
Conversion to a different voltage must only be carried out by a
Miele Service engineer or by an authorized Service Dealer. The wiring
instructions given on the wiring diagram must be followed.
The washing machine can either be hard-wired or connected via a
plug and socket that complies with national codes and regulations.
For a hard-wired connection an all-pole isolation device must be in-
stalled on site.
For hard-wired machines connection should be made via a suitable
switch with all-pole isolation which, when in the off position, ensures
a 1/8" (3 mm) gap between all open contacts. These include circuit
breakers, fuses and relays.
If the power supply cannot be permanently disconnected, the isolator
switch (including plug and socket) must be safeguarded against be-
ing switched on either unintentionally or without authorization.
Tip: We recommend connection to the power supply via a suitable
plug and socket which must be easily accessible for servicing and
maintenance work after the machine has been installed.

If it is necessary to install a residual current device (RCD) in accor-
dance with local regulations, a type B residual current device (sensi-
tive to universal current) must be used.
An existing type A residual current device (RCD) must be exchanged
for a type B RCD.
Equipotential bonding must have an earth current rating > 10 mA
and be in accordance with all national and local regulations.
Accessories for equipotential bonding are not supplied and need to
be ordered separately.

Water connection

The washing machine complies with current local and national
safety regulations protecting the drinking water supply and can
therefore be connected to the drinking water supply without a non-
return valve.
The flow pressure must amount to a minimum of 100 kPa (14.5 psi)
and must not exceed an overpressure of 1,000 kPa (145 psi). If the
flow pressure is higher than 1,000 kPa (145 psi), a pressure reducing
valve must be used.
The machine must be connected to the water connection using the
water inlet hoses provided.
 The connection points are subject to water connection pres-
sure.
Turn on the water supplies slowly and check for leaks. Correct the
position of the seal and screw thread if appropriate.
