Caring for the environment
6
Disposing of the packaging
material
The packaging material is used for
handling and protects the appliance
from transport damage. The packaging
material used is selected from materials
which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material
reduces the use of raw materials. Use
material-specific collection points for
valuable materials and take advantage
of return options. Your Miele dealer will
take the packaging material away.
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
territory) 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
7
This washing machine complies with all current local and national
safety requirements. However, inappropriate use can lead to
personal injury and damage to property.
Read the operating instructions carefully before using the washing
machine. They contain important information on safety,
installation, use and maintenance. This prevents both personal
injury and damage to the washing machine.
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 washing machine as well as the safety
instructions and warnings.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage caused by non-compliance
with these instructions.
Keep these operating instructions in a safe place and pass them
on to any future owner.
Correct application
 This washing machine is intended for use in domestic households
and similar working and residential environments.
 The washing machine is not intended for outdoor use.
 It must be used only as a domestic appliance to wash items which
are specified by the manufacturer as being washable on the wash
care label. Miele cannot be held liable for damage resulting from
incorrect or improper use or operation.

Warning and Safety instructions
8
 The washing machine can only be used by people with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or
knowledge, if they are supervised whilst using it or have been shown
how to use it safely and recognise and understand the
consequences of incorrect operation.
Safety with children
 Children under 8 years of age must be kept away from the
washing machine unless they are constantly supervised.
 Children 8 years and older may only use the washing machine
unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it safely and
recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect operation.
 Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the washing
machine unsupervised.
 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 “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
connection data on the data plate (fuse rating, voltage and
frequency) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.

Warning and Safety instructions
9
 Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power
supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronised
with the mains power supply (e.g. island networks, back-up systems)
is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply
system complies with the specifications of EN50160 or an
equivalent standard.
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
synchronised with the mains power supply, or these measures must
be replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described,
for example, in the current version of BS OHSAS 18001–2 ISO
45001.
 The electrical safety of this washing 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 wiring system of the building tested by a
qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
 Do not connect the washing machine to the mains electricity
supply 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
original spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele
guarantee the safety standards of the machine.
 The electrical socket must be easily accessible after installation so
that the machine can be disconnected from the electricity supply if
necessary.

Warning and Safety instructions
10
 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
warranty.
 While the washing machine is under warranty, repairs should only
be undertaken by a Miele authorised service technician. Otherwise
the warranty will be invalidated.
 If the electrical connection cable is faulty it must only be replaced
by a Miele authorised service technician to protect the user from
danger.
 The machine must be isolated from the electricity supply when
cleaning and maintaining the machine and in the event of a fault.
 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.
 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 warranty.
 The machine must not be used in a non-stationary location (e.g.
on a ship).
 Do not make any alterations to the machine, unless authorised to
do so by Miele.
