IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
10
 To avoid the risk of damage to the appliance, make sure that the
connection data (fuse rating, frequency and voltage) on the data
plate corresponds to the household supply.
Check that this is the case before connecting the appliance. Consult
a qualified electrician if in any doubt.
 The electrical safety of the appliance can only be guaranteed
when correctly grounded. It is essential that this standard safety re-
quirement is met. If in any doubt please have the electrical installa-
tion tested by a qualified electrician.
 Reliable and safe operation of this appliance can only be assured
if it has been connected to the electricity supply.
 The outlet must not be concealed behind the appliance and must
be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly discon-
nected from the electrical supply in case of an emergency.
 If the power cord supplied is damaged, it must only be replaced
by an original part to prevent a hazard for the user. Miele can only
guarantee the safety of the appliance when original Miele parts are
used.
 The electrical outlet must be properly grounded.
 Do not connect the appliance to the electrical supply with a power
bar or extension cord. These are a fire hazard and do not guarantee
the required safety of the appliance.
 If moisture gets into electrical components or into the power cord,
it could cause a short circuit. Therefore, do not operate the machine
in areas where there may be moisture or splashing water (e.g.,
garages, laundry rooms).
 This appliance must not be installed and operated in mobile in-
stallations (e.g. on a ship).
 Do not use a damaged appliance. It could be dangerous. Check
the appliance for visible signs of damage.
