cable of type H 05 W-F or H 05 RR-F,
available from the manufacturer or from
the Miele Customer Contact Centre.
~
Repairs may only be carried out by
a suitably qualified and competent

Futher safety notes
~
When using an electric socket near
the appliance, care should be taken
that the cable of the electrical
appliance does not come into contact
with the hot appliance. The insulation
on the cable could become damaged,
giving rise to an electric shock hazard.
~
Always ensure that food is
sufficiently cooked or reheated. Many
factors will affect the overall cooking
time, including the size and quantity of
the food and its temperature.
Some foods may contain
micro-organisms which are only
destroyed by thorough cooking at a
sufficiently high temperature for long
enough. Therefore, when cooking or
reheating food such as poultry, it is
particularly important that the food is
completely cooked through. If in doubt,
select a longer cooking or reheating
time.
~
Do not use plastic or aluminium foil
containers. These melt at high
temperatures, and could catch fire.
~
Spray canisters, aerosols and other
inflammable substances must not be
stored in a drawer under the hob.
Cutlery inserts must be heat-resistant.
