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.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
appliance until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
Some minor problems can be corrected
without contacting the Miele Service
Department.
What to do if . . .
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
^ Check whether the appliance has
been switched on. The temperature
display 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 appliance is switching in too
frequently and for too long.
^
Check whether the ventilation gaps
have been covered over or become
too dusty.
^
Check whether the metal grille (heat
exchanger) at the back of the
appliance has become too dusty.
^
Check whether the appliance door is
being opened frequently.
^
Check that the door has been closed
properly.
. . . the alarm sounds and the
temperature display flashes.
^
Has the appliance been switched on
for the first time?
If not, then the temperature inside the
appliance is higher or lower than the
temperature that has been set. This
could be due to:
^ the appliance door being opened too
often.
^ a blocked ventilation gap.
^ a lengthy interruption to the power
supply.
Once the problem has been resolved
the temperature display will light up
constantly and the alarm will stop.
. . . a bar is lit up or flashing in the
temperature display.
Only temperatures within the range the
appliance can display will be shown. If
the temperature is not within this range,
a bar will be displayed instead.
. . . "F1" or "FU" appears in the
temperature display.
There is a fault. Call the Service
Department.
. . . you cannot switch the appliance
off.
The safety lock has been activated.
