Warning and safety instructions
To avoid the risk of damage to the machine and any accessories used with it caused by chemical agents, soiling and any reaction between the two please read the notes in "Chemical Processes and Technology".
Where a chemical agent is recommended on technical application grounds (e.g. a cleaning agent), this does not imply that the manufacturer of the machine accepts liability for the effect of the chemical on the items being cleaned.
Please be aware that changes in formulation, storage conditions etc. which may not be publicised by the chemical manufacturer, can have a negative effect on the cleaning result.
When using cleaning agents and specialised products it is essential that the manufacturer's instructions are followed. Chemicals must only be used for the purpose they are designed for and in the situation specified, to the exclusion of other chemicals, to avoid such dangers as chemical reactions and material damage.
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 chemical agents, water quality etc. are discussed with the Miele Application Technology specialists.
If the cleaning result is subject to particularly stringent requirements, a regular quality control test should be carried out by the user to ensure that required standards of cleanliness are being achieved.
Mobile units, modules and inserts should only be used for the purpose they are designed for.
Hollow instruments must be thoroughly cleaned, internally and externally.
Empty any containers or utensils before arranging them in the machine.
Do not allow any remains of acids or solvents, and in particular hydrochloric acid or chloride solutions, to get into the wash cabinet. Similarly avoid any materials with a corrosive effect. The presence in compounds of any solvents should be minimal (especially those in hazard class A1).
Ensure that solutions or steam containing hydrochloric acid do not come into contact with the steel outer casing of the machine, to avoid any corrosion damage.
Please follow the advice on installation in these instructions and the separate Installation Instructions.
Using accessories
Only use genuine Miele original accessories with this machine. Consult Miele on the type and application of such equipment.
Only use Miele mobile units, modules and inserts in this machine. Using accessories made by other manufacturers, or making modifications to Miele accessories, can result in unsatisfactory cleaning and disinfecting results, for which Miele cannot be held liable. Any resultant damage would also invalidate the machine guarantee.
