Safety Instructions and Warnings
Technical safety
~
The coolant circuit has been tested for leaks. The appliance
fulfills all the applicable safety regulations.
~
This appliance contains the coolant R134a, which is an
environmentally acceptable, non-flammable hydrofluorocarbon
(HFC). It does not damage the ozone layer. For more information on
the coolant, refer to the information plate posted on the inside of the
refigerator section. When transporting and installing the appliance,
care must be taken not to damage any part of the cooling system.
If damage does occur:
– unplug the appliance from the socket,
– air the room where the appliance is, for several minutes,
– contact Miele Customer Service for advice.
~
To protect the refrigerator from possible damage, take care that it
alsways remains in an upright position. Any time it is moved or
installed, always let it stand for 30 to 60 minutes before plugging it
in. This allows the coolant and lubricant to settle down, which is
essential for proper operation.
~
Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection
data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) matches
the electrical power supply.
This data must correspond in order to avoid damage to the
appliance. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be ensured if it
has been properly grounded in compliance with the applicable
safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is observed. If there is any doubt about the grounding
of your household wiring, have it inspected by a qualified electrician.
~
If the power cord is damaged it must be replaced by an
authorized Miele technician in order to avoid any danger to the user.
