This appliance complies with all statutory safety requirements. Please note that inappropriate use can lead to personal injury and damage to property.

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important notes on installation, safety, use and maintenance.

Miele cannot be held liable for non-compliance with these instructions.

Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the contents. Pass them on to any future owner.

Correct application

This refrigeration appliance is intended for use in the home and in similar environments, for example – in shops, offices and similar work settings – by the guests in hotels, motels, bed & breakfasts and other typical home settings. This refrigeration appliance is not intended for outdoor use.

This appliance is intended for domestic use only for cooling and storing food and drink. It must not be used for any other purpose.

This appliance is not suitable for storing and keeping cool medicines, blood plasma, laboratory preparations or other such materials or products. Incorrect use of the appliance for such purposes can cause deterioration of the items stored. The appliance is not suitable for use in areas where there is a risk of explosion.

Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from improper or incorrect use of the appliance.

The appliance can only be used by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it, or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.

Safety with children

Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the appliance unless they are constantly supervised. Children 8 years and older may only use the appliance unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way and recognize and understand the consequences of incorrect operation. Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the appliance unsupervised. ▶ Please supervise children in the vicinity of the appliance and do not let them play with it. Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children could become entangled in packaging (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over their head and suffocate. Keep packaging material away from children.

Technical safety

The coolant system is tested for leaks. This appliance complies with statutory safety requirements and the appropriate EU guidelines.

R600a

This appliance contains the coolant Isobutane (R600a), a natural gas which is environmentally friendly. Although it is flammable, it does not damage the ozone layer and does not increase the greenhouse effect.

The use of this coolant has, however, led to a slight increase in the noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the compressor, you might be able to hear the coolant flowing around the system. This is unavoidable, and does not have any adverse effect on the performance of the appliance.

Care must be taken during the transportation and setting up of the appliance that no parts of the cooling system are damaged. Leaking coolant can damage the eyes.

In the event of any damage:

  • avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark, – disconnect the appliance from the mains electricity supply,
  • ventilate the room where the appliance is located for several minutes, and
  • contact the Miele Service Department.

The more coolant there is in a refrigeration appliance, the larger the room it should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a small room, there is the danger of combustible gases building up. For every 11 g of coolant at least 1 m³ of room space is required. The amount of coolant in the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the connection data (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) on the data plate corresponds to the household supply.

Check that this is the case before connecting the appliance. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.

The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

▶ Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from danger.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply by a multi-socket adapter or extension lead. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.

If moisture gets into electrical components or into the mains connection cable, it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate this refrigeration appliance in areas which are exposed to moisture (e.g in a garage or utility room).

This appliance must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g. on a ship).

Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check the appliance for visible signs of damage.

The appliance must be isolated from the electricity supply during installation, maintenance and repair work. Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user.

Installation, maintenance and repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise the warranty is invalidated.

Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when genuine original Miele replacement parts are used. Faulty components must only be replaced by Miele spare parts.

Correct use

The appliance is designed for use within a certain climate range (ambient temperatures), and should not be used outside this range. The climate range for your appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a room with too low an ambient temperature, e.g. a garage, will lead to the appliance switching off for longer periods so that it cannot maintain the required temperature. Do not cover or block the air vents as this could impair the efficiency of the appliance, increase the electricity consumption and could cause damage to the components. If storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil in the appliance or the door, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic components as this could cause stress cracks or break the plastic. Do not store explosive materials in the appliance or any products containing propellants (e.g. spray cans). Electrical components could cause flammable vapours to ignite. Danger of fire and explosion. Do not operate any electrical equipment (e.g. an electric ice cream maker) inside the appliance. Danger of sparking and explosion.

Observe the manufacturer's "use-by" dates and storage instructions given on food to avoid the risk of food poisoning. Storage times will depend on several factors, including the freshness and quality of the food, as well as the temperature at which it is stored. Only use genuine original Miele accessories and spare parts with this appliance. Using accessories or spare parts from other manufacturers will invalidate the warranty, and Miele cannot accept liability.

Stainless steel appliances

Adhesives will damage the stainless steel surface and cause it to lose its dirt-repellent protective coating. Do not use sticky notes, transparent adhesive tape, masking tape, or other types of adhesive on the stainless steel surface.

The surface is susceptible to scratching. Even magnets can cause scratching.

Cleaning and care

Do not use any oils or grease on the door seals, as these will cause the seals to deteriorate and become porous with time. Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean or defrost this appliance.

Steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Sharp edged or pointed objects will damage the evaporator, causing irreversible damage to the appliance. Do not use sharp edged or pointed objects to

  • remove frost and ice,
  • separate frozen foods or remove ice trays.

Do not 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 could damage the plastic parts or which might cause the build-up of gases and pose a danger to health.

Transport

Always transport the appliance in an upright position and in its original transport packaging to avoid damage in transit. Danger of injury and damage. The appliance is very heavy and must be transported by two people.

Disposal of your old appliance

Before disposing of an old appliance, first make the door latch or lock unusable.

This way you will prevent children from accidentally locking themselves in and endangering their lives.

Splashes of coolant can damage the eyes. Be careful not to damage any part of the pipework whilst awaiting disposal, e.g. by

- puncturing the coolant channels in the condenser,

- bending any pipework, or

- scratching the surface coating.

Disposal of the packing material

The packaging is designed to protect the appliance from damage during transportation. The packaging materials used are selected from materials which are environmentally friendly for disposal and should be recycled.

Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites.

Disposal of your old appliance

Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore, dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.

Symbol of a trash bin with crossed lines indicating no waste or discharge.

Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for electrical and electronic appliances, or contact your dealer or Miele for advice. You are also responsible (by law, depending on country) for deleting any personal data that may be stored on the appliance being disposed of.

Take care not to damage the pipework at the back of it before or during transportation to an authorised collection depot.

In this way, refrigerant in the pipework and oil in the compressor will be contained, and will not leak into the environment.

Please ensure that your old appliance presents no danger to children while being stored awaiting disposal. See "Warning and Safety instructions" for more information.

Switching off for longer periods of time

⚠️ If, during a long absence, the appliance is switched off but not cleaned and the door(s) left shut, there is a danger of mould building up inside the appliance. It is essential to clean the appliance.

If the appliance is not going to be used for a longer period of time, e.g. whilst on holiday:

■ switch the appliance off, ■ disconnect it from the mains, ■ clean the appliance and ■ leave the door(s) ajar to air the appliance and avoid odours building up inside the appliance.

It is very important to set the correct temperature for storing food in the appliance. Micro-organisms will cause food which is not stored at the correct temperature to deteriorate rapidly. Temperature influences the growth rate of these micro-organisms. Reducing the temperature reduces their growth rate.

The temperature in the appliance will rise:

– the more often the door is opened and the longer it is kept open, – the more food that is stored in it, – the warmer the food is which is being put into it, - the higher the ambient temperature surrounding the appliance. The appliance is designed for use within specific ambient temperatures (climate range). Do not use in ambient temperatures for which it is not designed.

... in the refrigerator section

We recommend a temperature of 4°C in the refrigerator section.

This function is useful when going on holiday if you do not wish to switch the fridge compartment off completely and do not need a high degree of cooling.

The refrigerator section is regulated at a temperature of 15 °C, remaining in operation whilst also saving energy.

Do not store any temperature-sensitive food which goes off easily such as fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and dairy products during this time.

Food which does not go off quickly can be stored in the appliance for some time at this moderate refrigerator section temperature and energy consumption is lower than in normal operation. This also prevents the build-up of odours and mould which can occur if the refrigerator section is switched off and the door is closed.

When the Holiday mode is switched on, it is indicated in the start screen:

If storing food which contains a lot of fat or oil in the appliance or the appliance door, make sure that it does not come into contact with plastic components as this could cause stress cracks or break the plastic.

Make sure that no oil or grease leaks onto the plastic parts of the appliance. This can cause the plastic to crack and break.

Different storage zones

Due to natural air circulation there are different temperature zones in the refrigerator section.

Cold, heavy air sinks to the lowest section of the appliance. Make use of the different temperature zones when placing food in the appliance.

To allow air to circulate efficiently, do not pack food too closely together in the refrigerator.

Do not cover the fan in the rear wall of the refrigerator, as this is essential for keeping the appliance cool.

Food must not touch the back of the refrigerator section as it may freeze to the back wall.

This appliance has automatic Dynamic cooling, which helps to keep an even temperature when the fan is running, making the difference between the various zones less pronounced.

Warmest area

The warmest area in the refrigerator section is at the top in the front area and in the door. Use this for storing butter and cheese.

Coldest area

The coldest area in the refrigerator section is directly above the DailyFresh drawer and at the back of the appliance.

Use these areas in the refrigerator section for all delicate and highly perishable food.

  • fish, meat, poultry,
  • sausage products, ready meals, – dishes or baked goods containing eggs or cream, – fresh dough, cake mixtures, pizza or quiche dough,
  • soft cheese and other dairy products,
  • pre-packed vegetables and other fresh food with a label stating it should be kept at a temperature of approx. 4 °C.

Food which is not suitable for storage in the refrigerator section

Not all food is suitable for refrigeration at temperatures below 5°C as some food is sensitive to cold. The appearance, consistency, taste and / or the vitamin content of certain types of food can be adversely affected by being stored in too cold a place.

Food which does not tolerate cold temperatures includes:

  • Pineapples, avocados, bananas, pomegranates, mangoes, melons, papayas, passion fruit, citrus fruits (such as lemons, oranges, mandarins, grapefruit),
  • Fruit which is not yet ripe
  • Aubergines/eggplant, cucumbers, potatoes, peppers/capsicum, tomatoes, courgettes/zucchini, – Some hard cheeses, e.g. Parmesan.

When shopping for food

The freshness of food when first placed in the appliance is the most important factor in determining how long it stays fresh, and how long it can be kept in the appliance.

Always observe the use-by date and the recommended storage temperature. Time out of the refrigerator should be kept to a minimum, for example, when transporting food in a hot car.

Tip: Take a cool bag with you when shopping and on return place food into the appliance immediately.

Storing food correctly

Food should generally be stored covered or packaged in the refrigerator section (there are some exceptions to this rule in the DailyFresh drawer). This will prevent food smells from affecting other food, food from drying out, and also any cross-contamination of bacteria. This is especially important for storing protein-based food such as meat or fish. The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the correct temperature and maintaining good standards of hygiene.

Protein rich food

Please note that food rich in protein deteriorates faster than other types of food. Shellfish, for example, deteriorates faster than fish, and fish deteriorates faster than meat.

Storing food in the DailyFresh drawer

The DailyFresh drawer provides good storage conditions for fruit and vegetables.

The humidity level in the DailyFresh drawer can also be regulated to suit the food being stored. Food retains its own moisture if stored at a higher humidity and so does not dry out as quickly. The temperature is approximately equivalent to the temperature in the refrigerator section.

Remember that the fresher the food when placed in the appliance, the longer it will stay fresh.

Regulating the humidity level in the DailyFresh drawer

graph TD A["Top Box"] --> B["Inner Box with Down Arrow"] B --> C["Bottom Box with Down Arrow"] style A fill:#fff,stroke:#000 style C fill:#fff,stroke:#000 style B fill:#ccc,stroke:#000 style C fill:#ccc,stroke:#000

A slide control is used to regulate the amount of moisture present.

Slide control at Δ = moisture not increased

For hygiene reasons always keep these foods covered or wrapped.

Slide control at ΔΔ = moisture increased

This setting is suitable for storing fruit and vegetables.

The slide control closes the vents in the drawer so the moisture cannot escape.

The moisture level greatly depends on the type and quantity of food being stored, if stored unwrapped.

If the quantity of food being stored in this compartment is small, the humidity level may be low.

Tip: If you are only storing a small amount of food, wrap it in airtight packaging.

Increased moisture in the drawer can, in some circumstances, cause a build-up of condensate.

Use a cloth to remove the condensate.

Storage results for food stored in the DailyFresh drawer

Observe the following tips if you find that food you have stored does not keep well (e.g. food becomes limp or wilts after only being stored for a short time):

  • Only place fresh food in the appliance. The initial condition of the food is crucial to maintaining freshness. – Clean the drawer before storing food in it.
  • Very wet food should be dried off before storing it.
  • Do not store food which is sensitive to cold in the drawer (see "Food which is not suitable for storing in the refrigerator section").
  • Set the slide control to the correct position for the food being stored (humidity not increased or humidity increased).
  • An increased humidity level ΔΔ in the humidity controlled compartment is achieved by the moisture present in the food being stored, i.e. the more food stored in the compartment, the higher the humidity.

If too much moisture collects in the compartment at the ♂ setting and the food is affected, dry the floor with a cloth, and place a rack or similar item in the compartment so that excess moisture can drip down.

If the humidity level becomes too low, wrap the food in airtight packaging.

Refrigerator section and DailyFresh drawer

The refrigerator section and the DailyFresh drawer defrost automatically.

Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the refrigerator section and the DailyFresh drawer whilst the compressor is running. You do not need to remove this, as it will defrost and evaporate automatically with the warmth generated by the compressor.

The condensate is drained away through a channel and drain hole, then fed into an evaporation system at the back of the appliance.

⚠️ Condensate must be able to drain away unhindered at all times. Keep the condensate channel and drain hole clean to enable this.

Do not let water get into the electronic unit or the lighting.

⚠️ Steam from a steam cleaning appliance could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.

Do not use a steam cleaning appliance to clean the appliance.

Cleaning water must not get into the drain hole.

The data plate located inside the appliance must not be removed. It contains information which is required in the event of a service call.

Cleaning agents

Cleaning and conditioning agents used inside the appliance must be food safe.

To avoid damaging the surfaces of the appliance, do not use the following:

  • Cleaning agents containing soda, ammonia, acids or chlorides,
  • Cleaning agents containing descaling agents,
  • Abrasive cleaning agents (e.g., scouring powder, scouring liquid, or pumice stones),
  • Solvent-based cleaning agents, – Stainless steel cleaning agents,
  • Dishwasher cleaner,
  • Oven sprays,
  • Glass cleaning agents,

– Hard, abrasive sponges and brushes (e.g., pot scourers), - Eraser stain remover blocks, - Sharp metal scrapers.

To clean the stainless steel surfaces on the appliance, we recommend using the original Miele conditioning agent for stainless steel (see “Optional accessories”).

Unlike stainless steel cleaning agents, the conditioning agent does not contain any abrasive substances and will gently remove soiling. Each time it is used, it forms a water and dirt repellent protective coating.

We recommend using lukewarm water with a little washing-up liquid to clean surfaces of the appliance.

The following pages contain important information on cleaning.

Preparing the appliance for cleaning

■ Switch the appliance off. Ⓐ appears in the display and cooling is switched off. ■ Disconnect it from the mains. ■ Take any food out of the appliance and store it in a cool place. ■ Remove the shelves and bottle shelf from the door. ■ Take out all other removable parts for cleaning.

Cleaning the interior and accessories

Clean the appliance at least once a month.

Remove soiling immediately to prevent it from drying on.

■ Clean the interior with a clean sponge, lukewarm water and a little washing-up liquid. ■ After cleaning, wipe with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

⚠️ The stainless steel parts on the shelves are not dishwasher safe. Remove the trim before cleaning the door shelves and adjustable shelves in a dishwasher.

The following parts cannot be cleaned in a dishwasher:

– the stainless steel trim or strips – the protective strips at the back of the adjustable shelves – all drawers and the compartment lid (depending on model) - the bottle rack ■ These accessories should all be hand washed.

The following parts are suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher:

⚠️ The maximum temperature of the dishwashing programme selected must not exceed 55 °C.

Contact with natural dyes e.g. from carrots, tomatoes and ketchup may discolour the plastic parts in the dishwasher. This discolouration does not affect the stability of the parts.

  • bottle holder, butter dish, egg tray (depending on model) – the bottle shelf and shelves in the door (with stainless steel trim removed)
  • the adjustable shelves (with the trim/ strips removed and without the printing) – the holder for the charcoal filters

■ Clean the condensate channel and drain hole frequently so that condensate can drain away unhindered. Use a straw or similar to clear the drain if necessary. ■ Take the DailyFresh drawer out to do this. ■ Remove any soiling on stainless steel trims and strips. We recommend using the Miele Care product for stainless steel.

Tip: The Miele Care product for stainless steel is also recommended for maintenance, as it will protect the stainless steel surface and prevent it from rapidly getting dirty again.

■ Leave the door open to air the appliance for a short while and to prevent odours building up.

Cleaning the front of the appliance and the side panels

Appliance front

The appliance front has a high quality, special finish (CleanSteel). It is resistant to soiling and is very easy to clean.

Do not use stainless steel cleaning agent on this surface. This would damage the coating.

Do not use stainless steel conditioning agent on this surface. It will cause noticeable smearing.

If soiling is left on for any length of time, it may become impossible to remove. Surfaces may suffer discolouration or damage. Therefore it is best to remove soiling from the appliance front and side panels immediately.

All surfaces are susceptible to scratching. Contact with unsuitable cleaning agents can alter or discolour the surfaces. See the information on “Cleaning agents” at the beginning of this section.

■ Clean the surfaces with a clean sponge and a solution of warm water and washing-up liquid. A clean, damp microfibre cloth without cleaning agent can also be used.

■ After cleaning, wipe with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Cleaning the ventilation grille

A build-up of dust will increase the energy consumption of the appliance.

■ The ventilation grille should be cleaned on a regular basis with a brush or vacuum cleaner (e.g. use the dusting brush for Miele vacuum cleaners).

If you want to be reminded automatically every 12 months, switch the Clean ventilation grille reminder on (see “Selecting further settings - Clean ventilation grille ⚙ reminder”).

Cleaning the door seals

⚠️ If a door seal is damaged or if it has come out of the groove, the door will not close properly and cooling performance will be reduced. Condensate will build up in the interior and this can cause a build-up of ice. Do not damage door seals and ensure that they do not come out of their groove.

Do not use any grease or oil on door seals as these will cause them to deteriorate and become porous over time.

■ Door seals should be cleaned regularly with clean water, and then wiped dry with a soft cloth.

Replacing the charcoal filters

Replace the charcoal filters in the holder every 6 months.

If you would like to be reminded automatically every 6 months, switch on the Replace charcoal filter reminder (see "Selecting further settings" - "Replace charcoal filter reminder").

Replacement KKF-RF charcoal filters can be obtained from your Miele dealer, Miele or via the internet at www.miele-shop.com.

The charcoal filter holder is dishwasher-proof.

Pull the charcoal filter holder upwards to remove it from the shelf.

When in position the charcoal filters must not touch the back wall of the appliance as the moisture could cause them to stick to the back wall. Insert the new charcoal filters into the holder so that they do not protrude over the edge of the holder.

The appliance must only be connected using the connection cable supplied (AC 220-240 V 50 Hz supply).

[mm] ~2100 ~1800 ~1400

① Appliance plug connector

② Mains plug

A longer connection cable is available to order from Miele.

The fuse rating must be at least 10 A.

This appliance must be connected to a suitable switched socket. The electrical installation must be in compliance with current local and national safety regulations, (e.g. VDE 0100 in Germany).

The socket must not be concealed behind the appliance and must be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly disconnected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency.

If the socket is no longer accessible after installation, an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles. Suitable means of disconnection include switches with an all-pole contact gap of at least 3 mm. These include miniature circuit breakers, fuses and contactors (EN 60335).

The mains plug and mains connection cable must not come into contact with the back of the appliance as vibrations can cause damage to these components. This could result in a short circuit.

Do not plug in other appliances behind this appliance.

Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

Do not connect the appliance to a stand-alone inverter such as those used with an autonomous energy source e.g. solar power.

When the appliance is switched on, power surges could result in a safety switch-off. This could damage the electronic module. The appliance must not be used with so-called energy saving devices either. These reduce the amount of energy supplied to the appliance, causing it to overheat.

Connecting the applianceDiagram of an electronic device showing a switch and plug inserted into a panel (no text or symbols visible)

⚠️ Fire risk and danger of damage! Do not place a naked flame, e.g. a candle on top of or beside this appliance.

Side-by-side combinations

As a general rule, refrigerators and freezers should not be installed side-by-side with other such appliances so as to avoid a build-up of condensation between them and the damage this can cause.

If the model number for your refrigeration appliance does not have the letter "S" in it, it cannot be installed "side-by-side". Your refrigeration appliance must not be installed "side-by-side" because it is not equipped with built-in heating units in the side panels.

If the model number for your refrigeration appliance does have the letter "S" in it, it can be installed "side-by-side". Your refrigeration appliance is equipped with built-in heating units in the side panels.

Please contact your dealer for specific information about which combinations will work with your appliance.

Location

This appliance should be installed in a dry, well-ventilated room.

When deciding where to install your refrigeration appliance please bear in mind that it will use more energy if installed near to a heater, a cooker or other appliance that gives off heat. Direct sunlight should also be avoided. The higher the room temperature, the longer the compressor runs and the higher the energy consumption is.

When installing the appliance, please note:

  • The socket must be easily accessible in an emergency, not concealed behind the appliance.
  • The plug and cable must not touch the rear of the appliance as they could be damaged by vibrations from the appliance.
  • Do not plug in other appliances behind this appliance.

⚠️ In environments with high humidity condensation can build up on the external appliance panels.

This can lead to corrosion of the panels.

For prevention, it is advisable to install the appliance with sufficient ventilation in a dry and/or air conditioned room.

After installation make sure that the appliance door closes properly, the specified ventilation gaps have been adhered to and that the appliance has been installed in accordance with these installation instructions.

Climate range

The appliance is designed for use within a certain climate range (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 temperature
SN +10 to +32 °C
N +16 to +32 °C
ST +16 to +38 °C
T +16 to +43 °C

Operating in a room which is too cold will cause the compressor to switch off for too long, causing the internal temperature in the appliance to rise with the risk of food deteriorating and going off.

Ventilation

Air at the back of the appliance gets warm.

⚠️ To ensure efficient ventilation the ventilation gaps must not be covered or blocked in any way. They should be dusted on a regular basis.

Fitting wall spacers supplied

The wall spacers supplied must be used in order to achieve declared energy consumption values and to prevent the build-up of condensation at high ambient temperatures. Appliance depth is increased by approx. 15 mm with the wall spacers fitted. If the wall spacers are not used the functionality of the appliance is not affected. Energy consumption is only slightly increased with less distance between the appliance and the wall.

■ Fit the wall spacers onto the back of the appliance on the bottom left and right.

Limiting the opening angle of the door

The door hinges are set at the factory so that the door can be opened up to 115°. If the appliance door hits an adjacent wall when opened, for example, the opening angle can be limited to 90°.

The door opening angle limiter should be fitted before the appliance is installed.

To fit the door opening angle limiter

■ Switch off at the wall and withdraw the plug from the socket, or disconnect the mains fuse.

Building the appliance into a kitchen run

If the ventilation gaps given are not observed, the compressor will run more frequently and for longer periods.

This will result in increased energy consumption and a higher operating temperature for the compressor. This may, in turn, cause damage to the compressor.

It is essential to observe the ventilation gaps given.

≥300 cm², ≥50 mm, 675 mm*, ①, ②, ③, ④, ≥40 mm

① Top box ② Refrigeration appliance ③ Housing unit ④ Wall

The appliance depth is increased by approx. 15 mm for appliances with wall spacers fitted.

The appliance can be built into a kitchen run and installed directly next to a kitchen furniture housing unit. The appliance front must protrude in front of furniture fronts by at least 65 mm. This enables the doors to be opened and shut without being obstructed. To match the height of the rest of the kitchen, the appliance can be fitted with a suitable top box ①.

When installed next to a wall ④ a distance of at least 40 mm must be maintained on the hinge side between the wall ④ and the appliance ②.

The larger the ventilation gap, the more economically the compressor will work.

  • A ventilation gap of at least 50 mm depth must be provided at the back of the appliance behind the whole width of the top box for air to circulate.
  • The cross-section of the air inlet and outlet under the ceiling must be at least 300 cm² to ensure that air can circulate without obstruction.
