Miele M 6012 SC Operating Instructions Manual page 11


The electrical safety of this microwave oven can only be
guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective
earthing system. It is essential that this standard safety requirement
is met to avoid the risk of damage or electric shock due to a missing
or disconnected protective conductor. If in any doubt, please have
the electrical installation tested by a qualified electrician.

Do not situate the appliance too close to an adjacent furniture
unit. To ensure adequate ventilation, a minimum gap of 5 cm is
required between the appliance and any neighbouring furniture or
walls. There must be a minimum gap of 19.5 cm between the top of
the appliance and anything above it.

Unauthorised or incorrect repairs could cause personal injury or
damage to the appliance. Repairs should only be carried out by a
Miele authorised technician.
It is hazardous for anyone other than a competent person to carry
out any service or repair operation that involves the removal of a
cover which gives protection against exposure to microwave energy.

Any repairs not performed by a Miele authorised technician will
void the warranty.

During repairs or cleaning and maintenance, the microwave oven
must be disconnected from the mains power supply. It is only
completely isolated from the electricity supply when:
– the plug has been disconnected from the back of the appliance or
the appliance has been switched off at the wall socket and the plug
withdrawn.
Do not pull the mains connection cable but the mains plug to
disconnect your appliance from the mains electricity supply.
– the mains circuit breaker is switched off.
- the screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is
applicable).
