Correct Use - Miele PW 5105 Vario Operating And Installation Instructions

Warning and Safety instructions
~
If this machine is being used in a
commercial environment please ensure
that all relevant health and safety
regulations are obeyed.
~
This machine may only be used in
mobile installations such as ships, if a
risk assessment of the installation has
been carried out by a suitably qualified
engineer.
~
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 guarantee.

Correct use

~
Do not install your machine in rooms
where temperatures below freezing
may occur. Frozen hoses may burst or
split. The reliability of the electronic
control unit may be impaired at
temperatures below freezing point.
~
Before using the machine for the
first time, check that the transit bars at
the rear of the machine have been
removed (see section on "Installation").
During spinning, a transit bar which is
still in place may result in damage to
both the machine and adjacent
furniture or appliances.
8
~
Turn off the stopcock if the machine
is to be left for any length of time (e.g.
holiday), especially if there is no floor
drain (gully) in the immediate vicinity.
~
Flooding danger.
If hooking the drain hose into a wash
basin, check that the water can drain
off quickly enough to prevent the sink
from overflowing. Make sure the drain
hose is secure, so that the force of the
water flowing out of the hose does not
dislodge it.
~
Take care to ensure that foreign
objects (e.g. nails, pins, coins, paper
clips) do not find their way into the
machine with the laundry. Shake out
wash cloths before placing them in the
machine to ensure that any coarse or
harmful residues are removed. These
may damage components of the
machine (e.g. suds container, drum),
which in turn can result in damage to
the laundry.
~
If the correct amount of detergent is
dispensed, the machine should not
need to be descaled. If, however, you
do wish to descale the machine only
use proprietary non-corrosive descaling
agents and strictly observe the
instructions on the packaging. A
special descaling agent is available to
order from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or your Miele dealer.
