Page 14 The machine must only be operated with properly adjusted door springs. If the door cannot be adjusted properly, contact Miele. The minimum/maximum weight of the front panel is quoted in the technical data for your dishwasher on the Miele website.
Page 15 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  Do not sit, stand, or lean on the opened door. The dishwasher can tip over. This could injure you or damage the dishwasher.  Dishes may be very hot at the end of the program. Allow the dishes to cool until they are comfortable enough to handle before un- loading them.
Page 16 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Accessories and parts  Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used, war- ranty, performance, and, if applicable, product liability claims will be invalidated. Transport  Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before using the dishwasher, check it for any visible transport damage.
