Before using for the first time
Stainless steel surfaces and the
stainless steel trim to the interior
shelves and the door shelves have a
layer of protective foil to prevent
damage during transportation. Please
remove this carefully after installation.
^
After removing the protective foil
external surfaces should be wiped
over with a suitable stainless steel
conditioning agent. This can be
purchased from
www.miele-shop.com.
Important: A stainless steel
conditioner gives long lasting
protection, and helps to prevent
resoiling.
^
Clean the inside of the appliance and
the accessories with lukewarm 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
^
Press the On/Off button. The
temperature display will light up.
The appliance begins to cool down,
and the temperature required shows in
the temperature display.
The interior light will come on when the
door is opened.
Switching off
^
Press the On/Off button. The
temperature display will go out.
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,
there is a danger of mould and
odours building up inside the
appliance.
