Switching on and off

Before using for the first time
The stainless steel external and internal
surfaces of the appliance have a layer
of protective foil to prevent scratching
during transportation.
^ Do not remove this foil until the
appliance has been installed or built in.
^ After removing the protective foil, treat
stainless steel surfaces with a suitable
stainless steel conditioning agent
(available from www.miele-shop.com).
Important: Stainless steel
conditioner gives long lasting
protection, and helps to prevent
resoiling.
^ Clean the inside of the appliance and
the accessories with lukewarm water
and a little washing-up liquid, and
then dry with a soft cloth.
Important:
To ensure the correct functioning of
the appliance, let it stand for
between 1½ and 2 hours after
transporting it to its final location
before connecting it to the mains.
Active charcoal filters
(Active AirClean filters)
^ Place the active charcoal filters
supplied in the holder, and place the
holder on one of the refrigerator
shelves (see "Active charcoal filters").

Switching on

The refrigerator and freezer sections
are switched on together with the
On/Off sensor.
^ Touch the On/Off sensor until the
temperature display lights up.
The temperature display for the
refrigerator section will show the current
temperature in the refrigerator section.
If the temperature in the freezer section
is above 0 °C, only bars will light up in
the temperature display for the freezer
section. As soon as the temperature is
below 0 °C, the temperature display for
the freezer section will show the current
temperature in the freezer section.
The "Freezer" symbol and the Alarm off
sensor will flash until the temperature in
the freezer section has cooled down to
the correct temperature for freezing.
The appliance will start to cool, and the
interior lighting will come on when the
refrigerator section door is opened.
To enable the temperature to get
sufficiently cold inside the
appliance, allow the appliance to
run for a few hours before placing
food in it.
Do not place food in the freezer
section until the temperature is at
least -18°C.
