Disposal of the packing
material
The transport and protective packing
has been selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and can normally be recycled.
Rather than just throwing these
materials away, please ensure they are
offered for recycling.
Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and
kept out of the reach of babies and
young children. Danger of suffocation!
Disposal of your old appliance
Old appliances contain materials which
can be reclaimed or recycled. Please
contact your dealer, your waste collec-
tion centre or scrap merchant about
potential recycling schemes.
Make sure that the pipework is not
damaged whilst moving an old appli-
ance. This is to ensure that the refriger-
ant and oil in the compressor cannot
leak into the environment. It is important
that they are disposed of in a safe
manner by authorised persons only.
Ensure that the appliance presents no
danger to children while being stored
for disposal.
See the appropriate section in the
Warning and safety instructions.
Caring for the environment
5

This appliance complies with all rele-
vant legal safety requirements. Im-
proper use of the appliance can,
however, present a risk of both per-
sonal injury and material damage.
Before installation and before using
for the first time, read the operating
instructions carefully. They contain
important notes on safety, the opera-
tion and care of the appliance. This
way you will avoid the risk of acci-
dents and damage to the appliance.
Keep these instructions in a safe
place and pass them on to any
future user.
Correct usage
This appliance is intended for do-
mestic use only for storing wine.
Any other usage is not supported by
the manufacturer and could be danger-
ous. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by im-
proper use of the appliance.
Technical safety
This appliance contains the coolant
Isobutane (R600a), a gas which
breaks down naturally. It is however
flammable. Care must be taken during
transportation and setting up of the ap-
pliance that no parts of the cooling sys-
tem are damaged. Leaking refrigerant
can damage the eyes.
In the event of refrigerant escaping:
– avoid open fires
and anything which creates a spark,
– disconnect from the mains,
– air the room in which the appliance is
located for several minutes and
– contact the Service Department.
for advice.
The more refrigerant there is in an
appliance 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 combusti-
ble gases building up.
For every 8 g of coolant at least 1 m3
room space is required. The amount of
coolant in the appliance is stated on the
data plate inside the appliance.
Before connecting the appliance to
the mains supply, make sure that
the rating on the data plate corre-
sponds to the voltage and frequency of
the household supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid risk of damage to the appliance.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-
trician.
Warning and safety instructions
6

The electrical safety of this appli-
ance can only be guaranteed when
continuity is complete between the ap-
pliance and an effective earthing sys-
tem which complies with local and na-
tional safety regulations. It is most im-
portant that this basic safety require-
ment is tested by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held re-
sponsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. elec-
tric shock).
Safe operation of the appliance is
only assured if it has been installed
and connected in accordance with
these operating and installation instruc-
tions.
Installation work, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by
suitably qualified and competent per-
sons.
Repairs and other work by unqualified
persons could be dangerous and the
manufacturer will not be held responsi-
ble.
The appliance is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
–the plug has been withdrawn.
Do not pull on the cable, only on the
plug.
–the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
–the screw-out fuse is removed in
countries where this is applicable.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance.
(e.g. danger of overheating).
Use
Never store explosive materials in
the appliance.
Switching on thermostats may produce
sparks which could present a fire haz-
ard.
Do not use any grease or oil on the
door seals. These cause the seals
to become porous in the course of time.
Do not block the ventilation gap in
the appliance as this would impair
the efficiency of the appliance, increase
the electricity consumption and could
cause damage to the appliance.
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges (am-
bient temperatures). It must not be
used in ranges for which it is not de-
signed. The climate range for your ap-
pliance is stated on the data plate in-
side the appliance. Installing it in a
room with too low an ambient tempera-
ture will lead to the appliance switching
off for longer periods so that it cannot
maintain the required temperature.
Never use steam cleaning appara-
tus to defrost or clean the appli-
ance. The steam could attack the elec-
trical components and cause a short
circuit.
Warning and safety instructions
7

In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the appli-
ance and its surroundings in a clean
condition at all times. Any damage
which may be caused by cockroaches
or other vermin will not be covered by
the appliance guarantee.
Disposal of old appliances
Before disposing of an old appli-
ance first make the door latch or
lock unusable.
This way you will prevent children from
accidentally locking themselves in and
endangering their lives.
Before disposing of an old appli-
ance, unplug it and render the plug
useless. Cut off the cable directly be-
hind the appliance and at the plug to
prevent misuse.
Be careful not to damage any part
of the pipework whilst awaiting dis-
posal, e.g. by
–puncturing the refrigerant channels
in the evaporator.
–bending any pipework.
–scratching the surface coating.
Splashes of refrigerant can damage the
eyes.
The manufacturer cannot be held lia-
ble for damage caused by non-com-
pliance with these Warning and
safety instructions.

Operation

Temperature
Wine can be stored at a temperature of
between 5 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 storage unit approximately
two hours before drinking. Open the
wine to allow it to breathe and to de-
velop its aroma. After two hours red
wine will be at the correct temperature
for drinking.
If wine is stored at a temperature above
22 °C it will mature too quickly. How-
ever, wine should not be stored below
5 °C for a long period of time as it will
not mature fully at this low temperature.
Fluctuations in temperature put wine
under stress and interrupt the maturing
process. It is therefore very important to
maintain a constant temperature.
An ambient room temperature of 3 to
43 °C will ensure that a constant tem-
perature is maintainted in the wine stor-
age unit.
Safety feature
A thermostat prevents the temperature
in the wine storage unit falling below
2 °C. If the external temperature should
drop below this level, the heating in the
appliance switches on automatically to
keep the temperature inside as con-
stant as possible.
Temperature selection
The temperature is set using the two
buttons next to the temperature display.
Press the
–upper button: to raise the temper-
ature (it gets warmer)
–lower button: to reduce the tem-
perature (it gets colder)
The temperature being set will flash in
the display.
When pressing the buttons the follow-
ing are shown in the display:
– When first pressed the last tempera-
ture selected flashes.
– Each subsequent press of the button
adjusts the temperature shown in
1 °C steps.
–Keeping the button pressed in ad-
justs the temperature continually.
Approx. 5 seconds after letting go of
the button the current actual tempera-
ture in the unit is automatically shown.
The correct temperature and humidity
10

If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the appli-
ance is not very full and for approx.
24 hours if the appliance is full before
checking the temperature display as it
will take this long for the display to
show the accurate temperature of the
unit. If the temperature displayed is too
low or too high, then adjust the temper-
ature once more.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted from
5 °C to
22 °C.
Temperature display
During normal operation the tempera-
ture display on the control panel shows
the temperature inside the appliance.
If the temperature inside the appliance
is not within the range that the machine
is able to display, i.e. if it is not between
2 and 30 °C, then only bars will light up
in the temperature display.
The temperature display flashes, if
–a different temperature is being set,
–the temperature in the appliance is
4 °C too high or too low.
Temperature display brightness
The appliance is supplied with the
brightness of the temperature display
set as low as possible. However, if the
door is opened, a setting changed or if
the alarm is sounding, the temperature
display will appear much brighter for
approx. 1 minute.
The level of brightness can be adjusted
to be:
–Brighter: by pressing the alarm but-
ton and whilst holding it in, press the
upper button next to the temperature
display.
–Dimmer: by pressing the alarm but-
ton and whilst holding it in, press the
lower button next to the temperature
display
Humidity level
It is very important to store wine in an
atmosphere with a high humidity level
(60 - 70 %) so that the corks remain
moist on the outside. A refrigerator with
its low humidity level is therefore not the
best place to store wine. At a low hu-
midity level corks dry out from the out-
side and so do not seal the bottles as
tightly. This is why wine always has to
be stored on its side so that the wine
keeps the corks moist from the inside.
Air entering the bottle will inevitably
spoil the wine.
Ideal humidity levels can be maintained
inside the appliance as long as the am-
bient room temperature is between 15
and 35 °C.
Useful tip: Before serving, stand the
wine upright for at least two hours, or
the entire day if possible, to allow any
sediment to settle at the bottom of the
bottle.
The correct temperature and humidity
11

Air filtering with the active charcoal
filter and dynamic cooling
Wine keeps on maturing, depending on
the surrounding conditions. The length
of time for which wine can be kept in
good condition will therefore depend
not only on the temperature but also the
air quality. The active charcoal filter and
dynamic cooling system maintain the
air quality in the appliance. The dy-
namic 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.
Filtering the incoming air through the
active charcoal filter ensures that all the
air entering the appliance is fresh and
free of dust and smells. In addition, the
constant temperature which is evenly
distributed throughout the unit enables
you to store all your wine under exactly
the same excellent conditions.
Replace the active charcoal filter
with a new one once a year. Active
charcoal filters are available from
your dealer.
The correct temperature and humidity
12

Any vibration or movement of the bottle
can affect the wine by interrupting the
natural respiration process and so im-
pairing the taste.
As far as possible store bottles of the
same type of wine beside each other
on the same shelf. Removing a bottle of
one type will then leave the other types
undisturbed and will avoid the need to
move different bottles around.
Shelves
The shelves can support a maximum
load of up to 50 kg . The shelves slope
slightly towards the rear so that bottles
are stored securely and cannot slide
out towards the door.
You can adjust the height of the shelves
to suit your individual requirements. To
do this:
^Open the door by approx. 90°. Pull
the shelf out towards the front and re-
place it in another position.
Tip:
If you want the shelves spaced evenly
apart, it is best to start from the middle.
This is because there isn't a shelf run-
ner at the height of the door lock.
Descriptive labels
To identify your wine quickly and easily
use the labels supplied. They can be
placed on the wooden decor strips or
on the inner door.
Maximum capacity
The following data was obtained using
standard Bordeaux wine bottles and
the number of shelves supplied with the
appliance.
–KWL 1090 S: up to 115 bottles
–KWL 1630 S: up to 169 bottles
– KWL 1900 S: up to 196 bottles
Storing wine bottles
13

Your appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature cannot rise or fall unno-
ticed and impair the wine. The alarm
system is always active. It does not
need to be activated separately.
Temperature alarm
An 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 dis-
play will flash at the same time.
The alarm will sound and the tempera-
ture display will flash:
– when you switch the appliance on
and for as long as the temperature
differs as described above from the
temperature set.
– when there has been a lengthy inter-
ruption to the power supply.
Door alarm
The alarm will sound if the door is left
open for longer than 3 minutes.
Switching the alarm tone off
early
Once the set temperature has been
reached in the appliance the alarm tone
stops and the temperature is displayed
constantly. However, if the noise dis-
turbs you, you can switch the alarm
tone off before this if you wish.
^Press the alarm button.
The alarm stops. The temperature
display continues to flash, until the
door has been shut again or the set
temperature has been reached. It
then lights up constantly and the
alarm system will be fully active once
more.
Alarm
14

Condensate and frost can build up on
the back wall of the appliance whilst it
is in use. These are automatically re-
moved and defrosted by the appliance.
The condensate is drained away via a
channel and drain hole into an evapora-
tion system at the back of the appli-
ance.
Ensure that the condensate channel
and drain hole are never blocked so
that condensate can flow away with-
out hindrance.
Defrosting
15

Never use cleaning agents contain-
ing abrasive substances such as
sand, soda, acids or chemical sol-
vents.
"Non-abrasive" cleaning agents are
also unsuitable as they can cause
matt areas to appear.
Make sure that no water can pene-
trate into the electronic unit or into
the light.
Do not let water get into the drain-
age channel and drain hole when
cleaning.
Never use steam cleaning appara-
tus to clean the appliance. The
steam could attack the electrical
components and cause a short cir-
cuit.
The data plate located inside the ap-
pliance must not be removed. It con-
tains information which is required in
the event of a service call.
Before cleaning
^Switch off the appliance and remove
the plug. (Do not pull on the cable,
only on the plug).
^Take out any removable parts e.g.
shelves for cleaning.
Cleaning the outer casing, the
interior and accessories
Use lukewarm water and a little wash-
ing up liquid. Accessories and shelves
should be hand washed only.
^Clean the condensate channel and
drain hole frequently, so that conden-
sate can drain away unhindered. Use
a straw or similar to clear the drain if
necessary.
^After cleaning, wipe the outer casing,
the interior and accessories with a
damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.
Leave the door open to air the appli-
ance for a short while.
E-Cloth
^A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available
from the Miele UK Spare Parts De-
partment, Part Number 980 13530,
which is suitable for cleaning sur-
faces such as stainless steel, glass,
plastic and chrome without the use of
chemicals.
Ventilation gaps
^The ventilation gaps should be
cleaned on a regular basis with a
brush or vacuum cleaner. A build up
of dust will increase the appliance's
energy consumption.
Cleaning and care
16

Door seals
Do not use any oils or grease on the
door seals as these will cause the
seals to deteriorate and become po-
rous with time.
The door seals should be cleaned reg-
ularly with clean water and then wiped
dry with a soft cloth.
Metal grille at the back of the
appliance
The metal grille at the back of the appli-
ance (heat exchanger) should be
dusted at least once a year. A build up
of dust will increase the energy con-
sumption of the appliance.
When cleaning the grille, make sure
that the pipework and other compo-
nents do not get broken or damaged
in any way.
Active charcoal filter
Replace the active charcoal filter once
a year. The filters are available from
your dealer.
^To remove the active charcoal filter
turn it anti-clockwise and pull it out.
^To replace, insert the filter and turn it
firmly clockwise.
After cleaning
^Replace all shelves and accessories
in the appliance.
^Plug in the appliance and switch it
on.
Cleaning and care
17

Repairs to electrical appliances
should only be carried out by a suit-
ably qualified and competent person
in accordance with local and na-
tional safety regulations. Unauthor-
ised repairs could be dangerous.
The following can be corrected without
contacting the Miele Service Depart-
ment:
What to do if . . .
. . . strange noises can be heard after
switching on the appliance, espe-
cially after it has just been installed.
^Check to see whether any pieces of
furniture next to the appliance are vi-
brating whilst the appliance is in op-
eration.
Switch the appliance off then:
^Check whether the appliance is
aligned correctly.
^Check whether all parts at the rear of
the appliance are free from hin-
drance. Remove any hindrance.
^Check that the cable clips have been
unclipped from the back of the appli-
ance before installation. They could
vibrate when the appliance is operat-
ing.
^Are all removable parts securely lo-
cated in the appliance?
Remember that the noise of the com-
pressor and the coolant circulating in
the system is unavoidable.
. . . the appliance does not get cool.
^Check that the appliance is switched
on. The temperature display must be
lit up.
^Check that the plug is correctly in-
serted in the socket.
^Check that the fuse is not defective
and that the mains fuse has not
blown. If it has contact the Miele Ser-
vice Department
. . . the appliance is switching in too
frequently and for too long.
^Check whether ventilation gaps have
been covered over or become too
dusty.
^Check whether, the metal grille (heat
exchanger) at the rear of the appli-
ance has become too dusty.
^The appliance door has been
opened too frequently.
^Check that the door closes properly.
. . . the alarm sounds and the temper-
ature display flashes.
^Check whether the door has been left
open for longer than 3 minutes.
If this is not the case, then the tempera-
ture has risen higher than the tempera-
ture set due to:
^the door being opened too often.
^a blocked ventilation gap.
^a lengthy interruption to the power
supply.
