Miele Refrigerator Maintenance Tips
- 1Clean condenser coils every 6-12 months (back or bottom of unit)
- 2Check door seals regularly — clean with warm soapy water
- 3Set temperature to 2-4°C (35-39°F) for fridge, -18°C (0°F) for freezer
- 4Don't block air vents inside the fridge with food items
- 5Defrost manually if frost buildup exceeds 5mm (non-frost-free models)
- 6Keep the fridge at least 3/4 full for optimal energy efficiency
- 7Replace the water filter every 6 months if your model has one
