- Page 7 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Safety with children Children must be kept away from the dishwasher unless they are constantly supervised. Children may only use the dishwasher without supervision if they have been shown how to use it in a safe manner. Children must be able to understand and recognize the possible dangers caused by incorrect operation.
- Page 8 Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and re- pairs should only be carried out by a Miele authorized technician. Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before using the dishwasher and in particular following transport, check it for any visible damage.
- Page 9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The dishwasher must not be installed underneath a cooktop. The high temperatures radiated by cooktops could damage the dish- washer below. For the same reason, the dishwasher must not be in- stalled next to open fires or other appliances that give off heat, such as heaters etc., not normally found in a kitchen.
- Page 10 The manufacturer’s warranty may be invalidated if the appliance is not repaired to Miele authorized service standards. We recommend replacing defective components with original parts. If original Miele parts are installed correctly, Miele ensures full compliance with safety requirements and the warranty remains valid.
- Page 11 If the power cord is damaged, it must only be replaced with a spe- cific cord of the same type (available from Miele Customer Service). For safety reasons, this must only be done by Miele Customer Ser- vice or a service technician authorized by Miele.
- Page 12 The appliance must only be operated with properly adjusted door springs. If the door cannot be adjusted properly, contact the Miele Customer Service. The maximum weight of the front panel that can be aligned with the factory-installed door springs is 15–20 lb (7–9 kg) depending on model.
- Page 13 Accessories and parts Only use original Miele accessories. If other parts are used, war- ranty, performance, and, if applicable, product liability claims will be invalidated.
- Page 14 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Miele will guarantee to supply functional spare parts for a mini- mum of 10 years and up to 15 years following the discontinuation of your dishwasher. Transport Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before using the dishwasher, check it for any visible transport damage.
