Problem Solving; Cleaning The Water Inlet Filter - Miele PG 8052 Operating Instructions Manual

Cleaning the water inlet filter

A filter is incorporated in the screw con-
nection of the valve on the water inlet
hose. The filter must be cleaned when
dirty, otherwise insufficient water flows
into the wash cabinet.
,
The plastic housing of the water
connection contains an electrical
component. It must not be dipped in
water.
Recommendation
If the mains water contains a large
number of insoluble substances, we re-
commend fitting a large-area filter in the
connection between the stopcock and
the water inlet hose threaded union.
This filter is available from your Miele
dealer or the Miele Spare Parts Depart-
ment.
Cleaning the filter:
^ Disconnect the dishwasher from the
mains supply (switch off at the mains
socket, pull out the plug, switch off
the appropriate circuit at the fuse box
or withdraw the mains fuse).
^ Close the stopcock.
^ Unscrew the inlet hose.

Problem solving

^ Carefully remove the seal.
^ Withdraw the filter using pointed
pliers.
^ Rinse clean under running water.
^ Replace the filter and seal, making
sure they are sitting correctly.
^ Reconnect the inlet hose to the stop-
cock, making sure it goes on correct-
ly and is not cross-threaded.
^ Turn on the stopcock gradually to
test for leaks. If there is a leak, the in-
let hose might not be on securely, or
it may have been screwed on at an
angle. Unscrew and reconnect it to
the water inlet valve correctly.
