Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a suit-
ably qualified and competent person
in accordance with local and na-
tional safety regulations. Unauthor-
ised repairs could be dangerous.
The following can be corrected without
contacting the Miele Service Depart-
ment:
^ Check to see whether any pieces of
furniture next to the appliance are vi-
brating whilst the appliance is in op-
eration.
Switch the appliance off then:
^ Check whether the appliance is
aligned correctly.
^ Are all removable parts securely lo-
cated in the appliance?
Remember that the noise of the com-
pressor and the coolant circulating in
the system is unavoidable.
^ Check that the appliance is switched
on.
^ Check that the plug is correctly in-
serted in the socket.
^ Check that the fuse is not defective
and that the mains fuse has not
blown. If it has contact the Miele Ser-
vice Department.

^ Select a higher temperature.
^ The super freeze function has not
been switched off. The indicator light
is still on.
^ Check whether the ventilation gap
has been covered over or become
too dusty.
^ The freezer lid has been opened too
frequently, or a large quantity of fresh
food has been put in at once for
freezing.
^ Check that the lid has been properly
closed.
^ Check whether a thick layer of ice
has built up. If it has then the freezer
will need defrosting.
^ This could be because the lid been
left open for more than 120 seconds.
If this is not the case, then the cause is
a rise in the temperaure above the tem-
perature selector setting due to:
^ the door being opened too frequently
or large amounts of fresh food being
put in at once for freezing.
^ a power cut which lasted for a long
time.
^ a blocked ventilation gap.
Once the problem has been resolved
the temperature display will light up
constantly and the alarm will stop.
