Problem solving guide
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm
indicator light flashes.
The temperature in the freezer is too
warm, because
^ a large amount of food has been
frozen at once without switching on
the SuperFreeze function.
The alarm will stop and the indicator
light will go out when the temperature
has reached the correct level again.
^ the compressor is faulty. Call Miele.
Depending on the temperature in the
freezer, you should check the condition
of the food. If food has defrosted or
started to defrost, check that it is still
safe to use, and if so, use it as quickly
as possible. Defrosted food may only
be refrozen after it has been cooked.
. . . the SuperFreeze indicator light
and the temperature display are both
flashing at the same time.
There is a fault. Call Miele.
. . . the SuperFreeze indicator light
does not light up, even though the
appliance is working.
^ The indicator light is defective. Call
Miele.
. . . there is a build-up of frost on the
front panel of the Frost free system.
This is not a fault. Droplets of
condensate have settled on it and
frozen. This may have been caused by
one of the following:
^ The appliance door has been
opened frequently or left open for a
while.
28
^ A large quantity of fresh food has
been placed in the appliance at
once.
^ There has been an increase in the
humidity in the room.
Keep the door closed as much as
possible so that the Frost Free system
has a chance to melt the ice
automatically. This may take several
days.
. . . food has frozen together.
Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon
handle or plastic scraper, to prise it
apart carefully.
If you still cannot remedy the fault
having followed these suggestions,
please contact Miele.
To prevent unnecessary loss of
temperature, it is advisable not to
open the door while waiting for the
appliance to be serviced.
