Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material

The transport and protective packing has been selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal, and should be recycled.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children. Danger of suffocation!

Disposal of your old appliance

They are, however, essential for the correct functioning of your appliance. Please do not therefore dispose of it with your household waste.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre or contact your dealer for advice. Ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.

Take care not to damage the pipework at the back of it before or during transportation to an authorised collection depot. In this way, refrigerant in the pipework and oil in the compressor will be contained, and will not leak out into the environment.

Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Before setting up the appliance,

check it for any externally visible damage. Do not install and use a damaged appliance.

This appliance contains the coolant

Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Care must be taken during transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes. In the event of any damage:

– avoid open flames and anything

which creates a spark,

–

disconnect from the mains,

–

air the room in which the appliance is located for several minutes and

–

contact the Service Department for advice.

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.

Before connecting the appliance to

the mains supply, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (voltage and connected load) match the mains electricity supply. This data must correspond in order to avoid the risk of damage to the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

The electrical safety of this

appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with current local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly, and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage or injury caused by the lack of or inadequacy of an effective earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

If the connection cable is faulty it

must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.

Safe operation of the appliance is

only assured if it has been installed and connected in accordance with these operating and installation instructions.

Warning and Safety instructions

Installation work, maintenance and

repairs may only be carried out by suitably qualified and competent persons in accordance with national and local safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and the manufacturer will not be held liable. Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

The appliance is only completely

isolated from the electricity supply when:

– it has been switched off at the wall

socket and the plug has been withdrawn, or

– the fuse from the fused spur

connection unit has been withdrawn, or

– the mains fuse has been

disconnected, or

– the screw-out fuse is removed (in

countries where this is applicable).

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).

This appliance must not be used in

a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the appliance and its surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any

damage which may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered by the guarantee.

Correct use

Do not store explosive materials in

the appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Thermostats switching on may produce sparks which could present a fire hazard. Flammable compounds could explode.

Do not use any electrical equipment

in this appliance. Danger of sparking and explosion.

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 block the ventilation gaps in

the appliance as this would impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and could cause damage to the appliance.

The appliance is designed for use

within certain climate ranges (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, can lead to the appliance switching off for longer periods so that it cannot maintain the required temperature.

Do not use a steam-cleaning

appliance to clean this appliance. Steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Warning and Safety instructions

Disposing of your old appliance

Before disposing of an old

appliance, first make the door latch or lock unusable. This way you will prevent children from accidentally locking themselves in and endangering their lives.

Be careful not to damage any part of

the pipework whilst awaiting disposal, e.g. by

puncturing the refrigerant channels

–

in the evaporator.

– bending any pipework.

– scratching the surface coating.

Splashes of refrigerant can damage the eyes.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance with these Warning and Safety instructions.
