IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use
Only use the washing machine to wash items which are specified by
the manufacturer to be machine washable on the fabric care label. Any other applications may cause undesirable results. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use of the appliance.
This appliance is not designed for maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational vehicles or aircraft. However, under certain conditions it may be possible for installation in these applications. Please contact the Miele Technical Service Department with specific requirements.
Do not install this machine in rooms where temperatures below freezing
may occur. Frozen hoses may burst under pressure. The reliability of the electronic control unit may be impaired at temperatures below freezing.
Do not wash articles that have been previously cleaned, washed
soaked or spotted with gasoline, organic substances
Before using the machine for the first time, check that the shipping struts at the rear of the machine have
been removed (see "Installation"). If the shipping struts are still in place during spinning, damage may result to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Turn off the water supply if the machine is to be left for any length
of time (e.g. vacation).
Overflow hazard! Check that the drain can
accommodate the water flow before operating the washer.
Make certain the drain hose is secured in the drain, otherwise the force of the expelled water could cause the drain hose to come out of the drain.
Be sure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper clips) do
not find their way into the machine. These items may damage the machine, which may also cause damage to the laundry.
