Aluminum Frames; Ice Cube Container; Drip Tray - Miele F 1471 Vi Operating And Installation Manual

Cleaning and care

Aluminum frames

The frames of the door bins and
shelves are made of aluminum.
^ Clean with a mild solution of warm
water and liquid dish soap.
Aluminum is susceptible to
scratches and nicks, treat with care.
The aluminum frames may become
discolored or otherwise altered if
soiling is not cleaned away
promptly.
Do not use stainless steel cleaners;
lime removers; scouring pads, such
as pot scrubbers; or used sponges
that still contain abrasive cleanser
residue to clean the frames.

Ice cube container

^ Pull out the ice cube container.
^ Empty and clean the ice cube
container with lukewarm water.
^ Thoroughly dry the container and the
anti-clumping screw to prevent new
ice cubes from sticking.
^ To re-insert push the ice cube
container all the way back onto the
supports until it locks into position.
^ If the container cannot be pushed all
the way back, twist the anti-clumping
screw in the container.

Drip tray

The drip tray collects excess water.
As soon as the drip tray is full, the "lock"
button on the Ice/Water dispenser
control panel will flash. A sensor
located in the drip tray detects when
the drip tray is full.
The drip tray must be emptied and
cleaned. However, to prevent odors,
the drip tray should be cleaned daily.
When the "lock" button flashes yellow:
^ Remove the drip tray cover.
^ Empty and clean the drip tray using a
sponge or kitchen towel.
^ Replace the tray cover.
The "lock" button is now white again.
