Miele W1712 User Manual

							Electrical connection
The washing machine is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug for
connection to a 230V mains supply.
The voltage, rated load and plug rating
are given on the data plate. Please
ensure these match the household
mains supply.
The accesibility of the plug must be
always ensured, in order to separate
the washing machine from the mains.
All electrical work should be carried out
only 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 installation work
has been carried out.
Connection should be made via a
suitable switching socket which is
easily accessible after installation, in
order to separate the washing machine
from the mains.
Do not connect via an extension lead.
Extension leads do not guarantee the
required safety of the appliance (e.g.
danger of overheating).
