Setting the temperature
Temperature range
The temperature can be selected within
the following ranges:
Refrigerator:
–
36°F (2° C) to 52°F (11° C).
A temperature of 39°F (4° C) is
recommended in the refrigerator
section.
Freezer:
–
3°F (-16° C) to -15 (-26° C).
To freeze fresh food and store frozen
food for an extended period of time, a
temperature of 0°F (-18°C) is
suggested.
Partially or completely thawed food
must never be refrozen.
The room temperature and the
installation location can affect the time it
takes for the appliance to get to the
desired temperature. If the room
temperature is too high, it may not be
possible for the appliance to reach the
lowest temperature.
Setting the temperature in the
refrigerator and freezer

During normal operation, the
temperature display shows the
temperature in the middle of the
refrigerator section and the temperature
in the warmest part of the freezer
section.
If the temperatures in the appliance are
not in the possible temperature display
range, dashes will flash in the
temperature displays.
The temperature displays flash if:
a different temperature is being set,
–
the temperature in the appliance has
–
risen by several degrees, indicating
that the appliance is warming up too
much.
This short-term loss of cooling is not a
cause for concern in the following
cases:
when the door has been left open for
–
a longer period, for example to take
out or put in a large amount of food,
– when fresh food is being frozen.
However, if the temperature remains
above 0°F (-18° C) for a longer period
of time, you will need to check to make
sure that any frozen food has not
started to thaw. Any food that has
started to thaw should be used as soon
as possible.

Using the Super and DynaCool functions
Super function
The Super function is used to rapidly
reduce the temperature in the
refrigerator and freezer sections to their
lowest settings (depending on the room
temperature).
When used with the refrigerator the
Super function is ideal for the rapid
cooling of drinks and refrigerating large
quantities of food.
When used with the freezer the Super
function is ideal for freezing large
quantities of unfrozen food. The
function should be switched on approx.
6 hours before the fresh food is placed
in the freezer. If the max. freezing
capacity is used allow 24 hours.
This helps food to freeze quickly and
retain its nutrients, vitamins, flavor and
appearance.
It is not necessary to use the Super
function in the freezer if you are loading
frozen food or if you are loading less
than 4.4 lbs (2 kg) of food.
Turning on the Super function of the
refrigerator/freezer
Press the Super button of the
^
refrigerator or freezer as desired, the
indicator light will turn on.

refrigerator/freezer
The Super function automatically turns
off after:
Refrigerator:approx. 6 hours
Freezer: approx. 30 - 60 hours
(depending on the amount of food
frozen).
The indicator light will go out, and the
appliance will run at normal power.
The Super function can be turned off
early, once a constant temperature
of 0°F (-18° C) or colder has been
reached in the freezer section, or once
the food and/or drinks are sufficiently
chilled in the refrigerator.
^
To turn the function off early, press
the Super button of the refrigerator or

will go out.
The appliance will now run at normal
power.
17
Page 18
Using the Super and DynaCool functions
DynaCool m
If the dynamic cooling function
(DynaCool) is not switched on, the
natural circulation of air throughout the
appliance can create different
temperature zones in the refrigerator
section, with the colder, heavier air
sinking to the lowest section. See
"Using the refrigerator efficiently".
If you are placing a large amount of
food in the refrigerator at one time, the
DynaCool function is recommended.
This will help to distribute the
temperature evenly throughout the
cavity so all food will be chilled to about
the same temperature.
The temperature can be set as usual,
with the temperature selection buttons.
DynaCool should also be selected if:
the room temperature is high (above
–
approx. 86°F (30 °C), and
the humidity is high.
–
Turning on DynaCool
Press the DynaCool button, the
^
indicator light will turn on.

Page 19
Using the refrigerator efficiently
Different storage zones
Due to the natural circulation of air in
the appliance, there are different
temperature zones in the refrigerator.
Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest
section of the appliance. Make use of
these different zones when placing
food in the appliance.
This appliance has a dynamic
cooling feature (DynaCool) helping
to keep an even temperature when
the fan is running. As a result, the
differences between temperature
zones are less pronounced.
Warmest area
The warmest area is in the top section
of the door. Use this area to store items
such as butter and cheese.
Coldest area
The coldest area in the refrigerator
section is directly above the fruit and
vegetable drawers.
Use these cold areas in the refrigerator
for all highly perishable foods, such as:
pre-packed vegetables and other
–
fresh food with a label stating it
should be kept at a temperature of
approx. 4°C .
Never store explosive materials in
the appliance, or products with
flammable propellants (e.g. spray
cans,). Danger of explosion!
If storing high-proof alcohol, make
sure it is tightly closed and stored
upright.
Do not store cooking oil in the
refrigerator door. Traces of oil can
cause stress cracks to occur in the
plastic components in the door.
Do not allow food to touch the rear
wall of the appliance, it may freeze
to the wall.
Leave some space between items
so that air can circulate freely
around them. Do not cover the fan in
the rear wall - this is important for
cooling performance!
–
fish, meat, poultry,
–
deli meats, store-bought meals,
–
dishes or baked goods containing
eggs or cream,
–
fresh bread dough, pastry dough,
cake batters,
–
dairy products.
19
Page 20
Using the freezer efficiently
Maximum freezing capacity
To ensure that food is frozen
thoroughly, the maximum freezing
capacity should not be exceeded.
See the data plate:
"Freezing capacity.....lbs/kg/24 hrs".
Freezing food
Fresh food should be frozen as quickly
as possible. This helps maintain the
nutritional value, vitamin content,
appearance and taste of the food.
Never refreeze partially or fully
defrosted food. Consume defrosted
food as soon as possible, it will lose its
nutritional value and spoil if left for too
long. Do not refreeze defrosted food
unless it has been cooked.
Before placing food in the freezer
^ When you are planning to freeze
large amounts of food (more than
4 ½ lbs [2 kg]), turn on the Super
function of the freezer ahead of time
(see "Super").
This will provide the food already in
the freezer with a protective boost of
cold air.
Placing food in the freezer
Food to be frozen can be placed
anywhere in the freezer section.
Large quantities of food should be
placed directly on the glass plates to
freeze the food quickly. To do this,
remove the two top freezer drawers.
When taking these drawers out be sure
not to block the ventilation slits in the
back wall of the appliance. They are
important for trouble-free operation of
the appliance.
The lowest freezer drawer should not
be removed.
Each drawer and each glass plate
can hold a maximum of 55 lbs
(25 kg).
^ Place the food flat in the bottom of
the freezer drawers or on the glass
plates, so that it will freeze through to
the core as quickly as possible.
^
When placing items in the freezer,
make sure the packaging and
containers are dry, to keep them from
sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that
already frozen food does not come
into contact with fresh food being
frozen, this could cause the frozen
food to defrost.
20
Page 21
Using the freezer efficiently
Freezing large items
If you would like to freeze large items
e.g. turkey or ham, the glass plates
between the drawers can be removed.
Remove the top full-width freezer
^
drawer, and carefully lift and slide out
the glass plates.
Freezer calendar
The calendar on the freezer drawers
indicates the suggested length of time
(in months) which various foods should
be stored.
If the storage time given on the
packaging differs, follow the advice on
the packaging.
Type of food Length of time
(months)
Cakes, ice cream,
stews/soups
Fish, mushrooms,
bread
Pork, veal, poultry 6 - 8
Beef, fruits,
vegetables
2-3
3-5
10-12
Defrosting
Frozen food can be defrosted in
different ways:
in a microwave oven,
–
at room temperature,
–
in the refrigerator (the cold given off
–
by the frozen food helps to keep the
other food cold),
in a steam oven.
–
Thin pieces of meat and fish can be
placed directly in a hot pan without
defrosting.
Poultry It is especially important to
observe proper hygiene when
defrosting poultry. Never save the liquid
from defrosted poultry. Drain it away
and promptly wash the container, the
sink and your hands. Danger of
salmonella poisoning.
Fruit should be defrosted at room
temperature in its packaging, or in a
covered bowl.
Most vegetables can be cooked while
still frozen. Simply place directly into
boiling water or hot oil.
21
Page 22
Using the freezer efficiently
Cooling drinks quickly
To cool drinks quickly, turn on the
Super function of the freezer. See
"Super" for more information.
Do not leave bottles in the freezer for
more than 1 hour, closed containers
could burst.
Cool pack
The cool pack prevents the
temperature in the freezer from rising
too quickly in the event of a power
failure.
Place the cool pack in the top freezer
drawer, directly on top of the food. The
pack will be at its most effective after
approx. 24 hours.
If there is a power failure the cool pack
will help keep food cold as long as
possible.
When placing fresh food in the freezer,
use the cool pack to separate the fresh
food from the already frozen food. This
will prevent the frozen food from
beginning to thaw.
22
Page 23
Automatic defrosting
Refrigerator section
The refrigerator defrosts automatically.
During normal operation, condensate
and frost can build up on the rear wall
of the refrigerator and drawers.
You do not need to remove this, as it
will defrost and evaporate automatically
with the heat generated by the
appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are kept clean and
are unblocked so that condensate
can flow away easily.
Freezer section
The freezer defrosts automatically.
The moisture generated in the
appliance collects on the condenser
and is automatically defrosted and
dissipated by the condenser from time
to time.
This automatic defrosting system
enables the freezer to remain
permanently ice-free, however the food
stored remains frozen.
23
Page 24
Adjusting the interior fittings
Moving the shelves
The shelves can be adjusted according
to the height of the food:
Lift the shelf, pull it forwards slightly,
^
until the notch at the side is in line
with the shelf support. It can now be
moved up or down as desired.
The raised edge at the back of the shelf
must face upwards to prevent food
from touching the back of the
appliance.
Stops prevent the shelves from
unintentionally being pulled out too far.
Split shelf
To accommodate tall items such as tall
bottles or containers, one of the shelves
is divided. The front section can be
gently pushed under the rear section:
^ Push the rear half of the glass shelf
up slightly.
^
With the rear half pushed up, lift the
front half of the glass shelf slightly,
then slide it carefully under the rear
half.
To move the split shelf:
Remove both halves of the glass.
^
Fit the brackets onto the support on
^
the left and right sides at the desired
height.

Cleaning and Care
To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, disconnect the appliance
from the power supply by shutting
off the power main, tripping the
circuit breaker or unplugging the
power cord before maintenance.
For the care and cleaning of
stainless steel surfaces use the
Miele stainless steel conditioner
(available from Miele Customer Ser
vice).
It contains substances that protect
the material and, compared to a
stainless steel cleaner, no polishing
agents. This gently removes soiling
and each application forms a
protective film that is stain- and
water-repellent.
Make sure that no water gets into
the electronics or into the lighting.
To avoid damage to the surfaces do
not use any
cleaning agents containing soda,
–
ammonia, acid or chloride,
limescale removers,
–
abrasive cleaning agents e.g.
–
powder or cream cleansers, pumice
stone,
cleaners containing solvents,
–
stainless steel cleaners,
–
dishwasher detergent,
–
– oven sprays,
– glass cleaners,
– abrasive hard sponges and brushes,
such as pan scrubbers,
– magic erasers,
– sharp metal scrapers.
Before cleaning
Do not let any cleaning water get
into the condensate drain opening.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the appliance. Steam could reach
the electrical components and
cause a short circuit.
Never remove the data plate inside
the appliance.
It contains important information that is
required in the event of a service call.
26
