    							Disposal of the packing
    material
    The transport and protective packing
    has been selected from materials which
    are environmentally friendly for
    disposal, and should be recycled.
    Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
    bags etc. are disposed of safely and
    kept out of the reach of babies and
    young children. Danger of suffocation!
    Disposal of your old appliance
    Electrical and electronic appliances
    often contain materials which, if
    handled or disposed of incorrectly,
    could be potentially hazardous to
    human health and to the environment.
    They are, however, essential for the
    correct functioning of your appliance.
    Please do not therefore dispose of it
    with your household waste.
    Please dispose of it at your local
    community waste collection / recycling
    centre or contact your dealer for
    advice. Ensure that it presents no
    danger to children while being stored
    for disposal.
    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 out into the
    environment.

    material damage.
    To avoid the risk of accidents and
    damage to the appliance, please
    read these instructions carefully
    before installation and before using
    it for the first time. They contain
    important notes on the installation,
    safety, operation and care of the
    appliance.
    Keep these instructions in a safe
    place and pass them on to any
    future user.
    Correct application
    ~This appliance is not designed for
    commercial use. It is intended for use in
    domestic households and in similar
    working and residential environments
    such as:
    –
    Shops
    –
    Offices and showrooms
    and by residents in establishments
    such as:
    –
    Hostels and guest houses.
    The appliance is not intended for
    outdoor use.
    It must only be used as a domestic
    appliance to store deep frozen food, to
    freeze fresh food and to prepare ice.Any other usage is not supported by
    the manufacturer and could be
    dangerous. Miele cannot be held liable
    for damage resulting from incorrect or
    improper use or operation 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
    understand the hazards involved.

    Warning and Safety instructions
    6
     
    						
    							Technical safety
    ~Before setting up the appliance,
    check it for any externally visible
    damage. Do not install and use a
    damaged appliance.
    ~If the connection cable is faulty it
    must only be replaced by a service
    technician authorised by the
    manufacturer to protect the user from
    danger.
    ~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, but 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 and anything
    which creates a spark,
    - disconnect from the mains,- air the room in which the appliance is
    located for several minutes and
    - contact the Service Department for
    advice.
    ~The more coolant there is in an
    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 every8gofcoolant at least 1 m
    3of
    room space is required. The amount of
    coolant in the appliance is stated on the
    data plate inside the appliance.
    ~Safe operation of the appliance is
    only assured if it has been installed and
    connected in accordance with these
    operating and installation instructions.
    ~Before connecting the appliance to
    the mains supply, make sure that the
    rating on the data plate corresponds to
    the voltage and frequency of the
    household supply.
    This data must correspond in order to
    avoid the risk of damage to the
    appliance. Consult a qualified
    electrician if in any doubt.
    ~Do not connect the appliance to the
    mains electricity supply by a
    multi-socket unit or an extension lead.
    These do not guarantee the required
    safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
    overheating).
    Warning and Safety instructions
    7
     
    						
    							~The electrical safety of this
    appliance can only be guaranteed
    when continuity is complete between it
    and an effective earthing system which
    complies with current local and national
    safety regulations. It is most important
    that this basic safety requirement is
    present and tested regularly, and
    where there is any doubt, the
    household wiring system should be
    inspected by a qualified electrician.
    The manufacturer cannot be held liable
    for damage or injury caused by the lack
    of or inadequacy of an effective
    earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
    ~Installation, maintenance and
    repairs may only be carried out by a
    suitably qualified and competent
    person in strict accordance with current
    national and local safety regulations.
    Repairs and other work by unqualified
    persons could be dangerous. The
    manufacturer cannot be held liable for
    unauthorised work.
    ~While the appliance is under
    guarantee, repairs should only be
    undertaken by a service technician
    authorised by the manufacturer.
    Otherwise the guarantee will be
    invalidated.
    ~The appliance must be isolated from
    the electricity supply during installation,
    maintenance and repair work.
    The appliance is only completely
    isolated from the electricity supply
    when:
    –it has been switched off at the wall
    socket and the plug has been
    withdrawn.
    –the fuse from the fused spur
    connection unit has been withdrawn,
    or
    –the mains fuse is withdrawn, or the
    screw-out fuse is removed (in
    countries where this is applicable).
    ~Faulty components must only be
    replaced by genuine Miele original
    spare parts. The manufacturer can only
    guarantee the safety of the appliance
    when Miele replacement parts are
    used.
    ~This appliance must not be used in
    a non-stationary location (e.g. on a
    ship).
    ~In countries where there are areas
    which may be subject to infestation by
    cockroaches or other vermin, pay
    particular attention to keeping the
    appliance and its surroundings in a
    clean condition at all times. Any
    damage which may be caused by
    cockroaches or other vermin will not be
    covered by the guarantee.

    							Correct use
    ~Never handle frozen food with wet
    hands. Your hands may freeze to the
    frozen food.
    ~Do not take ice cubes out with your
    bare hands and never place ice cubes
    or ice lollies in your mouth straight from
    the freezer. The very low temperature of
    the frozen ice or lollies can cause frost
    burn to the lips and tongue.
    ~Do not refreeze thawed or partially
    thawed food.
    Defrosted food should be used up as
    quickly as possible, as food soon loses
    it nutritional value and goes off.
    Defrosted food may only be re-frozen
    after it has been cooked.
    ~Never store explosive materials in
    the appliance or any products
    containing propellants (e.g. spray
    cans). Thermostats switching on may
    produce sparks which could present a
    fire hazard. Flammable compounds
    could explode.
    ~Do not operate any electrical
    equipment (e.g. an electric ice-cream
    maker) inside the appliance. Danger of
    sparking and explosion.
    ~Do not store cans or bottles
    containing carbonated drinks or liquids
    which could freeze in the freezer. The
    cans or bottles could explode.
    Danger of injury and damage to the
    appliance.
    ~When cooling drinks quickly in the
    freezer, make sure bottles are not left in
    for more than one hour, otherwise they
    could burst, resulting in injury or
    damage.
    ~Observe the use by dates 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. Follow
    the instructions given on food
    manufacturers packaging on storage
    conditions required, as well as the “use
    by” date.
    ~Do not use sharp edged objects to
    – remove frost and ice,
    – separate frozen foods or remove ice
    trays.
    They will damage the evaporator,
    causing irreversible damage to the
    appliance.
    ~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 might contain
    substances which could damage the
    plastic parts or which could cause a
    build-up of gases and pose a danger to
    health.
    ~Do not use any oils or grease on the
    door seal, as these will cause the seal
    to deteriorate and become porous with
    time.
    Warning and Safety instructions
    9
     
    						
    							~Do not block the ventilation gaps in
    the plinth or the top of the appliance
    housing unit as this would impair the
    efficiency of the appliance, increase the
    electricity consumption and could
    cause damage to the appliance.
    ~The appliance is designed for use
    within certain climate ranges (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,
    can lead to the appliance switching off
    for longer periods so that it cannot
    maintain the required temperature.
    ~Do not use a steam-cleaning
    appliance to defrost or clean this
    appliance. Steam could reach the
    electrical components and cause a
    short circuit.
    Disposal of your old freezer
    ~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.
    ~Be careful not to damage any part of
    the pipework whilst awaiting disposal,
    e.g. by
    –puncturing the refrigerant channels
    int he evaporator, e.g. by
    –bending any pipework.
    – scratching the surface coating.
    Splashes of refrigerant can damage the
    eyes.
    The manufacturer cannot be held
    liable for damage caused by
    non-compliance with these Warning
    and Safety instructions.
