Caring for the environment

Disposing of the packaging
material
The packaging material is used for
handling and protects the appliance
from transport damage. The packaging
material used is selected from materials
which are environmentally friendly for
disposal and can generally be recycled.
Recycling the packaging material re-
duces the use of raw materials. Use
material-specific collection points for
valuable materials and take advantage
of return options. Your Miele dealer will
take the packaging material away.
Disposing of your old appli-
ance
Electrical and electronic appliances
contain many valuable materials. They
also contain certain materials, com-
pounds and components which were
essential for their correct functioning
and safety. These could be hazardous
to human health and to the environment
if disposed of with household waste or
if handled incorrectly. Please do not,
therefore, dispose of your old appliance
with household waste.
Instead, please make use of officially
designated collection and disposal
points to dispose of and recycle elec-
trical and electronic appliances in your
local community, with your dealer or
with Miele, free of charge. By law, you
are solely responsible for deleting any
personal data from the old appliance
prior to disposal. You are legally obliged
to remove any old batteries which are
not securely enclosed by the appliance
and to remove any lamps without des-
troying them, where this is possible.
These must be taken to a suitable col-
lection point where they can be handed
in free of charge. Please ensure that
your old appliance poses no risk to chil-
dren while being stored for disposal.

Warning and Safety instructions
6
This steam ironing system complies with current safety require-
ments. Inappropriate use can, however, lead to personal injury and
damage to property.
To avoid the risk of accidents and damage to the steam ironing
system, please read these instructions carefully before using it for
the first time. They contain important information on its safety, in-
stallation, use and maintenance.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any
future owner.
Correct application
The steam iron is intended for light commercial use and not inten-
ded to be used continually.
The steam ironing system must only be used for ironing textiles
which are suitable for ironing according to the care label.
Only use the steam ironing system for the types of application de-
scribed in the operating instructions.
All other types of use are not permitted. Miele cannot be held liable
for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or operation.
This steam ironing system can be used by children aged eight or
older and by people with reduced physical, sensory or mental cap-
abilities, or lack of experience and knowledge if they are supervised
at all times or if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way
and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect opera-
tion. Children must not play with the steam ironing system. Users
must not allow children to carry out cleaning or maintenance work
without supervision.
The steam ironing system is not intended for outdoor use.
Warning and Safety instructions
7
Children under the age of eight must be kept away from the steam
ironing system unless they are supervised.
Children older than eight may only use the steam ironing system
unsupervised if they have been shown how to use it in a safe way,
and recognise and understand the consequences of incorrect opera-
tion.
Children must not be allowed to clean or maintain the steam iron-
ing system unsupervised.
Please supervise children in the vicinity of the steam ironing sys-
tem, and do not let them play with it.
Make sure that children under eight years of age cannot access
the iron, steam hose or the mains connection cable, either during
use or while the steam ironing system is cooling down.
Miele recommends that only children over the age of 14 are al-
lowed to operate the steam ironing system unsupervised.
Danger of suffocation.
Packaging, (e.g. plastic wrapping), must be kept out of the reach of
babies and children. Whilst playing, they could become entangled in
the packaging or pull it over their head and suffocate.

Technical safety
Before setting up the steam ironing system, inspect it visually for
any external damage. Never use a damaged steam ironing system. A
damaged steam ironing system can be dangerous!
Check the iron of the steam ironing system for damage. Do not
use the iron if it has been dropped, if there is any visible damage or if
it is leaking.
Before connecting the steam ironing system to the power supply,
please ensure that the mains supply voltage (voltage and frequency)
complies with the values given on the data plate.
Connection to a supply voltage other than the one quoted on the
data plate can lead to functional faults and damage to the steam
ironing system. If in doubt, contact a suitably qualified electrician.
Always remove and unwind the power cable of the steam ironing
system completely from its (lower) storage compartment.
If the connection cable is damaged it must be replaced with a
special cable of the same type (available from Miele). For safety reas-
ons this must only be fitted by a Miele authorised service technician
or the Miele service department.
Do not use the steam ironing system if the ironing board cover is
damaged.
A damaged ironing board cover could be dangerous.
Do not use the steam ironing system without an ironing board
cover.
The ironing board cover must be replaced with an
original Mielespare part.
Warning and Safety instructions
9
The electrical safety of this steam ironing system can only be
guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard
safety requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the wiring
system of the building tested by a qualified electrician. Miele cannot
be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing sys-
tem (e.g. electric shock).
Do not connect the steam ironing system to the mains electricity
supply via a multi-socket unit or an extension lead. These do not
guarantee the required safety of the appliance (e.g. danger of over-
heating).
This steam ironing system complies with all relevant safety re-
quirements. Unauthorised repairs could result in unforeseen dangers
for the user, for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability. Re-
pairs should only be undertaken by a Miele authorised service tech-
nician, otherwise any subsequent damage will not be covered by the
guarantee.
Faulty components must only be replaced by genuine Miele ori-
ginal spare parts. Only when these parts are fitted can Miele guaran-
tee the safety standards of the appliance.
Warning and Safety instructions
10
The steam ironing system must be isolated from the electricity
supply during installation, maintenance and repair work. The steam
ironing system is only considered disconnected from the power sup-
ply if:
- the power plug of the steam ironing system is unplugged, or
- the mains circuit breaker is switched off, or
- the mains screw-out fuse is removed (in countries where this is
applicable).
Do not damage, remove or bypass the safety features and control
elements of the steam ironing system.
Only operate the steam ironing system when all removable outer
panels are in place so that it is impossible to touch an electrical
component or moving part.
Do not place open containers of liquid on the steam ironing sys-
tem.
If you see that any liquid has spilled or leaked from containers
onto the steam ironing system, disconnect the plug immediately. Do
not use the steam ironing system if liquid has got into the steam
ironing system. Contact the Miele Customer Service Department.
The steam ironing system must not be used in a non-stationary
location (e.g. on a ship).
