Correct usage
This washer-dryer must only be

– to wash textiles which are declared
by the manufacturer on the care
label to be machine washable, as
well as hand washable woollens.
– to dry textiles which have been
washed in a water solution, marked on
the manufacturer's wash care label as
being suitable for tumble drying.
Any other applications may be dange-
rous. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage caused by
improper or incorrect use of the appliance.
Do not let small children play with
the machine and its controls or
operate it. Supervise its use by the
elderly or infirm.
Technical safety
Before setting up the machine,
check it for any externally visible
damage. Do not install or use a
damaged machine.
Before connecting the machine,
ensure that the connection data on
the data plate (fusing, voltage and
frequency) matches the mains
electricity supply. If in any doubt,
consult a qualified electrician.
The electrical safety of this
machine can only be guaranteed
when continuity is complete between
the machine and an effective earthing
system which complies with local and
national safety regulations.
It is most important that this basic
safety requirement is regularly tested
by a qualified electrician.
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for the consequences of an
inadequate earthing system.
Do not connect the appliance to
the mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).
The machine is built in accordance
with current safety requirements.
Unauthorised repairs could result in
unforeseen dangers for the user, for
which the manufacturer cannot accept
responsibility. Repairs should only be
undertaken by a Miele approved
technician.
The machine is only completely
isolated from the electricity supply
when:
– it is switched off at the wall socket
and the plug is withdrawn, or
– it is switched off at the mains, or
– the mains fuse is withdrawn, or
– the screw-out fuse is removed in
countries where this is applicable.
