Caring for the environment

Disposal of packing material

The cardboard box and packing materials protect the appliance during shipping. They have been designed to be biodegradable and recyclable. Please recycle.

Ensure that any plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of children. Danger of suffocation!

The original packaging can be used to transport the coffee system.

Disposal of an old appliance

Old appliances may contain materials that can be recycled. Please contact your local recycling authority about the possibility of recycling these materials.

Ensure that the appliance presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal. Before discarding an old appliance, unplug it from the outlet, cut off its power cord and remove any doors to prevent hazards.

Page 71

All electrical work should be performed by a qualified electrician in strict accordance with national and local safety regulations. Installation, repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous.

Verify that the voltage, load and circuit rating information found on the data plate match the household electrical supply. This data must match to prevent damage to the coffee system. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician.

Electrical connection

A longer cord should be arranged so

–

that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Do not connect the appliance to a power inverter or directly to power produced outside of the normal electrical grid (i.e. direct solar or wind power source).

Direct connection to such power sources can cause power surges and tripped breakers when the appliance is turned on, and could damage the appliance.

The data plate can be found behind the drip tray inside the coffee system.

The plug will fit in the outlet only one way. If it does not fit, DO NOT use force and DO NOT modify the plug in any way. Contact a qualified electrician.

The socket should be located next to the machine and be easily accessible.

If the appliance is connected to the electrical supply with an extension cord please note:

–

A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

–

Always use care and exercise caution with using an extension cord.

–

The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

Do not connect the appliance to energy saving plugs or outlets. The reduction of power to the appliance caused by these devices will cause the appliance to run hot and may damage it and/or shorten its usable life.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. Contact Miele Technical Service.

If there is any question concerning the electrical connection of this appliance to your power supply, please consult a licensed electrician or contact Miele’s Technical Service Department. See back page for contact information.

WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED

–

The extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
