Technical safety
Unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repairs can cause
considerable danger for the user. Installation, maintenance, and
repairs must only be carried out by a qualified technician.
Damage to the dishwasher can compromise your safety. Before
using the dishwasher and in particular following transport, check it
for any visible damage. Never use a damaged dishwasher.
The electrical safety of the dishwasher can only be guaranteed
when correctly grounded. It is most important that this basic safety
requirement is fulfilled. If in doubt, the electrical installation should
be checked by a qualified electrician.
Miele cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate
or lack of grounding system (e.g., electric shock).
Temporary or permanent operation on an autonomous power
supply system or a power supply system that is not synchronized
with the grid power supply (e.g., island networks, back-up systems)
is possible. A prerequisite for operation is that the power supply
system complies with the specifications of EN 50160 or an
equivalent local standard.
The function and operation of the protective measures provided in
the domestic electrical installation and in this Miele product must
also be maintained in isolated operation or in operation that is not
synchronized with the grid power supply, or these measures must be
replaced by equivalent measures in the installation. As described, for
example, in the current version of VDE-AR-E 2510-2 or an equivalent
local standard.
If the dishwasher is plugged into the domestic electricity supply
using a 3-pin plug with a grounding contact (it must not be hard-
wired), the electrical socket must be easily accessible after the
dishwasher is installed so that it can be disconnected from the
domestic electricity supply at any time.
