Repair work to electrical appliances
must only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with
current local and national safety
regulations. Repairs and other work
by unqualified persons could be
dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work.
Please note that a call-out charge will
be applied for unnecessary service
visits where the problem could have
been rectified as described in these
operating instructions.
What to do if. . .
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
^
Check whether the appliance has
been switched on. If it is switched on,
the access sensor will light up in the
display.
^
Check that the plug is correctly
inserted into the socket and switched
on.
^
The mains fuse has tripped because
the refrigerator, mains voltage or
another appliance is defective.
Contact a qualified electrician or
Miele.
^
Check the temperature settings.
. . . the temperature in the refrigerator
is too low.
^
Increase the temperature.
^
Switch off the SuperCool function if
this is switched on.
^
Check that the appliance door has
been closed properly.
. . . the compressor is switching in
too frequently and for too long.
^
Check whether the ventilation gaps in
the plinth and in the housing unit at
the top have been covered over or
become too dusty.
^
The door has been opened too
frequently, or a large amount of food
has just been put in at once.
^
Check that the appliance door has
been closed properly.
. . . the compressor runs
continuously.
To save energy, the compressor runs at
a lower speed, but for longer, when
less cooling is required. In this case,
the motor runs for longer.
. . . the alarm sounds.
Has the appliance door been open for
longer than 5 minutes?
^
Close the door.
