What electrical safety precautions should I take when installing the Miele W1?

Connect the washing machine to a grounded socket with a suitable fuse rating, ensuring the socket is easily accessible after installation. Do not use extension leads or multi-socket adapters to prevent overloading. For added safety, consider installing a residual current device (RCD) with a trip current of 30 mA. If the mains connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified technician.
