Warning and Safety instructions
Technical safety
Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance and re‐ pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.
A damaged dishwasher is dangerous. Check it for any recognisa‐ ble damage. Never install or attempt to use a damaged appliance.
The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety re‐ quirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the electrical installa‐ tion tested by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
The dishwasher must only be plugged into the electricity supply via a suitable switched socket. The electrical socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be discon‐ nected from the electricity supply at any time.
There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher. Dan‐ ger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against a plug.
The dishwasher must not be installed under a hob. The high radi‐ ant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a hob could damage the dishwasher. For the same reason it should not be instal‐ led next to open fires or other appliances which give off heat, such as heaters etc.
To avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher, make sure that the connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequen‐ cy) match the mains electricity supply before connecting the dish‐ washer to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Do not connect the dishwasher to the mains supply until it has been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door springs.
