Warning and safety instructions

To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine please read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. They contain important information on its safety, use and maintenance.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future owner of the machine.

Correct usage

Only use the washing machine to wash items which are specified by

the manufacturer to be machine-wash- able on the wash-care label, and tex- tiles composed of hand-washable wool or wool blend fabrics as well as satin, lace, silk and other hand-washable garments.

Any other applications may be danger- ous. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use or operation.

This machine is not a toy! To avoid the risk of injury do not allow children to play on or near it or to play with the controls. Supervise its use by the elderly or infirm.

Technical safety

Before setting up the machine, check it for any externally visible

damage. Do not install and use a damaged machine.

Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on

the data plate (voltage and connected

load) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

The electrical safety of this machine can only be guaranteed

when continuity is complete between the machine and an effective earthing system which complies with local and national regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and where there is any doubt the household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead. Extension leads do not guarantee the required safety of the machine (e.g. danger of overheating).

The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements.

Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved technician.

Ensure current is not supplied to the appliance until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

The machine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply

when:

–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or

–it is switched off at the mains, or

–the mains fuse is withdrawn.
