The Miele "Waterproof system" pro
-
tects from water damage provided
the following conditions have been met:
–
the machine is correctly plumbed in
and connected to the electricity sup
-
ply.
–
if a fault has been identified, the ma
-
chine must be examined by a com
-
petent person before further use,
and repaired if necessary.
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.
If the connection cable is damaged
it must be replaced by a special
Miele cable.
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the appli-
ance 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 appliance guarantee.
Use
This equipment is not designed for
maritime use, or for use in mobile
installations such as caravans, aircraft
etc. However, it may be suitable for
such usage subject to a risk assess
-
ment of the installation being carried
out by a suitably qualified engineer.
Do not install your washing ma
-
chine in rooms where temperatures
below freezing may occur. Frozen
hoses may burst under pressure. The
reliability of the electronic control sys
-
tem may be impaired at temperatures
below freezing point.
Before using the machine for the
first time, check that the transit fit
-
ting at the rear of the machine has been
removed (see section on "Installation").
During spinning, a transit fitting which is
still in place may result in damage to
both the machine and adjacent furni
-
ture or appliances.
Turn off the stopcock if the ma-
chine is to be left for any length of
time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is
no floor drain (gully) in the immediate
vicinity.
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a
wash basin, check that the water can
drain off quickly enough to prevent the
sink from overflowing.
Make sure the drain hose is secure, so
that the force of the water flowing out of
the hose does not dislodge it. Other
-
wise this will result in flooding.
Take care to ensure that foreign ob
-
jects (e.g. nails, needles, coins,
paper clips, etc.) do not find their way
into the machine with the washing (e.g.
in pockets). These may damage com
-
ponents of the machine (e.g. suds con
-
tainer, drum), which in turn can result in
damage to the washing.
