Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing
material
The packaging is designed to protect
the washing machine from damage dur‐
ing transportation. The packaging ma‐
terials 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 manufactur‐
ing process and also reduces the
amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure
that any plastic wrappings, bags etc.
are disposed of safely and kept out of
the reach of babies and young children.
Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old appli‐
ance
Electrical and electronic appliances of‐
ten contain materials which, if handled
or disposed of incorrectly, could be po‐
tentially hazardous to human health and
to the environment. They are, however,
essential for the correct functioning of
your appliance. Therefore, please do
not dispose of your old appliance with
your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local com‐
munity waste collection / recycling cen‐
tre.
Ensure that your old appliance presents
no danger to children while being stor‐
ed for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions
7
This washing machine complies with current safety requirements.
Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and dam‐
age to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the machine, please
read these instructions carefully before using it for the first time.
They contain important information on its safety, use and mainte‐
nance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and ensure that new users
are familiar with the content. Pass them on to any future user.
Correct application
 This washing machine is designed for domestic use and for use in
similar environments by guests in hotel or motel rooms, bed &
breakfasts and other typical living quarters. This does not include
common/shared facilities or commercial facilities within hotels, mo‐
tels or bed & breakfasts.
 The washing machine is not suitable for outdoor use.
 It must only be used to wash garments which have been declared
suitable for washing by the manufacturer indicated on the garment
care label. Any other use is not permitted. Miele cannot be held lia‐
ble for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.
 This washing machine is not intended for use by persons (includ‐
ing children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning its use by a person responsible
for their safety.

Warning and Safety instructions

Safety with children
 Young children must not be allowed to use this appliance.
 Older children may only use the appliance when its operation has
been clearly explained to them and they are able to use it safely, rec‐
ognising the dangers of misuse.
 Cleaning work may only be carried out by older children under the
supervision of an adult.
 Please supervise children in the vicinity of the washing machine
and do not let them play with it.
Technical safety
 Please observe the instructions in "Installation and connection"
and "Technical data".
 Before setting up the washing machine, check it for any externally
visible damage. Do not install or use a damaged machine.
 Before connecting the washing machine, ensure that the connec‐
tion data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency)
matches the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a quali‐
fied electrician.
 Reliable and safe operation of this washing machine can only be
assured if it has been connected to the mains electricity supply.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
 The electrical safety of this washing machine can only be guaran‐
teed when continuity is complete between it and an effective earth‐
ing system which complies with current local and national safety
regulations. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is
present and regularly tested and, where there is any doubt, the
household wiring system should be inspected by a qualified electri‐
cian. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inade‐
quate 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 spare
parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety of the appliance when
Miele replacement parts are used.
 The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation
so that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply
if necessary.
 Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers for the
user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician, otherwise any
subsequent damage will not be covered by the warranty.
 If the connection cable is faulty, it must only be replaced by a
Miele approved service technician to protect the user from danger.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 In the event of a fault or for cleaning purposes, the washing ma‐
chine is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is withdrawn, or
– it is switched off at the mains circuit breaker.
 The machine must only be connected to the on-site water supply
using a new hose kit. Old hose kits must not be re-used. Check the
condition of the hoses regularly so that you can replace them in
good time and avoid the risk of any water damage.
 The water flow pressure must be at least 100 kPa and should not
exceed 1000 kPa.
 This washing machine must not be installed and operated in mo‐
bile installations (e.g. on a ship).
 In areas which may be subject to infestation by cockroaches or
other vermin, pay particular attention to keeping the machine and its
surroundings in a clean condition at all times. Any damage which
may be caused by cockroaches or other vermin will not be covered
by the machine warranty.
 Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
