Technical safety
The coolant system is tested for
~
leaks.
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
refrigerant can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
avoid open flames and anything that
–
creates a spark,
disconnect the appliance from the
–
electrical power supply,
air the room in which the appliance is
–
located for several minutes
call Miele Technical Service
–
The more coolant there is in an
~
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 every8gofcoolant at least 1 m
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.
Be certain your appliance is
~
properly installed and grounded by a
qualified technician. To guarantee the
electrical safety of this appliance,
continuity must exist between the
appliance and an effective grounding
system. It is imperative that this basic
safety requirement be met. If there is
any doubt, have the electrical system of
the house checked by a qualified
electrician.

17
The right temperature
It is very important to set the correct
temperature for storing food in the
appliance. Microorganisms will cause
food which is not stored at the correct
temperature to spoil rapidly.
Temperature influences the growth rate
of these microorganisms. Reducing the
temperature reduces their growth rate.
The temperature in the appliance will
rise for the following reasons:
if you open the door frequently or
–
keep it open too long,
the more food that is stored in it
–
– if you put food in it that is too warm
– if the room temperature is too high.
The appliance is designed for use
within a certain climate range (room
temperature range) and should not
be used outside this range
. . . in the fridge section and in
the PerfectFresh zone
Automatic cold air circulation
(DynaCool)
The fan automatically turns on when the
cooling system for the refrigerator
section turns 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.
Temperature display
In normal operation the temperature
display shows the current averagerefrigerator temperature.
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.
We recommend a temperature of 39°F(4°C) in the refrigerator section.
The temperature in the PerfectFresh
zone is controlled automatically, and is
maintained at 32°F to 37°F (0°C to3°C).
