Before using for the first time
Protective foil
The stainless steel trim to the interior
shelves and the door shelves has a
layer of protective foil to prevent
damage during transportation.
On stainless steel appliances, the outer
surfaces are also covered with
protective foil.
^
Do not remove the foil until the
appliance has been positioned in its
final location.
Cleaning and care
^ Treat the stainless steel trim to the
interior shelves and the door shelves
with the Miele stainless steel
conditioning agent supplied as soon
as you have removed the foil.
^ On stainless steel appliances also
treat the side panels with the Miele
stainless steel conditioning agent
supplied as soon as you have
removed the protective foil. The
appliance doors have a special finish
which is resistant to soiling. Do not
use Miele stainless steel conditioning
agent on the appliance doors.
Important. Miele stainless steel
conditioning agent provides a
protective coating which helps
prevent resoiling.

Clean the inside of the appliance and
the accessories with lukewarm water
and a little washing up liquid, and then
dry with a soft cloth.
Switching on
The refrigerator and freezer sections are
switched on together by pressing the
master switch on the right hand side of

^
Press the master switch on the right

The temperature display for the
refrigerator section will show the

the correct temperature for freezing.
The appliance will start cooling down
and the interior light in the refrigerator
section will come on if you open the
door.
To enable the temperature to get
sufficiently cold inside the
appliance, allow the appliance to
run for a few hours before placing
food in it.
