Repairs to electrical appliances
should 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.
What to do if...
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
^ Make sure that the temperature dial
is not pointing to the "0" position.
^ Check that the plug is correctly
inserted in the socket and switched
on.
^ Check that the fuse is not defective
and that the mains fuse has not
blown. If it has, contact the Miele Ser-
vice Department.
. . . the door will not open because it
has been opened and closed too
many times in succession.
This is not a fault. The suction caused
by opening and closing the door is
preventing the door from opening. Wait
a few minutes and then try again. It
should now open without force.
. . . the temperature is too low.
^
Turn the temperature dial to a setting
closer to "1".
^
The Super freeze function has not
been switched off. The indicator light
is still on.
. . . the appliance 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 fresh
food has been put in at once for
freezing.
^
Check that the door has been closed
properly.
^
Check to see whether a thick layer of
ice has built up. If it has, then the
freezer will need defrosting.
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm
indicator light flashes.
The temperature has risen above the
setting on the temperature dial because
^ the door has been opened too
frequently, or large amounts of fresh
food have been put in at once for
freezing.
^
there has been a lengthy interruption
to the power supply.
^
the ventilation gaps are blocked.
Once the problem has been resolved
the alarm indicator light will go out and
the alarm will stop.
. . . the alarm indicator light and the
-15 °C temperature display are both
flashing at the same time.
There is a fault. Call the Service
Department.
