Electrical Connection - Miele G 6990 Operating Instructions Manual

Electrical connection

This dishwasher is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to an AC single phase
supply, (230 - 240 V 50 Hz for NZ and
Australia) via a suitable switched sock‐
et.

The electrical socket must be
easily accessible after the dishwash‐
er has been installed. Do not con‐
nect the dishwasher to the mains
electricity supply by an extension
lead. Extension leads do not guaran‐
tee the required safety of the appli‐
ance (e.g. danger of overheating).
Do not connect the appliance solely 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 devices either.
These reduce the amount of energy
supplied to the machine, causing it to
overheat.

Before connecting the appliance,
check that the connection data on
the data plate (voltage, frequency,
rated load and fuse rating) matches
the mains electricity supply. If in any
doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
The data plate is located on the right-
hand side of the door.

All electrical work must be car‐
ried out by a suitably qualified and
competent person in strict accord‐
ance with current local and national
safety regulations.
For extra safety, it is advisable to in‐
stall a residual current device (RCD),
with a trip current of 30 mA.
