Caring for the environment

Disposal of the packing material
The transport and protective packaging has been selected from materials which are
environmentally friendly for disposal, and can normally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the use of raw materials in the manufacturing process
and also reduces the amount of waste in landfill sites. Ensure that any plastic wrappings,
bags etc. are disposed of safely and kept out of the reach of babies and young children.
Danger of suffocation.
Disposing of your old appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances often contain valuable materials. They also contain
specific materials, compounds and components, which were essential for their correct
function and safety. These could be hazardous to human health and to the environment if
disposed of with your domestic waste or if handled incorrectly. Please do not, therefore,
dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local community waste collection / recycling centre for
electrical and electronic appliances. You are also responsible for deleting any personal
data that may be stored on the appliance prior to disposal. Please ensure that your old
appliance poses no risk to children while being stored prior to disposal.
Warning and Safety instructions
5
Please read these instructions carefully before using the flatwork ironer for the first time.
They contain important information on the safety, use and maintenance of the flatwork
ironer.
This prevents both personal injury and damage to the appliance.
If other persons are being shown how to operate the flatwork ironer, they must be given
these important safety instructions and/or be made aware of them.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future owner.
Correct application
This flatwork ironer must be used as described in these instructions and must be checked
on a regular basis to make sure it is functioning correctly. Maintenance must be carried out
when necessary.
This flatwork ironer must only be used for ironing articles which were washed in water
and which have a care label stating that they are suitable for machine ironing.
This flatwork ironer is intended for use in commercial settings. This appliance is not
designed for domestic use. If the flatwork ironer is operated in a publically accessible
place, it is the operator's responsibility to ensure suitable measures are in place to protect
users from any source of risk or danger.
This flatwork ironer is not suitable for outdoor use.
Technical and electrical safety
This flatwork ironer should not be operated in the same room as dry-cleaning equipment
using perchloroethylene or solvents containing CFCs.
This flatwork ironer should only be operated in a suitably dry room.
Only operate this flatwork ironer when all removable outer panels are in place so that it
is impossible to touch an electrical component or moving part.
Do not damage, remove or bypass the safety components or control elements of this
flatwork ironer.
Do not make any alterations to the flatwork ironer unless authorised to do so by Miele.
If the controls or the electrical cabling insulation have been damaged, this flatwork
ironer must not be used until it has been repaired.
Repairs and other work by unqualified persons could be dangerous. The manufacturer
cannot be held liable for unauthorised work. Repairs may only be carried out by a Miele
authorised service technician.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele Original spare parts. The
manufacturer can only guarantee that the machine fully complies with safety requirements
when Miele replacement parts are used.
The electrical safety of this flatwork ironer can only be guaranteed if connected to a
correctly installed earthing system on site. It is most important that this standard safety
requirement is present and tested regularly and, where there is any doubt, the on-site
electrical system should be tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot be held liable for
damage or injury caused by the lack of or inadequacy of an effective earthing system.
Warning and Safety instructions
6
This flatwork ironer is only completely isolated from the electricity supply when switched
off at the mains circuit breaker or it is switched off at the wall socket and the plug is
withdrawn from the socket (if applicable).
Operation
This flatwork ironer must not be operated unsupervised.
This flatwork ironer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they
are supervised whilst using it or have been shown how to use it in a safe way and
understand and recognise the consequences of incorrect operation.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the flatwork ironer and do not let them play
with it.
In the heated state and with the heater plate contacting the roller, there is a serious risk
of burning if the edge of the heater plate on the laundry output side is touched.
Do not set the ironing temperature higher than the temperature given on the care label of
the item you intend to iron. The laundry could ignite if the ironing temperature is set too
high.
When ironing double layered items, do not reach in between the layers to straighten out
the fabric. This is extremely dangerous as you may not be able to extract your hands in
time. The same applies when ironing garments with pockets.
The flexible laundry feed mechanism (depending on model) must only be operated from
the front.
Ensure the room in which the flatwork ironer is being used is sufficiently lit.
Keep the working area around the flatwork ironer free from clutter.
Always keep a fire extinguisher accessible in the rare event of textiles igniting. Items
which are unsuitable for ironing or which have not been washed in water can catch fire.
Using accessories
Accessory parts may only be fitted when expressly approved by Miele. If other parts are
used, warranty, performance and product liability claims will be invalidated.
Coin operated ironers must be anchored to the floor by the supporting feet to prevent
the risk of the machine tipping.
Notes on the use of this flatwork ironer
Only responsible people over the age of 16 years who have been fully trained in the use
of the flatwork ironer should use the infeed table.
When working with the flatwork ironer, always wear close fitting clothes and keep long
hair tied back. Wide sleeves, apron straps, scarves and ties etc. could be taken in by the
roller.
Remove rings and bracelets before ironing.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
Smooth out folds as far away from the infeed on the infeed table as possible. Feed
pillow cases and duvet covers into the ironer with the open end first. Do not take hold of
the corners from the inside. Do not take hold of straps or ties etc. from the inside of
garments.
Check daily that safety devices are correctly set. This flatwork ironer must only be used
if all safety features are functioning correctly. This way you will avoid the danger of burns,
squashed fingers and even loss of hands.
Before switching to reverse, make sure that nobody is endangered.
If other persons are being shown how to operate the flatwork ironer, they must be given
or made aware of these important safety instructions.
Pass these instructions on to any future users/owners of the flatwork ironer.
