The machine is supplied as standard
with two hoses, for connection to a hot
and cold water supply.
Connection to cold water
supply
The machine should be connected to a
water supply in accordance with stand-
ard regulations. The German authorities
do not require it to have a non-return
valve as the washer-extractor has been
constructed to comply with the relevant
valid standard (DIN-Norm).
Connection to a water supply should
be carried out by a qualified plumber
and should incorporate a stopcock with
3/4" thread.
The approx. 1.5 m long 3/8" pressure
hose (blue stripes) should be con-
nected to the stopcock via the 3/4"
threaded union.
This hose is not suitable for connection
to a hot water supply.
Please make sure that the washer sits
correctly in the union.
The connection points are subject to
water pressure. Turn on the stopcock
slowly and check for leaks. Correct the
positioning of the washers and screw
unions if appropriate.
If replacing the inlet hose only use a
hose able to withstand pressure of
up to 70 bar. This also applies to all
fittings used. Miele original parts ful-
fil this condition.
Longer hoses 2.5 or 4.0 m in length are
available as optional extras.
The pressure hose and solenoid inlet
valve are designed for a water flow
pressure of between 1 and 10 bar. At
higher water pressures it is essential to
fit a reducer valve.
There is a minimum flow pressure of 1
bar pressure if 5 litres of water flow into
a suitable container in 15 seconds.
