Warning and Safety instructions

Technical safety

Unauthorised installation, maintenance and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and
repairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorised technician.

Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before
using the dishwasher and in particular following transport, check it
for any visible damage. Never use a damaged dishwasher.

The electrical safety of this dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it and an effective earthing
system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present. If in doubt, the electrical installation should be checked by a
qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Reliable and safe operation of the dishwasher can only be assured
if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

The dishwasher must only be connected to the electricity supply
via a suitable switched socket. The socket must be easily accessible
after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from
the electricity supply at any time.

There must be no electrical sockets concealed behind the
dishwasher because the building-in niche may be too small, creating
a risk of overheating if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against
the plug (fire hazard).

The dishwasher must not be installed underneath a cooktop. The
high temperatures radiated by cooktops could damage the
dishwasher below. For the same reason, the dishwasher must not be
installed next to open fires or other appliances that give off heat,
such as heaters etc.
