To avoid machine and material
damage
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir
with powder or liquid detergent.
This will cause serious damage to the
reservoir.
Inadvertently filling the salt reser-
voir with powder or liquid dish-
washer detergent always leads to seri-
ous damage to the water softener.
Make sure you have picked up the cor-
rect packet of dishwasher salt before
filling the salt reservoir!
Do not use commercial or industrial
detergents as these may damage
material and there is a risk of severe
chemical reaction.
The Miele Waterproof System offers
protection from water damage, pro-
vided the following conditions are met:
– The dishwasher is correctly installed
and plumbed in.
– The dishwasher is properly main-
tained and parts are replaced where
it can be seen that this is necessary.
– The stopcock has been turned off
when the appliance is not used for a
longer period of time (e.g. during
holidays).
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation
by cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the appli-
ance and its surroundings in a clean
condition at all times. Any damage
which may be caused by cockroaches
or other vermin will not be covered by
the appliance guarantee.
Repairs and maintenance
Repairs may only be carried out by
suitably qualified and competent
engineers in accordance with local and
national safety requirements. Repairs
and other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous.
Always disconnect the appliance
from the electrical supply for main-
tenance work (switch off at wall socket
and remove the plug, or remove the
screw out fuse in countries where this is
applicable).
Disposal of your old appliance
When disposing of an old dish-
washer first make it unusable. Dis-
connect, cut off the cable and the plug
from the cable. Make the door lock in-
operative by unscrewing 2 cross-slotted
screws, so that children cannot acci-
dentally shut themselves in. Make ap-
propriate arrangements for the disposal
of the appliance.
The manufacturer cannot be held lia-
ble for damage caused by non-com-
pliance with these Warning and
Safety instructions.
