IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
11

Do not use a power strip or extension cord to connect the range
to electricity. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee the
required level of appliance safety.

This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile
installations (e.g. on a ship).

Danger of electric shock!
Under no circumstances open the outer casing of the appliance.

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless
specifically recommended in the operating instructions. All other
servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.

Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can the manufacturer guarantee the
safety of the appliance.

During installation, maintenance and repair work, e.g. if the oven
lighting is broken (see "Frequently asked questions"), the range must
be completely disconnected from the household electricity supply.
The gas supply must be shut off. Ensure that this is the case by:
– removing the fuse,
– "tripping" the circuit breaker, or
– unplugging the unit. Pull the plug not the cord.
– Shut off the gas supply and, if necessary, disconnect the range
from the gas line. Installation and maintenance of the gas
connection must be performed by qualified installers, service
agencies or gas providers.

If the range is installed behind a cabinet door, do not close the
door while the appliance is in operation. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the closed door and cause damage to the range and to
the surrounding cabinets and flooring. Do not close the door until
the appliance has completely cooled down.
