IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11
The plastic housing of the water connection contains an electrical
valve. The housing must not be dipped in water.
There are live wires in the water-intake hose. Do not shorten the
hose, even if it is too long.
The built-in Waterproof system offers reliable protection against
water damage if the following conditions are met:
- Installation has been carried out correctly.
- The dishwasher is properly maintained and parts are replaced in
case of noticeable damage.
- The water-supply faucet is turned off during longer absences from
the home (e.g., while on vacation).
The Waterproof system will work even when the dishwasher is
turned off. However, the dishwasher must remain connected to the
electricity supply.
The water-connection pressure needs to be between 7.25 and
145 psi (50 and 1,000 kPa).
A damaged dishwasher could be dangerous. If the dishwasher
gets damaged, turn it off at the electricity supply immediately and
contact your Miele dealer or Miele Customer Service.
The manufacturer’s warranty may be invalidated if the appliance is
not repaired to Miele authorized service standards.
We recommend replacing defective components with original
parts. If original Miele parts are installed correctly, Miele ensures full
compliance with safety requirements and the warranty remains valid.
During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the dishwasher
must be disconnected from the electricity supply (turn it off and with-
draw the plug from the socket).
