Operation Manual

Electrical connection
50
All electrical work should be carried out
by a suitably q
ualified and competent
person in strict accordance with current
local and national safety regulations
(e.g. BS 7671 in the UK). Connection
should be made via a switched socket.
This will make it easier for service tech‐
nicians should the appliance need to be
repaired. The electrical socket must be
easily accessible after installation.
 Danger of inj
ury.
Miele cannot be held liable for unau‐
tho
rised installation, maintenance
and repair work as this can be dan‐
gerous to users.
Miele cannot be held liable for dam‐
age or injury caused by incorrect in‐
stallation, maintenance or repair
work, or by an inadequate or faulty
earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
If the plug is removed from the con‐
nection cable or if the cable is sup‐
plied without a plug, the dr
awer must
be connected to the electrical supply
by a suitably qualified electrician.
If the switched socket is not accessi‐
ble aft
er installation, or if the appli‐
ance is to be hard-wired, an addi‐
tional means of disconnection must
be provided for all poles. When
switched off, there must be an all-
pole contact gap of at least 3 mm in
the switch (including switch, fuses
and relays). Connection data is
shown on the data plate. It must
match the mains electrical supply.
After installation ensure that all elec‐
trica
l components are shielded and
cannot be accessed by users.
