Warning and Safety instructions
8
The electrical safety of this washer-dryer can only be guaranteed
when correctly earthed.
It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any
doubt, please have the household wiring system tested by a quali-
fied electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead, multi-socket adapter or similar. These can overheat
and are a fire hazard.
Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Repairs
should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician,
otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the guar-
antee.
Please observe the instructions in “Installation” and the “Technical
data”.
The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so
that the washer-dryer can be disconnected from the electricity sup-
ply if necessary.
The washer-dryer must be isolated from the electricity supply
when cleaning and maintaining the machine and in the event of a
fault.
The Miele “Water protection system” protects from water damage
provided the following conditions are met:
- The machine is correctly plumbed in and connected to the electri-
city supply.
- If a fault or damage has been identified, the washer-dryer must be
examined by a competent person before further use, and repaired
if necessary.
