Warning and safety instructions
For
and disinfecting agents which have been approved by Miele. Foam can have an adverse effect on the disinfec- tion and cleaning process.
Where a chemical additive is rec- ommended on technical applica- tion grounds (for example with a clean- ing agent), this does not imply that the manufacturer of the machine takes re- sponsibility for the effect of the chemi-
cal on the material of the items being cleaned. Please be aware that changes in formulation, storage conditions etc, which may not be publicised by the chemical producer, can have a nega- tive effect on the cleaning result.
When using cleaning agents and specialised products it is essential
that the manufacturer’s instructions are followed. Only use the product for the application described by the manufac- turer, to avoid any material damage or the occurrence of strong chemical reac- tions such as oxyhydrogen.
The machine is designed only for operation with water and additive
cleaning agents. Organic solvents must not be used in the machine, as there is the danger under certain cir- cumstances of explosion. Although this is not the case with all organic sol- vents, other problems could arise with their use, for example damage to rub- ber and synthetic materials.
In critical applications where very stringent requirements have to be
met, it is strongly recommended that all the relevant factors for the process, such as cleaning agent, quality of water are discussed with the Miele Ap- plication Technology specialists.
If the cleaning result is subject to these particularly stringent require-
ments (e.g. chemical analysis, spe- cialised processes), a regular quality control test should be carried out by the user to ensure that required stand- ards of cleanliness are being achieved.
Please follow the advice on installa- tion in these instructions and the
separate Installation Instructions.
Empty any containers or utensils before arranging them in the ma-
chine.
Do not allow any remains of acids or solvents, or chloride solutions to
get into the wash cabinet. Similarly avoid any materials with a corrosive ef- fect.
The presence in compounds of any sol- vents should be minimal, (especially those in hazard class A1).
Ensure that solutions or steam con- taining acid salts do not come into
contact with the steel outer casing of the machine, to avoid any corrosion damage.
