When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before installation or use of the coffee system.
Please read these instructions
carefully to prevent accidents and
machine damage.
This appliance is for household use
only. Any other use is not
recommended by the manufacturer
and could be dangerous.
This appliance complies with current
safety requirements. Improper use of
the appliance can cause personal
injury and material damage.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper use of the appliance.
Electrical safety
Before connecting the appliance to
the electrical supply, make sure
that the voltage and frequency listed on
the data plate correspond with the
household electrical supply. If in doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
Be certain your appliance is
properly installed and grounded by
a qualified technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this
appliance, continuity must exist
between the appliance and an effective
grounding system. It is imperative that
this basic safety requirement be met. If
there is any doubt, have the electrical
system of the house checked by a
qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by the lack, or
inadequacy, of an effective grounding
system.
The appliance must be built into
cabinetry before operation to
ensure that no electrical components
are accessible. Ensure that electrical
power is not supplied to the appliance
while installation work, repairs or
maintenance is performed.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect the appliance to electricity.
Extension cords do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance
(danger of overheating).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Never open the housing of the
appliance. Tampering with
electrical connections or components
and mechanical parts is dangerous and
may cause machine damage.
Before service or maintenance,
disconnect the power supply by
either removing the fuse, "tripping" the
circuit breaker or unplugging the unit.
Never use a steam cleaner to clean
the appliance. Pressurized steam
could damage electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
To protect against fire, electric
shock and injury do not submerge
the cord or plugs in water or other
liquids.
Do not operate the appliance if the
cord or plug has been damaged,
or if the appliance malfunctions or is
damaged in any way. Please contact
the Miele Technical Service
Department.
Do not let the cord hang over the
edge of the table or counter, or
touch hot surfaces.
Installation
Installation work and repairs should
only be performed by a trained
technician to ensure safety. Repairs
and other work by unauthorized
persons could be dangerous.
This equipment has not been
designed for maritime use or for
use in mobile installations such as
aircraft or recreational vehicles.
However, under certain circumstances
it may be possible for installation in
these applications. Please contact the
Miele Technical Service Department
with specific requirements.
Before the appliance is connected,
the steam selector must be in the
off position to prevent an uncontrolled
escape of steam or hot water and
possible burns.
Always attach the plug to the
appliance first, then plug the cord
into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn
the program selector to "Off", then
remove the plug from the wall outlet.

To prevent burns, turn the steam
selector to the "o" position when not
needed.
The steam nozzle and hot water
dispensers become very hot

fresh drinking water. The water
must be changed daily to prevent
bacteria or mold growth.
