Technical and electrical safety
The electrical safety of this appliance can
only be guaranteed when continuity is
complete between the appliance and an effec-
tive earthing system which complies with local
and national regulations.
It is most important that this basic safety re-
quirement is regularly tested by a qualified
electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for the consequences of an inade-
quate earthing system.
Do not damage, remove or bypass the
safety features and controls on the ma-

Where there is any damage to the ma-
chine or to the cable insulation the ma-
chine must not be used until it has been
repaired.
Any removable outer panels must be in
place, and all moving or electrical parts
shielded before the machine is operated.
The machine is only completely isolated
from the electricity supply either when
switched off at the wall isolator, or the mains
fuse is withdrawn from the socket.
Repairs to machines operating with elec-
tricity or steam should only be undertaken
by a suitably qualified service engineer to en-
sure safety. Unauthorised repairs could be
dangerous.
Faulty components should only be ex-
changed for Miele original spare parts.
Only when these parts are fitted can the
safety standards of the machine be guaran-
teed.
The very best materials are used in the
manufacture of this machine, and every
care is taken in its manufacture. However,
with time, deterioration of parts can occur, es-
pecially with rubber components such as
hoses. This should be borne in mind if opera-
ting the machine without supervision. Check
the inlet hoses regularly for signs of deteriora-
tion and replace in good time, to avoid leaks
and subsequent damage.
Local regulations regarding regular inspec-
tion and maintenance of this machine
must be observed. [[In Germany this machine
is subject to laundry regulations UVV
(VBG7y) Sections 36 and 37, which stipulate
that washer extractors with a kinetic energy of
more than 1500 Nm must be checked once a
year by a competent person for their oper-
ational safety and the results entered in a test
log (book) supplied with the machine for the
German market, and which must be kept at
the place of operation and be available for in-
spection.]]
