IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use
To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in, on or near the dishwasher. Only use the dishwasher if all panels are properly in place. Do not tamper with the controls. Do not damage, sit or stand on the door or baskets of the dishwasher. Close the door when not in use. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, turn on all hot water faucets and let water flow from each for several minutes before using the dishwasher. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time. Be sure that all items placed in the dishwasher are "dishwasher safe". For items not labeled, check the manufacturer�s recommendations. When loading tableware, place sharp items away from the door to prevent damage to the seal. Load sharp items pointing downwards to prevent injuries. Only use detergents and rinse aids recommended for residential dishwashers. Keep all detergents and rinse aids out of the reach of children. Do not inhale or swallow detergents. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant and corrosive ingredients. They can cause burning in the mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing. Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled. Do not drink water from the dishwasher! Harmful residues could be present. Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with detergent. It will damage the rinse aid compartment. If the power cord is damaged it must only be replaced by a Miele Service technician with a genuine Miele power cord.
Disposal of an appliance
If the appliance is removed from its installation site and will not be used, remove the doorlock to the wash cabinet to prevent children from locking themselves in the machine.
