Installation
Connection to the water supply
Health risk and risk of damage
due to contaminated incoming water.
The quality of the incoming water
must correspond to the drinking wa-
ter specification of the country in
which the washing machine is being
operated.
Always connect the washing machine
to the mains water supply.
The water connection pressure needs to
be between 100 and 1000 kPa. If the
water connection pressure exceeds
1000 kPa, a pressure reducing valve
must be installed.
A stopcock with a ¾ inch threaded
union is required for the connection. If
this is not available, only a qualified in-
staller may connect the washing ma-
chine to the mains water supply.
The washing machine is not suitable
for connection to a hot water supply.
The washing machine must not be
connected to a hot water supply.
Connecting the water inlet hose
Screw the water inlet hose onto the
thread of the water inlet with the nut.
Slowly open the stopcock and check
the connection for leaks.
Correct the position of the seal and
screw thread if necessary.

Maintenance
Only use a genuine Miele hose that has
been pressure tested to withstand at

Damage caused by dirty water.
A filter is located in the open end of
the inlet hose and another in the in-
take point to protect the inlet valve in
the washing machine.
These filters must not be removed.
Hose extension
Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are
available from your Miele Dealer or
Miele as optional extras.
