Miele KFN 14943 SD ED - Manual (Page 37)

Cleaning the ventilation slits
^ The ventilation slits should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build-up
of dust will increase the amount of
energy the appliance consumes.
Door seal
Do not use any grease or oil on the
door seal as they will cause the seal
to deteriorate over time.
The door seal should be cleaned
regularly with clear water and then
wiped dry with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the exterior coils
The metal coils on the back of the
appliance (heat exchanger) need to be
dusted and cleaned at least once a
year. A build-up of dust and grime will
increase the amount of energy the
appliance consumes!
When cleaning the coils, be careful
not to tear off, kink or otherwise
damage any wiring or other parts.
After cleaning
^ Replace all the parts of the
refrigerator section.
^ Return food to the refrigerator
section, close the doors, plug in the
power cord and switch on the
appliance.
^ Switch on the Super Freeze function
to cool down the freezer section
quickly.
^ Once the temperature in the freezer
section is cold enough, you can
place the food in the freezer drawers
and return the drawers to the freezer.
^ Switch off the Super Freeze function
as soon as the freezer section has
reached a constant temperature of at
least 0°F (-18°C).
