Plumbing; Connection To The Water Inlet - Miele PG 8052 Operating Instructions Manual

Connection to the water inlet

,
Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher must be connected
to the water supply in accordance
with local and national water authori-
ty regulations.
– If the iron content in the water is too
high, there is a risk of corrosion da-
mage to the machine and its load. If
the chloride content of the water ex-
ceeds 100mg/l, the risk of corrosion
damage to the load will increase
considerably.
– In some areas there may be too
many impurities in the local water
supply. The dishwasher will need to
be connected to a soft water supply
if this is the case.
– This dishwasher is constructed to
comply with German water regula-
tions (DVGW), and may be connec-
ted to a suitable supply without a
non-return valve if national regula-
tions permit.
– The water pressure (flow rate) must
be a minimum of 0.5 bar (50 kPa).
If the water pressure (flow rate) is be-
low 2 bar (200 kPa), the filling time is
automatically extended.
The max. permitted static pressure is
10 bar (1000 kPa).
If the water pressure is not in the ran-
ge of 0.5 to 10 bar (50-1000 kPa) the
p / 6 indicator light may come on
and the fault code "F2E" show in the
display. Please contact the Miele
Service Department.
– The dishwasher is supplied as stan-
dard for connection to a cold or a
hot water supply up to a max. tempe-
rature of 65 °C.
– A stopcock with 3/4 inch male thread
must be provided on site. It should
be easily accessible so that the
water supply can be turned off when
the appliance is not in use.
– The DN 10 inlet hose is approx.
1.7 m long terminating in a 3/4 inch
female thread. A 1.5 metre long flexi-
ble metal extension hose, pressure
tested to 140 bar, is available as an
optional accessory if required. On no
account may the inlet filter be remo-
ved.
,
The inlet hose must not be shor-
tened or damaged in any way (see
illustration).
