Warning and Safety instructions
Appliance faults
~
In there is any damage to the
appliance, it must be switched off and
disconnected from the mains supply
immediately. It must not be used again
until it has been repaired. Switch off at
the socket and withdraw the plug.
Contact the Miele Service Department.
Do not reconnect the appliance to the
mains electricity supply until after it has
been repaired.
~
Repairs should only be carried out
by a suitably qualified and trained
person in accordance with local and
national safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be very dangerous and could
damage the appliance. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
unauthorised work. Never open the
housing of the appliance.
~
While the appliance is under
guarantee, repairs should only be
undertaken by a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer.
Otherwise the guarantee is invalidated.

Futher safety notes
~
When using an electric socket near
the appliance, care should be taken
that the cable of the appliance cannot
get trapped by the appliance door. The
insulation on the cable could become
damaged, giving rise to an electric
shock hazard.
~
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Some
foods, e.g. poultry, may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. If in doubt, select a longer
cooking or reheating time.
~
When the door is open be careful
not to hurt yourself on edges and
corners, and especially on the door
catches.
~
If using plastic cooking containers,
make sure that they are heat- and
steam-resistant to 100 °C. Otherwise
they may melt, distort or break.
~
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infestation by
cockroaches or other vermin, pay
particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any
damage caused by cockroaches or
other vermin will not be covered by the
guarantee.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable for damage caused by
non-compliance with these Warning
and Safety instructions.
