Warning and Safety instructions

Correct use
The maximum dry laundry weight for the PW514 is 14kg, and for
the PW520 it is 20kg. See the "Programme chart" for the maximum
recommended loads for individual programmes.
Before using the machine for the first time, ensure that the transit
bars have been removed (see "Installation - Removing the transit
bars"). During spinning, transit bars which are still in place can cause
damage to both the machine and adjacent furniture or appliances.
Never try to open the drum door of the washing machine using
force. The drum door can only be opened if appropriate information is
shown in the display.
Do not push back the soft mount drum of the machine while the
machine is running.
When closing the drum door there is a risk of injury between the
door frame and drum opening, as well as at the hinges.
Caution! The drum door is locked automatically when the machine is
started.
Turn off the tap if the machine is to be left for any length of time
(e.g. while on holiday), especially if there is no floor drain (gully) in the
immediate vicinity.
Take care to ensure that foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins,
paper clips) do not find their way into the machine with the laundry.
These may damage components of the machine (e.g. suds container,
drum). Damaged components can, in turn, result in damage to the
laundry.
If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the washing
machine should not need to be descaled. If, however, you do wish to
descale your washing machine, only use proprietary non-corrosive
descaling agents and strictly observe the instructions on the
packaging. Special descaling agent is available from Miele. Strictly
observe the instructions for the descaling agent.
Fabrics that have been pre-treated in solvent-based cleaning
agents must be thoroughly rinsed in clean water before being placed
in the machine. Note that solvent residues may only be discharged
into waste water in compliance with local legislation.
Never use solvent based cleaning agents, e.g. those containing
benzine, in this washing machine. This may result in damage to
component parts and create toxic fumes. Risk of fire and explosion!
Gasoline, petrol, paraffin, or any easily flammable liquid must not
be stored or used near the washing machine. Do not use the machine
lid as storage space.
