IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

							Use
Personnel operating the machine
should be trained regularly.
Children and untrained personnel must
not be allowed access to the machine
or its controls.
BURN AND SCALD HAZARD
This washer reaches very high
temperatures. Take care when
unloading the unit. Let baskets and
inserts cool before touching them. Any
water which may remain in containers
will be very hot and must be emptied
into the wash cabinet.
BURN HAZARD
The heating elements become
extremely hot during use. Do not touch
the heating elements during or directly
after the end of a program.
Take care when handling liquids
such as detergents, wetting agents
or neutralizing agents. These may
contain irritating or corrosive
ingredients. Do not use an organic
solvent in this washer, as an explosion
may occur. Wear protective gloves and
goggles. The manufacturer’s safety
conditions must be observed for all
chemical agents.
Avoid inhaling powdered
detergent. If swallowed, it can
cause burning in the mouth and throat
or inhibit breathing.
Be careful when sorting items with
sharp pointed ends. If possible,
place the pointed end downwards.
The water in the machine must not
be used as drinking water.
Do not sit or lean on the open door.
Injury or machine damage could
result.
Never use a water hose or a high
pressure hose to clean the
machine or the areas surrounding it.
Only use cleaning agents
formulated for special processes
and approved by Miele for use with this
machine. Use of unsuitable cleaning
agents could adversely affect the
components of the machine.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

							Pre-treatments with cleaning or
disinfecting agents can create
suds, as can certain rinsing agents. For
pre-treatment and / or cleaning, only
use low-sudsing detergents and
disinfecting agents which have been
approved by Miele. Suds can have an
adverse effect on the cleaning process.
When a chemical additive is
recommended on technical
application grounds (for example, with
a cleaning agent), this does not imply
that the manufacturer of the machine
takes responsibility for the effect of the
chemical on the material of the items
being cleaned. Please be aware that
changes in formulation, storage
conditions, etc, which may not be
published by the chemical producer,
can have a negative effect on the
cleaning result.
When using cleaning agents and
specialized products, it is essential
that the manufacturer’s instructions are
followed. Only use the product for the
application described by the
manufacturer to avoid any material
damage or the occurrence of strong
chemical reactions.
The machine is designed only for
operation with water and additive
cleaning agents. Organic solvents must
not be used in the machine. An
explosion or machine corrosion could
occur with the use of organic solvents.
In critical applications where very
exact requirements must be met, it
is highly recommended that all the
relevant factors for the process, such
as cleaning agent, quality of water, etc.,
are discussed with Miele’s Application
Specialist.
The mobile units and special
inserts should only be used for
their specific applications.
Empty any containers or utensils
before arranging them in the
machine.
Do not allow any remains of acids
or solvents, particularly
hydrochloric acid or chloride solutions,
to get into the wash cabinet. The
presence of any solvents should be
minimized.
To prevent corrosion damage,
ensure that solutions or steam
containing hydrochloric acid do not
come into contact with the steel outer
casing of the machine.

the Laboratory Glassware washer. The
performance and safety of non-genuine
parts or accessories cannot be
guaranteed, and use of such parts or
items may void the machine warranty. If
you have specific questions about
machine options or accessories, please
call Miele.
Disposal of an appliance
When discarding a lab washer,
disconnect it from the power
supply, remove the door to the wash
cabinet and cut off the power cord.

reasons, ensure the machine is
completely drained of any residual
water and cleaning agent. (Observe
safety regulations and wear safety
goggles and gloves). Make appropriate
