Warning and Safety instructions

Before connecting the washing machine, ensure that the connec-
tion data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) match
the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-
trician.
Reliable and safe operation of this washing machine can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.
The electrical safety of this washing machine can only be guaran-
teed when correctly earthed.
It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any
doubt, please have the wiring system of the building tested by a
qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the washing machine to the mains electricity sup-
ply by a multi-socket adapter, extension lead or similar. These do not
guarantee the required safety of the machine (fire hazard due to the
risk of overheating).
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-
ginal spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guaran-
tee the safety standards of the machine.
The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so
that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply if
necessary.
