Overview
The Miele KF 2982 SF is a built-in refrigerator-freezer with the freezer mounted at the bottom, which puts the fresh-food compartment at eye level. Total usable capacity is 19.42 cubic feet, split into 13.88 cubic feet of refrigerator and 5.54 cubic feet of freezer. It runs on 110 to 120 volts at 60 Hz, and the icemaker needs a mains water connection. Three temperature zones are set from a MasterSensor color touch display. In the Miami, New York, Houston, Los Angeles and San Diego metro areas, booking entries should carry the symptom (noise, leak or warm food), the full rating-label number and any message on the display.
The SF configuration carries stainless steel and CleanSteel fronts, which resist fingerprints and suit a panel-free kitchen. The French-door fridge section opens as two leaves, so the freezer drawer below stays shut while you reach for food. Three temperature zones and a touch display let you set the fresh-food section and the freezer separately, which helps when one side of the kitchen runs warmer. Day to day, a warm fresh-food complaint should be read against the zone settings before anything else.
