IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
8
ʊ
To avoid the risk of damage to the dishwasher, make sure that the
connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage, and frequen‐
cy) matches the electrical supply before connecting the dishwasher
to the mains. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
ʊ
Do not connect the dishwasher to the electrical supply until it has
been fully installed and any adjustment has been made to the door
springs.
ʊ
The dishwasher may only be operated if the door opening mecha‐
nism is working correctly. Otherwise there could be a risk of danger
while the automatic door opening mechanism (depending on model)
is active.
To check that the door opening mechanism is working correctly:
– The door springs must be adjusted equally on both sides. They
are correctly adjusted when the door remains stationary when left
half open (approx. 45° opening angle). It is also important that the
door cannot fall open.
– The door locking pins automatically retract when the door opens
at the end of the drying phase.
ʊ
Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply by a multi-
socket adapter or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the re‐
quired safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
ʊ
This appliance must not be installed and operated in a non-sta‐
tionary location (e.g., on a ship).
ʊ
Do not install the dishwasher in a room where there is a risk of
frost. Frozen hoses may burst or split. The reliability of the electronic
module may be impaired at temperatures below freezing point.
ʊ
The water pressure (flow pressure at the connection point) must
be between 4.35 - 145 psi.
ʊ
A damaged appliance could be dangerous. If the dishwasher gets
damaged, turn off the electrical supply and contact Miele.
