Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety

The refrigerant circuit has been checked for leaks. The
refrigeration appliance complies with all current local and national
safety requirements.

This refrigeration 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 has a lower
greenhouse effect than some other refrigerants.
The use of this coolant, however, leads 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. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but it does not
affect the performance of the refrigeration appliance.
When transporting and installing the refrigeration appliance, ensure
that no parts of the cooling circuit are damaged. Leaking refrigerant
can damage the eyes.
In the event of any damage:
– avoid any flames or anything which creates a spark
– disconnect the refrigeration appliance from the mains electricity
supply
– ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several
minutes, and
– call Miele.

The more coolant there is in a refrigeration appliance, the larger
the room should be in which it is installed. In the event of a leakage,
if the appliance is in a small room, there is a danger of combustible
gases building up. For every 11 g of coolant at least 1 m
space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated
on a data plate inside the appliance.
