IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

~Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele spare parts.

~If the power cord is damaged it must only be replaced by a Miele Service technician with a genuine Miele power cord.

~Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes before using the washing machine. This will release any built-up hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time, the gas is flammable.
