Warning and safety instructions

If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine should not need to be descaled. If, however,

you do wish to descale the machine only use proprietary non-corrosive descaling agents and strictly observe the manufacturer’s instructions given on the packaging. If in doubt, contact the Miele Customer Service Dept. or your Miele Dealer.

Textiles which have been pre-treated in solvent-based clean-

ing agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being washed in the machine.

Never use solvent-based cleaning agents in this machine, as this may

result in damage to component parts and create toxic fumes. Such deter- gents also pose a fire and explosion hazard.

Only use dyes specified by the manufacturer as being suitable for

use in a domestic washing machine. Al- ways observe the manufacturer's in- structions carefully.

Colour run and dye removers con- tain sulphur compounds which can

cause damage such as corrosion. Do not use these products in this machine.

Always make sure the drum is sta- tionary before reaching in to re-

move laundry. Reaching into a moving drum is extremely dangerous.

Accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele.

If other parts are used, guarantee, per- formance and product liability claims may be invalidated.

Disposal of your old machine

Before discarding an old machine unplug it. Render the plug useless.

Cut off the cable directly behind the ap- pliance to prevent misuse. This should be done by a competent person.
