Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety
Before installing and operating the washing machine, check it for
any visible exterior damage. Do not set up or use a damaged
washing machine.
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, when there is any doubt, the on-site wiring
system should be inspected by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs
must only be carried out by a Miele authorised service technician,
otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the
warranty.
Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the washing
machine must be isolated from the electricity supply. It is only
completely isolated if:
– it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or
– the mains fuse is disconnected, or
– it is switched off at the mains circuit breaker.
