shown here in sections) above the PerfectFresh Pro zone
helps you to choose the correct compartment and the appropriate setting in
the humidity controlled compartment.
– The temperature is between
0and3°C in the top dry compart-ment and the humidity level is not increased. Use this compartment to
store fish, meat, dairy products and
any other type of food, providing it is
wrapped.
Remember that the fresher the food
when placed in the appliance, the
longer it will stay fresh.
Take food out of the PerfectFresh Pro
zone approx. 30to60minutes before
using it. The aroma and taste do not
fully develop until the food has
reached room temperature.
– The temperature is between 0-3°C
in the bottom humidity controlledcompartment (depending on model,
there may be one or more of this type
of compartment). Depending on the
position of the regulator, the humidity
level is not increased or increased
/. Fruit and vegetables can be
stored in this compartment with the
humidity increased.
Each type of food has its own characteristics which determine the specific
storage conditions it requires.
35
Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
Dry compartment
The dry compartment is ideal for storing
foods which perish easily, such as
– fish and seafood;
– meat, poultry and sausages;
– salads and lettuce;
– dairy products, e.g. yogurt, cheese,
cream, quark etc;
– you can also use the dry compart-
ment to store all kinds of food,
providing it is wrapped.
The main advantage of the dry compartment is the low temperature (rather
than the humidity). The humidity in the
dry compartment is approximately the
same as in a standard refrigerator.
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.
Always keep these foods covered or
wrapped.
Humidity-controlled compartment, /
Humidity level not increased
At the setting the humidity controlled
compartment becomes a dry compartment - the regulator opens the vents in
the compartment to let the moisture escape (see “Dry compartment”).
Increased humidity/
With the regulator at the or setting, the humidity-controlled compartment is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables:
– Select the setting if storing a large
quantity of fruit and vegetables (the
regulator partially closes the vents in
the compartment so that some of the
moisture already present is retained).
– Select the setting if using the hu-
midity-controlled compartment to
store only a small quantity of fruit and
vegetables (the regulator closes the
vents in the compartment completely
so that all of the moisture already
present is retained).
36
Tip: If the humidity level is too high and
a lot of moisture has collected in the
compartment, select the setting. If
the humidity level is too low, place the
food in airtight packaging.
The humidity level greatly depends on
the type and quantity of food being
stored, if stored unwrapped.
Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
High humidity in the humidity-controlled compartment can cause condensate to build up on the floor of
the compartment as well as beneath
the lid.
Wipe off any condensate with a
cloth.
Note for test institutes:
When measuring energy consumption
in accordance with the standard, the
regulator in the humidity-controlled
compartment should be set to the
setting (“humidity not increased”).
Regulating the humidity level in the
humidity-controlled compartment
A slide control is used to regulate the
amount of moisture in the humidity controlled compartment by setting it to,
or .
Push the regulator back as far as it
will go and then release it slowly.
The regulator will click into the setting
automatically
To select the or setting, push
the regulator back and release it
again to engage it in the or position.
37
Storing food in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
The following tips may help 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 use the appliance for storing
fresh food. The condition of the food
when it is first placed in the appliance
is an important factor in determining
how long it stays fresh.
Clean the PerfectFresh Pro compart-
ments before storing food in them.
Allow very moist food to drain before
placing it in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
Do not store food which is sensitive
to cold in the PerfectFresh Pro zone
(see “Food which is not suitable for
storing in the refrigerator”).
Select the correct PerfectFresh Pro
compartment as well as the correct
position for the humidity controlled
compartment regulator (humidity not
increased or humidity increased).
Increased humidity / in the hu-
midity controlled compartment is
achieved via the moisture present in
the food being stored, i.e. the more
food stored in the compartment, the
higher the humidity.
If too much moisture has gathered on
the floor of the compartment and the
food has been affected, select the
setting. Otherwise dry the floor
and underneath the lid with a cloth
and place a rack or similar item in the
compartment so that moisture can
then drip down.
If the humidity level becomes too low
at the setting, wrap the food in
airtight packaging.
If you think that the temperature in
the PerfectFresh Pro zone is too high
or too low, try regulating it by altering
the temperature of the refrigerator
section slightly by 1 to 2 °C. The temperature must be increased if ice
crystals start to form on the floor of
the PerfectFresh Pro zone as otherwise the cold temperature will damage the food.

The refrigerator section and the
PerfectFresh Pro zone defrost automatically.
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the refrigerator section
and the PerfectFresh Pro zone while the
compressor is running. You do not need
to remove this, as it will defrost and
evaporate automatically with the
warmth generated by the compressor.
The condensate drains through a channel and drain pipe into an evaporation
system at the back of the refrigeration
appliance.
Keep the condensate channel and
drain hole clean to enable this. Condensate must be able to drain away
unhindered at all times.

Danger of damage and injury
due to the refrigeration appliance tipping over.
This refrigeration appliance is very
heavy and can tip forwards when the
appliance door is open.
Keep the appliance door(s) shut until
the refrigeration appliance has been
built in and secured in its housing in
accordance with these operating and
installation instructions.
Fire risk and danger of damage
from appliances which give off heat.
Appliances which give off heat can
catch fire and set fire to the refrigeration appliance.
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 appliance.
Side-by-side combinations
As a general rule, refrigeration appliances should not be installed vertically
or horizontally next to other such appliances so as to avoid a build-up of
condensation between them and the
damage this can cause.
Your refrigeration appliance must not be
installed next to another refrigeration
appliance (“side-by-side”), or above another one, because it is not equipped
with built-in heating units in the side
panels.
It can, however, be installed next to another refrigeration appliance with builtin heating as long as they are in separate niches. Please contact your Miele
retailer to find out which appliances are
suitable for this method of installation.

Installation
Location
This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
When deciding where to install your refrigeration appliance please bear in
mind that it will use more energy if installed near to a heater, a cooker or
other appliance that gives off heat. Direct sunlight should also be avoided.
The higher the room temperature, the
longer the compressor runs and the
higher the energy consumption is.
When installing the appliance, please
note:
– The socket must be easily accessible
in an emergency, not concealed behind the appliance.
– The plug and cable must not touch
the rear of the appliance as they
could be damaged by vibrations from
the appliance.
– Do not plug in other appliances be-
hind this appliance.
Risk of damage due to high hu-
midity.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on external refrigeration appliance panels,
which can cause corrosion.
Install the refrigeration appliance in a
dry and/or air-conditioned room with
sufficient ventilation.
After installation, make sure that the
appliance door closes properly, the
ventilation gaps are not covered and
that the refrigeration appliance has
been installed in accordance with
these operating and installation instructions.
Climate range
The appliance is designed for use within
a certain climate range (ambient temperatures) and should not be used outside this range. The climate range of the
appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.
Climate rangeAmbient room
temperature
SN+10to +32°C
N+16to +32°C
ST+16to +38°C
T+16to +43°C
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to switch off
for too long, causing the internal temperature in the appliance to rise with the
risk of food deteriorating and going off.
Ventilation
If the ventilation gaps given are
not observed, the compressor will
run more frequently and for longer
periods.
This will result in increased energy
consumption and a higher operating
temperature for the compressor. This
may, in turn, cause damage to the
compressor.
It is essential to observe the ventilation gaps given.
Air at the back of the appliance gets
warm. The appliance housing unit must
therefore be constructed to allow sufficient space for ventilation (see “Building-in dimensions”).

Installation
– Air intake occurs via the plinth at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top at the back
of the housing unit.
The air inlet and outlet must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
must also be regularly cleaned of
dust.
Top ventilation gap
The ventilation gap at the top of the appliance can be constructed in different
ways:
– A ventilation gap of at least 40mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
– The ventilation cross-sections in the
plinth, housing unit and above the
appliance must each provide an unobstructed airflow of at least 200cm²
to ensure that air can circulate
without hindrance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the ventilation gaps must be larger than
200cm². The unobstructed airflow of
200cm² is calculated by adding up
the total area of ventilation openings
in the grilles.
– Important! The appliance uses less
energy, the larger the ventilation
gaps.

Furniture door panel
Horizontal and vertical gaps
Depending on the style of kitchen furniture the thickness and edge radius of
the furniture door and the gap that runs
around the door, vertically and horizontally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following!
–Horizontal gap
The gap between the appliance furniture door and the housing unit door
above or below it must be at least
3mm.
– Vertical gap
If the gap between the appliance furniture door and the adjoining housing
unit door or wall on the hinged side
is too small, the appliance door
could collide with the adjoining housing unit door or wall when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the
size of this gap to suit the thickness
and edge radius of the appliance furniture door.

Installation
Electrical connection
The appliance is supplied with a mains
cable and moulded plug ready for connection to an AC single-phase 220–
240V50Hz supply.
The fuse rating must be at least 10A.
This appliance must be connected to a
suitable switched socket. The electrical
installation must be in compliance with
current local and national safety regulations, (e.g. VDE0100 in Germany / BS
7671 in the UK).
The socket 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 socket is no longer accessible
after installation, an additional means of
disconnection must be provided for all
poles. Suitable means of disconnection
include switches with an all-pole contact gap of at least 3mm. These include miniature circuit breakers, fuses
and contactors (EN60335).
Do not connect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply by an extension
lead. Extension leads do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance
(e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not connect the appliance to a
stand-alone inverter such as those used
with an autonomous energy source e.g.
solar power.
When the appliance is switched on,
power surges could result in a safety
switch-off. This could damage the electronic module. The appliance must not
be used with so-called energy savingdevices either. These reduce the
amount of energy supplied to the appliance, causing it to overheat.
If the mains cable needs to be replaced,
this must be performed by a qualified
electrician.
The mains plug and mains connection
cable must not come into contact with
the back of the appliance as vibrations
can cause damage to these components. This could result in a short circuit.
Do not plug in other appliances behind
this appliance.
