WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
Read all instructions before using the
appliance.
~
Check the packaging, the washer
and accessories for any signs of
damage. Do not use a damaged
appliance.
~
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment- grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
~
WARNING - Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
may result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
~
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit into
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
~
Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on the
data plate (fusing, voltage and
frequency) match the main electrical
supply. If in doubt contact an
electrician.
~
Do not use an extension cord to
connect this appliance to the power
supply. Extension cords do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~
Do not install your washing machine
in rooms where temperatures below
freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may
burst under pressure. The reliability of
the electronic control unit may be
impaired at temperatures below
freezing.
~
Do not install or store this appliance
where it will be exposed to the weather.
~
This appliance is not designed for
maritime use or for use in mobile
installations such as recreational
vehicles or aircraft. However, under
certain conditions it may be possible for
an installation in these applications.
Please contact the Miele Technical
Service Dept. with specific
requirements.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3
~
Do not install or use a washer with
visible damage.
~
Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any servicing
unless specifically recommended in
these operating instructions.
~
Ensure power is not supplied to the
appliance while maintenance or repair
work is being performed. The machine
is only completely isolated from the
electrical supply when it is turned off at
the main switch and the plug is pulled,
or by tripping the circuit breaker.
~
Connect the washer, to the water
mains. Do not use old hoses. Inspect
the intake hoses regularly for damage.
They should be replaced as needed to
prevent water damage.
~
Faulty components must only be
replaced with genuine Miele spare
parts.
~
If the power cord is damaged it
must only be replaced by a Miele
Service technician with a genuine Miele
power cord.
~
Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot water
system that has not been used for 2
weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS
EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has
not been used for such a period, turn
on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
~
Remove the door before the
appliance is removed for service or
discarded.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
Use

Make sure that no unattended
children can access the machine.
There is a potential danger that children
can be trapped in the drum. This may
cause major injuries or the death of the
child.
~
The drum door glass will be hot
when washing at very high
temperatures.
Do not touch the glass. Danger of
burns! Keep children away from the
washer when in use.
~
Only use the washing machine to
wash items which are specified by the
manufacturer to be machine washable
on the fabric care label. Any other
applications may be dangerous. The
manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
~

previously cleaned, washed, soaked or
spotted with gasoline, dry-cleaning
solvents or other flammable
substances. These articles give off
vapors that could ignite or explode. Do
