
The washing machine may only be connected to the water supply
using the set of hoses supplied with the machine. Old sets of hoses
must not be re-used. Check the sets of hoses regularly for signs of
wear. Change the sets of hoses in good time to avoid the risk of leaks
and subsequent water damage.

The cause of any leaks must be dealt with before the washing ma-
chine is restarted. Disconnect the washing machine immediately if
any water leaks out.

Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele spare
parts. Miele can only guarantee the safety standards of the machine
when Miele spare parts are used.

All relevant national provisions and regulations (DGUV in Germany)
relating to accident insurance are applicable to this machine. It is re-
commended to carry out testing in accordance with the regulatory
framework described in DGUV 100-500/Chapter 2.6/Section 4. The
test book required for the documentation is available from the Miele
Customer Service Department.

Please observe the instructions in "Installation and connection"
and "Technical data".

The plug for the washing machine must always be kept accessible
so that the machine can be easily disconnected from the power sup-
ply.

For hard-wired machines, an all-pole means of deactivation must
be provided on site.

If the machine is to be hard-wired, there must be a means of dis-
connecting all poles from the power supply. The mains isolator must
be close to the washing machine and be clearly identifiable, un-
hindered and easily accessible at all times.
