Troubleshooting
Repairs to electrical appliances
must be carried out by qualified
professionals. Work performed by
unqualified persons can place the
user at considerable risk of harm.
However, you can correct the following
minor problems yourself:
What should I do if ...
. . . the refrigerator or freezer section
does not cool?
Check that the respective section is
switched on. The corresponding
temperature display should be lit up.
Check that the plug is completely
inserted in the socket.
Check whether the circuit breaker of
the house wiring system is switched
off. If so, contact Miele Customer Service.
. . . the door to the freezer section
cannot be opened and closed several
times in succession?
This is no cause for concern. Repeated
opening and closing of the door can
cause strong suction. The door can be
opened without difficulty if you wait a
few minutes.

. . . the temperature in the refrigerator
or freezer section is too cold?
Set a warmer temperature.
Check that the doors are properly
closed.
Did you freeze a large quantity of
food all at once?
This causes the appliance to run for a
long time, and the temperature drops
automatically.
The Super Cool function has not yet
switched off.
The Super Freeze function has not
yet switched off.
. . . the compressor is switching on
too frequently and for too long?
Check whether the ventilation slits
are blocked or dusty.
Check whether the metal coil (heat
exchanger) at the rear of the
appliance is dusty.
The doors have been opened
frequently, or a large amount of fresh
food has been put in all at once for
freezing.
Check that the doors are closing
properly.
. . . the compressor runs non-stop?
To save energy, the compressor
switches to a lower rpm when less
cooling is required. This increases the
appliance's running time.
