Possible cause and remedy
The food packaging was not dry when loaded in the
freezer.
 Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon handle or
plastic scraper, to prise it apart carefully.
This is not a fault. The suction caused by opening
and closing the door is preventing the door from
opening. Wait approx. 1 minute and then try again. It
should now open without force.
The door alarm has been activated.
 Close the appliance door. The alarm will stop.
The indicator light flashes several times every
5 seconds.
A fault has occurred.
 Call Miele.
The indicator light flashes regularly every
15 seconds.
Not a fault. This flashing is normal.
This is not a fault. The heat which results from the
cooling process is used to avoid the build-up of
condensation on the appliance.
No tools are required to change the door seal.
 Change the door seal. A replacement is available
from Miele.
