    (c)  not complete the delivery unless a person of the age of majority is present to accept delivery. Should you fail to give at least 4 hours notice that no such person will be available at the appointed time, you will be charged the amount outlined in the order confirmation for the intended delivery.

If no damage is discovered, you will acknowledge that the product was delivered “Free and Clear of Damages” on the delivery receipt.

    If you do not request removal and disposal of packing materials, Miele recommends that the packing be removed by a Miele Certified Installer. If you unpack the product yourself and discover damage, you must report such damage to Miele within 48 hours of the time of delivery to have any remedy. If reported in time, Miele will consider the form of damage and may, in its sole discretion, remove and replace, exchange or discount the damaged product.
