Miele 04 950 470 User Manual

Electrical connection

All electrical work should be carried out
only by a suitably competent person, in
strict accordance with national and
local safety regulations.

Theappliance is supplied with a mains
cable with moulded plug for connection
to a 230-240V mains supply. The voltage,
rated load and fuse rating are given on
the data plate. Please ensure these
match the household mains supply. 

Connection should be made via a
fused plug and suitable switched
socket which is easily accessible after
installation. For extra safety it is advis-
able to install a residual current device
(RCD), with a trip current of 30 mA. Do
not connect via an extension lead.

The wires in the mains lead are col-
oured in accordance with the following
code:

Green/yellow

= earth

Blue  = neutral
Brown = 

live

Where it is necessary to change plugs,
if the colours of the wires in the mains
lead of this appliance do not corre-
spond with the coloured markings ident-
ifying the terminals of your plug, pro-
ceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured green and
yellow must be connected to the termi-
nal in the plug which is marked with the
letter E or by the earth symbol z or col-
oured green, or green and yellow.

The wire which is coloured blue must
be connected to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter N
or coloured black.

The wire which is coloured brown must
be connected to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter L
or coloured red.

Ensure power is not restored to the ap-
pliance while installation work is being
carried out.

If this machine is fitted with a non-re-
wireable plug, the following information
applies:

If the socket outlets are not suitable for
the plug supplied with the product, it
must be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted.
The plug cut from the flexible cord should
be disposed of and on no account be in-
serted into any socket elsewhere in the
house (electric shock hazard).
The fuse cover must be refitted when
changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover is
lost, the plug must not be used until a suit-
able replacement is obtained. The colour
of the correct replacement cover is that of
the coloured insert in the base of the plug,
or the colour that is embossed in words on
the base of the plug (as applicable to the
design of plug fitted).
Replacement fuses should be ASTA ap-
proved to BS 1362 and have the cor-
rect rating. Replacement fuse covers
may be purchased from your local elec-
trical supplier or Service agent.
