IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Use

Do not let children play in, on or near the washer. Do not let them play with the

controls or operate the unit. Close supervision of children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.

The drum door glass will be hot when washing at very high temperatures. Do

not touch the glass.

Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.

Do not drink washer water! Harmful residues could be present.

Chlorine or agents containing chlorine are corrosive and may cause permanent

damage to components of the machine.

Always follow the instructions of the chemical manufacturer when using cleaning agents and special application

chemicals. Only use such chemicals for the purpose and in the situation specified by the manufacturer. This will prevent the danger of adverse chemical reactions and material damage.

If in doubt, check with the manufacturer to be sure that the product is suitable for use in this machine.

Dyes, dye removers and descaling agents may only be used in this machine

if the manufacturer states they are suitable for use in a washing machine. Always observe the manufacturer’s instructions carefully.

Fabric softeners may be used with this machine. Follow the manufacturers

instructions.

Do not use high pressure cleaners to hose down the washer.

Check the hoses regularly for leaks to prevent water damage.

Do not tamper with the controls.

Additional information

Disinfecting and cleaning agents often contain chlorides (salts) which can

cause steel surfaces to rust. To protect the machine from rust damage, only use chloride free disinfecting and cleaning agents for washing/disinfecting and for cleaning the machine. If you are not sure about an agent contact Miele’s Professional Division. If you accidentally spill an agent containing chloride on the machine it should be rinsed off with water and dried with a soft cloth.

The manufacturer of the washer does not take responsibility for the effect of the

chemical on the laundry or the machine when a chemical cleaning agent is recommended on technical application grounds.

Keep the area around the machine clean and free of debris.

Before the appliance is removed for service or discarded, remove the door.

The interior of the machine should be cleaned periodically by a qualified

service agent.

Using accessories

Only use genuine Miele accessories. If other parts are used, guarantee,

performance and product liability claims may become void.

Ensure that any one operating this machine is familiar with these safety instructions.
