Installation and connection
103
Electrical connection
The washer-dryer is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to a 230V electricity
supply. The voltage, rated load and plug
rating are given on the data plate.
Please ensure these match the
household mains supply.
After the washer-dryer has been
installed, the plug must be easily
accessible.
Do not connect the washer-dryer to
an extension lead or multi-socket
adapter as they do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
All electrical work must be carried out
by a suitably qualified and competent
person, in strict accordance with
national and local safety regulations.
For extra safety, it is advisable to install
a residual current device (RCD) with a
trip current of 30 mA. Ensure power is
not supplied to the appliance until after
the installation has been completed.
Connection should be made via a
suitable switched socket.
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
reasons, such replacement may only be
carried out by a qualified technician or
Miele.
