Electrical connection
Installation, repairs and other
work by unqualified persons could
be dangerous.
Check that the voltage, frequency
and fuse rating shown on the data

The power outlet must be accessible

tension cord to connect the dish-
washer to the mains. Danger of over-

A damaged power cord must only be
replaced with a genuine Miele cord
by a Miele service technician.
Grounding instructions
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
GROUNDED.
In the event of a malfunction or break-
down, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for the electrical cur-
rent. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropri-
ate outlet that is installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Improper connection of the
equipment grounding conductor can
result in electric shock.
Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance; if it will not fit the out-
let, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
If there is any question concerning
the proper electrical connection or
grounding of this appliance to the
powersupply, please consult a li-
censed electrician or call Miele’s
