Warning and safety instructions

supply. If in any doubt, consult a quali-

fied electrician.

Read the operating instructions be-

fore using this machine for the first

time. They contain important infor-

mation about the safety, use and

maintenance of the machine. This

way you will avoid the risk of acci-

dents and damage to the machine.

Keep these operating instructions in

a safe place and ensure that new

users are familiar with the content.

Pass them on to any future owner of

the machine.

The electrical safety of this appli-

ance can only be guaranteed when

continuity is complete between the ma-

chine and an effective earthing system

which complies with local and national

regulations. It is most important that this

basic safety requirement is regularly

tested by a qualified electrician.

The manufacturer cannot be held liable

for the consequences of an inadequate

earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Do not connect the appliance to

the mains electricity supply by an

extension lead. Extension leads do not

guarantee the required safety of the

appliance (e.g. danger of overheating).

Correct usage

Only use the washing machine to

wash items which are specified by

the manufacturer to be machine-wash-

able on the wash-care label, and tex-

tiles composed of hand-washable wool

or wool blend fabrics as well as satin,

lace, silk and other hand-washable gar-

ments.

Any other applications may be danger-

ous. The manufacturer is not liable for

damage resulting from improper use or

operation.

The machine is built in accordance

with current safety requirements.

Unauthorised repairs could result in un-

foreseen dangers for the user, for which

the manufacturer cannot accept liabilty.

Repairs should only be undertaken by a

Miele approved engineer.

Ensure current is not supplied to the

appliance while maintenance or repair

work is being carried out.

This appliance should not be oper-

ated by children. Supervise its use

by the elderly or infirm.

The machine is only completely

isolated from the electricity supply

when:

Technical safety

Before setting up the machine,

check it for any externally visible

damage. Do not install and use a dam-

aged machine.

– it is switched off at the mains, or

– the mains fuse is withdrawn.

Before connecting the machine,

removed (see section on "Installation").

Faulty components must only be

replaced by genuine Miele original

spare parts. Only when these parts are

fitted can the safety standards of the

machine be guaranteed.

During spinning, a transit fitting which is

still in place may result in damage to

both the machine and adjacent furni-

ture or appliances.

Turn off the stopcock if the ma-

chine is to be left for any length of

time (e.g. holiday), especially if there is

no floor drain (gully) in the immediate

vicinity.

If the connection cable is damaged

it must be replaced by a special

Miele cable.

In countries where there are areas

which may be subject to infestation

by cockroaches or other vermin, pay

drain off quickly enough to prevent the

sink from overflowing.

Make sure the drain hose is secure, so

that the force of the water flowing out of

the hose does not dislodge it. Other-

wise this will result in flooding.

Use

Take care to ensure that foreign ob-

jects (e.g. nails, needles, coins,

such usage subject to a risk assess-

ment of the installation being carried

out by a suitably qualified engineer.

paper clips, etc.) do not find their way

into the machine with the washing (e.g.

in pockets). These may damage com-

ponents of the machine (e.g. suds con-

tainer, drum), which in turn can result in

damage to the washing.

Warning and safety instructions

If the correct amount of detergent

is dispensed, the machine should

not need to be descaled. If, however,

you do wish to descale the machine

only use proprietary non-corrosive

descaling agents and strictly observe

the manufacturer’s instructions given on

the packaging. If in doubt, contact the

Miele Customer Service Dept. or your

Miele Dealer.

Accessories

Accessory parts may only be fitted

when expressly approved by Miele.

If other parts are used, guarantee, per-

formance and product liability claims

may be invalidated.

Disposal of your old machine

Before discarding an old machine

unplug it. Render the plug useless.

Cut off the cable directly behind the ap-

pliance to prevent misuse. This should

be done by a competent person.

Textiles which have been

pre-treated in solvent-based clean-

ing agents must be thoroughly rinsed in

clean water before being washed in the

machine.

Never use solvent-based cleaning

agents in this machine, as this may

result in damage to component parts

and create toxic fumes. Such deter-

gents also pose a fire and explosion

hazard.

Only use dyes specified by the

manufacturer as being suitable for

use in a domestic washing machine. Al-

ways observe the manufacturer's in-

structions carefully.

Colour run and dye removers con-

tain sulphur compounds which can

cause damage such as corrosion. Do

not use these products in this machine.

Always make sure the drum is sta-

tionary before reaching in to re-

move laundry. Reaching into a moving

drum is extremely dangerous.

age are determined by the size of the

load. Load to the maximum recom-

mended for the programme selected.

– Do not exceed the amounts of deter-

gent which may be recommended by

the manufacturer on the packaging.

– Programme durations can vary con-

siderably due to the automatic load

adjustment feature. Depending on

the amount of laundry, the main wash

may be shortened and one rinse

omitted.

– Reduce the amounts of detergent

with smaller loads, (e.g. with a half

load, approx. one third less deter-

gent).

– Select the highest suitable spin

speed in the wash programme when

tumble drying afterwards.

– Use the Mixed Wash programme or

the Quick Wash programme for

smaller amounts of laundry.

– To save energy wash normally and

lightly soiled laundry at lower tem-

peratures. The 95°C Cottons

programme is probably only needed

in exceptional circumstances, e.g.

for oil based stains or where a very

hot wash is required.

– A main wash (programme without

pre-wash) is sufficient to clean nor-

mally soiled laundry.

– By using the additional option Soak

for heavily soiled laundry you can se-

lect a lower temperature in the main

wash.

– Use the additional option Soak in-

stead of Pre-wash with heavily soiled

laundry.

If Soak is followed immediately by a

main wash the same suds are used.

Before using for the first time

Water hardness reminder

Before using the machine for the first

time ensure that it is correctly in-

stalled and connected. See the rele-

vant section under "Installation".

Also check that the fluff filter is se-

curely tightened to prevent the risk

of water leaks during use.

The amount of detergent required will

depend on various factors including

water hardness. The dial in the deter-

gent dispenser can be set as a water

hardness reminder.

For safety reasons spinning is not pos-

sible until the machine has been pre-

pared for using for the first time. To acti-

vate the spinning function you must run

a wash programme without laundry.

This also activates the ball valve. The

ball valve prevents detergent escaping

from the suds container into the sump

during a programme, thus making max-

imum use of the detergent.

Proceed as follows:

^ Open the stopcock

^ Remove the yellow lever from behind

the detergent drawer facia panel.

^ Do not load any laundry

^ Add max. ¹/₄of the amount of deter-

gent you would use for a full load to

How to wash correctly

Brief guide

^ Sort the washing by colour and by

care label symbols. Most garments

have a textile care label in the collar

or side seam.

The headings numbered (A,B,C,...)

show the operating sequence and can

be used as a brief guide.

Dark textiles often contain excess dye

and should be washed separately sev-

eral times before being included in a

mixed load. Always wash whites and

coloureds separately.

Before washing

ASort the laundry.

Delicate textiles should be washed sep-

arately in a delicates programme (use a

washing bag where appropriate).

– Curtains:

Remove lead weights and strips or

place in a laundry bag.

– Underwiring and collar stiffeners:

Any loose wiring in bras, shirt collar

stiffeners, etc. should be removed or

sewn in.

– Knitted garments, trousers and

jeans, T-shirts and sweat shirts:

Turn inside out, if recommended by

the manufacturer.

^ Empty all pockets.

Foreign objects (e.g. nails, coins,

paper clips, etc.) can cause dam-

age to textiles and components in

the machine.

– Close any zips, fasten hooks and

eyes etc. before washing.

– Fasten duvet covers to prevent

smaller items rolling up inside them.

^ Badly soiled areas, e.g. collars and

cuffs, and water soluble stains can

be pre-treated with bar soap, liquid

detergent or detergent mixed into a

solution or paste.

Do not wash any items in this ma-

chine which are specified by the

manufacturer as non-machine

washable on the care label. (h

symbol)

With particularly stubborn stains ask

your dry cleaner for advice.

Do not use solvent-based cleaning

agents in this machine.

DLoad the drum.

To start a programme

H Select the basic programme

Unfold laundry and load loosely in the

drum. To achieve best results it is ad-

visable to make up mixed loads con-

sisting of both large and small items.

This improves the washing effect and

helps distribute the load evenly to keep

the machine stable and reduce the

noise level during spinning.

Overloading reduces the wash result

and causes more creasing.

Adding detergent

All modern detergents produced for

automatic washing machines are suit-

able, including liquid, compact (con-

centrated), tablets, liquid tablets and

special application detergents. Use dis-

pensing aids, e.g. balls, if these are

supplied with the detergent. Tablets are

suitable for full loads, but note that it

may be impractical to reduce tablets by

proportion to suit smaller loads.

It is important to dispense the

correct amount, because . . .

Woollens and knitwear containing wool

mixtures and hand-washable garments

should be washed using a detergent

specifically designed for washing

woollens.

. . . too little has the following results:

– Laundry will not be properly clean

and will in time become grey and

hard to the touch.

Silk should be washed using a liquid

detergent specifically designed for

washing woollens. Do not use biologi-

cal detergents on silk as the enzymes

may damage the silk!

– Greasy particles cling to the laundry.

– Limescale deposits on the heater el-

ements.

Add detergent according to the amount

recommended on the packaging. The

right amount to dispense will depend

on the following:

. . . too much results in the following:

– Excessive foam.

– Low level of agitation.

– The quantity of laundry.

– Poor washing, rinsing and spinning

results.

– The soiling level of the laundry.

Lightly soiled

No visible dirt or stains. Possibly

slight body odour.

– High water consumption (an addi-

tional rinse cycle will automatically

switch in).

Normally soiled

Visibly dirty and/or just a few slight

stains.

– Burdening the environment.

Heavily soiled

Stains and soiling clearly visible.

– The water hardness level

Check with your local water supplier

if you do not know the water hard-

ness level in your area.

Adding detergent

Water softeners

A water softener can be used to cut

down on the use of detergents in ex-

tremely hard water areas. Dispense ac-

cording to the amount specified on the

packaging. First add detergent and

then the water softener.

Dispense detergent as specified for

soft water areas.

Miele do not recommend connecting

the machine to a household water soft-

ener.

If you wash using several components

(e.g. special application detergents),

we recommend always dispensing the

agents into compartment j in the fol-

lowing order:

i = Compartment for pre-wash.

This compartment is also used

for starch formulations when

starching separately.

1. Detergent

j = Compartment main wash

2. Water softener

3. Stain remover

p = Compartment fabric conditioner

Water is taken in through compartment

i in the pre-wash.

This way the agents are distributed

more efficiently.

Water is taken in through compartment

j in the main wash. If the capacity of

compartment j is insufficient for the

amount of detergent needed for a

COTTONS programme (e.g. in very

hard water areas), the machine can be

programmed so that water and deter-

gent can also be taken into the main

wash through compartment i , see

"Programmable functions", "Activating

compartment i".

Fabric conditioners,

texturisers, liquid starch

Fabric conditioners make garments soft

and fluffy to handle and help prevent

static cling when tumble drying.

Texturisers are synthetic starch formula-

tions and give body to items e.g. shirts,

tablecloths and bed linen.

Starch gives body to items of washing.

^ Dispense according to the amount

specified on the packaging.

Adding detergent

Automatic fabric conditioners,

texturisers, or liquid starch

Separate fabric conditioner or

texturiser

^ Open the lid of compartment p.

^ Add fabric conditioner or texturiser to

the compartment p.

^ Press the Starch touch pad

^ Select a spin speed.

^ Press the START touch pad.

Starching separately

^ Measure and prepare starch in ac-

cordance with the manufacturer's in-

structions.

^ Add the starch to compartment i.

^ Press the Starch touch pad.

^ Select a spin speed.

^ Add the fabric conditioner, texturiser

or liquid starch. Do not exceed the

maximum level mark.

^ Press the START touch pad.

^ Close the compartment lid.

^ Push the drawer back in.

The conditioner, texturiser or liquid

starch is automatically dispensed in the

last rinse. At the end of the programme

there will be a small amount of water

left in the fabric conditioner compart-

ment p.

If starching frequently, clean the dis-

penser compartment and especially

the siphon tube and conditioner

channel regularly. (See section on

Top-up rinse (programmable):

At the end of the main wash additional water flows into the drum, and the suds are cooled slightly. Hot

water might damage plastic drain pipes.

Graduated rinsing:

The suds are cooled at the end of the wash cycle by water flowing in and being pumped away at inter-

vals thereby minimising creasing.

Rinse and interim spin:

There is a spin between the rinses.

Final spin:

The maximum spin speed according to the programme can be selected with the Spin touch pad. In

the programmes Minimum Iron, Delicates, Woollens and Mixed Wash the spin speed is automatically

limited to the above stated maximum spin speed.

Anti-crease, and loosen:

The anti-crease action guards against the tendency for creases to set in if laundry is not removed from

the drum as soon as a programme has finished. There is drum movement twice a minute. The door

can be opened and laundry removed at any time during the anti-crease phase.

need special care, or where extra atten-

tion must be taken in dissolving deter-

gent. This option is already set when

the machine is delivered from the fac-

tory.

The following programmable

functions can be selected:

P1 = Maximum water level

The water level for rinsing is automat-

ically raised to the maximum level

where rinse results are particularly

important.

Option 3

An extra rinse cycle is introduced to the

Cottons programme, e.g. when rinse re-

sults are particularly important.

Effective for the rinses in programmes:

– Cottons

Option 4

– Minimum iron

Is Option 2 plus Option 3, where this

quality of rinse is required.

– Quick Wash

– Mixed wash

P4 = Activating the i

compartment

P2 = Water plus system

For the first 10 seconds of the main

wash cycle water flows in through

compartment i.

The Water plus touch pad offers four

options for increasing the water level

and/or bringing in an extra rinse cy-

cle.

Compartment j may sometimes not

be able to hold the total amount of de-

tergent required:

Option 1

Increases the rinse water level in the

Cottons, Minimum iron, Quick Wash

and Mixed wash programmes, where

for example rinse results are particu-

larly important.

– if the water is very hard (over

3.8 mmol/l, water hardness level IV))

and

– if laundry is heavily soiled.

Compartment i can be used to flush

in the extra detergent for the main

wash.

Programmable functions

P9 = Gentle action

P11 = Memory function

For gentle washing of slightly soiled

items. Drum action is reduced.

If an additional function is selected

for a programme, and/or the spin

speed is altered, the machine stores

these changes in memory at the start

of a programme.

Gentle action can be used with the Cot-

tons, Minimum iron, Quick Wash, Mixed

wash and Starch programmes.

The memory function is active when the

machine is first delivered, but can be

programmed to be switched off.

If "Gentle action" has been pro-

grammed, every wash cycle in these

programmes is carried out with gentle

action rhythm.

See the following pages for how to

programme the programmable func-

tions.

P10 = Top-up rinse for Cottons

At the end of the main wash addi-

tional water flows into the drum to

cool the suds down.

Hot suds can damage plastic drain-

age pipes.

Top-up rinse takes place when temper-

atures of 95°C, 80°C and 70°C are se-

lected.

Top-up rinse should be activated:

– to prevent the danger of scalding if

the drain hose is hooked over the

edge of a sink or basin.

– where the drainage pipes do not

comply with DIN 1986."

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the washing machine Extra cleaning

^ Clean the casing with a mild

non-abrasive detergent or soap and

water. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Carrying out a hot wash (70°C or

above) with powder detergent approx.

once every six weeks will help prevent

deposits building up in the machine.

These can occur when washing is

mainly done at low temperatures, and

lead to unpleasant smells. If you have

no reason to wash laundry occasionally

at this high temperature, then carry out

a 95°C COTTONS programme as a

cleaning cycle with powder detergent,

but not laundry, at regular intervals.

^ Clean the facia panel and lid with a

damp cloth and dry with a soft cloth.

^ The drum can be cleaned using a

suitable proprietary stainless steel

cleaner.

Do not use solvents, abrasive

cleaners, glass cleaners or all-pur-

pose cleaners. These might cause

damage to the plastic surfaces be-

cause of the chemicals they contain.

The washing machine must not be

hosed down.

E-cloth

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from

the Miele UK Spare Parts Department,

Part Number 98013530, which is suit-

able for cleaning surfaces such as

stainless steel, glass, plastic and

chrome without the use of chemicals.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the detergent dis-

penser drawer

^ Pull out the detergent dispenser

drawer until a resistance is felt.

^ Remove the siphon from compart-

ment p.

Wash under running warm water and

replace.

Over time, detergent residue can build

up in the water jets in the top of the de-

tergent drawer housing.

^ Press down the red release catch

and at the same time pull the drawer

right out of the machine.

^ Before replacing the detergent

drawer, use a bottle brush or similar

to clean them out.

^ Clean the dispenser compartments

and conditioner channel.

Regularly remove any detergent resi-

dues.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the fluff (drain) filter

and pump

Check the fluff (drain) filter initially after

3-4 washes to ascertain how often it is

likely to require cleaning.

With normal cleaning approx. 2 litres of

water run out.

If the drain outlet is clogged, more wa-

ter will be retained in the machine (up

to 25 litres).

Caution: If laundry has been washed

at a high temperature, water drain-

ing out of the machine will still be

hot.

^ Open the flap.

^ Place a suitable container under the

drain fixture.

Take the (yellow) filter flap opener from

behind the detergent drawer facia

panel, (see illustration above).

^ Turn the fluff filter lid round 2-3 times.

Do not take it right out.

With large volumes of water, when the

container is full, screw the fluff filter

back into position, and empty the dish

before repeating the procedure.

^ Open the door.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Cleaning and care

^ Clean the inside of the fluff filter hous-

ing.

Remove any deposits of limescale and

detergent or foreign objects from the

thread of the filter housing and filter unit

as they can cause water to leak.

Limescale deposits are often a sign of

using too little detergent.

^ Put the fluff filter back in place and

secure it.

Make sure the fluff filter is securely

tightened. Otherwise there is a risk

of water leakage during use.

^ Once the flow of water ceases, re-

move the fluff filter completely.

After cleaning

^ Pour approx. 2 litres of water into the

detergent dispenser compartment

j to reactivate the ball valve which

keeps detergent in circulation in the

suds.

^ Clean the fluff filter thoroughly.

^ Remove any foreign objects (e.g.

buttons, coins, etc.) and fluff.

^ Turn the impeller by hand to make

sure it rotates freely. Any foreign ob-

jects causing an obstruction should

be removed.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the filter in the water

inlet

^ First turn off the stopcock.

^ Unscrew the threaded union connect-

ing the free end of the inlet hose to

the stopcock.

The washing machine has a filter to

protect the water inlet valve.

^ Remove rubber seal a from the re-

cess.

The accessible filter in the union in the

open end of the inlet hose should be

checked every six months, or more of-

ten if there are frequent interruptions to

the external water supply.

^ Using pointed pliers, take hold of the

plastic filter bar, remove the filter b

and clean.

^ Put the filter and seal back in the re-

verse order and reconnect the hose.

Turn on the stopcock and check the

connection is watertight. If water drips

out, tighten the connection.

Never forget to put the filter back in

place after cleaning it.

Installation

Installation surface

Installation

A concrete floor is the most suitable in-

stallation surface for a washing ma-

chine, being far less prone to vibration

during the spin cycle than wooden

floorboards or a carpeted surface.

Lift the machine from its packaging

base and move it to its site. Please

note:

^ Do not lift the machine by the drum

door.

Please note the following points:

^ Ensure that the machine feet and the

floor are dry to prevent the machine

from slipping during the spin cycle.

^ The machine must be level and se-

curely positioned.

^ To avoid vibrations during spinning,

the machine should not be installed

on soft floor coverings.

Removing the transit fitting

^ If installing on a wooden joist floor, we

recommend a plywood base at least

30 mm thick, 590 x 520 mm wide.

The base should span several joists

and be bolted to the joists, not only to

the floorboards. Check for the pres-

ence of pipes and cables first.

The most stable part of the floor is

usually in the corner.

chine is standing level.

Incorrect installation may increase elec-

tricity and water consumption and may

cause the machine to move about.

^ Hold foot 1 securely using a pipe

wrench and using a screwdriver turn

the counternut 2 clockwise until it sits

firmly up against the housing.

The four adjustable screw feet are used

to level the machine. All four feet are

screwed in when the machine is deliv-

ered.

Connection to water supply

Fitting

The machine should be connected to a The Miele Waterproof-System con-

mains water supply in accordance with

standard regulations. In Germany the

washing machine is not required to

have a non-return valve as it has been

designed to comply with the relevant

German DIN standard.

nected between the stopcock and the

machine offers the safest protection

against water leaks.

For the Waterproof system to function

correctly, it may only be fitted in the po-

sitions shown (see illustrations).

The machine is designed to operate

with a minimum water pressure of 1 bar.

There is a minimum flow pressure of 1

bar if 5 litres of water flow into a suit-

able container in 15 seconds. The static

water pressure must not exceed 10 bar.

If it is higher than 10 bar it is essential

to fit a reducer valve.

Connection to the mains water supply

should incorporate a mains stopcock

with ³/₄'' thread. The stopcock should

be fitted by a qualified plumber.

Installation

Protection in the event of a leaking

machine.

The connection point is subject to

mains water pressure. Turn on the

stopcock slowly and check for leaks.

Correct the position of the washer

and union if appropriate.

Any leaking water is collected in a

sump in the base of the appliance. A

float switch switches the safety valve off

electrically. No more water will flow in.

water inlet hose

The "Waterproof system" is NOT suit-

able for connection to a hot water

supply.

Leaking water is fed into the sump

through the protective covering which

surrounds the inlet hose as a "second

skin". The float switch turns off the water

supply.

Maintenance

N.B. If you need to unscrew the "Water-

proof system" unit from the mains water

supply it is essential that the machine is

first disconnected from the electricity

supply.

The protective sleeve of the hose must

not be damaged (see illustration).

A "Waterproof system" with a hose

length of approx. 4.5 metres is available

as an optional extra from your Miele

dealer or the Spare Parts Department.

Only use a genuine Miele "Waterproof

system" able to withstand pressure of

up to 70 bar, should you ever need a

replacement.

Function

To protect the filters in the water inlet

valves the dirt filter in the "Water-

proof system" connection must not

be removed.

At the heart of this leak protection sys-

tem there is an electric safety valve,

which works like an automatic stop-

cock.

Installation

Connection to the drainage

system

Drain hose connection:

1. Direct into a sink or basin:

Please note the following

The machine drains via a drain pump

with a delivery head of 1 metre.

– Hook the hose over the edge and se-

cure.

The drain hose is 1.5 m long. It must

not be kinked as this restricts drainage.

The swivel elbow at the end of the hose

can be turned in either direction, or can

be detached if required, with a sharp

twist and pull.

– Make sure that the water can drain

away freely without hindrance. Other-

wise there is a risk of water overflow-

ing or of some of the drained water

being sucked back into the machine.

2. Connected securely to a plastic drain

pipe with a rubber nipple. There is no

need to use a non-return valve.

3. Connected securely to a standpipe.

4. Connected securely to a floor gully.

If required, the drain hose can be ex-

tended to a length of 5 m. The neces-

sary parts can be purchased from the

Miele Spare Parts Department, or your

Miele dealer.

For a delivery head of more than 1 m

(up to a maximum of 1.8 m) a second

Duo-drain pump is available with the

corresponding conversion kit from the

Miele Spare Parts Department or your

Miele dealer.

national and local safety regulations.

non-rewireable plug and the socket out-

lets are not suitable for the plug sup-

plied or if the existing plug needs to be

replaced by a new one, the old plug will

need to be cut off and an appropriate

plug fitted. The fuse carrier and the

fuse should be removed from the old

plug and disposed of.

Ensure power is not supplied to the ap-

pliance while installation work is being

carried out.

The appliance is supplied with a mains

cable with moulded plug for connection

to a 230-240V mains supply. The volt-

age, rated load and fuse rating are

given on the data plate. Please ensure

these match the household mains sup-

ply.

The plug cut from the cable should then

be disposed of and on no account be

inserted into any socket elsewhere in

the house (electric shock hazard).

The fuse cover must be refitted when

changing the fuse, and if the fuse cover

is lost, the plug must not be used until a

suitable replacement is obtained. The

colour of the correct replacement cover

is that of the coloured insert in the base

of the plug, or the colour that is em-

bossed in words on the base of the

plug (as applicable to the design of

plug fitted).

Connection should be made via a fused

plug and suitable switched socket

which is easily accessible after installa-

tion.

For extra safety it is advisable to install

a residual current device (RCD), with a

trip current of 30 mA (in accordance

with DIN VDE 0664, VDE 0100, section

739).

Do not connect via an extension lead.

Replacement fuses should be ASTA ap-

proved to BS 1362 and have the cor-

rect rating. Replacement fuse covers

may be purchased from your local elec-

trical supplier or Service agent.
