Before connecting the appliance, make sure that the connection
data on the data plate (voltage and rated load) matches the mains
electricity supply.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
~
Completely remove and uncoil the connection cable from its
storage compartment.
~
If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a
Miele cable by a Miele approved service technician only.
~
Do not use the steam ironing system if the ironing board cover is
damaged.
A damaged ironing board cover could be dangerous.
Do not use the steam ironing system without a fitted ironing board
cover.
The ironing board cover can be ordered as an Original Miele spare
part.
~
The electrical safety of this steam ironing system can only be
guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing 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 electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
~
Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by a
multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
~
This appliance complies with all relevant local and national safety
requirements. Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen
dangers for the user, for which Miele cannot accept liability. Repairs
should only be undertaken by a Miele approved service technician.
