Caring for the environment
2
Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the appliance from damage during
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
use of raw materials in the
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites.
Disposing of cleaning and
descaling cartridges
Dispose of used Miele cleaning and
descaling cartridges in your household
waste.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
often contain valuable materials. They
also contain specific materials,
compounds and components, which
were essential for their correct function
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with your domestic waste
or if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local
community waste collection / recycling
centre for electrical and electronic
appliances, or contact your dealer or
Miele for advice. You are also
responsible (by law, depending on
country) for deleting any personal data
that may be stored on the appliance
being disposed of. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to
children while being stored prior to
disposal.

Technical safety
 Installation work or repairs should only be carried out by a Miele
authorised technician. Unauthorised or incorrect installation work or
repairs can pose considerable danger to users.
 A damaged coffee machine could be dangerous. Before building
in the machine, check it for any externally visible damage. Do not
use a damaged machine.
 To avoid the risk of damage to the machine, make sure the
connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate
corresponds to the household supply, before connecting the
machine to the mains supply. Consult a qualified electrician if in any
doubt.
 The electrical safety of this coffee machine can only be
guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard
safety requirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical
installation tested by a qualified electrician.
 Reliable and safe operation of the coffee machine can only be
guaranteed if it is connected to the mains electrical supply.
 Do not connect the machine to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket adapter or an extension lead. These are a fire hazard
and do not guarantee the required safety of the appliance.
 The coffee machine must not be used in a non-stationary location
(e.g. on a ship).
 For safety reasons, this machine may only be used when it has
been built in.
 If the coffee machine is to be built in above another appliance,
there must be a full-width, closed shelf between them (except when
it is combined with a suitable built-in plate/food warming drawer).
 Only use the coffee machine in rooms where the ambient
temperature is between +16°C and +38°C.
