Electrical connection
The dishwasher is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to an earthed socket.
Danger of suffocation due to
gases.
Connecting the dishwasher to a
multi-socket plug adapter or to an
extension lead can overload the
cable. This can cause a fire, releas-
ing toxic gases.
For safety reasons, do not use an ex-
tension lead or multi-socket plug ad-
apter.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the dishwasher 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 plug ad-
apter.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the dishwasher has been in-
stalled.
If the connection cable is damaged, it
must only be replaced with a specific
connection cable of the same type
(available from Miele ). For safety reas-
ons, such replacement may only be
carried out by a qualified technician or
Miele Service.
Do not connect the dishwasher to a
stand-alone inverter such as those used
with an autonomous energy source e.g.
solar power
. When the appliance is
switched on, power surges could result
in a safety switch-off. This could dam-
age the electronic module.
The dishwasher must not be used with
energy-saving devices
either. These
reduce the amount of energy supplied
to the appliance, causing it to overheat.
Before connecting the appliance, check
that the connection data on the data
plate (voltage, frequency and fuse rat-
ing) match the mains electricity supply
and that the installed socket system
matches that of the dishwasher. If in
any doubt, consult a qualified electri-
cian.
For technical data see the data plate
located on the right side of the door.
The electrical installation must be com-
ply with current local and national
safety regulations (e.g. VDE 0100 in
Germany/BS 7671 in the UK).
