Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in accordance with local and
national safety regulations.
Unauthorised repairs could be
dangerous.
The following can be corrected without
contacting the Miele Service
Department:
What to do if . . .
. . . strange noises can be heard after
switching on the appliance,
especially after it has just been
installed.
^ Check to see whether any pieces of
furniture next to the appliance are
vibrating whilst the appliance is in
operation.
Switch the appliance off then:
^
Check whether the appliance is
aligned correctly.
^
Check whether all parts at the rear of
the appliance are free from
hinderance. Remove any hinderance.
^
Check whether the cable clips were
unclipped from the back of the
appliance before installation. They
could vibrate when the appliance is
operating.
^
Are all removable parts securely
located in the appliance?
^
Are bottles or containers touching
each other?
Remember that the noise of the
compressor and the coolant circulating
in the system is unavoidable.
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
^
Make sure the temperature selector is
not set at "0".
^
Check that the plug is correctly
inserted in the socket.
^
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 temperature in the refrigerator
is too low.
^ Turn the temperature selector to a
setting closer to "0".
^ Check that the freezer compartment
door is closed properly.
^ Has a large abount of fresh food
been put in at once for freezing?
This makes the compressor run for
longer causing the temperature in the
refrigerator to fall automatically. No
more that 2 kg of fresh food should
be frozen at one time.
. . . the appliance is switching in too
frequently and for too long.
^
Check whether ventilation gaps in the
plinth and in the housing unit at the
top have been covered over or
become too dusty.
^
The appliance door and the freezer
compartment door have been
opened too frequenly, or large
amounts of fresh food have been put
in at once for freezing.
