Electrical connection
92
This dishwasher is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to an AC single phase
supply, (230 - 240 V 50 Hz for NZ and
Australia) via a suitable switched
socket.

The electrical socket must be
easily accessible after the
dishwasher has been installed. Do
not connect the dishwasher to the
mains electricity supply by an
extension lead. Extension leads do
not guarantee the required safety of
the appliance (e.g. danger of
overheating).
Do not connect the appliance solely to
an inverter such as those used with an
autonomous energy source e.g.
solar
power . When switched on, peak loads
in the system can cause the safety
switch-off mechanism to be triggered.
This can damage the electronic unit.
The machine must not be used with so-
called
energy-saving devices either.
These reduce the amount of energy
supplied to the machine, causing it to
overheat.

Before connecting the appliance,
check that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage, frequency,
rated load and fuse rating) matches
the mains electricity supply. If in any
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The data plate is located on the right-
hand side of the door.

All electrical work must be
carried out by a suitably qualified
and competent person in strict
accordance with current local and
national safety regulations.
For extra safety, it is advisable to
install a residual current device
(RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA.
