Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

￿Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally visible damage.

Do not install or use a damaged washing machine.

￿Before connecting the washing 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 washing machine can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing system which complies with current local and national safety 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 washing machine 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).

￿Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can the safety standards of the machine be guaranteed.

￿Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be undertaken by a Miele approved service technician. Ensure current is not supplied to the machine until after maintenance or repair work has been carried out.

￿If the connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced by a Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.

￿In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the washing 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–it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or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–the mains fuse is withdrawn, or the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is applicable).

￿This washing machine must only be connected to the on-site water supply using a new hose kit. Old hoses must not be re-used.

￿In countries where there are areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine 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 guarantee.
