Replacing the carbon filters (optional
accessories)
Replace the carbon filters in the holder
around every 6 months.
The
symbol on the status display re-
minds you that the carbon filter needs
to be changed.
Replacement KKF-RF carbon filters
can be obtained from Miele Customer
Service, from your dealer, or from
Miele’s website.
Pull the carbon filter holder upward to
remove it from the adjustable shelf.
Remove both carbon filters and place
the new filters with the surrounding
edge pointing downward in the
holder.
Place the holder in the middle of the
protective strip at the back of the ad-
justable shelf so that it clicks into po-
sition.
Touch the
symbol on the display
to confirm that the filters have been
replaced.
The “Replace carbon filter” reminder
will go out on the display and the
counter will be reset.
The
symbol will go out on the status
display.
Cleaning the door seal
Risk of damage as a result of in-
correct cleaning.
If you treat the door seal with oil or
grease, it can become porous.
Do not use oil or grease on the door
seal.
The door seals should be cleaned
regularly with clean water, and then
wiped dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the ventilation gaps
A build-up of dust will increase the en-
ergy consumption of the appliance.
The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner (you could
use a Miele Vacuum Cleaner dust
brush, for example).
