Clean the water intake filters

Filters are incorporated into the water inlet connection on the hose to
protect the water inlet valve. If these filters get dirty they must be
cleaned as otherwise too little water will flow into the wash cabinet.
 The plastic housing on the water inlet valve contains an
electrical component. It must not be immersed in water.
Disconnect the machine from the power supply (switch the machine

off, unplug it, or disconnect or disable the breaker).
Close the faucet.

Unscrew the water intake valve.

Take the sealing washer out of the screw connection.

Pull the filter out using combination or pointed pliers.

Clean the filter or replace it if necessary.

Replace the filter and seal, making sure they are sitting correctly.

Screw the water intake valve onto the faucet. Ensure that the screw

connection goes on straight and not cross-threaded.
Open the faucet. If water leaks out, the screw connection may not

be connected securely or it may have been screwed on at an angle.
Unscrew and reconnect the water intake valve correctly.
If the water contains a high level of insoluble components, a large-
surface filter can be installed between the faucet and the water inlet
hose.
The large-surface filter is available from Miele Service.
