Technical safety
Before setting up the washing
machine, check it for any externally
visible damage.
Do not install or use a damaged
washing machine.
Before connecting the washing
machine, ensure that the
connection data on the data plate
(voltage and connected load) match
the mains electricity supply. If in any
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this
washing machine can only be
guaranteed when continuity is complete
between it and an effective earthing
system which complies with current
local and national safety regulations. It
is most important that this basic safety
requirement is present and regularly
tested, and where there is any doubt
the household wiring system should be
inspected by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable
for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the washing
machine to the mains electricity
supply by an extension lead. Extension
leads do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
Faulty components must only be
replaced by genuine Miele original
spare parts. Only when these parts are
fitted can the safety standards of the
machine be guaranteed.
Unauthorised repairs could result
in unforeseen dangers for the user,
for which Miele cannot accept liability.
Repairs should only be undertaken by a
Miele approved service technician.
Ensure current is not supplied to the
machine until after maintenance or
repair work has been carried out.
If the connection cable is faulty it
must only be replaced by a Miele
approved service technician to protect
the user from danger.
In the event of a fault or for
cleaning purposes, the washing
machine is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or
– it is switched off at the mains, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or the
screw-out fuse is removed (in
countries where this is applicable).
This washing machine must only
be connected to the on-site water
supply using a new hose kit. Old hoses
must not be re-used.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
machine and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage which may be caused by
cockroaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the machine guarantee.
