IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
This fryer complies with all current local and national safety re-
quirements. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal in-
jury and material damage.
Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before
using the fryer. They contain important information on safety, in-
stallation, use, and maintenance. This prevents both personal in-
jury and damage to the fryer.
In accordance with standard IEC60335-1, Miele expressly and
strongly advises that you read and follow the instructions in the
chapter on installing the fryer as well as in the “IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
Miele cannot be held liable for injury or damage caused by non-
compliance with these instructions.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY

Appropriate use
 This fryer is designed for domestic use and for use in similar envi-
ronments.
 This fryer is not intended for outdoor use.
 This fryer is intended for domestic use only to cook food. All other
types of use are not permitted.
 This fryer can only be used by people with reduced physical, sen-
sory, or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they are supervised while using it. They may only use it unsupervised
if they have been shown how to do so in a safe manner. They must
be able to understand and recognize the possible dangers caused
by incorrect operation.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety with children
 Do not leave children unattended: Children should not be alone or
unsupervised in the area where the appliance is installed. Do not al-
low them to sit or stand on the appliance.
 Children should be supervised in the vicinity of the fryer. Never al-
low children to play with the fryer.
 The fryer gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while
after being switched off. Keep children away from the fryer until it
has cooled down and there is no danger of burning.
 Danger of burning. Do not store anything which might arouse a
child’s interest in storage areas above or behind the fryer. Otherwise
they could be tempted to climb onto the fryer.
 Danger of suffocation. While playing, children may become entan-
gled in packaging material (such as plastic wrapping) or pull it over
their head, presenting the risk of suffocation. Keep packaging mate-
rial away from children.
 Ensure that children cannot reach the drain tap and drain out any
contents that are still hot.

Technical safety
 Proper installation: Make sure that your appliance has been in-
stalled correctly and that it has been grounded by a qualified techni-
cian.
 Maintenance by the user: Never repair or replace any part of the
appliance unless the instructions specifically recommend doing so.
Service work should only be performed by a qualified technician.
 Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re-
pairs must only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician.
 Damage to the fryer can compromise your safety. Check the fryer
for visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged fryer.
 Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power sup-
ply system or a power supply system that is not synchronized with
the grid power supply (e.g., island networks, back-up systems) is
possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply sys-
tem complies with national and local codes.
The function and operation of the protective measures provided in
the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must
also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply, or these measures must be
replaced by equivalent measures in the installation.
 The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly grounded. It is essential that this basic safety require-
ment is fulfilled. If in doubt, the electrical installation should be
checked by a qualified electrician.
 The connection data (voltage and frequency) on the data plate of
the fryer must match the domestic electrical supply in order to avoid
the risk of damage to the fryer.
Compare this data before connecting the appliance. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Power bars and extension cords do not guarantee the required
safety of the appliance (risk of fire). Do not use these to connect the
fryer to the domestic electrical supply.
 For safety reasons, this fryer may only be used after it has been
built in.
 This fryer must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g., on a
ship).
 Any contact with live connections or tampering with the electrical
or mechanical components of the fryer will endanger your safety and
may lead to appliance malfunctions.
Do not open the fryer housing under any circumstances.
 While the appliance is under warranty, repairs should only be un-
dertaken by a service technician authorized by Miele Customer Ser-
vice. Otherwise the warranty will be invalidated.
 Defective components should be replaced by Miele original parts
only. Only with these parts can safety of the appliance be assured as
intended by the manufacturer.
 The fryer is not intended for use with an external timer switch or a
remote-control system.
 If the electrical plug has been removed or the power cord is not
supplied with an electrical plug, the fryer must be connected to the
domestic electrical supply by a qualified electrician.
 If the power cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by a quali-
fied service technician (see “Installation–Electrical connection”).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 During installation, maintenance, and repair work, the fryer must
be completely disconnected from the domestic electrical supply. It is
only completely isolated from the supply when:
- The circuit breakers have been switched off, or
- The fuses of the electrical installation have been completely re-
moved, or
- The plug (if present) is removed from the socket. To do this, pull
the plug, not the power cord.
 Danger of electric shock. Do not use the fryer if it is damaged or if
it suffers damage during use. Switch it off immediately. Disconnect
the fryer from the domestic electrical supply. Contact Customer Ser-
vice.
 If the fryer is built in behind a cabinet front (e.g., a door), do not
close the door while the fryer is in use. Heat and moisture can build
up behind the cabinet front when closed. This can result in damage
to the fryer, the housing unit, and the floor. Do not close the cabinet
front until the residual heat indicators go out.

Correct use
 DO NOT TOUCH THE APPLIANCE OR AREAS NEAR THE APPLI-
ANCE – The appliance may be hot even though it is dark in color. Ar-
eas near the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns.
During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable
materials contact the appliance or areas near it until they have had
sufficient time to cool.
 Storage in or on the appliance: Flammable materials should not be
stored in an oven or in the vicinity of the appliance.
 Never leave the appliance unattended at high heat settings–
Boilover causes smoking and greasy spillovers that may ignite.
 Do Not Use Water on Grease Fires–Smother fire or flame or use
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
 Wear Proper Apparel–Loose-fitting or hanging garments should
never be worn while using the appliance.
 Use Only Dry Potholders–Moist or damp potholders on hot sur-
faces may result in burns from steam. Do not let potholder touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth.
 Wet sponges or cloths can cause burns due to hot steam if they
are used to wipe spilled food off a hot appliance. Some cleaning
agents can emit hazardous vapors if they are applied to a hot sur-
face. Be careful when cleaning the appliance.
 Use extreme caution when disposing of hot grease
 The fryer gets hot when in use and remains hot for quite a while
after being switched off. There is a danger of burning until the resid-
ual heat indicators go out.
 Due to the high temperatures radiated, objects left near the fryer
could catch fire. Do not use the fryer to heat up the room.
