Water Intake - Miele WWH 660 Operating Instructions Manual

Water intake

The washing machine should be
connected to a domestic water supply
in accordance with current local and
national safety regulations. The German
authorities do not require it to have a
non-return valve as the washing
machine has been designed to comply
with DIN regulations.
The flow pressure must be at least
14.5psi/100 kPa and must not exceed
an overpressure of 145 psi/1,000 kPa. If
it is higher than 145 psi/1,000 kPa, a
pressure reduction valve must be
installed.
For the connection, a water tap with a
¾" screw thread is required. If not
available, only a qualified installer may
connect the washing machine to the
water supply.

The connection points are
subject to water supply pressure.
Turn on the tap slowly and check for
leaks. Correct the position of the seal
and union if necessary.
Installation and connection
Maintenance
Only use a genuine Miele hose that has
been tested to withstand pressure of
over 1,015.26 psi/7,000 kPa should you
ever need a replacement.
A filter is located in the open end of
the inlet hose and another in the
intake point to protect the inlet valve.
Neither filter may be removed.
Hose extension
Longer hoses of 2.5 m or 4.0 m in
length are available from your Miele
dealer or Miele Technical Service as
optional accessories.
