Before setting up the ironer, check it
for any externally visible damage.

If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by a Miele approved
service technician to avoid a hazard.

that the connection data on the data

connected load) match the mains
electricity supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
~
The electrical safety of this
appliance can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the appliance and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national safety regulations.
Where there is any doubt, the on-site

damage or injury caused by an
inadequate earthing system (e.g.
