Warning and safety instructions
The Miele Waterproof System of-
fers protection from water damage,
provided the following conditions are
met:
– the dishwasher is correctly installed
and plumbed in
– the dishwasher is properly main-
tained and parts are replaced where
it can be seen that this is necessary
– the stopcock has been turned off
when the machine is not used for a
longer period of time (e.g. during
holidays).
In countries where there are areas
which may be subject to infesta-
tion by cockroaches or other vermin,
pay particular attention to keeping the
appliance and its surroundings in a
clean condition at all times. Any dam-
age which may be caused by cock-
roaches or other vermin will not be
covered by the appliance guarantee.
Dishwashers with visible heating ele-
ments
For appliances with the heating ele-
ment in the wash cabinet do not
touch the element during or directly
after the end of a programme, you
could burn yourself.
Some plastic items could melt or
catch fire if they were to come into
contact with the heating element.
Therefore always place plastic items or
any other items which may not be com-
pletely heat resistant in the upper bas-
ket and ensure they cannot drop
through. Any items which are too small
to be lodged securely in the upper bas-
ket should not be cleaned in the dish-
washer.

Disposal of your old machine
When disposing of an old dish-
washer first make it unusable. Dis-
connect, cut off the cable and the plug
from the cable.
Make the door lock inoperative, so that
children cannot accidentally shut them-
selves in. Make appropriate arrange-
ments for the safe disposal of the ap-
pliance.
The manufacturer can not be held
responsible for any damage caused
by non-observance of the Warning
and Safety instructions.
