The water protection system
The Miele water protection system pro-
tects all parts of the washer-dryer from
water damage.
The system mainly consists of the fol-
lowing components:
– the inlet hose
– the electronic unit and drainage and
overflow protection
– the drain hose
Inlet hose
– Protects the safety valve from burst-
ing
The inlet hose can withstand pres-
sure greater than 14,000 kPa.
– The inlet hose has a protective
sleeve.
The inlet hose has metal braiding as
a "second skin" to protect against
damage.
Electronic unit and casing
– Sump
Any leaking water is collected in a
sump in the base of the washer-
dryer. A float switches off the water
inlet valves, preventing any more wa-
ter from flowing into the machine and
water in the suds container is
pumped away.
– Overflow protection
This prevents the washer-dryer tak-
ing in too much water. If the water
level exceeds a certain level, the
drain pump switches in and pumps
the excess water away in a controlled
way.
Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a ventila-
tion system which prevents the washer-
dryer from being emptied completely.
