Before using for the first time
The stainless steel surface and the
stainless steel trim on the shelves 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. Start at one of the upper corners.
^
Wipe stainless steel surfaces over
with a suitable proprietary
conditioning agent for stainless steel,
such as Neoblank (available from the
Miele UK Spare Parts Department).
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions
and apply with an even pressure in
the direction of the grain.
^
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 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.
Switching on
^
Using a coin, turn the On/Off dial in a
clockwise direction away from the "0"
position until the temperature display
lights up.
Forcing it beyond its range will
damage it. Turn it only as far as it will
go, then turn it back again.
The appliance begins to cool down,
and the temperature required for the
refrigerator shows in the temperature
display. The interior light will come on
when the door is opened.
Switching off
^
Using a coin, turn the On/Off dial in
an anti-clockwise direction back to
the "0" position.
All the indicator lights go out and the
cooling system is switched off.
Switching off for longer
periods of time
If the appliance is not going to be used
for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst
on holiday,
^
switch the appliance off,
^
switch off at the wall socket and
withdraw the plug,
^
clean the appliance out and
^
leave the door ajar to air the
appliance.
If, during a long absence, the
appliance is switched off but not
cleaned out and the door is left shut,
mould and odours are likely to build
up inside the appliance.
