Danger of suffocation! Whilst playing, children could become
entangled in packaging (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over their
head and suffocate. Keep packaging material away from children.
Technical safety
The refrigerant circuit has been checked for leaks. The wine
conditioning unit complies with statutory safety requirements and
the appropriate EU directives.
This wine unit contains the refrigerant Isobutane (R600a), a
natural gas which is environmentally friendly. The refrigerant does not
damage the ozone layer and does not contribute to the greenhouse
effect.
The use of this refrigerant has, however, led to a slight increase in the
noise level of the appliance. In addition to the noise of the
compressor, you might be able to hear the refrigerant flowing around
the cooling circuit. Unfortunately, this cannot be avoided, but it does
not affect the performance of the wine unit.
When transporting and installing the wine unit, ensure that no parts
of the cooling circuit are damaged. Splashes of refrigerant can
damage the eyes.
In the event of damage:
- Avoid naked flames or anything which creates a spark.
- Disconnect the wine unit from the mains electricity supply.
- Ventilate the room where the wine unit is located for several
minutes.
- Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
The more refrigerant there is in a wine unit, the larger the room it
should be installed in. In the event of a leakage, if the appliance is in a
small room, there is the danger of a combustible gas/air mixture
building up. For every 8 g of refrigerant at least 1 m
required. The amount of refrigerant in the wine unit is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
