Electrical connection
We recommend that you connect the steam oven to the electricity supply using a suitable switched electrical socket. This simplifies servicing. The socket must be easily accessible after the steam oven has been installed.
The danger of injury! Miele cannot be held liable for unauthorized installation, maintenance, and repair work as this can be dangerous to users.
Miele cannot be held liable for damage or injury (e.g. electric shock) caused by the lack of or inadequacy of an on-site earthing system.
If the plug is removed from the connection cable or if the cable is supplied without a plug, the steam oven must be connected to the electrical supply by a suitably qualified and competent electrician.
If the socket is no longer accessible, or if a hard-wired connection is planned, an additional means of disconnection must be provided for all poles. Suitable means of disconnection include switches with an all-pole contact gap of at least 3 mm. These include miniature circuit breakers, fuses, and relays. The connection data is given on the data
plate. Please ensure this information matches the household mains electricity supply.
After installation, ensure that all electrical components are shielded and cannot be accessed by users.
