The Miele Waterproof system

Provided your dishwasher has been in-
stalled correctly, the Miele Waterproof
system will provide extensive protection
against water damage throughout its
lifetime.

Water intake

Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
– The dishwasher must be connected
to the water supply in strict accor-
dance with current local and national
water authority regulations.
– The water used must at least comply
with national regulations for drinking
water quality.
If the water supply has a high iron
content, there is a danger of corro-
sion occurring on items being
cleaned in the dishwasher, as well as
the machine itself.
If the chloride content of the water
exceeds 100 mg/L, the risk of corro-
sion to items being cleaned in the
dishwasher will be further increased.
– In certain regions (e.g., mountainous
regions), the water composition may
cause precipitates to form, requiring
the use of softened water for the
dishwasher.
– A backflow preventer is not required;
the dishwasher corresponds with the
applicable standards for the protec-
