Miele KFN 12823 SD ed, Operating And Installation Instructions

Page: 47 / 64

The appliance must be connected to an
electrical outlet that is properly
grounded. The electrical installation
must comply with the applicable
electrical code.
The outlet must be easily accessible
and not concealed behind the
appliance so that the appliance can
quickly be disconnected from the
electricity supply in an emergency.
The plug and power cable must not
come into contact with the back of the
appliance, as they could be damaged
by vibrations from the appliance. This
may result in a short circuit.
In addition, no other appliances should
be plugged into a socket located
directly behind this appliance.
Do not use an extension cord to
connect the appliance to the power
supply. Extension cords do not
guarantee the required safety of the
appliance (e.g. they pose a danger of
overheating).
Do not connect the appliance to
stand-alone inverters, such as those
used with an autonomous energy
source,
e.g. solar power systems .
Otherwise, when the appliance is
switched on, peak loads in the system
can cause the safety shutdown
mechanism to be triggered. This can
damage electronic units.
In addition, the appliance must not be
used with
energy-saving devices ,
which reduce the amount of energy
supplied to the appliance and cause it
to overheat.
If the power cable needs to be
replaced, this work must only be
performed by a qualified electrician.
