Installation

Fire risk and danger of damage

from appliances which give off heat.
Appliances which give off heat can
catch fire and set fire to the
refrigeration appliance.
Do not place appliances which give
off heat, such as mini-ovens, double
burner hobs or toasters on the
refrigeration appliance.

Fire risk and danger of damage

from open flames!
Open flames can set fire to the
refrigeration appliance.
Keep open flames (e.g. a candle)
away from the refrigeration
appliance.

Side-by-side installation

Risk of damage due to

condensation on the external
appliance panels.
In environments with high humidity,
condensation can build up on
external appliance panels, which can
cause corrosion.
Do not place different refrigeration
appliance models directly next to
one another.

However, your appliance can be part of
a “side-by-side” installation because it
is equipped with built-in heating units in
the side panels.

Please contact Miele for information on
which combinations are suitable for
your appliance.

Location

This appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.

When deciding where to install your
appliance please bear in mind that it will
use more energy if installed near a
heater, cooktop or other appliance that
gives off heat. Direct sunlight should
also be avoided.
The higher the room temperature, the
longer the compressor will run and the
higher the energy consumption will be.

When installing the appliance, please
note:

- The mains socket must not be

located directly behind the appliance
and must be easily accessible.

- The plug and cable must not touch

the rear of the appliance as they
could be damaged by vibrations from
the appliance.

- Nor should other appliances be

plugged into a socket located directly
behind this appliance.
