Troubleshooting
. . . the frozen food thaws because it is too warm in the freezer section?
^Did the room temperature drop below that for which the appliance was designed?
Increase the room temperature.
The compressor will run less often if the room temperature is too low. Therefore it may become too warm in the freezer section.
. . . food has frozen to the freezer floor or walls?
Use a blunt instrument (such as a spoon handle) to carefully pry the items off.
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm off button is flashing?
A temperature section is too warm because, for instance,
^the appliance door has been opened frequently, or a large amount of fresh food has been put in all at once for freezing.
^the ventilation slits are blocked.
When the problems have been solved, the alarm and the displays go out.
. . . bars light up in the temperature displays?
Check the temperature display approx. 6 hours after the appliance has been switched on. Only temperatures within the range the appliance can display will be shown.
. . . "_F" appears in the temperature display?
This indicates a problem. Call
Customer Service.
. . . the active charcoal filter change display lights up red?
^Change the active charcoal filters.
If necessary, order replacement filters from your Miele dealer.
. . . "nA" appears in the temperature display?
The temperature has risen too high at some point during the past few hours or days because of a power outage.
^While "nA" is illuminated, press the audio alarm off button.
The temperature display will show the warmest temperature recorded in the freezer section during the power outage.
Depending on the temperature, check to see whether the food in the freezer thawed partially or completely. If that is the case, cook the food before refreezing it.
The warmest recorded temperature will appear in the display for approx.
1 minute. Then the display will revert to the actual current temperature in the freezer section.
