							To avoid a hazard due to instability
of the appliance, it must beinstalled
in accordance withthese
instructions.
Location
The appliance should be installed in a
dry, well ventilated room. The room
temperature should not go above or
below the climate range for which the
appliance is designed. The higher the
ambient temperature of the room, the
more energy the appliance requires to
operate.
It should not be installed where it is
exposed to direct sunlight or directly
adjacent to a heat-producing appliance
such as an oven or a radiator.
Climate range
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges (ambient
temperatures) and should not be used
outside this range. The climate range of
the appliance is stated on the data
plate inside the appliance.
Climate range Ambient room

+16°C to +32°C
+16°C to +38°C
+16°C to +43°C
+10°C to +38°C
+10°C to +43°C
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the cooling system to switch
off for too long, causing the internal
temperature in the appliance to risewith the risk of food deteriorating and
going off or frozen food defrosting.
Ventilation
Air at the back of the appliance gets
warm. The appliance housing unit must
be constructed to allow sufficient space
for ventilation.
A ventilation gap of at least 38 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.The air
inlet to the appliance is via the plinth in
the housing unit.
The cross-section of the air inlet and
outlet must be at least 200 cm
2to
ensure that air can circulate without
hindrance. Otherwise the appliance has
to work harder, resulting in an increase
in electricity consumption.
The air inlet and outlet must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They should be dusted on a regular
basis.
Installation

							Before installation
^Before installation, remove the cover
strip, sealing strip and other
accessories from the appliance and
from the external rear wall of the
appliance.
^On no account should the spacers
be removed from the back of the
appliance. These ensure the gap
required between the back of the
appliance and the wall is maintained.
^Remove any cable clips from the rear
of the appliance.
^Check that all parts at the back of the
appliance are unhindered. Carefully
remove any hindrance.
Does your old appliance have
a different hinging
mechanism?
If your old appliance had a different
type of hinging, the furniture door can
still be used. Remove the old hinges
from the housing unit. They are no
longer required because the furniture
door is now fitted to the appliance door.
All the necessary parts are supplied or
can be ordered from the Miele Spare
Parts Department.

							The door hinges are set ex-works to
enable the doors to be opened wide.
However, if the opening angle of the
doors needs to be limited for any
reason, the hinges can be adjusted to
accommodate this.
–For example, if the appliance doors
hit an adjacent wall when opened,
the opening angle can be limited to
90°.
^Place the locking pins supplied for
limiting the door opening into the
hinges from above.
The door opening angle is now limited
to 90°.–If you would like the appliance doors
to be cushioned so that they open
more softly, the spring tension on the
doors can be adjusted.
To do this, use the allen key supplied to
adjust the door hinges.
aTo reduce the opening angle:
^
Turn the allen key clockwise.
This tightens the hinges and makes it
harder to open the door wide.
bTo open the door
fully:
^
Turn the allen key anticlockwise.
