Problem solving guide

Repairs to electrical appliances should only be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person in accordance with local and national safety regulations. Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for unauthorised work.

Some minor problems can be corrected without contacting the Miele Service Department.

What to do if . . .

. . . the appliance does not get cold.

^Check whether the appliance has been switched on. The mains indicator light must be lit up.

^Check that the plug is correctly inserted in the socket and switched on.

^Check that the fuse is not defective and that the mains fuse has not blown. If it has, contact the Miele Ser- vice Department.

. . . the door 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 temperature is too low.

^Turn the temperature selector to a setting closer to "1".

^The Super freeze function has not been switched off. The indicator light is still on.

. . . the appliance is switching in too frequently and for too long.

^Check whether the ventilation gaps in the plinth and in the housing unit at the top have been covered over or become too dusty.

^The door has been opened too frequently, or a large amount of fresh food has been put in at once for freezing.

^Check that the door has been closed properly.

^Check whether a thick layer of ice has built up. If it has, then the appliance will need defrosting.

. . . the temperature indicator light is on?

The temperature in the freezer has become too warm because

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

^there has been a lengthy interruption to the power supply.

^the ventilation gaps are blocked.

The temperature indicator light will go out when the temperature in the freezer is cold enough.
