. . . the frozen food thaws because it
is too warm in the freezer section?
^
Did the room temperature drop below
that for which the appliance was
designed?
Increase the room temperature.
The compressor will run less often if the
room temperature is too low. Therefore
it may become too warm in the freezer
section.
. . . food has frozen to the freezer
floor or walls?
Use a blunt instrument (such as a
spoon handle) to carefully pry the items
off.
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm
off button is flashing?
A temperature section is too warm
because, for instance,
^ the appliance door has been opened
frequently, or a large amount of fresh
food has been put in all at once for
freezing.
^
the ventilation slits are blocked.
When the problems have been solved,
the alarm and the displays go out.
. . . bars light up in the temperature
displays?
Check the temperature display approx.
6 hours after the appliance has been
switched on. Only temperatures within
the range the appliance can display will
be shown.
..."_F" appears in the temperature
display?
This indicates a problem. Call
Customer Service.
. . . the active charcoal filter change
display lights up red?
^
Change the active charcoal filters.
If necessary, order replacement filters
from your Miele dealer.
..."nA" appears in the temperature
display?
The temperature has risen too high at
some point during the past few hours or
days because of a power outage.
^ While "nA" is illuminated, press the
audio alarm off button.
The temperature display will show the
warmest temperature recorded in the
freezer section during the power
outage.
Depending on the temperature, check
to see whether the food in the freezer
thawed partially or completely. If that is
the case, cook the food before
refreezing it.
The warmest recorded temperature will
appear in the display for approx.
1 minute. Then the display will revert to
the actual current temperature in the
freezer section.
