Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with local and
national safety regulations. Repairs
and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable
for unauthorised work.
Some minor problems can be corrected
without contacting the Miele Service
Department.
What to do if . . .
. . . the appliance does not get cold.
^ Check whether the appliance has
been switched on. The mains
indicator light must be lit up.
^ 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 selector 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 whether a thick layer of ice
has built up. If it has, then the
appliance will need defrosting.
. . . the temperature indicator light is
on?
The temperature in the freezer has
become too warm 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.
The temperature indicator light will go
out when the temperature in the freezer
is cold enough.
