Installation requirements

The tumble dryer must only be installed and commissioned by Miele Customer Service
Department or an authorised dealer.

The tumble dryer must be installed in accordance with all relevant regulations and
standards.

The dryer must only be operated in a room that has sufficient ventilation and which is
frost-free.

Electrical connection

The electrical connection must be established by a qualified electrician.

The electrical connection may only be made to an electrical system provided in accord-
ance with all appropriate local and national legislation, regulations and guidelines. Please
also observe the regulations set out by your insurance provider and energy supplier, acci-
dent prevention regulations, as well as recognised codes of practice.

Reliable and safe operation of this tumble dryer is only ensured if it has been connected
to the mains electricity supply.
The required supply voltage, power rating and fuse rating can be found on the data plate
on the tumble dryer. Ensure that the supply voltage matches the voltage quoted on the
data plate before establishing the electrical connection to the tumble dryer.
Connection to a supply voltage other than the one quoted on the data plate can damage
the tumble dryer if the voltage is too high.

If more than one voltage is specified on the data plate, the tumble dryer can be conver-
ted for connection to the relevant input voltage. This conversion must be performed by the
Miele Customer Service Department or by an authorised dealer. During the conversion, the
wiring instructions given on the wiring diagram must be followed.
The tumble dryer can either be hard-wired or connected using a plug-and-socket connec-
tion in accordance with IEC 60309-1. For a hard-wired connection, an all-pole isolation
device must be available at the installation site.
An isolation device is a switch which ensures a contact opening of more than 3 mm.
These include circuit breakers, fuses and contactors (IEC/EN 60947).
If the mains supply cannot be permanently disconnected, the isolation device (including
plug and socket) must be safeguarded against being switched on either unintentionally or
without authorisation.
Tip: We recommend connecting the tumble dryer to the power supply via a plug and
socket so that it is easier to conduct electrical safety checks (e.g. during maintenance or
repair work).

The tumble dryer must not be connected to devices such as timers which would switch
it off automatically.
If local regulations require that a residual current device (RCD) is installed, a type B re-
sidual current device (sensitive to universal current) must be used.
