Electrical connection
The refrigeration appliance must only be
connected to an earthed socket using
the connection cable supplied. A longer
connection cable is available to order
from the Miele Customer Service De-
partment.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the refrigeration appliance has
been installed. If the socket is not easily
accessible, ensure that a suitable
means of disconnection is provided on
the installation side for each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the refrigeration appli-
ance to a multi-socket plug adapter
or to an extension lead can overload
the cable.
For safety reasons, do not use an ex-
tension lead or multi-socket adapter.
The electrical system must comply with
local and national safety regulations
(BS7671 in the UK).
For safety reasons, we recommend us-
ing a type residual current device
(RCD) in the assigned electrical installa-
tion for connecting the refrigeration ap-
pliance.
If the mains connection cable is dam-
aged, it must only be replaced with a
specific mains connection cable of the
same type (available from the Miele
Customer Service Department). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a qualified spe-
cialist or the Miele Customer Service
Department.
These operating instructions and the
data plate indicate the nominal power
consumption and the appropriate fuse
rating. Compare this information with
the data of the on-site electrical con-
nection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified elec-
trician.
Do not connect the refrigeration appli-
ance to a stand-alone inverter such as
those used with an autonomous energy
source, e.g. solar power. When the refri-
geration appliance is switched on,
power surges could result in an auto
switch-off. This could damage the elec-
tronic module.
Connecting the refrigeration appli-
ance
Insert the plug connector into the
socket at the back of the refrigeration
appliance.
Make sure that the plug connector has
clicked into position correctly.
Insert the plug of the refrigeration ap-
pliance into the socket.
The refrigeration appliance is now con-
nected to the electricity supply.
