Before placing food in the freezer
section
^When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
freeze function for some time before
placing the food in the freezer (see
Super freeze).
This also helps to prevent food that is
already in the freezer from starting to
defrost.
Placing food in the freezer
Food to be frozen can be placed
anywhere in the freezer.
Large quantities can be placed directly
on the glass cold plate to freeze the
food quickly. To do this first take out
one or more of the...

Defrosting
Frozen food can be defrosted in
different ways:
–in a microwave oven,
–in an oven using the Fan or
Defrost setting,
–at room temperature,
–in the refrigerator (the cold given off
by the frozen food helps to keep the
other food cold),
–in a steam oven.
PoultryIt is particularly important to
observe food hygiene rules when
defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid
from defrosted poultry. Pour it away
and wash the container it was in, the
sink and your hands. Danger of
salmonella poisoning....

Freezer tray
The freezer tray is useful for freezing
small items such as berries, herbs and
vegetables. They can be frozen
individually and therefore maintain their
shape when defrosted.
^Space the food out loosely on the
tray.
^Hang the tray in the top freezer
drawer.
Leave the food for 10-12 hours to
freeze thoroughly on the tray. Transfer it
to a freezer bag or suitable container
once frozen. Place the bag or container
in the freezer drawer.

Refrigerator and PerfectFresh
zone
The refrigerator and the PerfectFresh
zone defrost automatically.
Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the refrigerator section
and the PerfectFresh zone whilst in use.
You do not need to remove this, as it
will defrost and evaporate automatically
with the warmth generated by the
refrigerator.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain...

To speed up defrosting, two bowls of
hot water (not boiling) with plates
underneath them can be placed in the
appliance. Closing the door in this
instance will help retain warmth and
speed up the defrosting process.
We do not recommend the use of
hot air blowers such as hairdryers
for defrosting your freezer.
Never place electric heaters or
candles in the appliance to defrost
it. These can damage the plastic
parts.
Do not use defrosting sprays or
de-icers, as they could contain
substances which may...

Never use cleaning agents
containing abrasive substances
such as sand, soda, acids chlorides
or chemical solvents.
Non-abrasive cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
To help prevent re-soiling, treat
stainless steel surfaces with a
proprietary conditioning agent for
stainless steel (available from the
Miele Spare Parts Department or via
the internet on www.miele.co. uk).
Do not let water get into the
electronic unit or into the light.
Do not let water get into the...

^Clean stainless steel surfaces with a
suitable, non-abrasive, proprietary
stainless steel cleaning agent,
following the manufacturer’s
instructions on the packaging.
^After cleaning, stainless steel
surfaces should always be treated
with a conditioning agent for stainless
steel.
It is important to do this every time
the stainless steel surfaces are
cleaned, as the stainless steel
conditioner protects the surfaces
and helps prevent re-soiling.
Ventilation gaps
^The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a...

Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person in strict accordance with
current 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 that current is not supplied to
the appliance until after
maintenance or repair work has
been carried out.
What to do if...
. . . the refrigerator section or freezer
section does not get cold....

. . . the compressor 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 doors have been opened too
frequently, or a large amount of fresh
food has been put in at once for
freezing.
^Check that the doors have been
closed properly.
^Check to see whether a thick layer of
ice has built up in the freezer. If it
has, then the freezer section will
