The stainless steel hose must only be
replaced by an original Miele spare
part. The food-grade, stainless steel
hose is available to order from the
Miele webshop, from the Miele
Customer Service Department or
from your local Miele dealer.
A stopcock must be provided between
the stainless steel hose and the mains
water supply to ensure that the water
supply can be cut off if necessary.
Make sure that the stopcock is still
accessible after the refrigeration
appliance has been installed.
The stainless steel hose is 2 m long and
is already installed on the refrigeration
appliance when it is delivered.
Connecting the refrigeration appliance
to the water supply
By this time, the installation niche
should already have been prepared so
that the refrigeration appliance needs
only to be pushed into it.
When doing so, make sure that the
stainless steel hose is not kinked or
damaged.
Position the refrigeration appliance
slightly in front of the installation
niche so that the stopcock can still be
accessed.
The stainless steel hose for the
refrigeration appliance is ready for
connection at the rear of the appliance.
Connect the stainless steel hose to
the stopcock.
Ensure that the threaded union is
properly connected and does not leak.
Slowly open the water supply
stopcock and check the whole water
system for leaks.
The appliance can now be installed in
the niche (see "Installing the
refrigeration appliance" in
"Installation").
