Miele Kfn 9753 Id Operating And Installation Instructions

							Cooling drinks quickly
To cool drinks quickly, turn on the
Super function for the freezer. See
Super for more information.
Do not leave bottles in the freezer for
more than1 hour, closed containers
could burst.
Freezer tray
The freezer tray can be used to freeze
small items such as berries, herbs and
vegetables. They are frozen individually
and therefore maintain their shape
when defrosted.
^Load the items loosely onto the
freezer tray.
^Hang the tray on one of the upper
freezer drawers.
Allow 10 - 12 hours for the items to
freeze thoroughly. Then transfer them to
a suitable container or bag.
Cool pack
The cool pack prevents the
temperature in the freezer from rising
too quickly in the event of a power
failure.
Place the cool pack in the top freezer
drawer, directly on top of the food. The
pack will be at its most effective after
approx. 24 hours.
If there is a power failure the cool pack
will help keep food cold as long as
possible.
When placing fresh food in the freezer,
use the cool pack to separate the fresh
food from the already frozen food. This
will prevent the frozen food from
beginning to thaw.
Using the freezer efficiently

							Refrigerator section
The refrigerator defrosts automatically.
During normal operation, condensate
and frost can form on the rear wall of
the refrigerator and drawers.
You do not need to remove this
build-up, it will defrost and evaporate
automatically with the heat generated
by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an
evaporation system at the back of the
appliance.
Be sure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are kept clean and
are unblocked so that condensate
can flow away easily.
Freezer section
The freezer defrosts automatically.
The moisture generated in the
appliance collects on the condenser
and is automatically defrosted and
dissipated by the condenser from time
to time.
This automatic defrosting system
enables the freezer to remain
permanently ice-free, however the food
stored remains frozen.

							Moving the shelves
The shelves can be adjusted according
to the height of the food:
^Lift the shelf, pull it forwards slightly,
until the notch at the side is in line
with the shelf support. It can now be
moved up or down as desired.
The raised edge at the back of the shelf
must face upwards to prevent food
from touching the back of the
appliance.
Stops prevent the shelves from
unintentionally being pulled out too far.
Split shelf
To accommodate tall items such as tall
bottles or containers, one of the shelves
is divided. The front section can be
gently pushed under the rear section:
^Pull the front half of the glass shelf
forwards slightly, then slide it
carefully under the rear half.To move the split shelf:
^Remove both halves of the glass.
^Fit the brackets onto the support on
the left and right sides at the desired
height.
^Slide in the glass shelves one after
the other.
The glass shelf with the raised edge
should be placed at the back.
Fruit and vegetable drawers on
rollers
(depending on model)
The fruit and vegetable drawers are
mounted on rollers and can be pulled
out for loading, unloading and cleaning.
The roller inserts can also be removed

Universal container
Food can be stored as well as served in
the universal container.
The universal container consists of a
deep trayaand a shallow trayb. Both
trays can be fit into the stainless steel
frame.
^To use the universal container to
serve food, place the shallow trayb
in the stainless steel frame and use
the deep container as a lida.
Moving the divider
(depending on model)
The divider can be moved to the left or
right to ensure that bottles are held
securely in position when the door is
opened and closed.

Freezer: approx. 30 - 60 hours
(depending on the amount of food frozen).
The door is not closed. Check that the doors are closed properly.
A large amount of food is being
frozen at the same time.This makes the compressor run longer,
causing the temperature in the freezer section
to fall automatically.
The freezer section is too warm.
The room temperature is lower
than the ambient temperature for
which the appliance is designed.Raise the temperature of the room.
Operating the appliance in a room that is too
cold will cause the cooling system to turn off
