Electrical Connection
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
localcodesandordinancesandthelatesteditionoftheNationalElectricalCode,ANSI/NFPA70.
B
WARNING
ÒImproper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you
are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
ÒDo not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
ÒBe sure that the power cord is always accessible by the user after the
appliance is installed.
ÒNever use an extension cord or adapter to connect the appliance to the
electrical power due to the risk of electric shock and/or fire.
ÒIt is the personal responsibility and obligation of the appliance owner to
provide a proper and grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
ÒNever use a damaged power cord since there is a risk of electric shock and/
or fire.
ÒThe damaged power cord must be replaced by a qualified electrician as soon
as possible.
ÒElectrical supply voltage must conform to the voltage specifications (208-
240V, 60Hz) located on the appliance. For this purpose, a junction box (as
seen in picture below) must be obtained. Junction box is supplied with
Blomberg Clothes Dryer (model no: DV 16540 NBL00) and it works as a
voltage converter from 110/120V to 208/240V between the mains and
appliance.
ÒOnly one appliance must be connected to a properly grounded individual
branch circuit outlet.
ÒBe sure to unplug the power cable before attempting maintenance or
cleaning of your appliance to minimize the risk of electric shock. Always
unplug the cable by grasping the plug, not the cord.
ÒDo not use wet hands when plugging/unplugging the power cable.

WARNING
ÒBe sure that there are rubber seals located on the hose connections. These
seals and adjustable bolts ensure a safe connection without leaking. After the
water connection is done, turn on both water faucets slowly and completely
to check any water leaks.
ÒBe sure that water supply hoses are not crushed and they have no kinking,
bulges or cuts before the water connection.
The water pressure must be between 15-145 psi (1-10 bar) for the proper operation of this washer.
1 bar corresponds to more than 2.1 US gallons (8 liters) per minute flow rate with a fully open faucet.
Water inlet hoses and valves should withstand a water pressure of 145 psi (10 bar) at maximum. If the
pressure is higher than 145 psi, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed before the water inlet.
If the water pressure is lower than 15 psi (1 bar), water fill time may extend or water inlet valve may
shut off completely.
