IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
9
Technical safety
Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re-
pairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorized 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 the dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when correctly grounded. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is fulfilled. If in doubt, the electrical installation should
be checked by a qualified service technician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
or lack of grounding system (e.g., electric shock).
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronized with
the grid power supply (e.g., island networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply sys-
tem complies with national and local codes.
The function and operation of the protective measures provided in
the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must
also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply, or these measures must be
replaced by equivalent measures in the installation.
Where the dishwasher is plugged into the electricity supply using
a 3-pin plug with a grounding contact, the electrical 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 behind the dishwasher be-
cause the building-in niche may be too small. Danger of overheating
and fire risk if the dishwasher were to be pushed up against a plug.
