Warning and Safety instructions
8
The more coolant there is in a refrigeration appliance, the larger
the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the ap-
pliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases
building up. For every 11 g of coolant at least 1 m
3
of room space is
required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the
connection data (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) on the data
plate corresponds to the household supply.
Check that this is the case before connecting the appliance. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re-
quirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installa-
tion tested by a qualified electrician.
Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
If the connection cable supplied is damaged it must only be re-
placed by an original spare part to protect the user from danger.
Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance if original spare
parts are used.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a
multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and
do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
If moisture gets into electrical components or into the mains con-
nection cable, it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not oper-
ate this refrigeration appliance in areas which are exposed to mois-
ture (e.g in a garage or utility room).
This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
