Warning and Safety instructions
12
Make sure that no foreign objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper
clips) find their way into the machine with the laundry. In particular,
shake out any metal shavings which could be in the cleaning cloths
before washing. These can damage components of the machine
(e.g. suds container, drum). Damaged components can, in turn,
result in damage to the laundry.
If the correct amount of detergent is dispensed, the machine
should not need to be descaled. If, however, you do wish to descale
it, only use special non-corrosive descaling agents and strictly
observe the instructions on the packaging. Special descaling agent
is available from your Miele dealer or from Miele. Strictly observe the
instructions for the packaging.
For textiles that have been treated with solvent-based cleaning
agents, always check whether they can be washed in a washing
machine. To check whether this is possible, refer to safety notes,
information concerning the product's environmental compatibility,
and other information.
Never use solvent-based detergents, e.g. those containing
benzine, in this washing machine. This may result in damage to
component parts and create toxic fumes. Risk of fire and explosion!
Gasoline, petroleum, kerosene, paraffin, or any easily flammable
liquid must not be stored or used near the washing machine. Risk of
fire and explosion!
