~
Do not make any alterations to the
washing machine unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
Correct use
~
Do not install your washing machine
in rooms where temperatures below
freezing may occur. Frozen hoses may
burst or split. The reliability of the
electronic control unit may be impaired
at temperatures below freezing point.
~
Before using the washing machine
for the first time, check that the transit
bars at the rear of the machine have
been removed (see section on
"Installation"). During spinning, a transit
bar which is still in place may result in
damage to both the machine and
adjacent furniture or appliances.
~
Turn off the tap if the machine is to
be left for any length of time (e.g. holi-
day), especially if there is no floor drain
(gully) in the immediate vicinity.
~
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a wash
basin, check that the water can drain
off quickly enough to prevent the sink
from overflowing. Make sure the drain
hose is secure, so that the force of the
water flowing out of the hose does not
dislodge it.
~
Take care to ensure that foreign
objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper
clips) do not find their way into the
machine with the laundry. These may
damage components of the machine
(e.g. suds container, drum), which in
turn can result in damage to the
laundry.
