IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Technical safety Installation, repair, and maintenance work should only be performed by a Miele-authorized service technician. Work by unqualified persons could be dangerous and may void the warranty. Before installation, check the dishwasher for visible signs of damage. Under no circumstances should you use a damaged dishwasher. A damaged dishwasher could be dangerous. The electrical safety of this appliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between it and an effective grounding system. It is most important that this basic safety requirement is present and regularly tested and, where there is any doubt, the electrical system in the house should be checked by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate grounding system (e.g. electric shock). Reliable and safe operation of this dishwasher can only be assured if it has been connected to the electrical supply. If the dishwasher is plugged into the electricity supply using a 3pin plug with a grounding contact (it must not be hard-wired), the electrical socket must be easily accessible after the dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from the electrical supply at any time. There must be no electrical sockets behind the dishwasher. There is a danger of overheating and fire risk if the dishwasher is pushed up against a plug. The dishwasher must not be installed under a cooktop. The high radiant temperatures which are sometimes generated by a cooktop could damage the dishwasher. For the same reason, it should not be installed next to open fires or other appliances which give off heat, such as heaters, etc. 8
