Electrical Connection - Miele WCR 890 WPS Operating Instructions Manual

Electrical connection

The washing machine is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to a switched socket.

Risk of fire from overheating!
Connecting the washing machine to
a multi-socket plug adapter or to an
extension lead can overload the
cable.
Do not use an extension lead or
multi-socket plug adapter.
The socket must be easily accessible
after the machine has been installed.
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.
The data plate indicates the nominal
power consumption and the
appropriate fuse rating. Compare the
specifications on the data plate with
those of the mains electricity supply
and make sure that they match.
