IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Children

Children near the wine conditioning unit must be supervised. Do
not let children play with the wine conditioning unit.
Ensure that any packing material is disposed of safely and kept
out of the reach of children. DANGER of suffocation!

Technical safety

If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a Miele au-
thorized technician in order to protect the user from harm.
The refrigerant circuit has been checked for leaks. The wine con-
ditioning unit complies with statutory safety requirements.
This wine conditioning unit contains the coolant Isobutane
(R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. The coolant does not damage the ozone layer and does not contribute to 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 cooling circuit. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but it does not affect the performance of the wine conditioning unit. When transporting and installing the wine conditioning unit, ensure that no parts of the cooling circuit are damaged. Splashes of coolant can damage the eyes. In the event of damage:
- Avoid open flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the wine conditioning unit from the electricity supply.
- Ventilate the room where the wine conditioning unit is located for several minutes.
7
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Contact Miele Service.
The more coolant there is in a wine conditioning unit, the larger
the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the wine conditioning is in a small room, there is the danger of com­bustible gases building up. For every 0.38oz (11g) of coolant at least 35.3 cubic feet (1m3) of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the wine conditioning unit is stated on the data plate in­side the wine conditioning unit.
To avoid the risk of damage to the wine conditioning unit, 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 wine conditioning unit. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of the wine conditioning unit can only be
guaranteed when correctly grounded. It is essential that this stan­dard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the elec­trical installation tested by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of the wine conditioning unit can only
be guaranteed if it is connected to the power supply.
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.
If moisture gets into electrical components or into the power cord,
it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate the wine conditioning in areas where there may be moisture or splashing wa­ter (e.g., garages, laundry rooms).
This wine conditioning unit must not be used in a non-stationary
location (e.g. on a ship).
Before installation and use check the wine conditioning unit for
any visible damage. Do not operate or install a damaged appliance.
8
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure safe operation, use the wine conditioning unit only
when it has been installed.
The wine conditioning unit must be disconnected from the power
supply during installation, side-by-side heater installation, mainte­nance and repair work. The appliance is only disconnected from the power supply if:
- 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.
Installation, repair, and maintenance work should only be per-
formed by a Miele-authorized service technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty.
Repairs and other work performed by unauthorized persons could
be dangerous and may void the warranty.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele re-
placement parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of the appliance when Miele replacement parts are used.

Proper use

The wine conditioning unit is designed for use within a certain cli-
mate range (ambient temperatures) and should not be used outside this range. The climate range for your wine conditioning unit is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a room with too low an ambient temperature will cause the compressor to shut down for longer periods of time so that the unit cannot maintain the re­quired temperature.
Do not cover or block the air vents. This can impair the efficiency
of the appliance, increase the power consumption and cause dam­age to the appliance.
9
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
If the wine conditioning unit is used for storing food which con-
tains fat or oil, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic components. Any spillages of oil or fat could cause stress cracks to the plastic and cause it to break or split.
Risk of fire and explosion. Do not store explosive materials in the
wine conditioning unit or any products containing propellants (e.g., spray cans). Electrical components can cause flammable mixes of gases to ignite.
Risk of explosion. Do not operate any electrical appliances inside
the wine conditioning unit. Risk of sparking and explosion.
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If parts or accessories from
other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become invalid.
10
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Cleaning and care

Do not use any oil or grease on the door seals.
They can cause the seals to deteriorate over time.
Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean this wine condi-
tioning unit. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short cir­cuit.
Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, caus-
ing irreversible damage to the wine conditioning unit. Do not use sharp edged or pointed objects to
- remove frost and ice,
- remove labels, stickers, etc.
11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Transport

Always transport the wine conditioning unit in an upright position
and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit.
Risk of injury and damage. The wine conditioning unit is very
heavy and must be transported by two people.

Disposing of your old appliance

If your old wine conditioning unit or refrigerator has a door lock,
destroy it. This will prevent the risk of children playing accidentally locking themselves in and endangering their lives.
Splashes of coolant can cause damage to the eyes. Be careful not
to damage any part of the pipework while awaiting disposal, e.g. by
- puncturing the coolant channels in the evaporator,
- kinking any pipework,
- scratching the surface coating.
12

Caring for the environment

Disposal of packaging material

The packaging is designed to protect the wine conditioning unit from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are 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 children. Return the packaging to your dealer.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances contain valuable materials. They also contain certain substances, compounds and components which were essential for the proper functioning and safe use of the equipment. Handling these mate­rials improperly by disposing of them in your household waste can be harmful to your health and the environment. There­fore, please do not dispose of your old appliance with regular household waste and follow local regulations on proper disposal.
Consult with local authorities, dealers or Miele in order to dispose of and recycle electrical and electronic appliances. Miele assumes no responsibility for deleting any personal data left on the appliance being disposed.
Take care not to damage the pipework at the back of your wine conditioning unit before or during transportation to an authorized, environmentally friendly collection depot. This way, coolant in the pipework and oil in the compressor will be contained, and will not leak into the environment.
Please ensure that your old appliance does not pose a danger to children while being stored prior to disposal. See “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUC­TIONS” for more information.

The Push2open system is deactivated at the factory. The system has to be activated by touching the On/Off sen­sor only when the appliance has been installed in the niche (see “Switching the wine conditioning unit on and off”).

Opening the door

Risk of damage!
To avoid damage to the door-open­ing aid: Do not obstruct the appliance door while it is opening. Do not push in or hold onto the door catch while the door is closing.

Closing the door

Push the door shut.
Please note that using magnets di­rectly in front of the wine conditioning unit door can cause it to open unin­tentionally. This is caused by the door­closing mechanism on the wine condi­tioning unit.
Press gently against the appliance
door and then release it. The door will then open a little way automatically.
Then pull the door fully open.
To protect against inadvertent open­ing: if you do not open the door wider, it closes again by itself after approx. 3seconds.

Optimum temperature and air quality

Wine continues to mature 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 conditioning unit with its con­stant ideal temperature, increased air humidity and odor-free atmosphere of­fers the perfect conditions for storing your wine.
The wine conditioning unit also guaran­tees a vibration-free environment (in contrast to a refrigerator) so that the maturing process is not disturbed.

Temperature

Wine can be stored at a temperature between 42° and 64°F (6° and 18°C). If you are storing white and red wines to­gether, select a temperature between 53° and 57°F (12° and 14°C). This is suitable for both white and red wines. Red wine should be taken out of the wine conditioning unit and opened at least two hours before drinking to allow it to breathe and develop its aroma.
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).
Type of wine Recommended
drinking temper­ature
Light, fruity red wines:
Full-bodied red wines:
Rosé wines: 46° to 50°F (8° to
Delicate, aromatic white wines:
Full-bodied or sweet white wines:
Champagne, sparkling white wines:
Tip: Store the wine 1° or 2° cooler than the recommended drinking temperature as it warms up a little when poured into the glass.
Tip: Full-bodied reds should be opened for 2-3 hours before drinking to allow it to breathe and develop its aroma.

46° to +57°F (12° to 14°C)
43° to 50°F (6° to 10°C)
Fluctuations in temperature put wine under stress and interrupt the maturing process. It is therefore very important to maintain a constant temperature.
30
Optimum temperature and air quality

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 switches itself off automati­cally.

Isolation plate for thermal separation

The wine unit comes with a fixed isola­tion plate that divides the interior of the unit into two separate temperature zones. This allows you to store different types of wine at the same time, e.g., red wine and Champagne. The isolation strips inside the glass door prevent the exchange of heat be­tween the individual zones.
- The temperature decreases.
- The temperature increases.
Touch the OK sensor to confirm your
selection
or
Wait approximately 5 seconds after
the last touch of a sensor.
The temperature being set will flash in the display.

Setting the temperature

The temperatures in the wine condition­ing zones can be set independently of one another.
Touch the sensor 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.
Use the two sensors underneath the
display to set the temperature.
By touching the sensor:
31
Optimum temperature and air quality
When you touch the sensors, you will see the following changes in the dis­play:
- With the first touch: The last temperature set flashes.
- Each subsequent touch: The temperature changes in 1° incre­ments.
- Keeping your finger on the sensor: The temperature changes continu­ously.
A negative tone will sound (if the sen­sor tone is switched on) when the lowest or highest possible tempera­ture is reached.
Approximately 5seconds after a sensor has last been touched, the current temperature inside the wine condition­ing zone is shown automatically.
When the temperature is altered, there is a short delay until the temperature selected is set.

Temperature range

In both zones, it is possible to set the temperature 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.
The temperature display in the control panel always shows the actual tem­perature.

Optimum temperature and air quality

Air quality and humidity

In most refrigerators, the humidity is too low for wine and therefore a refrigerator is not suitable for wine storage. High humidity levels are necessary when storing wine to moisturize corks from the outside. When the humidity is too low the corks dry out and the bottle is no longer tightly sealed. For this reason wine bottles should always be stored horizontally to ensure that corks are also moisturized from the inside. If air gets into the bottle, this will have a neg­ative impact on the wine.
Risk of damage caused by ex-
cess moisture. This will lead to condensation on the
interior walls, which can cause corro­sion damage.
Do not introduce additional moisture into the air, e.g., by placing a dish of water inside the wine conditioning unit.
Using DynaCool (constant humidity)
DynaCool raises the relative humidity inside the whole of the wine condition­ing unit. It also distributes the humidity and the temperature evenly around the interior so that you can store all your wine under the same excellent condi­tions. This will create a stable climate in the unit which imitates that of a wine cel­lar.

Switching on DynaCool

If you would like to use the wine condi­tioning unit to store wine over the long term, we recommend that you keep the DynaCool function switched on.
Touch the sensor to switch the Dyna-
Cool function on/off. The sensor will be highlighted in yellow.
Even if DynaCool has not been switched on, the fans in the wine con­ditioning unit will come on automati­cally as soon as the cooling system switches on. This ensures the opti­mum climate for your wine is main­tained.
The fans automatically switch off when the appliance door is open.
33
Optimum temperature and air quality

Switching off DynaCool

The wine conditioning unit uses slightly more energy and is a little noisier when the DynaCool function is switched on. You can switch it off now and then if you wish.
Touch the On/Off sensor of the Dyna-
Cool function so that it is no longer highlighted in yellow.

Air filtration with the Active AirClean filter

The Active AirClean filter achieves opti­mum air quality by filtering the incoming air.
Fresh air from the room enters the ap­pliance via the Active AirClean filter. The fans (DynaCool function) then dis­tribute the air evenly throughout the wine conditioning unit. Filtering the incoming air through the Active AirClean filter ensures that all air entering the appliance is fresh and free from dust and odors. This also ensures your wine does not absorb any unwanted odors through the corks.
Replace the Active AirClean filter regu­larly. Thesymbol will appear in the display to remind you (see “Active Air­Clean filter”).
34

Temperature and door alarm

The appliance is equipped with an alarm system so that the temperature cannot rise or fall unnoticed, which could possibly damage the wine.

Temperature alarm

If the temperature in one of the wine conditioning zones rises or falls by a certain amount, the sensor for that zone will flash in the control panel and at the same time the alarm symbol will flash in the display. An alarm will also sound.
The audio and visual signals are trig­gered, for example:
- when the wine unit is switched on and the temperature in one of the temperature zones differs greatly from the set temperature,
- when too much warm ambient air en­ters the cabinet when bottles are be­ing rearranged or taken out;
- when a large number of bottles are stored for the first time,

Switching the temperature alarm off early

If the acoustic alarm disturbs you, it can be switched off.
Touch the sensor to turn off the tem-
perature alarm.
The alarm will stop. The relevant wine conditioning zone will continue to flash in the control panel and the alarm symbol will continue to flash in the display until the cause of the alarm has been rectified.
- after a power outage.
The alarm will stop and the alarm sym­bolgoes out as soon as the temper­ature has dropped to the correct level again. The sensor for the relevant zone will light up constantly again.

If the lighting cover is defective, do not look from a close range directly into the lighting with optical instru­ments (e.g., magnifying glass or simi­lar).

Storing wine bottles

Vibration and movement have a nega­tive effect on the maturing process which can in turn affect the taste of the wine.
To avoid disturbing other bottles when removing a bottle of wine, store bottles of the same type beside each other on the same shelf. Avoid stacking bottles on top of one another on the wooden shelves.
Always place the bottles in a horizontal position so that the natural corks can be kept moist on the inside and air is prevented from getting into the bottles.
Tip: We also recommend increasing the humidity level inside the wine condition­ing unit for wine bottles with natural corks (see “Using DynaCool (con­stant humidity)” under “Optimum tem­perature and air quality”).
Risk of injury from falling wine
bottles. Wine bottles may become wedged in
the wooden shelves above and fall out of the wine conditioning unit when the shelves are pulled out.
Always pull out the wooden shelves slowly and carefully.
Risk of damage and injury from
broken glass. If wooden shelves and bottles pro-
trude too far forwards, they will dam­age the glass door when it is closed.
Please ensure that the wooden shelves and wine bottles do not pro­trude.
Do not cover the vents in the rear wall, as they are essential for keeping the appliance cool.

Frequently asked questions

General problems with the wine conditioning unit

Problem Possible cause and solution
An alarm does not sound even though the appliance door has been open for a long time.
The wine conditioning unit cannot be switched off.
The slats on the wooden shelves are warping.
Bacteria has begun to form on the wine bottle labels.
A white deposit has formed on the wine bot­tle corks.
This is not a fault. The alarm tone has been switched off in settings mode (see “Acoustic sig­nals” under “Selecting additional settings”).
The safety lock has been activated. Completely deactivate the safety lock (see “Acti-
vating and deactivating the safety lock” under “Selecting additional settings”).
Volume change due to moisture absorption or drying out is a typical characteristic of wood. An increase in humidity will cause wooden components to warp, which can lead to cracking. Knots and wavy grain are characteristic for wood and cannot be avoided.
Bacteria may form on the labels, depending on the type of label adhesive used.
Clean the wine bottles and remove any adhesive
residue.
The corks have oxidized due to contact with the air. Use a dry cloth to wipe off the deposit. The de-
posit will not affect the quality of the wine.

tioning unit into the niche.

Pushing the wine conditioning unit into the niche

To avoid damaging the wine condi­tioning unit, the ventilation grille must be positioned precisely in front of the vent outlet! If you wish to fit a trim across the bottom of the wine condi­tioning unit, make sure it provides adequate ventilation.
The filler panel must be made exactly to measure.
Secure the bracketto the back of
filler panel.
Pull the wine conditioning unit as far
as you need to out of the niche so that you can tilt it towards you.
Loosely screw the bracket with the
filler panel to the wine conditioning unit.
Make sure that the power cord does not become trapped or damaged as you push the wine conditioning unit into its installation space. To avoid damage to the flooring which is susceptible to scratching, take great care when pushing the ap­pliance into the niche.
Push the appliance into the niche un-
til the front of the appliance door is flush with surrounding furniture doors.
Pull the wine conditioning unit for-
ward so that it stands proud of the furniture doors evenly by 1/16" (2mm).

Electrical connection

Connect this appliance to a 110 – 120 VAC, 60 Hz and 15 amp (20 amp for side-by-side) circuit with a circuit breaker or fuse.
This appliance is equipped with a three­prong grounding plug to prevent shock hazards. It should be plugged directly into a properly grounded outlet. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the plug. If the plug does not fit the out­let, have the proper outlet installed by a licensed electrician. Do not use exten­sion cords or ungrounded (two prong) adapters.
The outlet must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly dis­connected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor may result in elec­tric shock. If you are in any doubt as to whether the appliance has been prop­erly grounded, have the appliance checked by a qualified electrician or service technician. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be danger­ous. The manufacturer will not be held responsible for damage or injury arising from unauthorized work. Before installing the appliance, verify that the voltage, load and circuit rating information found on the data plate match the household electrical supply. 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.
The plug and power cord must not come into contact with the back of the appliance as vibrations can cause dam­age to these components. This, in turn, could result in a short circuit.
Do not plug in other appliances behind this wine conditioning unit.
Do not use an extension cord to con­nect the appliance to the power supply. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (danger of overheating, for example).
Do not connect the appliance to an in­verter such as those used with an au­tonomous energy source e.g. solar power. When switched on, peak loads in the system can cause the safety switch-off mechanism to be triggered. This can damage the electronic unit. The appliance must not be used with so-called energy-saving devices ei­ther. These reduce the amount of en­ergy supplied to the appliance, causing it to overheat.
If the power cord needs to be replaced, this must be done by a qualified techni­cian.
