Cleaning and care

Cleaning the door seals
If a door seal is damaged or if it
has come out of the groove, the door
will not close properly and cooling
performance will be reduced.
Condensate will build up in the
interior and this can cause a build-up
of ice.
Do not damage the door seals and
ensure that they do not come out of
their groove.
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become
porous over time.
The door seals should be cleaned
regularly with clean water, and then
wiped dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the air vents
A build-up of dust will increase the
energy 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 dusting
brush, for example). A build-up of
dust will increase the energy
consumption of the appliance.
After cleaning
Slide all shelves back into the
appliance.
Close the appliance door.
Reconnect to the mains and switch
the appliance back on.
Switch on the SuperFreeze function
so that the freezer can cool down
quickly.
Once the freezer section has reached
the required temperature, place the
food back in the freezer drawers and
replace them in the freezer section.
When the temperature in the freezer
is a constant -18 °C or colder, press
the SuperFreeze sensor to switch the
SuperFreeze function off.
