IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
13
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cut-
lery is cleaned and dried more efficiently if placed in the basket with
the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place
knives and forks with the handles upwards.
Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water,
such as disposable plastic containers or plastic cutlery should not
be cleaned in the dishwasher. The high temperatures in the dish-
washer may cause them to melt or lose shape.
If you use the "FlexiTimer/Delay Start" option (depending on
model), make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dis-
penser and may not be thoroughly dispersed.
Please observe the information given in "Technical data" regarding
the capacity of the dishwasher.
Accessories
Use only genuine original Miele parts. If spare parts or acces-
sories from other manufacturers are used, the warranty may become
invalid.
Disposal of your old dishwasher
Make the door lock inoperative so that children cannot acciden-
tally shut themselves in. Remove or destroy the locking bracket of
the door lock, and make appropriate arrangements for the disposal
of the appliance.
