Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

The coolant circuit has been checked for leaks. The refrigeration
appliance complies with statutory safety requirements and the ap­propriate EU directives.
This refrigeration appliance contains the refrigerant isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly but flam­mable. The refrigerant does not damage the ozone layer and does not contribute to the greenhouse effect. The use of this refrigerant 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 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 refri­gerant 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 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.

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.

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.
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.
