As long as your dishwasher has been
installed correctly, the Miele Waterproof
anti-leak system will protect you from
water damage throughout its lifetime.

Water in the dishwasher must
not be used as drinking water.
- The machine must be connected to
the water supply in strict accordance
with current local and national
requirements ( e.g. Plumbing Code of
Australia (PCA)).
- 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
corrosion 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
corrosion 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.

- The water pressure (flow pressure at
the connection point) must be
between 50 and 1000 kPa (0.5 and
10 bar).
If the water pressure is lower than
this, the fault message
will appear in the display (see
"Problem solving guide").
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducing valve must be
fitted.

- A tap with a /

be provided on site. It should be
easily accessible so that the water
supply can be turned off when the
dishwasher is not in use.
- The DN 10 inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m
long terminating in a
thread. Under no circumstances must
the inlet filter or the flow regulator in
the connection be removed.
This appliance must be installed
according to AS/NZS 3500.1 and AS/
NZS 3500.2. This dishwasher has been
supplied separately with a separate
backflow prevention device (dual check
valve).
The dual check valve supplied
separately with this product must be
installed between the tap and the water
inlet hose. Screw the dual check valve
onto the tap. Then screw the water inlet
hose with the water protection system
onto the thread of the dual check valve.
Turn on the the tap gradually to test for
leaks. If there is a leak, the connection
might not be on securely, or it may have
been screwed on at an angle. Unscrew
and reconnect the water correctly
before tightening it.
