WARNING - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
Technical Safety
Check the packaging, the washer and accessories for any signs of
damage. Do not use a damaged appliance.
Before connecting the machine, ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (circuit protection, voltage and frequency) match the mains electrical supply. If in doubt contact an electrician.
The appliance must be grounded. It is imperative that this basic
safety requirement be met.
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electrical supply with an
extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
The machine is built in accordance with current safety requirements.
Incorrectly repaired machines may pose a considerable risk to the user which is not covered by the manufacturer. Repairs should only be performed by a Miele approved technician.
Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance while maintenance or
repair work is being performed. The machine is only completely isolated from the electrical supply when it is turned off at the main switch and the plug is pulled or by tripping the circuit breaker.
Connect the washer, to the water mains. Do not use old hoses.
Inspect the intake hoses regularly for damage. They should be replaced as needed to prevent water damage.
Faulty components must only be replaced with genuine Miele spare
parts to maintain safety standards.
If the power cord is damaged it must only be replaced by a Miele
Service technician with a genuine Miele power cord.
