Electrical Connection - Miele CM5300 Operating Instructions Manual

Electrical connection

Before connecting the appliance, make
sure that the connection data on the
data plate (voltage and frequency)
match the mains electricity supply.
This data must correspond in order to
avoid the risk of damage to the
machine. Consult a qualified electrician
if in any doubt.
The connection data is given on the
data plate. The data plate can be seen
on the left-hand side when the drip tray
is pulled out.
The machine is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug for connection
to a 50 Hz 220-240 V supply.
The coffee machine must be connected
to the mains supply via a suitable
switched socket with earthing contact.
Connection must comply with national
and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in
the UK).
The fuse rating must be at least 10 A.
The socket should be next to the
appliance and easily accessible.
Do not connect the machine to the
mains electricity supply by a multi-
socket adapter or an extension lead.
These do not guarantee the safety of
the appliance (fire risk).
Do not connect the machine to an
inverter such as those used with an
autonomous energy source, e.g. solar
power. When switched on, peak loads
in the system can cause the safety
switch-off mechanism to be triggered.
This can damage the electronic unit.

The machine must not be used with so-
called energy saving plugs. These
reduce the amount of energy supplied
to the machine, causing it to overheat.
If the connection cable is faulty, it may
only be replaced by a qualified
electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
