Warning and Safety instructions
Safety with children
~
Children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance. Keep children away from the
appliance at all times to avoid the risk
of injury.
~
Older children may only use the
appliance when its operation has been
clearly explained to them and they are
able to use it safely, recognising the
dangers of misuse.
~
Great care should be taken to
ensure that children do not touch the
appliance when it is being used.
External parts of the oven such as the
door glass, control panel and the vent
become quite hot. Children's skin is far
more sensitive to high temperatures
than that of adults. Danger of burning!

Technical safety
~
Installation, maintenance and
repairs may only be carried out by a
suitably qualified and competent
person authorised by Miele in strict
accordance with current national and
local safety regulations. Repairs and
other work by unqualified persons
could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for unauthorised
work.
~
Before installation, check the
appliance for visible signs of damage.
Do not install and use a damaged
appliance. Danger of injury!
~
Do not use the microwave function
of the appliance if
– the door is warped,
– the door hinges are loose,
– holes or cracks are visible in the
housing, the door, the door seal or
the oven interior walls.
Operating the appliance with this type
of damage will result in microwave
leakage and present a hazard to the
user.
~
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between it
and an effective earthing system which
complies with local and national safety
regulations. It is most important that this
basic safety requirement is present and
tested regularly 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).
