Cleaning and care
Appliance front
Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
The front finish (CleanSteel) will be
damaged.
Do not use a stainless steel clean-
ing agent on this surface.
The appliance front has a high quality,
special finish (CleanSteel). It is resistant
to soiling and is very easy to clean.
Cleaning the ventilation grille
A build-up of dust will increase the en-
ergy consumption of the appliance.
The ventilation grille should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (e.g. use the
dusting brush for Miele vacuum
cleaners).
Tip: If you want to be reminded auto-
matically every 12 months, switch the
"Clean ventilation grille" reminder on
(see "Selecting further settings – Clean
ventilation grille reminder").
Cleaning the door seal
If the door seal is damaged or has
slipped out of its groove, the door
will not close properly and cooling
performance will be reduced. Con-
densate will build up in the interior
and this can cause a build-up of ice.
Do not damage the door seal and
ensure it does not slip out of its
groove.

Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
If you treat the door seal with oils or
grease, it can become porous.
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seal.
The door seal should be cleaned reg-
ularly with clean water and then
wiped dry with a cloth.
Starting up the appliance after
cleaning
Slide all shelves back into the appli-
ance.
Reconnect to the mains and switch
the appliance back on.
Switch on the Super freeze function
for a while so that the freezer section
can cool down quickly.
Once the temperature in the freezer
has reached the required temperat-
ure, place the food back in the freezer
drawers and put them back in the
freezer. Then close the appliance
door.
Switch off the Super freeze function
as soon as the temperature in the
freezer is a constant -18 °C or colder.
