IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety with children
Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the appliance.
Children ages eight and up may only use the appliance oven without supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner, and if they are able to recognize and understand the potential risks of improper use.
Children must not clean or service the appliance unless they are under supervision.
Children should be supervised when they are near the appliance. This appliance is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury, do not allow children to play with it or to use the controls. They will not understand the potential dangers posed by it. They should be supervised whenever you are working in the kitchen.
Ensure that any packing material is disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!
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 and
–contact Miele Technical Service.
5
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m3 of 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.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Miele authorized technician in order to protect the user from harm.
Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
Do not use the appliance in areas where there may be moisture or splashing water (e.g. garages, laundry rooms, etc.).
Moisture can reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
This appliance is not to be used in non-stationary locations, such as ships.
Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check the appliance for visible signs of damage.
To ensure safe operation, use the appliance only when it is installed.
The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during installation, maintenance and repair work.
–the respective fuse has been removed,
–the circuit breaker has been tripped,or
–the power cord has been unplugged.
Pull on the plug and not on the cord when removing it from the outlet.
Repairs should only be carried out by a qualified and trained person in strict accordance with local and national safety regulations. Unauthorized repairs could cause personal injury or machine damage and may void the warranty.
Repairs and other work performed by unauthorized persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Defective components should only be replaced by Miele original parts. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the safety of the appliance.
Proper 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 turning off for longer periods so that it cannot maintain the required temperature.
Do not cover or block the air vents. This can impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and cause damage to the appliance.
WARNING! Danger of damage from overheating. May restirct operation. Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
If you store fatty or greasy foods in the appliance or the appliance door, make sure that no oil or grease leaks onto the plastic parts of the appliance. This can cause the plastic to crack and break.
Do not store explosive materials in the appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Electrical components could cause flammable vapors to ignite. Danger of fire and explosion.
Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g. an electric ice cream maker) inside the appliance.
Danger of sparking and explosion!
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become invalid.
Cleaning and care
Do not use any oil or grease on the door seals.
They can cause the seals to deteriorate over time.
WARNING! Risk of injury and damage. Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean the appliance.
The steam can reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Never use a pointed or sharp-edged object to
–remove frost or ice,
–separate frozen foods or remove ice trays.
This will damage the evaporators, causing damage to the appliance.
Do not place electric heaters or candles in the appliance to defrost it. These can damage the plastic parts.
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use defrosting sprays or de-icers, as they could contain substances which could damage the plastic parts or which might cause the build-up of gases and pose a danger to health.
Transport
Always transport the appliance in an upright position and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
The appliance is very heavy and must be transported by two people. Danger of injury and damage!
Disposal of your old appliance
There is a risk of suffocation. Children playing can shut themselves in and suffocate.
–Take the door(s) off.
–Remove the drawers.
–Leave the storage shelves in the appliance so that children cannot easily climb into the appliance.
Danger of electric shock.
–Cut off the plug from the power cord and discard.
–Cut off the power cord from the discarded appliance. Dispose of separately from the appliance.
Ensure during and after disposal that the appliance isn't stored in the vicinity of gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
When disposing of the appliance, ensure that the refrigeration circuit is not damaged to prevent uncontrolled escape of the refrigerant it contains (data on type plate) and oil.
Take care not to damage any part of the cooling system, for example by
–puncturing the coolant channels in the evaporator,
–kinking any pipework,
–scratching the surface coating.
Caution: Spraying coolant can damage the eyes.

Temperature and air quality
Wine keeps on maturing depending on the surrounding conditions. The length of time for which wine can be kept in good condition will therefore depend not only on the temperature but also on the air quality.
The wine storage unit with its constant ideal temperature, increased air humidity and odor-free atmosphere offers the perfect conditions for storing your wine.
It also guarantees a vibration-free environment so that the maturing process is not disturbed.
Temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature between 43°F and 64°F (6°C and 18°C). If you are storing white and red wines together, select a temperature between 54°F and 57°F (12°C and 14°C). This is suitable for both red and white wines.
At too high a temperature (over 72°F (22°C)), wine matures too quickly, which prevents the aromas from developing further. Wine cannot mature fully at too low a temperature (below 41°F (5°C)).
Fluctuations in temperature put wine under stress and interrupt the maturing process. It is therefore very important to maintain a constant temperature.

Tip: Store the wine 3°F to 5°F (1°C or 2°C) degrees cooler than the recommended drinking temperature as it warms up a little when poured into the glass.
A full-bodied red should be opened for 2-3 hours before drinking to allow it to breathe and develop its aroma.

Safety device in case of low ambient temperatures
The appliance is equipped with a safety thermostat to protect your wine against a sharp drop in temperature. If the external temperature should drop below this level, a heater element turns on automatically to keep the temperature inside as constant as possible. If the ambient temperature continues to fall, the appliance turns itself off automatically.
Isolator panels for thermal separation
The appliance has a fixed isolator plate which divides the cabinet into two different zones. This enables you to store different types of wine at the same time, e. g., red wine and champagne. The isolation strips on the inside of the glass door prevent an exchange of heat between the individual zones.
Setting the temperature
The temperature can be set in both zones independently of each other.
Tap the sensor button for the zone for which you wish to change the temperature so that it is highlighted in yellow.
The current temperature for the selected zone appears in the display.
Set the temperature using the two buttons underneath the display.
By touching the button:
–the temperature will get colder,
–the temperature will get warmer.
Tap the OK button to confirm your selection.
or
Wait approximately 5 seconds after the last press of the button.

Temperature and air quality
The temperature being set will flash in the display.
The following information shows in the display when the buttons are tapped:
–When first touched:
The last temperature selected flashes.
–Each subsequent touch of the button:
The temperature value adjusts in 1° steps.
–Keeping your finger on the button: The temperature changes continuously.
Approximately 5 seconds after the last time a sensor button has been touched, the current temperature inside the appliance is automatically shown.
When the temperature is altered, there is a short delay until the temperature selected is set.
The temperature display on the control panel always shows the actual temperature.
Possible setting values for the temperature
In both zones, it is possible to set temperatures between 41°F and 68°F (5°C and 20°C).
Temperature display
In normal operation, the temperature display shows the actual temperature in the zone.
If the temperature in one of the zones is not within the range that the appliance is able to display, dashes will light up in the temperature display.
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.
