Page 34

Problem solving guide

Operating in a room which is too cold will cause the cooling system to switch off for too long, causing the freezer section to become too warm.

. . . food has frozen together.

Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon handle or plastic scraper, to prise it apart carefully.

. . . the door to the freezer section will not open because it has been opened and closed too many times in succession.

￿This is not a fault. The suction caused by opening and closing the door is preventing the door from opening. Wait a few minutes and then try again. It should now open without force.

. . the alarm sounds.

Has the appliance door been open for longer than 60 seconds?

￿Close the door.

. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm indicator light flashes.

The freezer section temperature has risen above the set temperature because

￿the freezer section door has been opened too frequently, or large amounts of fresh food have been put in at once for freezing.

￿the ventilation gaps are blocked.

Once the problem has been resolved and the temperature in the freezer is

sufficiently cold, the alarm indicator light will go out and the alarm will stop.

. . . the Super freeze indicator light and one of the temperature display lights are flashing at the same time.

There is a fault. Call the Service Department.

. . . the interior lighting in the refrigerator is not working.

￿Was the refrigerator door left open for too long? The lighting switches itself off automatically after approx. 15 minutes if the door is left open.

If this is not the case, then the interior lighting is defective.

￿Call Miele Service.

The LED lighting may only be repaired or replaced by a service technician. There are live electrical components under the cover. Danger of injury and damage to the appliance.

Do not remove the cover. If the cover is damaged or needs to be removed due to damage, exercise caution. There are lasers in the lighting (laser beam class 1M) which you should avoid looking at directly. Do not use optical instruments (magnifying glass or similar) to look at the lighting either.
