Connection to the water inlet
Water in the dishwasher must not
be used as drinking water.
The dishwasher may be connected to
a cold or hot water supply, max. 60°C.
Connection to a hot water supply
would save energy costs and time.
When connected to a hot water sup-
ply all programme stages which
would otherwise be carried out with
cold water (pre-wash and interim
rinse) as well as the PRE-WASH will
be carried out with hot water.
The inlet hose is approx. 1.5 m long;
a longer hose (4 m) may be bought
from the Miele Spare Parts Dept.
A stopcock with a 3/4" male thread
must be provided on site.
The dishwasher is constructed to
comply with DVGW regulations, and
may be connected to a suitable sup-
ply without an extra non-return valve
provided that national regulations
allow this.
The water pressure (flow rate at the
take-off point) must be between 1.0
and 10 bar pressure.
If the water pressure is too low the
water intake time must be increased
(see chapter “Checking the water
level”).
If the water pressure is too high, a
pressure reducer valve must be fitted.
The water inlet hose must not be
shortened or damaged in any way
(see illustration).
Connect the inlet hose with the “Water-
proof-System” preferably vertically
(use an angle connector if necessary).
If this is not possible, it can be in-
stalled horizontally, but it is essen-
tial that the main body of the “Water-
proof valve” box is above the hose
exit (see illustration). The ’lightning’
power symbol should be above the
water flow ’arrow’.
