Electrical connection
The cooker hood is supplied with a
mains cable with moulded plug ready
for connection to a suitable earthed
socket.
If the socket is not easily accessible or
a fixed connection is envisaged, ensure
that a suitable means of disconnection
is provided on the installation side for
each pole.
Risk of fire from overheating.
Connecting the cooker hood to
multi-socket adapters or extension
cables can overload the cables.
For safety reasons, do not use an
extension cable or multi-socket
adapter.
The electrical system must comply with
local and national safety regulations
(BS 7671 in the UK).
For safety reasons, we recommend
using a type
residual current device
(RCD) in the relevant electrical
installation for connecting the cooker
hood.
If the mains connection cable is
damaged, it must only be replaced with
a specific mains connection cable of
the same type (available from the Miele
Customer Service Department). For
safety reasons, such replacement may
only be carried out by a qualified
specialist or the Miele Customer
Service Department.
These operating instructions and the
data plate indicate the nominal power
consumption and the appropriate fuse
rating. Compare this information with
the data of the on-site electrical
connection.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
Temporary or permanent operation on
an autonomous power supply system or
a power supply system that is not
synchronised with the mains power
supply (e.g. island networks, back-up
systems) is possible. A prerequisite for
operation is that the power supply
system complies with the specifications
of EN 50160 or an equivalent standard.
The function and operation of the
protective measures provided in the
domestic electrical installation and in
this Miele product must also be
maintained in isolated operation or in
operation that is not synchronised with
the mains power supply, or these
measures must be replaced by
equivalent measures in the installation.
As described, for example, in the
current version of VDE-AR-E 2510-2.
