Switching Off For Longer Periods Of Time - Miele KT 4353 SD ed Operating And Installation Manual

The stainless steel surface has a layer
of protective foil to prevent scratching
during transportation.
^ Do not remove this foil until the
appliance has been installed or built
in. Start at one of the upper corners.
^ Clean the inside of the appliance and
the accessories with warm water and
a little washing up liquid, and then
dry with a soft cloth.
Important:
To ensure correct functioning of the
appliance, let it stand for between
1/2 and 1 hour after transporting it to
its final location before connecting it
to the mains.
^ Plug in and switch on at the wall
socket.
^ Turn the temperature selector in a
clockwise direction away from "0".
The appliance begins to cool down,
and the temperature required for the
refrigerator shows in the temperature
display. The interior light for the
refrigerator comes on when the door is
opened.
Allow the appliance to run for a few
hours before placing food in it. This will
ensure that the temperature is
sufficiently low.
^ Turn the temperature selector back to
"0".
The cooling system and the interior light
are now switched off.
If the appliance is not going to be used
for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst
on holiday,
^ switch the appliance off at the mains,
^ withdraw the plug,
^ defrost the freezer section,
^ clean the appliance out and
^ leave the doors ajar to air the
appliance.
If, during a long absence, the
appliance is switched off but not
cleaned out and the doors are left
shut, there is a danger of mould and
odours building up inside the
appliance.
