Connection to water supply

The machine should be connected to a

mains water supply in accordance with

standard regulations. The German auth-

orities do not require it to have a non-re-

turn valve as the washing machine has

been designed to comply with DVGW

regulations (German Association of

Gas and Water Engineers, see data

plate).

Connection to a mains water supply

should be carried out by a qualified

plumber and should incorporate a

mains stopcock with 3/4" thread.

The 1.5 m long 3/8" pressure hose

should be connected to the stopcock

via the 3/4" threaded union.

This hose is not suitable for use for con-

nection to a hot water supply. Please

make sure that the washer sits correctly

in the union.

If connection is to be made to a stop-

cock with a short 3/4" thread, the extra

washers enclosed should also be in-

serted in the inlet hose union to com-

pensate.

The connection points are subject to

mains water pressure. Turn on the stop-

cock slowly and check for leaks. Cor-

rect the positioning of the washers and

screw unions if appropriate.

If replacing the inlet hose only use a

hose able to withstand pressure of up

to 70 bar. This also applies to all fittings

used. Miele original parts fulfil this con-

dition.

Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are

available as optional extras.

The pressure hose and solenoid inlet

valve are designed for a water flow

pressure of between 1 and 10 bar. At

higher water pressures it is essential to

fit a reducer valve.

There is a minimum flow pressure of 1

bar pressure if 5 litres of water flow into

a suitable container in 15 seconds.

The two dirt filters, one in the open

end of the inlet hose, one at the inlet

point in the solenoid valve must not

be removed.
