Connection Valve - Miele DG 2661 Operating And Installation Instructions

Cleaning and Care

Connection valve

If the steam generator becomes difficult
to insert and remove or if the fault
message F20 appears, the connection
valve needs to be lubricated.
^ Lubricate the connection valve
regularly with a very small amount of
the supplied silicone grease, see
"Accessories". Leave the valve on the
connector while doing so.
,
Take care when using silicone
grease :
- Remove any silicone grease from
your skin by washing with soap and
water.
- If silicone gets into the eyes flush
with plenty of clean water.
- If silicone is swallowed seek
medical attention.

^ If the connection valve becomes
brittle, dried out or if a lot of water
collects at the bottom of the steam
connector niche, the valve needs to
be replaced.
A valve can be purchased from Miele.
When lubricating the valve only use
the silicone grease supplied. Never
use margarine, oil, or any other
grease or fat on the valve, they will
cause deterioration.
