Rather than just throwing these materials away, please ensure that they are recycled.
Warning and Safety instructions Technical safety This appliance complies with all relevant legal safety requirements. Improper use of the appliance can, however, present a risk of both personal injury and material damage. To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the appliance, read the operating instructions carefully before installation and before using for the first time. They contain important notes on the installation, safety, operation and care of the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national safety regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and tested regularly and where there is any doubt, the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
Warning and Safety instructions The appliance is designed for use within certain climate ranges (ambient temperatures), and should not be used outside this range. The climate range for your appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance. Installing it in a room with too low an ambient temperature, e.g. a garage, can lead to the appliance switching off for longer periods so that it cannot maintain the required temperature. Do not use a steam-cleaning appliance to clean this appliance.
How to save energy Installation normal energy consumption increased energy consumption In a ventilated room. In an enclosed, unventilated room. Protected from direct sunlight. In direct sunlight. Not situated near to a heat source (radiator, oven). Situated near to a heat source (radiator, oven). Where the ambient room temperature is ideal at approx. 20°C. Where there is a high ambient room temperature. Temperature setting with With a medium setting of 2 to 3.
Operation Before using for the first time Switching off ^ Clean the inside of the appliance and the accessories with warm water and a little washing up liquid and then dry with a soft cloth. ^ Press the On-Off button. Important: To ensure correct functioning of the appliance, let it stand for between ½ and 1 hour after transporting it to its final location before connecting it to the mains. The temperature display goes out and the cooling process is switched off.
The correct temperature and humidity Wine keeps on maturing depending on the surrounding conditions. The length of time for which wine can be kept in good condition will depend on the temperature as well as on the air humidity. Temperature Wine can be stored at a temperature between 5°C and 18°C. The optimum temperature is around 10-12°C. Most white wines can be consumed at this temperature. It is best to take red wine out of the wine cellar about two hours before drinking.
The correct temperature and humidity Temperature range The temperature can be adjusted from 5°C to 22°C. Temperature display During normal operation, the temperature display on the control panel shows the temperature inside the appliance. If the temperature in the appliance is not within the range that the appliance is able to display (i.e. 2-30°C), only bars will light up in the temperature display.
The correct temperature and humidity Air filtering with the active charcoal filter and dynamic cooling The active charcoal filter and the dynamic cooling system work together to ensure a good air flow is maintained throughout the cabinet and thus achieve optimum air quality. The dynamic cooling system draws fresh air with a humidity level of 60-70% from outside the appliance, in through the active charcoal filter and distributes it evenly around the interior.
Storing wine bottles Wooden shelves Descriptive labels Any vibration or movement of the bottle can affect the wine by interrupting the natural respiration process and so impair the taste. Use the labels supplied to identify your wine quickly and easily. Insert the labels into the wooden shelf fronts from above. As far as possible, store bottles of the same type of wine beside each other on the same shelf.
Alarm Your appliance is fitted with a warning system which ensures that the temperature cannot rise or fall unnoticed and impair the wine. Temperature alarm The alarm will sound if the temperature in the appliance rises approx. 4°C above or falls approx. 4°C below the set temperature. The temperature display will flash at the same time. The alarm will sound and the temperature display will flash: Switching on the alarm system The alarm system is always active. It does not have to be switched on manually.
Defrosting Condensate and frost can build up on the back wall of the appliance whilst it is in use. These are automatically removed and defrosted by the appliance. The condensate is drained away via a channel and drain hole into an evaporation system at the back of the appliance. Ensure that the condensate channel and drain hole are never blocked so that condensate can flow away without hindrance.
Cleaning and care Never use cleaning agents containing abrasive substances such as sand, soda, acids or chemical solvents. "Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are also unsuitable as they can cause matt areas to appear. Make sure that water cannot get into the electronic unit or into the lighting. Do not let water get into the drainage channel and drain hole when cleaning. Do not use steam cleaning apparatus to clean the appliance. Steam could reach the electrical components and cause a short circuit.
Cleaning and care Door seal Do not use any oils or grease on the door seal as these will cause the seal to deteriorate and become porous over time. Active charcoal filter Replace the active charcoal filter with a new one once a year. Active charcoal filters are available from your dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Dept. The door seal should be cleaned regularly with clean water and then wiped dry with a soft cloth.
