Notes for the installer
To ensure the machine is correctly con-
nected please observe the installation plan
and the installation instructions supplied with
the machine.
See the installation diagram supplied for in-
structions on connection to the water supply
and for drainage.
The inlet pressure hoses supplied with the
machine must be used for connection to the
water supply.
To ensure the hot water inlet hose (marked
90°C) lasts for many years it is advised not
to use it on a hot water connection supplying
water hotter than 70°C.
If replacing an inlet hose only use a hose
able to withstand a burst pressure of at least
70 bar and a temperature of 90°C. This also
applies to all connection parts.
Miele "Original" spare parts meet this re-
quirement.
A water pressure flow rate of at least 1 bar,
maximum 10 bar is essential to ensure the
smooth operation of this machine.
Water taken into the machine must not ex-
ceed a temperature of 70°C.
